Rodeo Dunes is a new destination golf resort set on the high plains of Colorado. Built on a landscape defined by sand, wind, and wide-open horizons, Rodeo Dunes has opened a Coore & Crenshaw golf course to Founder play – public play begins in 2027 – and will feature multiple world-class golf courses, future short course offerings, practice facilities, lodging, and an integrated residential community. Located less than an hour from Denver International Airport, Denver metro area Fort Collins and Colorado Springs, Rodeo Dunes offers the rare opportunity to help build a world-class golf destination while enjoying access to one of America’s fastest growing and most vibrant regions.
A public golf destination developed by Michael Keiser, co-owner of Sand Valley Resort, Rodeo Dunes is set on over 4,000 acres of towering sand dunes reminiscent of the southwest coast of Ireland, Rodeo Dunes is set to attract golfers from around the U.S. and the world. In addition to the Coore & Crenshaw design, a second course, marking the first 18-hole design by Jimmy Craig (designer of the Commons at Sand Valley) is currently under construction, with some preview play expected in 2027. Public play begins in 2027.
With a rollicking, sandy dunes-cape, welcoming Western hospitality, and inspiring long views of the Rocky Mountains, Rodeo Dunes will introduce guests to a historic - but new to many - region of Colorado.
This is not traditional resort golf. Rodeo Dunes is being created with a focus on walking golf, caddie programs, simplicity, and authenticity, where the experience is driven as much by the people and culture as it is by the golf itself. Rodeo Dunes will become a place where guests return year after year, not just for the amazing golf, but for the feeling of being part of something real. The ownership team believes that great golf destinations are built around authenticity, humility, stewardship of the land, and unforgettable hospitality. Decisions are made with a long-term perspective, prioritizing experience and culture over short-term gains.
Rodeo Dunes joins a growing collection of destinations that includes Sand Valley (WI), Wild Spring Dunes (TX), and Old Shores (FL).
