Heather Ridge Golf Course
About
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.

The storm missed us but we did get a sunset rainbow. Photo submitted by Buckeye28 on 08/01/2013
The course is very noisy and not relaxing.
The pace was fast because there was not anyone in front of us or behind us.
Women's tees were hard as concrete.
Very old and dated.
Great value course no harrasment experienced!
I read a few reviews that mentioned staff pushing people to keep pace which was a turn off (of golf is a dying sport we collectively have to let people learn how to play the game without being jerks!!) but didn't experience anything of the sort.
Water features were murky but course was prettier than I expected. There are tons of residences to avoid so if you are trying to learn this might not be the best course as you need to have enough control to avoid all of the homes but other than that I thought it was a great course for someone trying to improve their game. Thick grass made finding balls tricky.
But I just played one of the best courses in Coloradoband found Heather Ridge to be quite acceptable for a more value oriented option.
Really fun course
I had a great day playing Heather Ridge. I started alone, so I played the front 9 in about an hour and a half. On the back 9 I caught up to a slower group in front of me. By the time we reached 18, the 2some behind me joined me and there were 2 other groups waiting to tee off. Some of them were getting frustrated, but I had no where to be. All in all, it was a great day.
Very challenging course, but a fun course.
First, understand that I have a natural draw to my swing. The reason I say that is because I had a difficult time on this course and it was because of the natural draw. I was all over the course and hit multiple homes. The houses are right up on the course so accuracy is a big must. That being said, I loved this course! I like a challenge and this course definitely gave me just that. The course was in great condition and the snack/beer cart was out and always stocked. The greens were well maintained and the rough was tough, but not impossible to get out of. The problems I had, were all because of me and not the course. I will be back to take on this challenge again! Great course!
Ok for the money
It pays to know the course. Conditions ok, greens sloped, drivers are not needed on many wholes!
Worse Conditions here I've played, and not advertised
Usually GolfNow will let you know when there is maintenance going on in the course but that didn't happen for this booking. The entire back nine was closed and they just aerated the greens as well. I feel like I got my money robbed from me playing that course cause I wasn't given a heads up. Bad business by GolfNow
Heather Ridge
The green's and fairways were in great shape for winter conditions. Fun green's were a challenge.
good for february in colorado
Found this hot deal from golf now email and 1st time to play this course and enjoyed the round as its not a long but with enough trouble that you have to think about position. Will look forward to playing again.
Round was quick I'm sure because it was 9am tee time in February ( 2hrs 20min ) I was paired with another gentleman.
interesting fast greens fun
good course takes skill to score low fun to play not to crowded so finished 330hr greens fast and scary
Heather Ridge
Great course! Good course management and iron work for better golfers, novices who play 1 or 2 times a month will need to be careful around the water hazards and houses. 19th hole is fair, if you want a large space or a sports lounge this is not for you.
Short but tough
Played from tips because course was fairly short. Despite that, it was pretty tough. Rough caught & stopped balls, making hitting fairways important. Greens were lightning fast.
Cart paths are very rough
Challenging layout for not being very long. Needs some work, but overall it was in pretty good shape. Random residents frequently on the course, walking dogs, riding bikes and even a kid on a motorized scooter was a little strange.
Pack em in
We played 7 holes and quit. We had a group hit into us numerous times. The foursome in front of us barely moved. We ended up getting sandwiched and then leaving could not move with all the carts congested near the first tee waiting. Not a place I'll rerun to. No course management present.
Good course
The course was in good condition but pace of play was slow. Took almost 5 hrs.
