Colorado National Golf Club

This is the third year I have played there and the greens just seem to be getting worse. A few hole are just short of terrible. If it were not for that I would play there more often.

The greens on the front 9 are a little rough. Night and day from the perfect condition of the greens on the back 9.

This is a course that potentially plays crazy long, in the 7600 yard range, with garbage grasses, deep ravines, backyards, thick rough and water for hazzards to help provide a contemporary long game test. It's also, considering the qauality of the golf experience, very reasonably priced. I'd recommend it.

Play on the front 9 was going at a decent pace until hole 9 and then it just seemed like we were crawling on the back 9 waiting for groups in front of us. Hopefully it was just the day, but when we mentioned it to staff on the way out, we were told that it happens pretty frequently there. Had to leave after only getting 16 holes in over the course of 4 hours and 45 minutes.

It's worth the drive and they always have great specials.

This is a wonderful course that is a joy to play. Apparently the course had a rough winter as there were patches of dead turf mainly on the fairways that the maintenance people are working to correct. At this time a golfer wanting to play the course should look for a discounted rate so that they will feel that they get good value for the price.

Course layout is challenging and interesting. Long par 3's, absurdly long par 5's, good par 4's. Greens and fairways conditions are as bad as it can get.

i give it thumbs up; just a little behind due to tough april weather but very good condition; greens rank high

5 1/2 hour round. Course Marshall told us the 2nd group out for the day was 4 holes behind! The guy (Marshall) was very friendly to us but should have kicked somebodies butt up front!

Several fairways were cart path only due to conditions of course.

This course has a very nice layout with some challenging holes. There are great view of the front range during 90% of your round. I was surprised by the lack of trees, but other than that, the course rewards good shots and definitely penalizes poor ones. It helps to know the greens as well. If you're out of position on some of the greens you could easily be staring at a three putt or worse. Overall I liked the course. The only reason that I put the course needs attention is due to the early season play and massive amount of moisture on the course.

I always enjoy playing this course. It's long but fair with reasonably wide fairways. Several holes have challenging layouts for golfers of all skill levels and the greens are well maintained. I would recommend this course.

bunkers not raked, ball marks not repaired, divots not replaced, locals jumping in line to tee off,

Course was great for the most part. And the layout it absolutely gorgeous, with scenery to match. With it being April, the greens were in rough shape, as were some of the bunkers. But I'm sure once they're fully healed from the spring aeration, they'll be fantastic. Definitely planning to head back later in the season to check it out again.

I drove 30 miles to to get to my early tee time on 4/20 @ 10:30 Once I showed up the only thing the guy in the club house could say is "we probably won't open until 1 because of wet conditions" why in the heck post tee times on golfnow if the course isn't even open? After wasting a bunch of gas I was able to find a open tee time in the area, all while Colorado national still had tee times available (even though they are closed). Total joke of a golf course staff.

Challenging, though lots of holes are birdieable! You can score really well if your putting game is on!

I had fun at this course! No trees and no real trouble had me playing the same ball all day. Lack of trees leaves you and your ball exposed to very windy conditions. Greens were rough but was not expecting much this time of year.

Colorado National is a great course but was in rough early season condition. The annoyance a carnival midway game called "The Circle of Hope Challenge" that was set up on one of the par 3's was unfortunate. I would urge Colorado National as well as other GCs to eliminate such contests from the course as they falsely promote themselves as charity events, but are actually for profit corporations usually acting as a marketing front for low end equipment or extraneous services. (Set these guy's up next to the driving range! Keep them off the course) That being said the course has some of the best finishing holes I have ever played. From the 630+ yard (depending on which box you choose) 15th, through beautifully sculpted 18th are in my opinion some of the finest golf holes in Colorado.

It would have been nice if someone told us that the greens had just been punched and sanded. They were un-putt-able and one of the greens was under repair and a make shift green in the fairway was being used. Since half the game is on the greens, they should have offered a discount at least.
It was almost 70 degrees and there was no water on the course and we only seen a beverage cart once (on the 16th hole. Very disappointing.

The course has a massive footprint and runs through some very nice neighborhoods, but still maintains a "wild" appearance. The views of Longs Peak and the front range are spectacular!

I play CO National quite often and normally enjoy. However, currently the greens are aerated (sp?) and all sand. If you enjoy nice greens, avoid this course for a month or so. One of the par 5's on front 9 doesn't even have a green. They put a hole on the fairway. I'd have appreciated it if they mentioned ANY of this in the clubhouse prior to the round which they did not. Still had fun but would have chosen a different track at the moment.
