Experience World Class Golf at Cottonwood Canyon!

If you’re choosing to live in a golf course community, one of your top priorities will be ensuring the excellence of the golf course on which you live.  Here at Cottonwood Canyon, award winning golf course community in Lenexa, you can rest assured knowing that a world class golf course is just outside your front door!

The Golf Club of Kansas received outstanding reviews when it first opened being ranked as GolfWeek’s “Best New Courses” in 2009.   They have continued that reputation with their stunning fairways, innovative design and PGA staff professionals.  The design of the course at The Golf Club of Kansas is the result of a unique collaboration between renowned course architect Tom Jackson of South Carolina and project Founder, Tom Kelly.  Jackson brought his insurmountable experience in his 40 year career in designing 130 golf courses and being a member of the Carolinas Golf Hall of Fame.  His expertise, along with Kelly, who had constructed courses with architects Jim Spear, Tom Jackson, Arnold Palmer, and P. B. Dye gave this dynamic team the drive and skill to create this outstanding Lenexa golf course.

Designed with the golfer in mind, The Golf Club of Kansas has a unique philosophy that seeks to provide outstanding golf for those short on time, funds or skill.  Each aspect is addressed to guarantee a successful golf outing from well spaced starting times to an innovative membership structure to PGA staff instruction and club fitting programs.  We could go on about the wide Meyer Zoysia fairways, A1/A4 bent grass greens and fescue-bluegrass combination in the rough, or talk about the terrain and elevation changes that create the ideal backdrop for an excellent game of golf, but it’s just something you’ll have to experience for yourself! 

Whether you are considering building your dream home at Cottonwood Canyon on this breathtaking golf course, or you’re interested in learning more about what The Golf Club of Kansas has to offer, you’ll want to be sure to visit their website for detailed information and current summer specials on memberships!

Don't Miss the Upcoming Cottonwood Canyon Fundraising Event!

As the Cottonwood Canyon Community Team, we hope you’ve been finding our blog posts helpful in discovering more about Cottonwood Canyon, Lenexa and the current Lenexa Real Estate market!  It’s our goal to give you a well rounded approach to the Cottonwood Canyon lifestyle and provide you with the pertinent home buying and custom home building information you want to know. 

In light of this, we’re excited about an upcoming event being hosted on our stunning golf course community!  On Friday, July 20th, those who love the arts and golf will find the perfect blend of the two at the Cottonwood Canyon/KAF Fund Raiser.  The Kansas Arts Foundation is calling local artists to submit their photographic work for the Kansas Golf Course Photographic Competition which will be featured and entered into a silent auction.  Funds raised will help to fuel the ongoing efforts of KAF’s non-profit initiative for the arts and arts education.

The Cottonwood Canyon/KAF Fund Raiser will take place on Friday, July 20th from 5:30-8pm at Cottonwood Canyon, and is being set as an informal tent event with live music and BBQ catered by Brancato’s Catering. The tree lined backdrop of Cottonwood Canyon will set the ambiance for Johnson County and Eastern Douglas County donors to take part in the evening filled with great food, live music and the opportunity to support local artists.

Adding to the excitement of the fundraiser will be a special appearance by Governor Brownback. KAF will host Governor Brownback at a private reception in one of Cottonwood Canyons’ model homes from 5-5:30pm. All hosts/host couples and donors who have donated $1,000, along with the winning photographer, will be invited to attend this private, catered reception.  For more information about the event, feel free to contact Steve Hughes at srh@hughesgolf.com.

We’re looking forward to this event and the opportunity for people to experience the beauty of Cottonwood Canyon for themselves!  If you’re interested in learning more about homes available in Cottonwood Canyon or building your custom home; please don’t hesitate to contact us!  We’d love to answer your questions and can show you around our sprawling setting and model homes.

We look forward to hearing from you!
