About Hiwan Golf Club:

Hiwan Golf Club is a private golf and country club located in Evergreen, Colorado, USA. Just twenty-five miles west of downtown Denver, off of Interstate Highway 70, you will find us in the foothills of the Rocky Mountains situated at an elevation of 7,665 feet (2,336 meters), which places us almost half a mile higher than Zermatt, Switzerland. Despite our lofty location, we offer our members challenging emerald green fairways each summer with stunning mountain vistas. Our prime golf season extends from April to October, although Hiwan members have played the course in every month of the year. Hiwan Golf Club was founded in 1962 and has a rich history of golf tradition. Most of the biggest names of golf have played this course, and we hosted the USGA Girls\xe2\x80\x99 Junior in 1965 and the USGA Junior Amateur for boys in 1976. We founded the Colorado Open in 1964 and hosted the tournament until 1991. In 2011, we hosted the prestigious Junior America\'s Cup. In addition to our famed course, we offer an array of amenities including a family-friendly, resort-style pool, fitness center, library, 5 tennis courts, 3 pickleball courts, and a golf simulator. While tee times are not available for non-members except as the guest of a Hiwan member, we encourage you to support one of the many charitable golf events held on Mondays from May to October. Banquet and special-event catering services, however, are available to non-members. After 56 years of successful ownership, the baton was passed to Concert Golf Partners. Our new owners will bring an infusion of capital, fresh ideas, and a commitment to elevating Hiwan as the premier family-friendly country club in the area. Over 2 million dollars of capital improvements are expected to begin as early as fall 2022.
