Rochelle Ranch Golf Course Top 100 Review

Rochelle Ranch Golf Course is a public, city-owned links-style 18-hole championship course located in Rawlins, Wyoming at an elevation of 6,800 feet. Designed by Ken Kavanaugh and gifted by local sheep ranchers Curt and Marian Rochelle, it is currently the longest golf course in Wyoming, stretching from 7,925 yards to 5,706 yards.

The course features excellent elevation changes and magnificent views across the high-altitude landscape. Its distinctive design includes only two parallel holes and minimal traditional rough, instead bordered by sand, sagebrush, and scrub bushes. The bent grass greens are particularly notable. An exceptional practice facility includes an all-grass tee driving range and a practice green exceeding 19,000 square feet.

The course was recognized as the #2 course to play in Wyoming by Golf Week Magazine's 2022 rankings. In October 2023, long-drive champion Kyle Berkshire set a world record with a 579.66-yard drive at the course. The layout accommodates players of all abilities while providing championship-level challenges, and the management team continues to preserve the original design while maintaining quality playing conditions.
