Love this course!!

I was in town for the holiday and booked my round a few days before via Golfnow. I did a little research and had a suspicion I would like this course. I was blown away by the whole experience. And it was CHEAP. Shout out to the pro and the gentlemen working carts! Greens are small, undulated and we'll protected. Fairways are comfortably wide but still required accurate drives for good looks in. There were a few opportunities to take less than driver off the tee. Play this course!!

Altercation in the Parkin Lot

I can't believe the owner and staff allowed my group to be verbally assaulted by one of the course residents. The fact that this resident had his handgun with him didn't help matters. The resident is a known problem, and yet nothing was done to shield us or warn us. To be clear, my partner hit out of the resident's backyard. The assault that resulted was ridiculous.

Mr. Barr,

Thank you for taking the time to leave your comments.
Since your altercation occurred we have taken measures to ensure it will not happen again. Never would the owners nor staff condone such an incident and to apologize for the unfortunate occurrence. To be more precise though, your group member was trespassing off of golf course property. He also had broken state law by bringing his own alcoholic beverages on the facility and appeared intoxicated. We would love the chance to speak with you further about the matter should you have the time. Please feel free to contact us at Splitrockteetimes@gmail.com

Just not worth it

I get it. The options for golf inside 270 are limited. I wish I'd just driven an extra 10 minutes. The cups hadn't been moved in a while and the edges were furry. The bunkers that didn't have water in them were like cement and filled with golf ball sized rocks. I'm surprised my beater of a cart made it all 18. I'm not surprised the cart was beat considering all the dips and bumps along side the fairways. Lies in the fairways were good as long as you didn't find one of the several grassless spots on each one. And the grounds crew insisting I hit onto the eighteenth green without a pin on it was not how I wanted to end things.

Fairways were in bad shape

I enjoy Blackhawk. its a challenging but fair little track. That said, the fairways were the worst I've seen them in 20 years. I don't know what got them, fungus, bugs etc. But you rarely found yourself on grass in the fairway, and the grass that was there was shaggy. I won't play it again this year.

Play it!

Anytime you get the chance to play a private course you should. And Riviera popping up for less than $50 was a heck of a deal. The rough was thick and the greens were fast.
