The leaders of private clubs across the United States have, for the first time, recognized the excellence of “The Club at Ravenna”, near Denver, as one of America’s top 150 private country clubs in the 2025-26 Platinum Clubs of America competition.
The competition, sponsored by Club Leaders Forum, a worldwide organization committed to the advancement of excellence in global private club leadership, management and operations, places The Club at Ravenna in the top five percent of all private clubs nationwide, joining the ranks of such legendary institutions as Congressional Country Club in Bethesda, Maryland, Bel-Air Country Club in Los Angeles and The Ocean Reef Club in Key Largo, Florida.
The voting body, comprised of the most informed Club Managers, CEOs, COOs, Presidents and Owners across the nation, selected Ravenna based on seven separate criteria, including amenities, service, staff, governance and overall experience. Approximately 4,100 ballots were distributed to private club leaders nationwide.
"Judge us by the company we keep," said Kevin Collins, president & CEO of Ravenna. "To be ranked among the nation’s finest clubs confirms the unique community we've cultivated at Ravenna. Our members' passion and engagement, our employees and team leaders have propelled us to this exceptional status, and we are incredibly proud of what we've built together.”
Only five other Colorado country clubs share the prestigious platinum ranking with Ravenna: Cherry Hills Country Club, Maroon Creek in Aspen, Roaring Fork in Basalt, The Country Club at Castle Pines and the Denver Country Club.
For the past decade, under Collins’ leadership Ravenna has transformed from bankruptcy on the heels of the great recession with a tent for a clubhouse, limited amenities and just 50 golf members, into a nationally recognized top-tier country club with world-class status. Today, it stands among the nation’s elite clubs with a state-of-the-art clubhouse, diverse amenities and a thriving membership of more than 400.
As part of its strategic plan, Ravenna will change its name to Ravenna Country Club to better reflect its status as an exclusive private club. This rebranding aligns with its newly attained platinum club status and will roll out over the next year.
"Our transformation into Ravenna Country Club is a new chapter," said Collins. "This milestone will celebrate how far we've come and our commitment to elevate our already high standards of excellence in the years to come."
