Sunset Golf Course
About
Located in Longmont, the nine-hole, municipal Sunset Golf Course is a great, affordable option for beginners and families. Opened in 1924, it is one of Colorado's oldest golf courses. Although experienced golfers may not find it challenging enough, the course provides an excellent spot to practice your short game and it is definitely one of the most scenic courses in the area with beautiful views of Long's Peak. The par-68 course covers 5,966 yards from its 18-hole longest tees. The terrain of Sunset Golf Course is quite hilly and the tree-lined fairways are very narrow. No water hazards come into play but the course is well-bunkered. The signature hole is the par-4 fourth hole.

Our Favorite Short Track!
Sunset is a short, but fairly challenging inner-city course. A lot of mature cottonwood trees will force you to keep it on the short grass. Greens are in excellent, early-season shape. Tee boxes need a little help, but they'll get there soon. Try it, you'll be surprised by Sunset!

Great Front Range views
Longs Peak on #1. Pikes Peak on #3.
Really a nice course tucked into an historic residential section. One of our favorites.
One draw back- some if the golfers don’t understand golf etiquette and playing quickly. Seemed like they went slower when they saw us waiting. Rough looking group not very good golfers.

Course conditions have certainly improved
I’ve seen this course in pretty rough shape before, but was pleasantly surprised by how good things looked this last time. I don’t often play here, unless I’m playing with a beginner golfer, or just really in need to play a quick 9. This was the 2nd time I took my mom so that she can continue learning the game and improving, and this is a great course for that. We had an awesome time!
