Feeling the call of the putter?  The thrill of the big driver? Well there are many places to get your golf on with 30 mins of the Grand Lake Lodge! Here are a few: 

Explore town 

Grand Lake is a cute little town that is fun to pop in and look around.  See if you can find the highest yacht club in America!  Or take a walk and shop  on the Grand Lake Broadwalk! Or admire all the historical buildings and landmarks, and see if you can find the old town jail where the notorious western criminal, Stinky Eye Joe, once escaped from! You can walk right into town from the lodge, just make sure you bring sturdy shoes and remember, it's all uphill on the way back!
