Cherry Creek Country Club is one of Denver’s most refined private club experiences — combining championship golf, luxury amenities, and a highly polished member culture just minutes from Cherry Creek North.
At the heart of the club is the Jack Nicklaus Signature Course, a thoughtfully designed championship layout that balances strategic play with pristine conditioning. Nicklaus incorporated five sets of tees plus three combo tee options, allowing the course to range from approximately 4,981 yards to 7,450 yards. Water comes into play on nine holes, and the routing rewards intelligent course management rather than brute strength.
A defining design feature is the presence of Nicklaus’ signature risk-reward elements — including strategic fairway bunkering and subtle “speed slot” contours that reward well-placed drives with additional roll. Greens are firm, fast, and immaculately maintained, and the club has historically been recognized for elite conditioning and overall member experience.
The practice facilities mirror the championship nature of the course, offering expansive range space, short-game areas, and professional instruction programming.
Beyond golf, Cherry Creek Country Club feels more like a private resort. The clubhouse delivers elevated dining, beautifully appointed locker rooms, spa services, and a robust fitness center. The resort-style pool area features cabanas and social gathering spaces that anchor the club’s summer energy. Tennis and pickleball programming are active and well supported, and the year-round social calendar includes wine dinners, holiday celebrations, and family events.
This is a club where golf excellence and lifestyle luxury coexist seamlessly.
