The Ridge at Castle Pines (Colorado)

This course is always in great shape and the staff is awesome

I love this course, but will not be coming back. Almost 6 hours to play 18 is unacceptable. Let the outside service staff know it was playing slow and he laughed and comment "it's that time of the year". It is NEVER that time of the year for almost a 6 hour round. At one point there were 4 groups waiting on the 10th tee. Additionally there are usually 2-3 greens that are in very poor shape. Fix the pace and the green conditions on the back 9 and I'd consider coming back, till then there are much better options for the price.

I was very impressed with the off the course amenities. 4-stars.

The front was in great shape, the greens were challenging, but 12-16 greens were in horrible shape. Was like putting on carpet. All of the bunkers were in terrible shape. Was nervous hitting out of the with all of the rocks within the bunkers.

Overall, I was pleased with my experience. Just would like to see a course of this level, have much better sand and maintained bunkers.

Conditions were poor. No

Amenities.

Poor value!

We booked a twosome to play on April 8th. I was not happy with the conditions on the back 9, holes 12,13,14,15 were worse than all the previous years in the last 15 years. No mention of the condition at check in. I know those holes typically have shade and are slow to melt, but the fairway on 13 and the greens on those holes were horrible.

The course was fair and interesting. Loved the elevation changes and hunkering. The conditions for mid March were better than expected. Fairways were lush to hit from. I wish cart paths only were not in effect but still got thru in 4.5 hours as a foursome. I understand the need to protect the turf in the early season

Well done!!!

Every time I play this golf course it is enjoyable. Amazing views, creative golf holes, and perfect conditions make for an awesome round anytime you play. It's a little pricey but worth it to play at least once. The back nine is the better of the 2 in my opinion. It meanders through a forest and has some great holes with dramatic elevation change. I'd highly recommend playing if you have the chance.

Staff over watered (we haven't had rain in weeks) and forced us to take cart path only. Pace of play sucked also because they clearly stacked the tee sheets too full. We waited long periods on every hole for the group in front of us and always felt rushed by the group behind us on every hole also. When will courses realize 10-12 minutes between tee times really isn't a big deal??? With this layout this should be one of the best places to play in the state, but the staff keeps stepping on their own toes by doing stuff that's dumb.

I spend my birthday every year hopefully playing a comfortable and rewarding round of golf, this year was exceptional.

The course was in great shape, great views and scenerie. A must play. Cart path only rule was the only downside.

From an avid golfers perspective, this course is a must play annually from here on.

The par 3's are terrific and the course conditions were exceptional! Hole # 18 is a must see!

Great course! Starter Dick was very kind and knowledgable. Would definitely play again

Course is beautiful. Well set up but there isn't a Marshall after 3pm. I finished front 9 in a hour and 25 minutes, back thru 14 over 2 hours and couldn't finish due to darkness. I went to this course because I heard of how beautiful it was but didn't get to play the nicest hole on the course 18. Very disappointing. I believe if they had a Marshall it would have been fine. Plus, the money you pay to play course. They should have a Marshall!!! No excuse....

Course was in great shape and pace of play was pretty quick for a Saturday afternoon.

This course was my favorite to play in the Denver area. The views are unbelievable!!! The course itself is in pristine condition. The greens we're rolling an 11. The rough was thick and will challenge you. The elevation changes make this course a memorable experience. If you are in Denver and want to play a great round, play the Ridge! It was well worth the time and money.

The Ridge at Castle Pines prides themselves as the best front range golf course in Colorado. Many, many a tournaments held here. All season, this year, the bunkers are the worst ever! To say they have rocks puts it mildly. Some have equal rocks to sand, looks more like road sand. Poor quality! Damages clubs! We were told the bunkers have no drainage and when it rains, often this year, they have to hose suck the water which also removes sand (any good sand left). A friend recently paid $150.00 a round and said the course quality was more like an unmaintained local course. What a shame too, the views are spectacular. Please, please, spend some of your income from overpriced players to maintain the bunkers/course to a quality facility. Also NEVER leave your clubs there while you go for a drink/food. Another friend had a collectable putter disappear.

I honestly couldn't believe the standard of this course coming out of ski season... Awesome! The staff are always really polite and professional and although it's a pricey course, especially seeing as Colorado has an average of $40 ish and this place is $100 off peak and considerably more peak but it's worth it! Weekday rounds can be quick and really enjoyable! Long story short, definitely recommended with excellent fairways and fast/greens. Tip: Don't be tempted to always club up or down with the induration as I seemed to have minimal difference either way.
