Pine Creek Golf Club

After many years of drought that took a toll on courses and conditions all across the area, Pine Creek has rebounded and is in great shape. The pace of play was a bit slow but it gave us plenty of time to assess the next shot and minimize errors in course management. Greens were in great shape and although the bunkers still had rain damage from a recent downpour the day before, we had a great round. Fairways were lush, rough was penal, so it encouraged staying in the short grass. Well worth the 29 bucks to walk it!

I hadn't played this course since last year. When I arrived I was told I had to pay again even though I paid Golf Now, because I did not have receipt with me.

After teeing off 20 minutes late, we waited 5 to 10 minutes on every shot.

After hitting out of bounds from the tee, I correctly teed a second ball and hit what was my 3rd shot with the penalty. The ranger lady was watching me and yelled No Mulligans! I was hitting 3rd shot!

No wonder the course was so backed up, incompetent help from the top down. I guess all they really care about is the great $$$$

Classic target golf. The rough was brutal and made looking for balls problematic. Play with someone who knows the course, it will save you strokes, time, and golf balls. I would hesitate to come back just because the pace of play was so slow. Not a course for high handicappers!

The views are magnificent. Pikes Peak and the front range. The course was in very good condition. The greens became a little hard in the pm. Nice and quiet setting. I will return several times. I really like the course. This was my 1st time here.

Course is in great shape. Interesting layout with lots of target golf keeps you on your toes. Not a boring course. Great views.

This course was average at best. Condition was on the low side. Greens were shaggy and very slow. Winds through a housing development but there was ample room to hit shots even if they were not perfect. I would probably skip it if I were in the area to play again.

The views of the mountains were gorgeous, very good fairway and greens. Greens were inconsistent, some fast, some super slow but good condition. Overall I loved the course but not having a driveable fairway on hole 1 and 18 irks me

great course with beautiful views. always in good shape.

Pine Creek is a well-maintained residential course with great views of Pikes Peak, the Garden of the Gods and the Front Range. Much of the course is left "natural" to save on maintenance and water usage. Unfortunately this tends to slow down play as golfers look for their balls in knee high natural grass in creeks and alongside fairways in the rough. For example on the first hole, a short par 4, there are two creeks and average golfers who are not warmed up normally hit their balls in both creeks and spend quite a bit of time looking for their balls (usually in vain) which immediately backs up play. With the exception of the 18th hole, the course favors right handed players that draw the ball as most fairways drop away from left to right, the par 5 6th hole, the number one handicap hole being a prime example. The signature hole is probably the downhill 15th with great mountain views. The 11th green also has great views of Pikes Peak back down the center of the long fairway. The course is laid out on an east-west axis with the first 4 holes being downhill, 5 through 13 being uphill and 14 through 18 being downhill. Although the course can be walked, it's a long uphill slog from 5 through 13 and a cart is certainly appreciated, at least on these holes. Attractive homes line the course and fairways can be tight with greens slightly smaller than average. The greens normally putt at a medium speed. Pine Creek is a nice course to play, it's an attractive well-maintained course with great views, but because of all the natural areas slowing down play, be sure to allocate at least 5 hours when it's busy.

Fairways need help. Generally good, but bare spots or winter kill on many of the holes.

Greens were excellent, but very slow. Stimp meter of 8 or less.

Sand traps were hard and needed to be fluffed! Not true sand shots around the greens.

Course marshals were always present, helpful and encouraging!

Course is improving. Had weather during round, but were able to play threw it

Neat course, tests you right off the bat with the first tee box. Although, we were putting on the beach. That being said, it was a personal best round so I'll definitely be back.

This track is awkward at best. You find yourself hitting to a spot on nearly every hole, so that you are limited on what you can do off the tee. I don't like that -- I like choices -- risk/reward options, etc. There are WAY too many bunkers. The greens were in decent shape, but every green had more than one hole in it which I have never seen before. The course was in OK shape as this is still off-season for Colorado Springs. The staff is really friendly. No beer cart girl anywhere on the course. At $26 for 18 riding -- it was a great deal, but I doubt I'd play this course anytime soon.

The course was in good shape for it being nearly the end of November. It was as challenging as ever, but a great time. I would recommend this course to any one that wants to test their game. Looking forward to playing there again.

Pet peeve of mine when golfers do not repair the ball marks on the green and these greens were full of them.

Enjoyable round on a nice November day. The course is in good shape for this time of year, and the greens were still rolling fast. It is a challenging course for first time players, as important to know the lay of the holes for shot placement. Nice mix of shorter and longer holes and uphill and downhill. Overall, very enjoyable round!

It is a nice course with a great view the pace was a little slow and a very challenging course especially if you don't hit the fairways

overall great course for the price. One of my favorite coursesm in the Colorado Springs area

Other than the greens having been sanded, the course was in good shape. It is a challenging but fair test of golf.

Good test, difficult but fair, has some really good holes , not to tricked up
