GOLF

Based on the golf green in the front yard, you can surmise that ElkView owners enjoy golf – you’d be correct. Surprisingly, here in the rural mountain West, you’re not far from spectacular golfing opportunities. Just 30 minutes away, in Anaconda, sits the Jack Nicklaus signature Old Works Golf Course. This 7,700 yard 18-hole public course is built out of the historical diggings of The Anaconda Copper Mining Company. Also nearby, is Fairmont Hot Springs Resort Golf Course, 6,700 yard 18-hole public course which may remind you of your local municipal course back home. Little did you know that this course boasts the longest par-5 hole in the state (649 yards) and the most difficult par-3 hole in the state. Finally, Deer Lodge Golf Club (also known as Deer Park Golf Course) offers a less-challenging day of golf with a 3,200 yard 9-hole public course which is a great time for a family. But as always, feel free to hit all the golf balls you want to the green at ElkView – your own private 1-hole course!
