Indian Peaks Golf Course

Lafayette Colorado envisions a future that mixes small town livability with balanced growth and superior technologies. Founded in 1889, Lafayette Colorado was the largest coal mining center in Boulder County. Its land size is estimated to be 8.9 square miles. Lafayette's major sector employers are comprised of IBM, Storage Technology, Sun Microsystems, Boulder Community Hospital, Centrobe and Level 3 Communications.

A new $5,000,000 municipal library was recently built. Of major importance is the Indian Peaks Golf Course designed by Hale Irwin. Four (4) separate tee boxes for each hole make for an enjoyable round of golf for all players. Also, the downtown area welcomes antique "hunters". Most subdivisions have shown sustained appreciation through the years. You'll enjoy this friendly community! Come visit and make our home your home!
