A chance to live and breathe golf like never before
Very few chances come along that are truly once-in-a-lifetime. Emerald Estates in Windsor, Colorado, is one of them. This exclusive enclave of custom homesites is perched along RainDance National Resort & Golf, the longest golf course in North America – and one of the most unique landscapes in the region.

For anyone who has dreamed of building a custom home on a world-class course with unobstructed mountain views and a resort lifestyle just steps away, this is that opportunity, and it’s a rare one.
Custom Homesites with a Championship Backdrop
There’s nothing ordinary about RainDance National. Designed by PGA Tour pro Fred Funk and architect Harrison Minchew, this 8,463-yard course winds through Colorado’s high plains with dramatic elevation changes, native grasses, majestic arroyos and panoramic views. Living alongside it is a privilege few will ever know.
The custom homesites here aren’t just parcels of land; they’re canvases for an unbeatable quality of life and one-of-a-kind Colorado lifestyle. Every site has been carefully curated to maximize golf course views and privacy, with generous spacing that lets nature breathe between neighbors. Backyards are condensed for lower-maintenance landscape designs so you can make the most of golf course views (and your day).

Whether you’re entertaining on the patio as players glide by, or enjoying a quiet morning coffee with the dew still fresh on the fairway, life here is intimately connected to the game and the nature that surrounds it.
Design Without Compromise
Emerald Estates offers the rare freedom to design your home without sacrificing quality, aesthetics, or individuality. With flexible architectural guidelines, homeowners are empowered to collaborate with Colorado’s top builders and architects to bring their vision to life – be it a modern farmhouse with expansive outdoor living areas or a contemporary retreat with walls of glass framing the fairways and greens.
Add in golf cart-friendly roads, access to the RainDance River Resort water park, Ted’s Sweetwater Grill, the Grainhouse and Hoedown Hill (Colorado’s newest ski, sled, and tubing hill), and you have a lifestyle where every day feels like a staycation.

Close to Everything – But Away from It All
While Emerald Estates feels like a private escape, its location is remarkably connected. Just minutes from downtown Windsor, and a short drive to Fort Collins, Loveland, or Greeley via quick access to I-25 and Highway 34. For further travel, you don’t have to travel far: the growing Northern Colorado Regional Airport is just minutes away while Denver International Airport (DEN) is just over an hour away.
Whether it’s fine dining, local events, or outdoor adventures, you’re never far from something to enjoy and always close to home.
Secure Your Spot on the Greens and Fairways
With a limited number of homesites available, Emerald Estates is a fleeting opportunity for golfers, nature lovers, and luxury buyers to build something truly exceptional. This is your invitation to live on the edge of a legend.
