Pine Creek Golf Course is part of the La Plata Communities in Colorado Springs. The course winds through the Pine Creek Valley, providing a lush and varied landscape. The course sprawls across high plains grasslands with abundant trees and lakes coming into play throughout. The seemingly gentle terrain has tricky undulations that total over 375 feet of elevation changes. The front is a canyon-style nine while the back is more of an American links design. There are creek beds coming into play on nearly every hole as well as strategically placed bunkers. In addition to the challenging round, the golf course offers stunning views of Pikes Peak, the Front Range, and the entire Colorado Springs skyline. At Pine Creek there is also a unique elevated, target-oriented grass driving range, a practice green, and a short game area.

• 9-hole play is welcomed on a walk-in basis. 9-hole reservations available starting 1pm Mon-Thur & 3pm Fri-Sun.

• Junior rates are available by walk-in only and cannot be reserved in advance.

• While playing alone inquiries are always welcomed, groups may be asked to pair up when appropriate.

• Rain checks are valid 30 days. Thank you for rescheduling.

No Replay Rate

I like this course and drove from denver to play it again / especially since a year ago we were done early and wanted to replay and they charged us a cart fee / around $15 to replay it again in the afternoon/ We finished early again this time and asked for a replay and they wanted full 18 hole rate again to replay... the course had basically nobody on it either .. and we may not even finished the round as the days are getting shorter. I asked why we got a replay rate before and the starter just blew us off and said he doesn't do that.

One of the best in the Springs

This course never disappoints me. Bunkers are soft, fairways are forgiving. Greens have just the right amount of break and challenge. Carts have club and ball washers built into them. The staff even gave us a cooler to keep our drinks cold. I come back here time and time again for a reason.

Enjoyed The Round!

Played the course while visiting the area from Southern California. We enjoyed the layout - it was challenging enough without penalizing us. Most tees and all of the fairways and greens were in great shape. Bunkers? Not so much. Looks like they have taken a beating from recent rains and they were in pretty rough shape. Hopefully they will be brought up to match the rest of the course soon. Staff in the pro shop, the starter, and the beverage cart were all very friendly and helpful. Recommend you give this course a try if you're in the area.

Walked

Nice course in Colorado Springs

I walked the front and rode on the back - this is my only criticism -- it's a difficult walk because of the distance between holes, especially on the back. Otherwise it was a nice track with excellent greens and a nice variety in the layout. I would play here again if I lived in the area.

Rough is rough.

I had a great day driving the ball and hit a lot of fairways. Unfortunately this was not the case for the 3 guys I was paired up with. High handicappers should really leave their driver in the bag on most of the course so as not to slow down play looking for balls that are close to impossible to locate in the native grasses that line every hole. Fairways and greens were in nice shape. Greens were running fast and held approach shots well. Bunkers need some work. Mostly hardpan.

Always a fun round!

This is a great course! Great condition other then the 10th hole got a portion of the hole fairway taken away by the rain!! Kudos to the maintenance crew for getting a temporary fix to the issue.

Interesting features that reward the straight hitter

Some narrow fairways and cut-in rough that surprises on certain lines, plus lots of low ravines, sloughs, and native rough can challenge the average golfer. But views are a delight, and the course has enough short par 4s to keep you in the game. Greens were in very good condition, quick, and fair but challenging.

Horrible fathers day

I play this course often and love the layout, but had the worst Father's Day experience in recent memory this year. Took my son out with me and tee times were delayed 30 minutes, with the from nine taking literally 3 hours. That is not an exaggeration. It was the worst pace of play I've ever experienced, and couldn't have been more disappointed. Didnt even get to finish my round.

Wind: Make or Break

Overall: Great Course, well designed and tended.

The key with this course is the wind. The front nine is at a higher elevation and is very exposed to the wind. That said, the layout is a little more forgiving, even on windy days. The back nine much lower and appears to be a bit more protected, but the layout is so tight at times, that anything more than a 10 MPH wind can reek havoc, especially holes a strong West/SouthWest wind, since holes 6 through 13 are narrow and play directly into that wind.

I play this course almost monthly throughout the year and always enjoy it. Greens are true and quick. The rough is much heavier that you get with many courses in the Springs. Think lush grass, that even though trimmed, will make you feel like you are playing an overwatered course back East.

There are a lot of lateral hazards, yards, trees, bunkers, etc. to challenge just about every shot, from tee to green. A few sloping fairways, blind shots, and false fronts makes it nice to play with someone who can point out the potential hazards.

Even though it technically possible to reach most of the Par 5s in two, narrow fairways off a drive, or well guarded greens usually end up rewarding the prudent play.
