Mount Massive Golf Course sits at the base of two of Colorado's highest mountains, just outside the historic mining town of Leadville, Colorado. Originally established in 1939, the beauty of the scenery has drawn golfers here for over seventy years. This beautiful course with small-town charm welcomes players of all ages and abilities to enjoy golf in a majestic and awe-inspiring setting.Golf has been played on the site since the 1930s, originally on sagebrush fairways and sand greens. In the early 1970s, a $50,000 grant provided the funds for a single-row automated irrigation system. The irrigation system allowed Mount Massive to establish turf and to begin thinking of itself as a real golf course. Mostly dependent on donations and modest membership revenues, a few caring folks nurtured and tended the course into the late 1980's.
