Arrowhead Golf Club

Had an early morning tee time and well worth waking up early to avoid any delays. Was the second group out, and was allowed to play thru on #4 so it was our course after that. When we got to #15, the group that let us play through wasn't on #10 yet, so played #11-14 for a second time without issue. Ended up playing 22 holes in just over 3 hours.

Course was in great shape for the amount of play it receives. Greens rolled the best I've seen in the Denver/Colorado Springs area all year. Fairways and rough was also in god condition. We played the Arrowhead tees at 6350, shorter than we are used too, but wanted to make it enjoyable. Personally I don't think the course is that tough, a lot of room off the tee to stray a shot, you just have to get the greens down.

Good selection on par 3s, as the previous review said #13 is the signature hole, but #3 is just as good and we had an easy pin. I would hate to see it back left near the rocks.

My one negative comment is the driving range. When you are paying $100+ for a round, let me hit off grass and use my driver. For the range to be off mats and irons only is disappointing. And playing #10, I was afraid a stray shot would hit me, put a high net up to stop stray shots off the range.

Normally I play Arrowhead once per year, but I liked today so much I'll be back before the year is out.

This is one of the country's most unique settings for public golf without question. The red sandstone formations jutting out around the property mixed with boulders big and small are just too cool. I think the routing, a par 70 with 5 par 3s and 3 par 5s, is quite good for such a sensitive area as well. The par-3 13th hole is the signature but I think the par-3 3rd is as good if not better. The opener is wonderful and the par-5 16th has a great "reveal" over the crest and shows Denver in the distance. It's also walkable. Not all the great mountain courses around here are. So that should be noted.

reading some of the reviews I can see why this course isn't for everyone. Along with TPC Colorado it's the most expensive public in the area. It can also get a little slow. We teed off at 9:30 and played in 4:40. It's also on the shorter side, so if you're a longer hitter you may feel a little cramped in. From the middle-back tees I hit quite a few hybrids and 4-irons off the tee including the par-5 18th where I reached the green going 4-iron/3-wood. TPC Colorado is a bigger ballpark with more chances to swing big.

My buddy raved about a deal they were running in the shop where if you spent about $30 on merch you got three drink (including alcohol) tickets.

Greens ran great. Honestly they could have been slowed down. Their flipped cup setup was pretty unforgiving. I had 41 putts! But the total package is as good as I've seen as a visitor to Denver.

Good course in great condition except 10th hole where they were repairing the sprinkler system.

Restaurant too slow on getting food out. No course Marshall one is needed

Several times during the round we had a many as 5 tee times on one hole. The worst one of the holes was #10 right in front of the club house. Either no one noticed or no cared.

A beautiful 82 degree day with little wind. Scenery was awesome as usual on a very clear day. Paired up with 3 others and we had a wonderful day.

Played this course many times and it never gets old. The most scenic course anywhere outside Pebble Beach. Well worth a GN fee of $99. I don’t think it’s worth the normal $150 plus fee.

This was my first time playing at high elevation and this course delivered. A few holes are a bit on the quirky side but I tend to enjoy those types of courses. The views are great and the greens rolled very well. I'd imagine it would take a couple of times around to really know the course. I was sent out as a single sandwiched between all of the foursomes so that made for a lonely 5-hour round. The twosome that had the time cancelled and I can only assume there was no one else to group with. That said, pace of play was a bit of an issue.

The views of the mountains are nice. The greens are stupidly impossible. Can’t stop anything around the greens. Get ready for a nightmare of chasing your ball all over the greens. Not a fun day. And for the price tag it’s outrageous. Avoid at all costs

I had to play this course at least once and recommend that you do too! I was visiting so I wanted to play somewhere nice and was not disappointed. The scenery by itself is impressive, if not distractingly so, but the course is beautiful as well.

Absolutely beautiful! Staff was well above expectations! If you are looking to play within an hour of Denver, this is a MUST PLAY! Worth the extra $$$ from a regular course.

It's always fun to play Arrowhead. The views are fantastic. The golf is a little harder than I like, but do not miss a chance to play the course.

Beautiful golf course but the pace of play was slow

Greens were a little slow today. Bunkers were dry and crusty. Tough to splash out of. Greens,fairways and tee boxes great shape. $80 on a Thursday afternoon is ok, $140 would be steep.

One of the prettiest places you will ever play. I just can't believe they were allowed to put a golf course in these rock formations. It's a good test from the tips. Sadly, if you are a serious player the pace of play is SO SLOW it takes the wind out of your sails. Played a 3 hour front nine and asked if anyone was marshaling the course when we made the turn. We were told "yes" and the pro shop sent out a young man far too young to get any results from the offending foursome. There were four foursomes on #4 tee at one point. I just don't think anyone really cared about pace of play, or they didn't seem to on that day. I think they cater to the "resort or tourist" player and not the more serious one. So, be careful and plan on at least 5 1/2 to 6 hours for your round.
