A Golfer’s Dream in the Heart of Northern Colorado
Nestled within the expansive beauty of RainDance National Resort & Golf in Windsor, Colorado, Emerald Estates offers a rare opportunity to live and breathe golf like never before.

This exclusive collection of custom luxury homesites, set right on the golf course, invites you to design and build the home of your dreams. Set against the stunning backdrop of the Rocky Mountains, Emerald Estates offers a lifestyle where the course is both your playground and your muse.
At the heart of Emerald Estates lies a truly unique claim to fame: its perch on the longest golf course in North America. Designed by PGA Tour Champion Fred Funk, RainDance National isn’t just a course; it’s an experience. Stretching over 8,400 yards, this high-plain links-style course melds masterful design with the natural beauty of northern Colorado. From its rolling fairways to its seasonal landscapes of native grasses and majestic arroyos, every detail reflects a commitment to excellence. For the avid golfer, playing here is as much about strategy and skill as it is about soaking in the heritage and charm of the land.

Beyond its position overlooking the golf course, Emerald Estates emphasizes a lifestyle that marries sophistication with the laid-back charm of the surrounding community. Imagine starting your morning with a round of golf, then heading to the neighborhood Grainhouse Sports Bar or Ted’s Sweetwater Grill for a casual bite, locally crafted brew or specialty cocktail. In the evenings, the fine dining options of Windsor and nearby Fort Collins await, offering everything from creative farm-to-table dishes to expertly prepared classics.
When it comes to recreation beyond the greens, Emerald Estates is perfectly situated. Residents are minutes from Windsor Lake, the Poudre River Trail, and Boyd Lake State Park, making outdoor adventures as accessible as they are varied. And when the need for big-city energy strikes, downtown Denver is just an hour away.

What truly sets Emerald Estates apart, however, is the opportunity to craft a home that’s uniquely yours. These luxury custom homesites invite you to bring your vision to life, pairing the tranquility of open skies and emerald fairways with the unmatched joy of a home built to reflect your personality and passions. Whether it’s a cozy retreat or a sprawling sanctuary, your home here will have a remarkable vantage point to watch the seasons shift across the course, the mountains, and the vibrant community below.
For those who love the game of golf, Emerald Estates represents the ultimate fusion of sport and lifestyle. But even for those who’ve never swung a club, the allure of this place is undeniable. It’s a place where natural beauty, thoughtful design, and a sense of community converge, creating an environment that feels both exclusive and welcoming.

Living at Emerald Estates isn’t just about living on one of the nation’s most extraordinary courses.
