Experience Colonia Country Club

A Golf Purist’s Dream Built in 1898, this is a golf course where par is a sacred score, even on the calmest days. There are no tricks, and no overabundance of anything—water, trees, or sand—and for this reason, Colonia stands proudly alongside the other dozen pre-1900 architectural masterpieces in the state. It is a mighty mite—a formidable foe of just 6,380 yards. But what it lacks in length, it makes up for in intrigue. Since it is all wrapped in approximately 100 immaculately maintained acres, landing areas are narrow, but it is the greens that are the equalizers at Colonia. They average only 4,500 square feet with mostly subtle undulations. Highlights include No. 4, the toughest ranked hole, and a textbook example of risk/reward. A par-5 of 528 yards, it plays to the largest green on the course, which is guarded by a pond in front. No. 13, Greens are fronted by a wrap-around pond with a stone wall, might be the prettiest. Elsewhere, Colonia is comprised of holes which force golfers to work the ball both ways, and a tremendous mix of long and short par-4s. The charm and friendly competitiveness surrounded by our beautiful grounds only makes us cherish the moments we create together.
