Rude players

Slow play on a very hot day. Group behind us were very inpatient, one player hit into us and wanted to play thru despite the course being totally caked up.

Poor value/ overpriced

Have played this course many times over the years. In the past it was a good value. Since Covid and perhaps different management the course is NOT a positive experience. The back nine is riddled with ruts from Javelins (wild boars). The manager, Diego, is a little despot ordering staff like a little dictator. The green fees are extreme trying to recover the lost revenue from Covid..This course needs to be more user friendly and get “Real” about it’s rates and services.

Very dry but tolerable

Have always enjoyed this course. Unfortunately the course could not sprinkle for two and a half weeks, which caused damage. I am certain the course will recover very shortly. Still had a nice time with my best girl.

Time will tell

Played on a Monday afternoon, unfortunately the round was spoiled by 4 ladies walking the course. Not suggesting sexism, as everyone should enjoy the game especially if they choose to walk. The back nine was totally open, the starter should have allowed people to play the back nine first avoiding the situation.
This course is well designed and with proper management and development it will be a gem.

Thank you for the feedback. We are sorry to hear you didn't enjoy a 4 or 5 star experience. In reviewing the GPS system and tee sheets from the day, we had no pace of play issues on the golf course and the AVG pace for all groups this day of play was 4 hours and 4 minutes, beating the standard pace of play of 4 hours and 20 minutes. Starting tee times are only sent off Hole #1 and we couldn't have accommodated back nine play as there was constant play turning to the back nine. We hope this doesn't deter you from returning to Plantation Lakes and thank you again for the feedback!

Slow play, poor conditions.

Great weather, very slow play. After 3 1/2 hours and 12 holes we threw in the towel. Course is located in a very beautiful area, however the construction noise and the construction obstacles ruin the aura. Management needs to adjust the green fees to compensate for the above. Better values can be found!

Slow play with a noisy layout

Beautiful afternoon, course located near busy roads with noise and construction. Very slow play, after 3 1/2 hours finished 12 holes, "threw in the towel"! I realize the season is short in this particular area of Colorado, however management should adjust the green fees accordingly, and not just jam all the golfers on the course to squeeze profits. Better courses with better conditions and rates can be found.

Bad "lies" from the management.

The end of a once great course. Management really ruined a once great, challenging course. Conditions are poor, staff not very cooperative, close this course and avoid future embarrassement.

Bad Lies

Have played this course in the past. Extremely disappointed this time. Course has really gone downhill. Fairways in poor condition, bad lies throughout the course, staff lacks concern for the public. The course should be closed ASAP.

A Perfect Day !!

Take a beautiful day of weather during mid- December, mix with your #1 gal, add a couple of beers and a cigar and it dose not get much better. Add a birdie and a par for my partner on the #2 handicap hole and you have a perfect day. The experience could not have been better.

The course has challenging features. Fairway maintainence lacking.

Good value for the money. Greens in good shape, fairways need attention. Would definitely play the course again
