Always a great value in the south Denver suburbs

Greens were outstanding, staff friendly and efficient, the course improvements monitored by the on-course team are greatly appreciated, and all add up to much appreciated improvements to the golfer's experience. Coming here is always a good time. The course receives a lot of play but when everyone remembers to play ready golf and fix their ball marks, and keep up the pace, somehow we all move through okay. The course is not long but it is fair and a good challenge, especially when the wind kicks up.

Horrible service and unfriendly staff

I played this course a few times the last month while in Denver for surgeries for my daughter. Took her out with me a couple times and today they wouldn’t let us on the course, took my money and had us leave. After I’ve already spent well beyond $500 here on green fees the last month, add food and drink into that also!

That’s not how a professional course should be.

Guy said she could sit in the car while I played 18 holes!

Been golfing a long time and this is the first time my kid wasn’t aloud to ride in the cart with me.

Horrible service and will never be back here!

Fun and challenging

It’s short and challenging, played it with another in 3:30. Pretty quick if it isn’t packed. Usually easy to get on as a single or twosome. I play here a lot, greens can be tough.

Getting better & better

...my strategy playing this tricky little course...is getting better, still working on my score :)

You can't/shouldn't just barrel after the holes here, unless you have great personal insurance and a lot of extra time and money on your hands. I played with a resident who lives on the back nine and his place has been hit (3) times so far, this season. One person offered to pay for the damages, the other two "slipped" away into the fading light of the day.

Play smart and safe here to score well; I held back from my inner-monster, "RIPPER" and played smart and scored (74) so it works. Cheers!
