Indian Peaks Golf Course
2 reviews for Indian Peaks Golf Course
I play about 100 rounds a year. I have played most of Denver Muni's and would say Indian Peaks is a very good course compared to the others.
Consistently well maintained, good staff, I would highly recommend Indian Peaks. Better than
Vista Ridge
Eagle Trace
Thorn Creek
Coal Creek is a nice course in the same area, but VERY slow pace of play. Indian Peaks is much more wide open.
I would stay away on the week ends. Its slow, and the week end crowd seems to have no concept of golf rules or etiquette. The only;y two areas the staff might improve in are Marshal's on the week end need to be more assertive about pace of play, and dress code. And the restaurant is more of a snake bar, and over priced.
Billed as one of the Best Courses in Colorado, but sadly does not live up to that billing. The clubhouse is nice, the staff both in the Pro Shop and on the course are friendly and knowledgeable and the restuarant is better than average. However, what I came to the course for was to play golf. Reading the website, the course sounded fantastic and there were specials for reduced green fees.
The course is a nice lay out, but unless you are playing with someone familar with the course you have no idea where to hit a tee shot or how far to hit it. They should have a yardage book or information on the tee as to the yardages. A large negative was that it seems that no one who plays that course knows how to rake a bunker. Every one of them that I either passed by or ended up in had not been touched by a rake. Footprints, deep trenches from shots, dog prints, etc, all were there. The greens were in mediocre shape and I am being positive with that statement. Fairways were OK but maintenance needs to get out and repair divots and pick up grass from divots.
Overall, this course was about equivalent to a moderately kept Municipal course, which I take it , is what it is as it is owned by Lafeyette county. I just hate to think that this course if among the BEST that Colorado has to offer. However, with some thoughtful changes and aggressive maintenance, it could be a Star. Until then, only play it if you walk in the afternoon and can get the special rate.
