Arrowhead Golf Club

This was my 4th and my wife's 1st round. I was happy to find a day to show her this beautiful course. The weather was just about perfect. The check-in had a minor delay with the new Golfpass interface, but the Golfnow tee time was seamless. The staff worked to get it figured out. The cart person was very friendly. The driving range is distance limited to 185y. They told us the greens haven't been mowed yet, since it has just recently melted out, so the speeds were a bit variable...and fairly fast on the downhillers. Texas wedge or hybrid putts may be the current shot choice for near miss approach shots with a downhill pin. The snows have largely melted, though some bunkers still hold snow making the sand variable for your exit sand saves. The course overall was in really nice shape.

The groundskeepers were out there getting things tuned up, but for us amateurs, working around greens puts them in a bit of jeopardy with tightened muscles and skull shots, especially on #4 where long is the safer play. Fore!

The course is cart path only right now, which seems appropriate, though it makes for a bit of extra time to get to your shots on the other side of the fairways. The GPS in the cart turned out handy to help reduce the number of clubs selected for those guesses on the far side.

FWIW, this is a pretty challenging course for intermediate, middle-aged ladies with its 136 slope rating (113 being average). E.g. from Columbine tees #4's 385y length with a forced carry to get to the green really earns its 1 hcp; #2's 508y length may be a stretch; #12's 387y left-curving layout will test shot control; and #18's lake curving out near the cartpath will foil a reasonably intentioned 2nd shot if your tee shot doesn't get you a view of the lake.

Still this course is always a treat! Though one might like the final tally better on the 2nd, 3rd, or 4th lap. Enjoy!

The course was in very good shape considering it was under a blanket of snow a weak ago. A little slow due to cast path only. Overall a great day!

For late in year, course was in excellent condition. We were first group off in morning so pace of play was great. Finished in about 3 hours, 45 minutes. Course was challenging for a couple of seventy somethings. Parred first 2 holes, double bogied third and quit keeping score, just enjoyed the fantastic scenery and nice late November day. Wind and temp was up and down depending on where on the course. Some holes protected, others not at all.Very glad we played the course. Will try to play once or twice a year from now on. Got lots of great pictures!

Pace of play was slow and didn't finish round but the was in great shape and its a beautiful course.

A must play course. You won’t play a more scenic course. Probably not worth the normal fee of $159 but is worth a golf now price of $120. The course had just been over seeded so fairways were a little long but greens were very good.

Beautiful golf course. Greens have some slope to them, but they rolled well and were a good speed. We had a slow group in front of us. The staff did attempt to speed them up and even asked them to skip a hole, but we were waiting on them again within 2 holes.

The course and layout are absolutely breathtaking. On the day that we played, the pace of play was horrendous. We were told by an employee, playing alone in front of us, that the course hosted a scramble earlier in the day. We chose a 4:03 tee time for the price and due to the recommendation of local residents. We played behind a foursome and two singles on the front nine. We spent 3-5 minutes waiting to hit shots. If it is going to play that slow, I would hope that you would be warned about the pace of play before you purchased golf. If we wouldn't have passed a foursome, golf etiquette says faster players play through. We would not have been able to finish 18 holes. Golf costs $129ish early and $89ish midday. Yes, it was $59ish for our tee time, but anyone with common sense would have advised us about the pace of play.

If you're in Denver, play this course. Beautiful layout, picturesque everywhere you are. Some holes are challenging, some are scorable. Elevation changes, water, wind on a couple of holes. Signature 13th, par 3, elevated, measured 165-170 yards, 135yards with slope. Choose clubs wisely!! Only real issue were the greens. Even with lag putting, ball kept rolling 3, 4 feet past hole. Many hidden undulations. Club attendants are second to none here. Played in about 4 hours. If you can stand the summer sun, afternoon round is more than worth the price.

Look I’m not one to complain about speed of greens but something is up with greens that 3 7-10 handicappers almost 3 putted every green. Very inconsistent and made harder by ruff around the greens that where way to high and lush. The course is beautiful as can be and the layout was Awsome

Hands down the most scenic course, but an expected 4:45 round was lengthened by a group of inpatient guys who thought there was an opening ahead of us...even though we were waiting each hole already. Not one ranger on the course..unacceptable for such a high quality course. Didn’t help either that they allow “riders” of golfers to come along, so we had a bro and sis with their female partner/friend chatting away while we putted, on more than one occasion...they paid a $25 ride along fee, we just got the aggravation of nice people who knew nothing about etiquette...have to come here with a foursome and pray they hire a ranger..

Great scenery, good conditions. 5 hours and 40 minutes led to a very frustrating round of golf. Worker says it paces at 4:45 which is too long for a round anyway. Probably a course to experience once, but plan on all day.

Your round will be slow. Everyone keeps taking pictures

You will too. Breathtaking at every hole.

We played for the first time May 13 and the course was very challenging -- especially the greens. We enjoyed the variety of experiences on all the holes.

Not an everyday type of course for average golfers, but an awesome change-of-pace with amazing views.

This is the most beautiful course I’ve ever seen, played, even heard of!! Each and every hole is more picturesque than the last. If you are anywhere near this course, PLAY IT!!!

The course was in great shape. I would strongly everyone to play this course at least once a year. The views from every tee is just great.

Early spring conditions but was in great shape for this time of year. The traps (4,9,15) I was in had sand which in Colorado is a nice surprise). My only disappointment was that the aeration had not recovered enough to have predictable putts
