Dedisse Park, Urban park in Jefferson County, United States.
Dedisse Park is a 420-acre Denver Mountain Park in Jefferson County, Colorado, originally the ranch of 1860s pioneer Julius C. Dedisse. It contains the 55-acre Evergreen Lake, formed in 1927–1928 by a 35-foot dam on Bear Creek, and the Evergreen Golf Course, built in 1925 with the Keys on the Green lodge.
The land was privately owned by pioneer Julius C. Dedisse until 1919 when Denver acquired the property through legal proceedings. The area was subsequently converted into a public park to serve the community.
The park represents the National Park Service rustic architectural style, integrating natural materials and design elements within the mountain environment.
The park has parking areas, restrooms, and picnic facilities throughout its grounds for visitor convenience. Pathways are clearly marked and accessible for a range of activities and fitness levels.
The Evergreen Golf Course, laid out in 1925, was Colorado's first mountain golf course. Its clubhouse houses the rustic Keys on the Green restaurant, named for the keys that once hung there.
