Been wanting to play here for a while. This course comes as advertised! Great layout. Pace of play is slow, but they tell you that ahead of time. It’s not a shock. The course slope rating should be higher. If you make a mistake off the tee, the course makes you pay for it. I look forward to playing here again.

Pace of play

Don’t come here unless you want to play a 6 hour round. Course is maintained pretty good and the layout is nice but there are no rangers enforcing pace of play and the tee times are booked too close together.

It's not the same anymore.

Having completed this round at my home course, I have made the decision to seek alternative golfing venues. I implore all golfers to demonstrate respect for the course and to familiarize themselves with established golfing etiquette. While the course typically experiences wear and tear during the summer months, the current condition has deteriorated significantly due to golfer behavior. Tee boxes are suffering from inadequate divot repair, with players failing to fill divots with sand, even when the displaced turf is readily accessible. Approach shots are similarly compromised by the prevalence of unfilled divots. The greens present the most significant concern, appearing to have been subjected to extensive chipping practice. While the groundskeepers bear responsibility for course maintenance, the initial responsibility lies with each individual golfer. Proper course care, including the repair of divots, contributes significantly to the overall condition. I am hopeful that the course will exhibit improvement upon my next visit.

Disgrace

It’s disgraceful for this course to be in this poor of condition. The greens are destroyed, divots absolutely everywhere and no one repairs them. The fairways are worse. Huge divots from irons shots lying everywhere. Giant swaths of turf just dug out from iron shots and no sand in them or the divots that are lying everywhere being put back into them to fill them. The course lay out is second to none. For it to be in this condition is absolutely disgraceful. I will not be returning. I’m disgusted.

GREAT overall experience

We moved away and it had been several years since I played Boulder and I forgot what an awesome course it is! Course conditions were excellent, layout is awesome and the clubhouse, halfway house and staff were superb! Highly recommend and now that we've moved back to the area I'll be back soon this time!

Poorly managed

Our group is the largest privately ran golf tournament in America. We booked our tournament here this year making it very clear to the course owner that our average round is 5.5-6 hours. He agreed to that and gladly took full payment for 84 golfers for four days. Course reviews across multiple sites state the pace of play is slow; up to 6 hours on the weekends. At the conclusion of our second day, the owner called our leader giving him an ultimatum he had 10 minutes to tell him how we were going to get our pace of play down to 4.5-5 hours ... or we wouldn't be welcome back for our last two days. Instead of a tournament round on our third day we had to opt to a scramble. We easily kept up with the public players they put off in front of us. This completely ruined our tournament format, and was inexcusable for him to do to us.

It is a beautiful and challenging course, but is a shame it's so poorly managed: No rangers, trash cans on the course were over flowing and not emptied once while we were there. Greens ran on the slow side - guessing they keep them that way to speed up play.

Owner and Pro-Shop staff are angry and incompetent.

My golf group takes a trip every year. There is always between 80-90 guys that go. We play a tournament over 4 days. On the first day of our tournament the pro-shop decided to put multiple groups out in front of our 84 man tournament. They also put golfers out at 10 in between our golfers. Our first group stayed on the golfers in front of them and kept the pace of play. Not one time did a ranger come out to move things along. By the end of the day those groups were playing almost 6 hour rounds all while waiting on those first groups. Before we even finished our round the owner who was going on false information called our group leader throwing one f-bomb after another that we would not be allowed back the next day if we did not come up with a solution in 10min. In over 20 years of making this trip this is the worst course management we have ever run across. I talked with many locals about the course and 5 1/2 hour rounds are normal there. I wouldn’t waste my money at this course. Worst experience on a golf course I’ve ever had.

Beautiful views & beautiful golf

Second time playing this track and can’t wait to play it again. The course was in great condition. Greens weren’t as fast as I anticipated but the conditions of the greens were outstanding. Definitely a premier course

Nice track

Beautiful landscaped property. Tee to green in great shape. The rough was a little thick so stay out. Greens were slow especially when your used to playing Florida courses. Overall nice track.

Cart Path Only

It’s tough to be fair when cart path only rules are in place due to excessive rain the night before. The fairways are not always this wet. Even drives in the middle of the fairway were soggy..

Beautiful course

As a first time player to this course I was blown away at how great the course was well-taken care of by the wonderful folks at the greens department. Manicured lawns and awesome fairways. I can't believe I never played this course before. The only downside was I only made it to the 16th tee when the skies opened up and I got soaked. Definitely will return. Thanks again for a super fun day on your golf course.
