Colorado National Golf Club

In the Boulder region this has been my favorite course so far. The standard of the fairways and greens are great, the difficulty is challenging but not too hard. The pace of play can be slowed down by balls easily lost in the wild grass, or the cart path only holes. The views of the front range are spectacular.

Not a bad course, however, fairly expensive compared to other courses in the area. $6 for a small bucket of range balls is ridiculous. Greens could use some attention, they are pretty beat up.

A beautiful course with a nice layout. Fun to play and nice gps in cart.

Pace was slow but they sent me out as a single so I quickly caught the group ahead. Drinks were exceptionally expensive, but you can't beat $28 for 18 holes and a cart on a nice course!

Good course, very challenging from the back tees, par 3s averaged around 225 yards, but very reasonable landing areas, and greens were in excellent shape and have some good speed to them. I would play it again next time I'm in denver...

First time out and this was a welcome surprise...great course, very challenging...if you keep the ball in play! If not it can tear you up.

The course seems to be neglected. The tee boxes on the Par 3s were all chewed up, the greens were shaggy and spotted, but the worst was the "sand" in the bunkers, which was more concrete than sand, completely hardpacked. A sand wedge would just skip off the top of the "sand." Even the rakes wouldn't even scratch the surface of the Quickrete that they used in the bunkers.

Very good course. Some of the holes are pretty tough to make it on the green in two when its a par 4. The carts will shut off and will tell you to go in reverse if you are 2 feet away from the rough "native area". Keep cart on cart path or on the fairways . Found that out the hard way.

Course plays longer then score card from gold tee. Greens very acceptable with good shot. Layout makes for a very satisfying round even if not scoring well. Will play again from one tee forward.

Playing this course is always a priority when I am home for the summer. You can choose a tee box that fits your game as there are 6 choices. The greens are kept in good shape, true and quick! When you are choosing your aiming spots on peaks of the Front Range of the Rocky Mountains, it doesn't get any better!

This is purportedly where CU plays their golf. You'd expect for the price they pay and the need to have collegiate level tournaments that course would be in better shape most if the time. Without fail, you can expect to find at least a couple of holes with major efforts in the middle of the fairway or just off the green. The greens are in less than ideal shape most of the time, which is painful because the reads and speed bring good challenge, and it's cruel to get a good line and have your putt knocked off it's line by a bunch of bumps everywhere. They charge for the course as though it is in great shape, and if it were, the price would justify, as it is a fun course that is built well. Paying 6 dollars for a small bucket of balls that are more than half of them coming out destroyed (balls literally with most of the cover ripped up/off) epitomizes this course. A premier price tag for something that could be great, but isn't.

TERRIBLE pace of play---5 hours! None of the rangers on the course did anything about the SLOW play. What a shame because it's a good layout. I won't play here again.

If not 45 mins north of my home and not a wait on every hole I'd recommend colorado national to all. Perhaps the pace was a fourth of July weekend problem?

I played Colorado National with a friend. We had a great golf experience. I would play there again.

Virtually no trees on the course makes for a hot round on a hot summer day. The course was under repair this day, and I understand things like this must be done for the good of the course, but there were stacks of sod rolls in the middle of fairways and some even blocking the approach to a green on one hole!

Slow play and rude people cart died on me and had to walk back to the club house

Beautiful facility with great views of the Rockies.

The course was in the Best shape ive seen in years but they have not planted any trees to hide from the sun while waiting on groups in front, A lot of Marshals out on course but just seem to ride around without telling slower groups to speed up, got 12 golfers backed up on a par 5 Not on the par 3. over all course is in great shape a lot of great placed Bunkers to make you think can I clear it or do I Lay up.

I played this course back when it first opened and the condition of it this time was sad to see. While the teeboxs and fairways were in good shape, the greens were as bumpy as any I've seen for a while and the sand traps were like hitting off of concrete. Add to that the fact that the pro shop and starter weren't on the same page and we got yelled at for not being mind readers! And to top it all off, over 5 1/2 hours, with marshals driving by hauling golf carts and doing nothing to speed up play. Maybe they were taking replacement carts out to players whose cart had died, ours nearly did. And the GPS system was a joke, it kept shutting off the cart when we got within 30 feet of the native areas. I took some friends for a good round and was sadly disappointed. I won't be back!!!!!!!!

As far as the course goes, Colorado National is a good track. It's kept in good shape and offers a challenge to any golfer. However the pace of play is the worst I've ever experienced. When I asked a staff about this, his response was you'll never play a sub 5 hour round on the weekend (our round took over 5 and a half hours). The worst part is the staff seems to simply have accepted this as normal.
