Located a few miles south of Parker and fashioned as the centrepiece for an upmarket new community, the 7,200-yard golf course at The Club at Pradera is a Jim Engh design from 2004. It plays very long from the back markers, but seven tee positions make the layout playable for golfers of all abilities.

Pradera
Located a few miles south of Parker and fashioned as the centrepiece for an upmarket new community, the 7,200-yard golf course at The Club at Pradera is a Jim Engh design from 2004. It plays very long from the back markers but, with seven tee positions on every hole, the course is eminently playable for golfers of all abilities.
Engh described the layout as having “two different looks… a blend of Irish and Modern. About a third of the holes out there I would consider bordering on true Irish. Other holes are more Modern and quasi-linksy” where “we worked hard to blend what nature gave us”.
Notable holes include strategic par fives at the 7th and 18th (each of which feature a split fairway); the long and difficult par four 7th (played uphill to a raised green); and water-protected par threes at the 8th and 15th.
