The golf course at the Arrowhead Golf Club has been declared the top public course in Denver in the past by Golf Digest, as well as one of the top 75 public courses in the nation. The towering red sandstone rock formations are a trademark of the course, providing a unique and beautiful atmosphere, which is further enhanced by the abundant wildlife that have made the course their home. The rolling terrain provides elevation changes and undulation to the greens. Water hazards and bunkers also come into play on the course. Arrowhead Golf Club's signature hole is the par-3 13th hole. It is a steep, downhill hole with scenic views.

Great views, tricky greens

Excellent course with phenomenal views. The best I've ever seen playing golf. Greens on the front nine slope a lot. Easy to lose balls, so bring plenty of ammo. And pace was a little slow on the front. But a wonderful course.

Expensive, Challenging, Beautiful Views

The course itself was in good condition, but I wouldn't call it excellent. There was a lot of ground under repair and areas that weren't great. The greens were nice but not fast. Overall, I'd say I've played nicer courses for the kind of money they charge. But, playing in the red granite peaks was very cool for a Midwesterner. The views were beautiful and they had some very challenging holes where you have to play around/over the granite.

Red Rocks golf

Beautiful course in the red rocks. Narrow fairways. Fast, smooth greens. 5 hour round. Windy until 10:00 am. Cart girls make frequent stops for drinks, etc. Nice restaurant with views. Big menu.

Greens were pitiful fairways and Teeboxes shaggy at least an inch to inch and half long

I was told they plug the greens six weeks ago and they're still pitiful on the back nine I didn't even bother putting any more waste of time

Fairways and tee boxes were very shaggy teeboxes were so long you could literally put a long tee in the ground and your ball was barely above the grass

This course has a long way to go to be worth $120 green fees that they command

Only Plus this course has right now is a scenic values second to none

Incredible Views!!!

Got there early and ate lunch. Food was excellent. Service was too. Good variety of beverages.
Driving range is short, nothing but irons allowed. Putting green was crazy fast which was nothing like any of the 18 holes.
The course was in great shape. I got distracted by the scenery and got off in the tall grass a few times on the front...you do not want to be anywhere but in the short grass on this course. If you find it good luck getting it back in play.
Overall I enjoyed the course and would play it again.
The real value and entertainment is in the setting.
We played in the evening. No clouds, no wind, 73 degrees, full moon. I have never seen such incredible rock formations. At times I forgot all about golfing. Luckily there was no one behind us for a few holes and I was able to take a lot of pics.
Not my favorite course in the Denver area to try for a low score but was well worth the trade off.

Very Scenic and Great Condition

Great facilities and excellent condition. Greens are very fast and difficult because of slopes. It is easy to have a downhill putt and not be able to stop it. Most scenic course I have been on so don't let the 3 putts (or 4) bother you and enjoy the course. There is a reason it is 6,300 yes and has a slope of 135 from mid tees. My only complaint is that this course is a popular wedding site and we had to wait 15 minutes on 9th tee waiting for bride and groom to finish having pictures taken.

The most visually stunning course I've ever played

This course is just amazing! You almost don't believe it until you see it. The pace of play was a little slow but that was mainly because we were taking so many pictures. You think you died and went to golf heaven. This course Is the must play in the Denver area! On top of the scenery the course is in great shape. I can't wait to play it again!!

Great Views, but over-rated

The views are spectacular, and the course has personality. Greens and fairways in great shape.

Couple of issues:
No "real" driving range (Irons only)
Packing in tee times.

The day I played, they had two scrambles going on before our tee time. Kinda made the round rushed, then slowed, all day long.
You should play this course, just for the views, but I think it's overrated, and overpriced....

Beautiful Course

A fun course to play with amazing red rocks towering over you on the back 9. The views are great and some of the wholes are quite picturesque. A little pricy, but a nice place to play a round of golf. The greens are a difficult read in places.
