Amazing Golf Course

The two people who gave this one star have no idea what a good golf course is. He didn't enjoy the course, and rates it poor, because he was incapable of playing it and couldn't have fun. He also said the greens we in bad condition, but then said they rolled true and fast. I played on the same day 2 years later. In early September, there are rainstorms that make the low spots soft/mushy. I also was a golf pro in Florida for many years and played/caddied on tour. This course is AMAZING and one of the best maintained courses in Colorado. Any real golfer would understand that this is not a flat, slow municipal course and enjoy the challenges that this course offers. And we haven't even discussed the beautiful scenery...

Very nice golf courses in the beautiful Colorado mountains. Staff and service is as good as it gets anywhere. Greg Norman course is visually an absolut stunner. Fazio course for me was the more fun design. But both coures are nice. Courses are not crowded at all. Only thing that is not perfect is the Greens. Fast, lots of break - ok - but very unpredictable and inconsistent at times.

Played RSR Fazio on 9/6/19. The course conditions were marginal at best (50% mushy / 50% firm). Multiple times drives that landed in the fairway plugged and either remained in its pitch mark or trickled 2 feet forward. The fairway cut close to the green was the same 50/50. My tee shot on the signature 17th landed in the fringe and plugged so deep that I used my ball repair tool to extract it. The greens were ok but not great like you would expect. The green surfaces just did not look or feel healthy and it appeared like they were struggling with a disease or fungus. The green issues did not cause the ball to jump off line and they are fast (easily 11+ on the stimp). Severe downhill putts were impossible to stop and that was mostly due to the fact that the green surfaces offered very little resistance.Had this course played firm and the greens were in better condition, I would have rated it a 3.5 (even though that is not an option). My ultimate criteria for judging a course is whether or not I had fun. It started out fun but the beating of uphill holes with plugged drives ultimately made it unfun.

The ultimate and premier rocky mountain golf experience. The course is meticulously maintained, service is exceptional, and the setting, wildlife and views are outstanding.
