This course is worth the trip down from Denver

I kept seeing this course listed on Golfnow but, being 1+ hour from Denver I always hesitated. When you pull into the parking lot, looks like an average track. The first few holes also pretty average and the greens are in a bit of rough shape but, we are in a drought after all. But then this course is fun, interesting, mysterious and you are never sure where you are going with lots of optical tricks. The back 9 is especially cool and worht the trip from Denver

Back Again

First time playing this course in a couple of years. It's the longest in Colorado and has some of the hardest holes, but it is fun to play even for an average golfer. There were a couple of deadpan areas, mostly around traps and the traps could use some attention. The greens were a little bumpy. But could not beat it for the GolfNow price.

Awesome Course

Had an awesome time, fairways were in decent shape. Greens were running a little bit slow. Outside of that I had a great time

No marshall

Course was in much better shape than a few months ago, but greens are still very slow and fairways are real spotty. Definitely not worth the general prices they are charging to play this course. Not real well maintained (tee boxes not mowed, etc.) Pace of play was pathetic - no marshalls on course! Can play much nicer courses in Pueblo and Pueblo West for quite a bit cheaper on T&Th's.

Listen to the reviews!!!

I had a buddy say that he tried to avoid the course if he could because the conditions were so poor. I assumed that the off course conditions weren’t kept up , but boy was I wrong. This is the worst course I have played in Colorado by far. It’s as if the course hasn’t had any maintenance on the entire course is years.

Trust the warnings, unless you could care less on what type of course you play on.

The course has a ton of potential, but unfortunately this course if in too bad of shape for me to even consider coming back.

Tough but Fun

Overall was decent. Course conditions were fair for most of the course but some spots need serious attention, while the whole course could use some love. There was a huge (120+) group of geese on hole #8. Between the geese and the geese droppings COVERING the tee boxes, it was almost unplayable. I understand they are wild animals but maybe keep an eye on the conditions of the tee boxes.

Layout was awesome, and some seriously challenging holes. If they can do some maintenance on the course and get some dedicated grounds keepers, it would be an awesome course to play regularly.

Tough but Fun.

Overall great course. A fair amount of blind shots. Some holes were hard to judge where the pin was but we made it work. Only complaint would be the large group of geese on hole #8 tee boxs and geese droppings covering the tee boxes. I know they are wild and whatnot, but maybe keep an eye on this because it was covered!

Overall tough but Fun course. Will definitely return to play again in the future.

Slow play, but course was good.

We got behind a couple slow foursomes, so a marshal would have been helpful. Overall, the course was in good condition, but the greens were quite slow and needed to be mowed.

Disappointing

When I first got there, I discovered that there were multiple (3) groups scheduled at the same time as our tee time. Nobody was calling out groups like they should at a quality course. Also, for two people, on a Sunday, $130 is OUTRAGEOUS! For two people, it took us 5 hrs 30 min. to play 18. On top of that, our cart battery died and we had to wait for someone to bring us a new one. Also, because there were so many people scheduled at the same time, we got held up and couldn’t develop a smooth rhythm at all (the cart situation didn’t help either) The course is also in very very bad condition too. Bumpy dead greens, and large quantities of unusable fairways. I think that this was a huge disappointment and I definitely won’t go back there again. I live close enough to walk and it’s nice to have access to the facilities, but it is way overpriced for what you are getting. Save your money and go somewhere else!

The course conditions were horrible. Both fairways and greens were the worst I’ve ever played in Colorado. The greens were just terrible, half of them dead and horribly bumpy. This place might get better by mid summer, but I doubt it. I got a deal for 40 bucks, but wouldn’t think of paying more than that for this track. The only positive is that it was fairly empty, and I just used it as a practice round to try out different shots and break in my new driver. .

Has Potential. Needs water

Absolute garbage course.

Either they should fire the superintendent or allow him to water the course more than once a month. Dried out is an understatement. Fairways are almost entirely hardpan, fungus-infested mess. Most greens were just hard dirt. The greens that actually had grass stimped to about a 4.

I wish I could blame it all on the lack of water, but it’s obvious the course has been neglected for a very long time. I literally saw grass and weeds growing INSIDE a green-side bunker.

The sad part is, this could be a real 5 star course. The layout is really nice. There are 6 tee boxes to accommodate every skill level.

But I generally like to play golf on grass. This place is a total mess.

Course Need Work - Hope it Gets It

As other reviews from April 2020 have said, the course is in poor condition. I play Antler Creek 1-2 times per year and this was the worst shape I've seen in several years. This should be a fun course to play, but it needs a lot of work before that will be true this year.

Only the back 9 was open. We were told we could play the back twice for our 18. Fairways were recently aerated and they're in bad shape. Greens were recently punched and sanded. If this information had been on the webpage we probably would have found another place to play.

We paid $25 to walk 18, which would have been a great deal if not for the course conditions. Recommend finding another option until the course gets in shape.
