Just know one of the hardest Par 5’s on the front range number 13 has been reduced to a Par 3 due to eagles nesting. Not sure that a good thing for my game but a great thing for wildlife. So let’s give them some peace and move around slowly and quietly and enjoy the round.
Greens for this time of year are fantastic and despite a tough winter on other areas, the staff is working hard with repairs where needed.
The restaurant is up and running quite well.
As far as I and many others I talk to this is in the top 10 of difficult courses on the front range. It’s very difficult to recover from errant shots so take the challenge and have fun!

This is a public course that is dynamic, fun, and in as good shape as any private course.
The staff treated me like I was a member on a private course.
In particular the Marshall was extremely helpful and took time and effort with me to deal with my disabilities.
Ample water for drinking and buckets to clean clubs.
This course was in outstanding condition and layout is always fun. While it may not be the most challenging it does take a couple rounds to benefit the layout.

Had to wait for a cart. Don’t forget you need a visitor pass at a different gate. With registration and proof of insurance.
So if you want to get some practice in go early.
Course has a great layout. Wide fairways and large greens make it better for my struggling game.
Course is in fantastic shape.
Bring your mosquito repellent and have a great time

Range was closed for reconstruction. Lots of remodeling. All signs of a great place down the line. Was cart path only. Tough for a 66 year old disabled senior. And its one of the toughest walks on the front range. However, I desperately needed the workout. Im not sure cart path only was necessary and slows the pace significantly. But I will quit my crying .
One of the great layouts you will find on the front range. And when most of the sand traps have steps in them, you’ll realize that its going to be a tough day. Having the option of a blue/white tee really is a nice touch..
Practice your hillside shots. This is a true links course. And although the greens a large the undulation will challenge the best.
Great views and numerous hawk watching along with a great staff makes for a memorable day.

Course was in great condition for this time of year and having just had a snowstorm three days ago. A little late start due to frost. Which is expected this time of year. Starter did a fantastic job of maneuvering and managing the golfers. Pace was excellent with not one wait. Greens were hard and frozen a couple inches down. Two had a tiny area of snow. They soften up once the sun hits them fairly quickly despite it never got above 50 degrees. Only one green had any show of aeration and they were smooth, true and in the top 5 that I’ve played in the last two months. And I play frequently and hit many different courses. They also do a fantastic job of clearing leaves and goose crap. Played with some wonderful people and the lady behind the bar mixed a fantastic Irish coffee to warm me up prior to tee off.

Great mature course with no houses, condos or roads nearby. Great greens!

Maybe it goes hand in hand with Denver people who are younger, more irresponsible, less caring, etc... but these greens are like the lunar surface. To bad for such a good course

November 7th in Colorado and the course is in perfect shape. Fairways like velvet. Greens outstanding. Go figure!
But the course management here is top notch. And they take pride in there work.
The pro shop staff is also excellent and I would certainly recommend the course pros to help sharped up your game.
Sounds like an advertisement but they deserve it.

Love the course. Has a very nice variety of different holes. Some you need the big dog, some you need a fairway wood of the tee.
Dispite wandering thru condos on many holes, it’s very reasonable and challenging at the same time. Number 7 a par 5 that is a zig zag, requires a plan of attack on every hole.
Today I played with a group of three. Great guys but we were extremely slow. The ranger (yes a ranger) was on us a little. Rightfully so! One of the guys gave him a little unwarranted crap. I apologized to the ranger, then a few holes later, I smacked a pulled hybrid off a tree and hit the Marshal sign on the front windshield of his cart. I’m not sure I’ll be invited back. I don’t think he gets paid enough for this abuse.
But he took it quite well which is very surprising.
I apologized yet again and tried to save bogey! Lol

Been playing this course for over 40 years. And yes its even more mature than me. This is the classic park type course. Its got a few more hills than Denver courses, and trees as well. Only a couple holes with lakes, but there is a creek running thru a couple holes as well that actually comes into play depending on your level. Little sand however. Nice park layout.
The best part about this course is it’s in excellent shape. It’s maturity and great grounds staff shine. Fairways and greens are as perfect as you can get. Although the fairways have a fair amount of room, you still need to do some course management as many of the tree are mature and big as well. Greens are fairly flat and good size. They do have several nice dogleg holes as well that make it fun.
Restaurant is good for after your round with a nice deck to overlook the course. Also they have a pretty nice pro shop.
A nice touch is that they have towel buckets were they have the drinking water buckets through out the course.
Don’t forget the par 3, and executive 9 courses as well.
Thanks Foothills for going back to being able to book as a single on the championship 18 thru Golf Now. Your sure to see me more!

Osprey nesting was just a great addition to a fun round.
Course was in excellent shape. Fairways were as good as they get. Greens also in fine condition.
Clubhouse is just getting redone after a fire. It looks like it will be very nice when complete!
Staff was very friendly.
Course is flat with almost all the greens raised. But little undulations with a few exceptions. Fairways are narrow. But not much trouble if you miss other than linger grass. A few trees and a couple holes with water, but even my poor sliced drives were impacted.
I think it was hole 14, a par 3, which is in my opinion the courses best hole. It’s fairly long and well bunkered. But is also the more st scenic.
My only recommendation to the course is to offer a warm up bucket at $4 or $5 bucks.. They just had a medium and large.
The practice green is fairly large and nice for chipping a few as well.

Was able to go out for 18 with my son. Was my Father’s Day gift. Included, thanks to him, beer and chips. I raised him right!
Course is a little rough and flat. Large greens, few bunkers, one pond that’s not an issue, and porta potties.
But it’s a fun wide open course that is just plain fun and interesting and generally a bargain.
Employees are nice and make sure to have lunch as they make a great sandwich.
However, rumor is it might be sold, and much like the rest of Denver every bit of green is doomed for condo’s, 7 elevens and Starbucks.
Except the tops of buildings which are legislated to have a soccer field or garden of beans grown on them. I’m waiting for the first lawn mower to run off a 14 story high rise to their death, or crush some poor sap below. And you’ll need flood insurance if the sprinkler system breaks.
Anyway to loose this jewel would be a huge loss to the nearby residents and even those of us that drive an hour to get there.

This course is top 10 layout of public courses in the metro area. But the greens are tough. Several have ridiculous undulations and pin placement is a key.
The greens thanks to temps in the 20's at night are starting to go onto winter mode. So the challenge gets better.
Rest of course is still in excellent condition and new rebuild of clubhouse and restaurant is great.
Staff is friendly and over all experience is always top of the list!

This is an executive course. Front nine runs thru some condos but is still well laid out. Back nine is park like with a nice layout as well.
Course is almost always in excellent condition.
One par 5 on each nine a lot of par 3's with variable yardage. And a few par 4's. Greed a fairly flat and in excellent condition.
Staff is great, including the grounds crew.

For as dry as we've been finally the Gold Course greens are starting to look good. This course is becoming one of my front range favorites. The layout is fantastic. The views spectacular.
The staff is great. Many times if you book a golf now tee time courses are strict about holding you to your start time. This staff so far has been flexible about getting you on the course.
Great facilities and cute beer lady!
All makes for a lot of fun!

I've seen reviews that have been critical about high green fees. I can say that about golf and most anything else in the Denver area the past few years. (Isn't growth great)!
However, this course is in as good of shape for Dec 13 that a course can be in. That includes greens, fairways and rough. And the layout is amongst the best in Denver for a public course. The views from certain areas on the course of Denver and the mountains are stunning!
There is a country club atmosphere at Lone Tree and the staff on this day treated me as a member.
Now if we could get the geese out of Denver to up north where we can hunt them it would be perfection!

You can't beat wearing shorts and short sleeve shirt the middle of Nov. in Denver. The course is in great shape for time of year. Fairways and Greens are in very nice shape. Course is not a very challenging layout. You can spray a drive now and then and still recover for a par. It helps that they have huge greens as well. However, that can also work in reverse as a couple three putts were in my round.
This is a great course to finish the year with potential for good scoring. In fact I'll go back before it snows!

Good staff! Small pro shop but Greg the pro was nice enough to set me up with some Wilson Staff demo irons, gave me a basket of balls and let me test several models! Loved them!
Course is in great shape with the greens almost recovered from aeration a couple weeks ago. Fairways are spectacular and rough is cut for fast play. Back nine is a wonderfull park setting.
Good challenge for an executive course!
I like the variety. Par 3's go from #8 at 85 yards to the Par three #6 and #13 at about 200 yards. Sprinkle in nice Par 4' s and a couple fun Par 5's and you can really sharpen your game.

Everyone stayed home! Had this great layout to myself. Would have helped my score to know the layout, but first time on the Indian and Cottonwood courses was a pleasure. Course was in great shape despite wet conditions due to weekend snow. And deep rough! Views were spectacular and grounds staff were very personable. Can you open up your pond to catch and release bass fishing?

Calm before the storm. Greens are starting to go into winter mode, but rest of course is in fantastic shape. Played with a couple youngsters who can really hit the ball. They said they enjoyed the course as well. I enjoy the variety of the holes that the course offers. You have to think you way around, and position for your approach shots.
Mike in the pro shop is a great friendly and knowledgable person. I'm glad Foothills partners with Golf Now as I enjoy this facility as much as any in the area. And with Golf Now the value is one of the best.
