Shining Mountain Golf Club

Challenging course with narrow fairway and unforgiving rough.

Greens were in great shape and rolled well however it was cart path only which slows down play. Fairways in bad shape and cart paths are simply dangerous due to lack of maintenance.

None of us had played this course in a few years. It was in pretty good shape, tees and fairways are good, greens were reasonably soft just a little slow but not terrible. It is a narrow course so lots of target shots. It was hot down in Colorado Springs that day so nice to be in 75 degree and perfect weather. Fun to play here again and we'll come back again before it gets too much like fall.

Been there several times. Good to get out of Colorado Springs, but the front 9 took almost 3 hours. Frankly just ridiculous.

One of our players is handicapped, so not knowing ahead of reserving tee time that the course is "CART PATH ONLY" was a problem.

The course is in excellent shape, but very challanging. The narrow fairways slows the play a little bit because someone is always looking for balls. We were very happy because the 2 gentlemen we were playing with knew the course. Otherwise it would have been difficult at times trying to find the next tee box.

Shot a 56 today. Super nice course with lots of tricky greens. Long par 5s offer a challenge but shorter par 3s make birdie chances attainable. Shot a 46 on the other 9.

Slow greens and cart path only on all holes were the only negatives

We went through GolfNow to register for our tee time of 10':45 for 9 holes and when we checked in at the pro shop we were told we would be playing the front nine with just the two of us. When we arrived at the 1st hole tee box there was a group of 4 men there and they said they were part of a tournament that had started on the 9th hole and they had just made the turn to tee off on 1. Went back to pro shop and they said to go off the 9th hole, we went back that way and there was another couple waiting there who said they we told to go off 1 at 10:45 also. Since the tournament was long gone from the 9th we said let's just all play off the 9th. So the pro shop gave us both the wrong information that created some stress and a lot of back and forth. The couple had just got married and the wife was just along for the ride. The guy was young and hitting off the black tee markers, while we are older and hitting white and yellow tee markers. There wasn't anyone ahead of us or behind so we just sent them off ahead to play alone, as we did. The course is challenging, particularly since there were no carts allowed off the cart path, making for a lot of walking. I nearly had to walk the whole course because it was easier to walk the fairway than to walk back to the cart and back so many times. I was exhausted, but we had a great time. It was my birthday and we stopped for refreshments at the course restaurant. About 10 minutes after we got there the rain started coming down hard and lasted for about a half hour. By the time we left the rain had past and we headed home. Perfect timing there, and a good time was had!

Only 2 of the staff were wearing masks but the customers were expected to have one on when entering the clubhouse.

The lady would not look to find out she told me the go play golf had a lot of restriction and their was no payment so long story short I did not play I would like a refund and I am playing at madd russian 7/7 Milken co.can you apply my refund to the madd russian

Ridiculous for this course to be cart path only in the middle of the summer. Fairways were dry---no standing water. Cart path only adds time and makes it impossible for singles.

Should just close the driving range---it's a complete joke!

I would never pay full price for this course. The carts on path only makes it extremely difficult to find balls, and there is not enough of a discount for walking the course. To expensive overall.

Showed up for tee time and was told by an unfriendly man in a cart that I would have to go off the back 9. When I made the turn to go to the front 9 there were three groups waiting to tee off of hole #1. Decided to get a rain check for the second 9, which they gave me only when I requested. Professionalism is sorely lacking at this course.

Tee time was 12:15 and they were sending everyone off the back nine first for the day; so they said. My partner and I finished the back nine around 2:00 and was going to the first hole only to find out we had three groups waiting to tee off. I went to the pro shop to find a different employee who didn't know anything about what we were told. We tried to play the back nine again but it had people coming off of number 9; I just went home.
