Four Mile Ranch Golf Club sprawls across a stunning landscape of gently rolling hills. The layout closely follows the natural contours of the terrain and doesn't use any formal bunkers, in their place are white shale ridges called hogbacks. They can range anywhere in height from 3 to 30 feet and they're not even the golf course's only distinctive feature. The layout winds through natural rock outcropping and a number of mini canyons. It's as challenging as it is scenic, though, with several blind shots and intimidating greens, none of which are more daunting than that on the memorable par-5 sixth. This tough green is obscured by huge rocks, testing not only your skills but also your ability to strategize. Four Mile Ranch G.C. offers a golf experience like none other in the area.

Unique challenge

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.

Very good condition

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.

Great layout / conditions / slow pace of play

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

Poor conditions

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.

Inventive layout

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.

Greens are like putting on a bowl of Oatmeal

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.

Unique gem.

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.

Very sad

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.

Okay but....

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.

Quality spring golf

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.

Fun course

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.

Horrible shape

The fairways were in horrible shape and completely torn up. Greens were recently aerated and bumpy. Cart path only and very few yardage markers. Price was good but course conditions didn’t warrant any more than that. Hopefully it improves, or we won’t continue to play there.

Too early to play - wait until Mid-May, or so.

Fairways terrible - winter kill. Greens recently punched and sanded, so very bumpy and unpredictable.
