Front Nine Crowded Back Nine Challenging

It is really hard to rate the overall course. Overall the course is beautiful with many challenging holes, but it could be laid out a little nicer. The front nine has a few holes that are stacked on top of each other. However, when you get to the back nine, it feels like you have changed courses all together for you hardly ever can see individuals playing the neighboring holes due to the mountains and valleys that the holes are placed. If you have ever played Redlands Mesa in Grand Junction, the back nine here has a similar design and feeling. Overall, we had a great time and we will return for future play. If you only go to play nine, the back is the prettier and more challenging of the two.

Best Ever

I have played Rifle Creek Golf Course for 20 years twice a year.

Last week we played twice and by far the course was in the best condition I’ve ever experienced. The is a delightfully challenging short course with vistas which will make you stop and pull out the cameras.

The pro shop and restaurant is well managed and well stocked.

The front nine is like many city courses...relatively flat, lots of mature trees, and native grasses to avoid. However, the back nine takes you to many elevated tee boxes, blind drives, and a need for tight course management. Views are awesome.

Rifle Creek

Front nine is a pretty average layout, but the back gets pretty interesting with a lot of elevation change up and down. Absolutely beautiful views both front and back. A “Must Play” if you’re in the area!

Getting a little rough….

Love the location and course, it just needs some maintenance done. Cart paths are sad . A little to expensive for the course conditions.

Small town course mom pop cousrse

Good hospitality with a hometown feel. Greens do not hold a shot. They are very firm! Front side pretty much flat and out in front of you. Back side in the canyons. Fun and entertaining.
