Rating 69.0

The golf course at Heather Ridge provides not only a good game but also spectacular views overlooking the Rocky Mountains. The former private, 18-hole course is 6,106 yards at its longest tees and plays to a par of 70. Renowned golf course designer Richard Phelps designed the course, which opened in 1972. The small greens are undulating and extremely sloped. The course also features narrow fairways and water hazards. The most difficult hole on the Heather Ridge Golf Course is the 10th hole, which is a par-5 that covers 506 yards.

Rude staff

I checked in at 8:50 AM for a 9:20 tee time and was greeted by staff who seemed unwelcoming. The person at check-in, who also is the starter, said he'd let me know when it was time to start. When I checked back at 9:25 AM, he informed me that I had missed my tee time, admitting he forgot to notify me. The cart lady “fat unhappy dude”, who we encountered only after the 13th hole, also had a poor attitude. Both the office staff member and the cart guy displayed an unpleasant demeanor that negatively impacted my experience. Overall, the lack of professionalism and friendliness from the staff overshadowed the enjoyment of the course. I hope they can work on improving their customer service.

Great layout for a slightly shorter course!

Always enjoy playing HeatherRidge, challenging layout, water/hazards on several holes and greens with many difficult putts!

The only drawback is the price increases over the past three years, as it has increased nearly 50%.

Great local golf course but beware...

TWEAKER ALERT!?!?!

I AM NOT KIDDING... AGAIN, TWEAKER ALERT!!! Around the course, they can pop up anywhere but mainly in the main parking lots and around holes #5, 6, 10, 11, 15, and 16!

My group was being sized up by one tweaker guy on hole#6 and I stared him down, so he veered off and kept walking north on the roadway, but he was stalling around the green hanging around. I immediately stopped Course Ranger Mike and told him. Mike saw another and monitored the area and headed to the back nine to ensure player safety. I caught up with Mike on hole#12 and he confirmed he did see a different tweaker guy but not the same one I saw earlier!?!?!

I really think Course Rangers should carry a stun-gun or pepper spray because it has gotten creepy here lately!

Play and enjoy your round but I'm telling you right now... WATCH OUT FOR YOUR GROUP AND YOURSELF IN THIS AREA!

Traffic accident caused us to be late

We encountered an unforseen traffic delay( I25 was closed northbound at Ridgegate) and called thd pri shop to inform them. They were incredibly understanding. Although we had to skip the first hole, the staff in the pro shop were great and the course Marshall drove us out to the second tee box, and made us fell as relaxed as possible starting our round.. We saw the wonderful Marshall during and after our round, and had drinks and lunch afterwards at Noonans, where we reconnected one more time. Great overall experience!
