Custom Backyard Putting Green in Olde Town Arvada

This one was a great fit from the start. The homeowner runs this property as an Airbnb, and they wanted something guests would actually enjoy - not just a patio and a hot tub. A custom putting green checked every box. Fun, unique, and something you just don't find at most rentals.

Here's what makes this kind of install so practical for a short-term rental situation specifically. No mowing. No mud. No dead patches after a dry stretch. The turf stays green and clean whether guests are there or not. The owner doesn't have to touch it between bookings, and guests get a backyard feature they'll actually talk about.

We shaped the green with a two-hole layout and a raised fringe border that gives it a clean, defined edge all the way around. That fringe detail isn't just cosmetic - it gives the green a course-quality look and helps it sit naturally in the yard without looking like a mat just dropped on the ground. The border curbing ties it all together and keeps the whole installation tight and finished.

For Airbnb owners, this is the kind of outdoor feature that pays for itself. It adds a listing amenity you can highlight, it photographs well, and it requires almost nothing in terms of ongoing upkeep. For regular homeowners, the same logic applies - you get a backyard you can actually use without adding to your weekend to-do list.

If you've got a backyard corner that isn't doing much for you, a putting green is worth a serious look. We install custom putting greens across the Arvada area and can work with just about any shape or size space.
