Four Mile Ranch Golf Club

The layout is fantastic! Many blind shots make it difficult for playing the first time but still a lot of fun. The undulation on the greens was impressive!

Slower play than I would have expected for middle of a Tuesday and the greens were pretty fuzzy.

This was a fun outing. This was my first time doing “desert golf.”

The pros: a really fun and interesting layout. The greens were super undulated but holes were cut into funneled areas which usually helped you get it close if you were somewhat on the correct area of the green. No bunkers or tree trouble. Fairways and greens were green and in good shape. There are some tremendous views and elevation changes.

Cons: greens are very long and slow but made for an easy 2 putt on each hole. I’m sure it is designed this way with a lack of water in mind. There are several blind shots into greens (and a par 3). There are a couple holes with a 90 degree dogleg on approach of a par 5. If you miss the grass, you probably aren’t playing the shot and probably aren’t finding your ball. Bring lots of balls or play lots of irons off tees.

All that being said, it was super fun and unique and was in great shape.

Simple shop check in area. Decent range but horrible range balls.. The course is hilly and the greens are undulating. There are no sand traps. The views are amazing. Cart beverage service was around plenty. Fairways were in great shape as well as the greens despite being slow.

In the last month, the course conditions have improved greatly. Fairways are greening up and greens are in really good shape for early June. Maintenance staff is doing a great job. As always, the staff is very friendly.

greens were very shaggy and difficult to make putts but I think thats common for this time of year. driving range is a barren mess but who cares. The driving range balls were really bad.

The course is great, the staff was great, the conditions were really quite good. 5 hour and 30 minute round is inexcusable. Saw the marshal several times and he was always very nice. Maybe too nice because clearly there were groups not keeping up somewhere

This course could be an amazing gem. Unfortunately the fairways were tore up and cut to the length of rough. The worst part was the greens. I've seen fairways that roll faster then these. After a couple holes I just started picking up once I was on the green. My group just stopped at the turn instead of playing the back. Very disappointing.

Overall was a great experience, amazing views, and friendly staff. It’s definitely worth the drive and I will be going back.

Have played several layouts by Jim Engh and have enjoyed them all. However, the condition of Four Mile Ranch was disappointing to say the least. Tee box grass was spotty. Many and large dead spots on the fairways. Pace of play seemed slow. FMR is no longer the 4th best public course in Colorado. It’s unfortunate because in prime condition it could be again.

I played the course last year and it was fun. Hopefully the greens are cut and rolled asap. They were extremely slow. Never played on anything like that. It was like putting on a bowl of Oatmeal. I may go back in a few weeks to give it another try.

Short enough to reach in regulation, but undulating greens make scoring pars hard. Blind par 5 and par 3 challenging ans fun. Great mountain views.

Worst shape fairways and greens ever played for this course

And used to love this course. I raved about this course to my son for two years. Went their yesterday and was really let down. Fairways really torn up and huge brown spots all over

Bumpy greens. Played with a couple from Pueblo Colorado

Which is only 30 miles away it was their fist time playing there

They couldn’t believe how bad it was also. Jim Engh designed favorite golf course would be beside himself to this.

Normally play this course a lot and it usually in fairly good shape by this time each season, however a lot of winter kill this time around. I've never seen this course in this rough of shape since it opened in 2008.

The fairways were under repair, greens were aerated and cart path only. Course is in horrible condition.

Greens are in good conditions. Rest of the course is fair, but that's to be expected in April. A few weeks away from high-quality experience.

It was a fun course to play. I can’t wait to go back in the summer when the greens and fairways will be in better shape. It was still in good condition for being this early in the year.
