I was able to play Pole Creek Golf Club for the third time this year this past Saturday. My brother and his family had a weekend at their friends cabin over on Grand Lake and they made the trek over to play a little golf this past weekend. We played the meadow and ranch courses which meant a lot of water a bunch of lost balls but damn it was fun being out on the course! The course was in great shape and the greens were fast and basically un-puttable for my lack of talent with a golf club.
We talked to one of the marshals and he informed us that the club will try to stay open until October 15th weather and snow permitting. I have now golfed Pole Creek every month that they are open and I would have to say September is the best month for golf up in Grand County by far. So head on out and get your golfing in before we are soon covered in snow.

I cut out of work early yesterday, don’t tell the boss, and headed to Pole Creek for a fantastic 9 holes of golf. The greens were playing very well, not too fast, and everything is green and in great shape. We rode the Ridge and ran into another twosome of locals who joined us. Twilight is the best time to go. The rates are low, and the weather was amazing. We watched a rain storm cross a far hill and we were rewarded with a gorgeous summer double rainbow. We checked out the new clubhouse on the 19th hole, WOW! What a change. Pole Creek is partnering with WPLCO and offering our guests 10% off greens fees. Book your Winter Park Lodging and golf together and save $$$.

We’ve got some new info about Bistro 28, the new restaurant at Pole Creek Golf Course. I wonder if it’s named that to imply that it’s the 28th “hole” at 27-hole Pole Creek Golf course. Just speculating. Anyways, Bistro 28 is open daily for breakfast and lunch and as of this week they are now open for dinner from Thursday through Saturday from 5:30 to 9pm.
Their dinner menu looks very enticing, with a Bourbon Rib Eye, Char Sui Duck, Lavender Lamb and other delicious dinners. I can’t wait to try the Creamy Trout, a fresh trout fillet over braised garlic spinach and ch
ardonnay dill beurre blanc, sounds amazing. They’ll also serve prime rib on Friday evenings.
For breakfast, you can get an omelet, a breakfast burrito, or pancakes and for lunch you can choose from Kobe beef sliders, fish tacos, Angus beef burger, a Thai satay wrap and a lot more. Plus, they serve brunch every Sunday with three types of eggs benedicts, waffles and omelets.
There’s more…. they have a full bar and wine list and happy hour from 4-6pm on Mon-Thurs. With all they have to offer, you may end up spending the entire day golfing and enjoying the new Bistro 28 at Pole Creek Golf Course.
Their style is described as ”featuring hearty Colorado cuisine with an Asian influence”. Another appeal to Bistro 28 is that they use locally grown and organic options whenever possible. And, to top it off, the views are claimed to be the best in the entire valley, and though I haven’t been there yet, I believe it. I love taking a scenic drive on County Road 5, where Pole Creek is located, to enjoy lush rolling hills and the panoramic views of the mountains. All in all, I am very impressed with all that I’ve heard and will be trying it out really soon.
Pole Creek Golf Course has a brand new clubhouse plus a new restaurant, Bistro 28, open for breakfast, lunch and a bar menu in the evening. Happy Hour is Monday thru Thursday from 4pm – 6pm. We will try it out and write a review soon. Until then, get over there and let us know what YOU think!
