Plum Creek Golf & Country Club

Tight course designed by Pete Dye. Target golf on many holes. The driving range was a joke, but the course was in good shape, especially the greens. We enjoyed the course which was challenging. The facilities are in poor shape - signage at holes, buildings, cart paths, practice areas. The views of Castle Rock and mountain ranges were nice.

Not for the high handicapper as there are blind spots that make finding wayward balls a challenge, for a capper at 90 or under then it is an ok to average course. The holes that have water in play are a challenge that pays for the confident player and one of the aspects to this course that makes it enjoyable.

My warm up and practice was intruded on by workman having to do maintenance on the putting green while i was using it and i still had 15 minutes left before i was due to start play.

The driving range does not have clear range distances so for any player trying to get a feel for lengths with their clubs may find that unhelpful.

VERY nice course at a reasonable rate. Friendly, helpful staff. Country Club type atmosphere.

First time playing this course. I liked it because it has some challenging holes and greens. The course itself is still in pretty decent condition, despite some of the bad reviews. It would help if everyone did their part to repair their divots on the greens and fairways. The cart paths got bad reviews---just drive around the bad parts---pretty simple. The only knocks about the course are no water stations or ball washers. Take your own water and a wet towel and you're good to go.

I will bring some friends to play here i love it,
this course has a great features, see ya soon,

We had a great time at plum creek and got a great deal on golfnow.com. played on a Thursday afternoon.

tee boxes, fairways, and greens were in pretty good shape overall. Probably not in as good as shape as it was in its prime but still a good tract.

I read other reviews before I booked that complained about clumpy rough, old carts, poor cart paths, tired clubhouse, and poor range balls. Here's my experience:

* cart was old but it got me around just fine.
* cart paths aren't pristine but who cares and they're not as bad as some people indicated. Those whiners should play some of the courses I used to play in Houston.
*club house is old school and could use updating but the beer was cold, the bartender was friendly, and they had a fine looking BBQ going outside
* clumpy rough. It's rough, it's not supposed to be fairway and there is supposed to be a penalty for being there. fairway and 1st cut were fine
*poor range balls. I didn't hit any and what I saw looked pretty tired but when I do hit them I'm just trying to loosen up. I'm not trying to dial in distances with range balls.

My advice is go and enjoy yourself. It's a fun, challenging course that can usually be played for less money than it's worth..

The course was in great shape. I had read negative reviews, but I paid $60 and it was worth it. Aside from aerated greens, the tee boxes and fairways were in great shape. They had an outdoor grill, and the brat I had was delicious. My buddy and I agreed the layout was fair, not gimmicky (Fossil Trace), and challenging. We played the back tees, and enjoyed our round. I would play there every weekend if the cost were around $50.

The course was adequately price for a weekend rate. The course requires some attention in spots. The staff was friendly and very helpful. Their carts need some work. It felt as though I was off-roading a lot. With a little money and attention this course could be the country club it set out to be.

a one time great course that's been run. into the ground. my first indication it. was going. to. be a bad day was a a group. of 12 guys lading there bags on there carts with. half of them wearing t shirts and even Jean shots..My second indicator was the pro shop it was baron no equipment and only a few items of clothing but for the most part the shelves we're empty. I paid my fee and loaded my bag on my cart. My third indicator.... the carts are old and clapped. out I had to. keep tightening the strap that held my bag it fell out twice.and the alignment was so. bad it sounded like you were skidding around a corner. The range balls were a complete joke out of a small bucket maybe 5 of them had dimples. The course itself was okay but needs quite a bit of work. We got to the 8th tee box after 2 hours and 10 minutes at this time we decided that was enough ...... we got a $15 credit towards our next tree time but I seriously doubt that I will ever go back....A one time beautiful course that's been run into the ground.....

I've played Plum Creek 4 times over 18 yrs I don't know why I don't play it all the time it's a great layout. They do need to put some money in new range balls.

course in great shape, carts and cart paths in terrible shape. THis is just extra text so that I reach the 50 character minimum....

The round lasted over 5 hours and I never once saw a ranger out on the course. Terrible. Had to wait 5 plus minutes at every hole. Worst pace of play I have experienced in a very long time. The course was in good shape but the surrounding items such as concrete, etc. were not maintained either. Great price, $35, but couldn't take another plus 5 hours.

Have not played there in years but it was in the best shape that I have seen it opened....based on my history of various owners and lack of maintenance. Price was great at $40....worth the gas to get there!! Just paid $100 to play Arrowhead....in great shape but not worth the money....would go to Plum Creek for $40...equally challenging and great condition....the view isn't worth $60.

We were charged an extra $5 per round person. The course is in much better shape than last year.

As i have seen in other reviews of this coarse I agree the rough needs attention. 5 feet off the fairway the grass grows in clumps and your ball will most likely be in a "hole" because the rough is not thick enough. we played lift and place so not that big of a deal but if you are a stricked follower of the rules you best stay in the fairway or your life could get tough. Overall, it was well enough maintained for a good round and fun layout. can't beat the price, I would play it again any time.

From the golf carts to the driving range to the course all in need of an upgrade. The driving range is pathetic. You're not hitting real golf balls and those that you are hitting are very, very old.

The ruff is difficult in that there are patches of grass or clumps of grass and then no grass. Your ball could be in a hole because it is surrounded by grass patches.

Barbeque outside was a plus as well as attitude of all staff. Just in need of some work. Not a terrible buy at $70 but just average.

Very slow pace--took us almost 3 hours to finish the front nine...there are no yardage markers on the course, no rangers to speed up play, no drinking water, no ball wash stands, and the concrete cart paths are destroyed--get ready for a bumpy ride. The course isn't in terrible shape, but overall, it was a very negative golf experience.

we played Thursday Morning for $40 a player including the carts. Greens were in great shape.

The greens & fairways were in excellent condition, the tee`s need attention but they aren`t to the point that they affect your game. Range balls are very expensive ($15 for a large bucket). Overall a very challenging course that I would not reccomend for beginners.

Making a last minute Saturday morning tee time I was left with few choices and decided to try Plum Creek.
Yes other reviews are true, the course is not in the best of shape. Fairways need a season or two of over seeding and love.
Greens were on the slow side but in very nice shape. The rough and second cut areas were clumpy and the worst part of the over all course condition.
Playing from the tips this course is challenging and fun. Overall the course is scenic with many holes setting up in a way that makes you feel like your playing a high end tour stop. It is true this used to be TPC course and I can say why. I rated this course 1 star more than it deserves. If the new owner can increase play on the course this could be a top five in Colorado.
