About

Holes 18
Type Public
Par 72
Length 7007 yards
Slope 134
Rating 72.1

The Raccoon Creek Golf Course is a public, 18-hole golf course in Littleton. It covers 7,045 yards from its longest tees and plays to a par of 72. The course has some difficult elements, such as elevation changes, but it is still beginner-friendly. Water hazards come into play on seventeen holes. The most difficult hole of the course, one of the most difficult in Colorado according to the Colorado Golf Associates, is the par-3 17th hole. The hole runs alongside a creek, the creek that the course is named after, and requires a shot over a portion of it to a very well protected green.

I am happy with Raccoon now after losing excitement about it recently

I started to get the Raccoon pass 10+ years ago and this is the place where I got better after hacking for 3+ decades. Guys like Don Graham, Pait Tait and many other made this place fun to be at and it is for sure a good course and as this is a course rating, for the course alone it is a 4-5 for sure. But....in recent year, there seemed to be a lineup of old ornery guys(I am 59 so I can say this) working at the course. Some I have known for a while and they are great, others not so much and the latter have made the customer service there less than optimal at times. We were having a great round, then we ran into one of the angry ones and was about to quit on Raccoon (one of my guys who was there for the first time was about to leave at the turn) but, had a good chat with Don and my faith in this place is restored and I am sure he will help elevate the customer experience further. Suggestions

1) - If I book on GolfNow, make sure the desk folks know that if it is a regular booking (Not a hotdeal) that I likely will be using a pass. When my guest comes, don't make him pay full rack when he has told you already he will be a guest on a pass and politely tell him to wait until the passholder arrives to be sure. If the passholder does not show, by all means rack rate!

2) - You really do need water on the course to drink

3) - I like good rangers that keep the pace of play going! Much better than courses that do not manage pace at all but, just a bit more awareness of customer interactions would be good.

I/we will be back and I trust guys like Don to keep this place going forward.

Arrive early and expect a long day

This venue is used for weddings & events. Parking was limited and very far from the clubhouse. No bag drop signs were available and cart staff did not assist with patrons parking at the bottom of the hill, far from the clubhouse. The kitchen was closed due to the event and restaurant seating was mostly limited to a very loud inside area. The front 9 played smoothly, but the pace on the back 9 was miserably slow. Multiple fairways and holes were visible at most places while playing the back. It felt crowded and painfully slow. This wasn't the full-day golf and dining experience that I expect for the price.

3 hours for 9 because I gave up

Honesty, I love the course itself. It took 3 hours to play the front. Marshall told us it was because of a tournament, like we should understand. Mismanaged time and packing people in.

They also put a lunatic in my cart with me that was telling me about his stock portfolio fir 3 hours. Buy a few more carts guys. Bush league.

When you tee off at 2:00 on a 95 degree day and manager knows play is slow, give out some drinks, have honest conversations, give people the option not to tee off.

So disgusted I did not go in for a 9 hole rain check. If they argued I know I would of lost my temper. I feel ripped of. Did get an eagle on 9 though.

Get it together folks.

Fun Course

Had a great time golfing here. Lots of fun and challenging holes. Green had a lot of action, but not to

fast to make it difficult. The only downside was pace of play, took over 5 hrs to play (only one beverage cart, which we saw once).

Great course, pace sucks

I played two rounds at this course on the 18th…..my first round in the morning we spent 25 minutes between #10 and #11 due to a shotgun start of a tournament….no one came by and even looked at what was going on. My second round in the evening took five hours waiting at multiple holes for over ten minutes…..never saw a single starter/ranger drive around the entire 18….this course is awesome, but maybe think about warning people about tournaments and how slow things are when they pay full price.
