Golf course models for golf communities

A golf course is hard to explain from a plan: the holes, the layout and the land they cross all matter at once. When the course anchors a larger development, buyers also need to see how it relates to the homes, roads and amenities around it. A golf course scale model puts all of it in one view people can explore together. Many of our golf course models show the course as part of a larger development, and these projects show how.

The course as the heart of a community

Our Marcella Club model places a proposed Utah community's golf course, roads, lot lines and amenities on the terrain, in north and south sections that separate the current design from future development. For Spanish Peaks and Moonlight Basin in Big Sky, Montana, we built a terrain model and its display table for a ski and golf club's sales center.

The course itself

For Denver's City Park Golf Course, we worked from drone elevation data, satellite imagery and course information. The Cornerstone model shows the terrain, holes and layout together, so visitors can follow the course hole by hole.

What to decide before you start

How much of the course and its surroundings to show, where the model will be displayed, and what source material exists, such as a course plan, survey or elevation data. We'll recommend the area, scale and finish after seeing it. See golf course models and what a topographic model is.

What it costs

Each project receives a fixed-cost proposal after we understand its scope. Cost factors include model size and scale, terrain, course features, landscaping and the number and uniqueness of surrounding buildings. We also account for the schedule, shipping and installation where applicable. See what a custom scale model costs.

Common questions

Why use a model to sell a golf community?

It shows the course, homes and amenities together on the real terrain, so buyers can see views, access and how their lot relates to the course.

Can a golf model show lots and future phases?

Yes. Lots, homes and future areas can be shown in separate sections, color-coded or removable.

What data is needed for a golf course model?

A course plan plus survey or elevation data; drone data and satellite imagery also work well.
