Plum Creek Golf & Country Club

Nice, well thought-out course by Pete Dye. Fairways are tighter than they look from the tee boxes, as they are elevated. Some pins looked hidden from the fairway, much visual deception. Greens are in good shape, and getting better from the recent aeration. Some par 3 tee boxes are a little beat up. Overall, I very good golfing experience.

Maybe at certain times of the year this course falls out of favor in terms of conditions, because I've read a lot of bad reviews about it. However, when I played there this past weekend, it was gorgeous! Hardly a brown spot anywhere on the course. Greens were in great shape and the fairways were perfectly manicured better than most courses' greens are! Beautiful layout! It was a challenging course that made me have to stop and think a couple of times, but it was a really fun course to play! Staff was really friendly as well.
When my friends and I first decided to play there last weekend, I was a little put off by the $75 green fee. I was going to be really upset if some of the other reviews held true about the conditions and I payed $75 to play a course that was in terrible shape. However, after playing it, I can see that it's maybe only a little overpriced. I will play here on occasion because $75 green fees are little more than I would like to spend, but it'll be a nice treat when I do have a little extra money! All in all a good experience!

there were so many bare spots and the dandelions are a true issue. From the tee box to the green. nice course needs help and some work. some tee boxes very difficult to get to

This course layout is one of the best you will find around. Greens are in great shape, and very challenging. You gotta go out and play this course at least once this year.

Understanding that this course has had some significant financial issues, they really need to price themselves more in line with the current quality of the course. The fairways and greens are in okay shape, but the rough is in serious need of repair. You are pretty much guaranteed to be in a hole if you miss the green as the grass is extremely clumpy. This really doesn't help on a Pete Dye design where you have many downhill chips.

Much improved over last few years. Conditions are being improved. Nice to see on this wonderful course

The course has long, wide open fairways with challenging greens and par 3's.

grounds and common areas a bit rough around the clubhouse but once you're on the course that's forgotten... always a fun track.

Enjoy the challenge of this course, acceptably maintained and very friendly staff.

Plum Creek GC was in great shape for being early season, however the greens are just aerated as of 5/14/13. Pace of play was excellent; we didn't have to wait on any tee, although keep in mind it was a Tuesday.

The staff was cordial during the limited interaction I had with them. But this was good because all I had to do was check in, take a cart key and I was on my way. It was 2 minutes from car to tee.

The value was excellent. $27 per person for 18 and a cart. Can't beat it.

I should have know $45 for 18 holes and a cart on a Sat was to good to be true. Once a country club, now feels like a run down muni course. Not sure what happened here but this place is in serious need of some TLC. Almost needed 4WD to get to the clubhouse the driveway had so many pot holes, greens were still sandy and bumpy from being aerated weeks ago, dead patches of grass ALL over the course, no sand in the bunkers, no ball washers, minimal yardage markers, no operating kitchen and no beer on tap. Staff was friendly including Bev cart gal, but only saw her once over 18 holes. Views are still great and any golf is good golf but it was sad to see the condition of this place. Some simple maintenance would be such a huge improvement to a beautifully designed Pete Dye course.

While I was happy to get 50% off through GolfNow, Plum Creek was in terrible condition. First of all, the aeration done on the course's greens was of very poor quality and whoever does the greenskeeeping did not follow up correctly after it was done. Second, the amount of sand that was on the greens was laughable. Completely saturated. Of course I understand that courses go through maintenance periods during their opening and closing periods, but this was not like that. It was almost like the greenskeeper (if you want to call him/her that) googled how to prepare greens and then upped the recipe by three times.

I think this would be a great course with the right maintenance. But I will not play it again.

Greens were just aerated and this was not posted on GolfNow. Tee boxes and fairways were in pretty good shape but the aerated greens pretty much ruined the round of golf.

Greens were covered with sand. I am sure the greens are excellent later in the year but definitely not worth money right now.

Aerition of the greens is always noted on golfnow tee times and thus I will always book a time at another course. WE HAD NO NOTIFICATION that the greens had been aerated less than a week before out tee time. I wouldn't pay $10 to play on those horrible greens at Plum Creek, let alone the $55 we did pay!! Pete Dye would take his name off as the designer, if he played his course in this condition. I understand the absolute need for aerification, but don't over charge players undisclosed conditions.

What makes Plum creek such an interesting course is the mixture of challenging par 3s along with three of the best finishing holes in Colorado. Numbers 16-18 wrap themselves around water. Playing the course several times will help with getting distances right on quite a few elevated tee boxes into small par three greens. The staff was really friendly and the breakfast burrito was very tasty with a great deal going on with cerveza.

Usually when the greens on a course are being aerated or have recently been aerated, it is noted on the golfnow website and I wouldn't book the tee time. My recent tee time did not show that the course was being aerated and I didn't find out until I got to the course. Needless to say I wasn't too happy with golfnow for not having the aerated symbol on the tee times for this course. This is the second time this has happened to me. It would be nice if you could keep your website a little more accurate.

Great day of golf! Never crowded and easily played with plenty of Birdie chances and challenges to bring you back!

We played Plum Creek in the first week of April. As with all courses in the Denver Metro area, the lack of "Spring weather" up until now has not yet allowed courses to become visually appealing. This is no exception. However, the fairways were mowed uniformly and the greens rolled pretty smooth. Be prepared, several of the greens are smallish and all are very tricky. Deep greenside bunkers. A good time was had and we wil be back.

I was surprised at how good the course was after the winter.
The greens rolled smooth and true as in mid summers form.
The staff were very friendly and when I asked about the course they were able to give me a couple of tips on how to play the course which saved me a couple of strokes.
Tim and the staff are first class.
I will be back...
