2026 Colorado Getaways: Logan County

When golfers think of Colorado destinations, mountain resorts often dominate the conversation. But tucked away on the Eastern Plains, Sterling offers a refreshingly different experience—one built around affordable golf, welcoming hospitality, wide-open landscapes, and authentic small-town charm.

The area is home to three distinctly different golf courses, each providing its own reason to make the trip.

Sky Ranch Golf Course, established in 1916, is one of Colorado’s oldest public layouts. Mature trees, subtle elevation changes, water hazards and a timeless design create a classic golf experience that has quietly earned the reputation as one of the state’s hidden gems.

Just a short drive away, Riverview Golf Course offers a contrasting style. Located along the scenic South Platte River corridor, its wide fairways, walkable layout and beautiful natural surroundings make it an ideal choice for golfers looking for a relaxed round filled with wildlife and expansive views.

For those seeking something even more unique, F&H Golf Course delivers a historic nine-hole experience about 30 minutes from Sterling. The course embodies the character of Eastern Plains golf, offering an authentic small-town atmosphere that feels worlds away from Colorado’s busier golf destinations.

Beyond the fairways, Logan County has quietly become one of Colorado’s premier gravel-cycling destinations, boasting more than 1,600 miles of gravel roads. The new Logan County Gravel Adventures Field Guide showcases routes winding through rolling farmland, the South Platte River corridor and historic communities, making Sterling an ideal destination for travelers looking to combine great golf with unforgettable outdoor adventure.
