Heather Ridge is an older course that has gone through a lot of positive changes the past 4-5 years. A short par 70 track that is tight and requires accurate shots on many holes. They have put some money in to the course to upgrade nearly everything. The grounds, cart paths, sprinklers, etc have all resulted in big improvements. There are some limitations such as a small driving range with mats and irons only. The snack shack is very limited in food offerings but Noonan's upstairs is a full restaurant and bar that you have access to.

This is not a dig on HR, but it isn't one of the top courses in the area. Don't confuse it with Bear Dance, The Ridge or even Red Hawk Ridge, Saddler Rock, and others. However, for the price it's a fun place to play and the conditions are nice.

I love coming to The Raven. The course is beautiful, the staff is friendly, and of course the views are amazing. It's a surprisingly quick drive from the Denver metro area and a nice change of pace from the usual courses. They have some nice specials at times so be on the lookout for those. Treat yourself, you'll be glad you did.
