Very scenic course with lots of elevation changes. Overall, course was in great condition and the layout was both challenging and fair. I have never seen so many railroad ties!

You won’t find a slower round in the entire state than Plum creek. You will wait EVERY SINGLE HOLE and the people that play here are the definition of cheap trailer trash! 3 groups on one hole is very common and the whole course is riddled with dog walkers and bike riders!

Thanks for letting a Nebraska visitor come out and enjoy the play. Wonderful challenge - fair risk/reward setup - courteous team. A picturesque layout that effectively utilizes the rolling contours provided by nature but enhanced by Pete Dye. I can’t wait to come back to play again

Much improved course conditions. Epic Pete Dye stadium design. Very covid19 aware with precautions in place. Friendly knowledgeable staff. Good value for the $$$.

Course is always fun, and challenging... conditioning of the course overall was good to very good... but, no Clubhouse is no bueno, hope theyre going to build one since they seem to no longer be able to use the established one for some reason...

As a lady I find it both offensive and unsettling to have to use the same bathroom as hundreds of males. Sitting in a stall right next to a strange man having a bowel movement is just gross. I’ve know idea who’s idea this was and if the ladies division is happy with this then good for them. I on the other hand will never go there again. There should be men’s bathrooms and ladies bathrooms. Who are we catering to?

Worst round of golf that I have ever played. Course was in ok shape, and had beautiful views. But the Marshall, John Coffey, completely ruined our day. He stopped us and told us to pick up pace 6 total times on the back nine, and we could literally not see any other golfers behind us. At one point I asked him where the people were behind us, and he said they were two holes back! So keep it up for the people two holes behind us? He would creepily park his cart in front of us and stare us down at every hole. Never in my life have I been so mistreated and disrespected on a golf course. Best part? We finished 18 holes in four hours and 35 minutes on the nose. If you know anything about golf, you know that is a SCREAMING pace. Will never golf here again and will recommend to all of my golfing friends to stay away. $70 down the drain.

Cannot recommend for wedding venue. PA system was terrible. Did not understand one word of what officiant said, not the toast, or anything the DJ said. It was remarkably bad. Did make the wedding more memorable though. The wedding where you couldnt hear anything, and the reception dragged on because the DJ couldnt make himself understood

Review №13

The bones of a good course are still here, albeit a Pete Dye (love him or hate him), but the fit and finish leave a lot to be desired. The course feels more than a bit run down, and third tier. The bunker sand is atrocious. Why is the clubhouse still a double-wide trailer?The course still plays well enough, and the greens run true, but she could use a fair bit of TLC. The service was very good.

This is one of the best courses I have played in this area. It is challenging if you cant hit fairway on every hole. Little left or right and you pay for it.

Review №17

Cheapest Times in the ENTIRE state makes sense!! They had 0 available golf carts when we were supposed to tee off, then drove out to us on hole 4 to try and take a cart away from us. CLOWNS RUN THIS PLACE. You will wait every single hole on the group ahead and the ranger (if they have one that day) will do nothing to enforce golf course rules and just drive around with his ear piece pretending to be important.

The amount of detail and concern the the staff provided while we were in attendance for our daughters wedding event was amazing. Also, a huge thankyou to Justin for making sure everything went as planned with the pending thunderstorms in the area!Highly recommended wedding venue!!!

Great course with marshals who care about pace of play. Challenging though but that makes it more fun

Review №23

The course itself was in decent shape, barring the aerated greens. Review doesn’t reflect the course. It was cart path only despite dry conditions, which was strange, but ok. On hole 8, after not seeing another group teeing behind us for the entire day, we were approached by the ranger. He was confrontational, aggressive, and rude despite it being the first time he’d seen us all day. His attitude was more reflective of a high school football coach in a locker room as opposed to a ranger on a “nice” golf course dealing with paying customers. I’m a huge proponent of maintaining pace of play and respect the folks out there doing their job respectfully, but this scenario was unnecessary and completely avoidable. He proceeded to come back to visit us 3 times over the next 10 holes to apologize and offer his hope that we were having a good round and were enjoying our experience. I live less than 3 miles from the course and will never be back.

Beutiful golf course, in great shape! Definitely recommend.

Review №25

This was an amazing course.. whos prime has probably past. A Pete Dye design, the layout, turf and hazards are all what you would expect to see at a premium course. However, the club house is currently a double wide with limited food and beverages. The paths, and waste areas are just that, waste. That said, with a little money and attention this course could shine like it did in the 80s.

Ik
Review №26

Over priced for the conditions. It’s obvious they are in the process of renovating the course. Overall, course is in poor condition and there’s better courses to play for the same price in the area.The maintenance staff was also working/watering as I was playing. A few of my approach shots looked like the picture. Not worth the money or time, would wait a year or so for them to finish renovations.

Review №27

This is a wonderful place to play. The greens have a lot of character and can be challenging. The par 3s are some of the coolest and most Interesting Ive played. But the coolest spot is the tee box on piers. If youre playing the tips be prepared to walk and stop to breath. This place is on my list of places to play again and again

Review №34

Experienced golfers dont play it. Its a beginner golfers course. Green fees should be about $25. Played today and it took 5 hours, 10 minutes. No marshals to enforce the speed of play, we had hackers in front of us playing from the tips. No enforcement. Course is in terrible condition for July. Its one of those courses that just want your money, they could care less about the golfing experience. Poor, poor management. Wont be back! Experienced golfers be aware! There are too many other great choices in the same area!

Review №35

Was duped into paying for a cart to be told cart path only at the starters box. Ground was plenty dry and 80 degrees outside. Course torn up everywhere. But they still want full price of course. Wont be back.

Review №36

I have played Plum Creek a few times, and while it isnt perfect, the customer service I received when I played a few weeks ago was top notch. I lost my phone on the 3rd hole, and the marshal spent a lot of time talking with other groups behind us and looking himself. I was very grateful at the turn when he said, It is your lucky day and handed me the phone. My phone fell out of my cart into tall grasses so Im shocked anyone found it. Regarding the course, they are doing some repairs and adding sprinklers, so the fairways on certain holes are not their best. The course layout is always fun, especially the par 3 on the back where you hit the ball into the gully. I will happily be back. It is also nice to see they are renovating the clubhouse which was becoming very dated.

Review №37

I would not recommend that folks go play this course. The pace of play was incredibly slow. Something I would expect at a local muni but not for what they are charging to play here. The ranger told us twice he was going to get things moving, but it never happened. The range is in terrible condition with equally terrible balls. The course itself was also in rough shape. It appeared like everything needed water badly. I’m used to the greens being their saving grace here, but not today. It was like putting on a mine field. I would suggest you spend your money elsewhere. We were looking for a good a good course between Denver and Monument, but we’re sorely disappointed today.

Out of all the courses I have played in Colorado, this is by far my favorite. It is always an enjoyable round with fantastic golf holes designed by the late great Pete Dye. LOVE THIS COURSE! Come play a round Plum Creek!

I played here for the first time last week with a gal pal and came away with a few observations to share with other women golfers:--The service was outstanding. We somehow ended up in an old cart that couldnt handle even the tiniest hill. And, a twosome got to the first tee just behind us and hit into us (by accident, we thought) on the blind dogleg-right first hole and then again (clearly on purpose) on the third hole, where we called the pro shop about both the cart and the rudeness. Someone came right out and handled everything -- we had a nice cart with GPS,, and the guys behind us never hit into us again and were also very polite at the turn. Kudos to Plum Creek management!--The course is typical Pete Dye, really hard for the guys. But Alice Dyes forward tees are kind of fun and give women chances to get to greens in regulation.--Once on or even around the greens, OMG. Theyre crazy. I think thats kind of fun too.--The conditions are a little raggedy but, Ive been told, much improved over five years ago. This could be a very nice high-dollar course, but... We played on a weekday afternoon for $49, which seemed about right.--Dont even think of walking the course, which winds through housing communities. The first tee is about half a mile from the clubhouse.--Theres a gorgeous clubhouse, but its not part of the course. You check in at a little trailer. However, you can visit the gorgeous clubhouse after your round and enjoy a lovely grill with delicious food and a nice selection of beers. Highly recommended 19th hole!

Review №43

Course is chopped up, looks like they have a ground crew of 2. Driving range was pretty much dirt, not a patch of grass to hit from. Wouldnt even pay $40 to play this course. No one enforcing pace of play, took 5hrs and 15 mins to play 18, had 3 groups waiting on a par 3 at one point. Unreal. This course is one straw from falling into the ground; whatever is left of it.

Review №44

Great layout but course was in horrible condition and not priced accordingly. 65 for these fairways and sandy greens? I’ve been playing here for 6 years and this was the worst condition I’ve seen it in. Hope things improve, but I likely won’t go back to find out.

Review №45

I havent been able to play for a few years and Im sure the golf is great... I give them kudos though because theyre such great neighbors. My property borders the course and they maintain the area between my yard and the course impeccably. Im not even sure its their responsibility but they do it anyway... because theyre good people. And Im pretty sure good people run a great golf course.

Review №47

Wish I would have checked the reviews before playing this course. It is in horrible condition. The superintendent should be embarrassed of the condition his course is in. I would not play this course again if they gave me a free round. $86.00 for a round of golf here is ridiculous!! They have truly ruined a course that could be one of the top courses in the state. So sad!!!

This is an amazing golf course in terrific condition. The fairways and greens are really nice and the greens roll very true. The course has 4 sets of tees and it can be very challenging from the tips. Depending on skill level, a more forward tee may be appropriate and more enjoyable. The staff is very friendly and accomodating. It is one of my favorite courses to play in Colorado.

Great facility. Has vastly improved since being bought out by Bear Dance several years ago. The entire staff treats golfers with respect, the cart staff is always friendly and willing to wash your clubs after your round. The practice facility is also great. With chipping areas, putting areas and a full range. Food and drinks at this place are also great. The burgers are something else. Highly recommend this course for all levels of play as there are 5 selections of tee boxes. The signature par three is probably one of the most unique holes you could ever play. Highly recommended. Best course for your money in greater Castle Rock area, hands down.

Back 9 is under repair, no Marshals which makes for a very long game especially because the gentleman in front of us couldnt carry 150 yards off the tee but would wait for group in front of them to clear the green before teeing off. Front 9 in good shape...

This is a challenging course. Can be difficult for high handicapped players. But is a very fun course with many beautiful holes throughout the 18. Normally this course is in pretty good shape although today it was okay at best. The greens are great to putt. The fairways are still recovering from winter. The staff are very friendly. The price is always competitive if not cheaper than most in Castle Rock area.

When I called to ask about their tee times (because the website didnt seem to be working) I got in touch with a gentlemen that was very short and not very forthcoming with the information that I was asking for to book my tee time. He ended up hanging up on me and when I called back and asked for him specifically he was very short with me once again. The way that I was treated made me book my golf somewhere else. Staff makes a big difference in your golfing experience and out of courtesy I have decided not to reference his name in the review however I hope that this if helpful in understanding how your decisions impact others.

Overall great time down at plum creek golf club. Nice course and cool terrain, great staff. Course itself is in pretty good shape. This place needs to be updated though! Everything from the signs to the landscaping to the parking lot is in disrepair. Looking forward to positive changes with the bear dance owners purchase of the course.

Played here for the first time back to golf in over 15 years. Great setup. My understanding is that it was a TPC course in its day. Great lies everywhere. challenging approaches & great greens. The pro shop was small, but had some quality products. I definitely will be back and I will recommend to friends.

I invited a few of my buddies to play Plum Creek and I was totally embarrassed. The course was in awful shape, it was so dried out in some areas we were hitting off dirt. The course is ROCK HARD! I thought Plum Creek invested in a new irrigation system?

Review №71

Sorry guys, we waited till after 3pm to score the 50 buck rate and how happy I am that we didnt pay any more. $50 should be their starting rate, thats all I think this course is worth. Its no different to a multitude of similar tracks built up around houses but when you read the promo material, you are led to believe it will be better. It may just have been as a result of the holiday that the footfall was large today. Does no one ever repair their pitchmarks any more? The greens were pockmarked with them as were the divots removed from the fairways with no attempts made to replace them. To make matters worse, there were more than a few players holding up the course due to poor levels of skill and the fact that one of the group behind us nearly wiped me out walking of a par 3 did nothing to endear me to the place. Nope, I wont be returning. Too far to travel for mediocrity.

Goat ranch. Run down. Sold to an “event management company” ???I guess weddings and bar mitzvahs are more important than once semi awesome PGA course if you like goofy golf where your bomb drive rolls into trouble by design and your 90 year old shanks one that runs towards the hole.Let go. Run down. Vols and beetle greens. Shed mobile home “pro shop” AND restaurant.Antique carts...but hey!! pay full price.This place needs 2 years if they work all winter. 3 years if they only do seasonal upgrades. Pay for bear dance.

Review №77

I have grown up playing plum creek golf course, years ago it was a much better course than it is now... The prior owners must have been struggling with business because they really let the place go, the paths for the carts are destroyed, the fairways and greens have been neglected. The owners of Bear Dance (a fantastic, and really expensive course in larkspur) bought this course and I am optimistic they will bring it back to quality. Prior to the Bear Dance folks buying it the old owners were trying to sell the land to developers, which as you could imagine was not received well by the people who paid top dollar to have their house on the course. I think that is one big reason they just seemed to give up.

I absolutely love this course. Great views, beautiful fairways, and just the layout has a lot of character. The actual infrastructure of the course (e.g., cart paths) are not in good shape, but that doesnt matter. It used to host tournaments in the old days. Its a bit of a drive from Denver, but try to play here at least once or twice a summer.

Rented a Wilson lefty set of clubs. They were brand new. I hit them well but felt bad returning them dirty. Course was pretty and challenging. They were recently purchased by Bear Dance. Hopefully the new owners add a course guide or more yardage markers. It was a bit difficult to get a range on a shot when it was cart path only. Good scenery and nice new golf carts.

The new owners have done a fantastic job with the course. As a high school golfer in the 1980s, I got to play Plum Creek once per year and it was my favorite course in Colorado. After a couple decades of mismanagement, the new owners are bringing Plum Creek back to be a GREAT Colorado golf course. Welcome back.

This course has come a long way back from where it had fallen. The greens are in great shape a little slower than I like but overall they roll true. Most of the fairways are totally recovered but you can see a drastic improvement. I was leery about playing this course again because of what it become, but It is worth playing and the staff is professional!

Lets be honest, if you cant water the course at this point in the season w/o mother nature, then disclose it. Golfers expect the fairways to maintained, and after playing yesterday (9/13/15), it was obvious only the greens are being watered. As the owners, you have a responsibility to folks spending $70 to chose your course among a dozen others w/in 1/2 hr drive time.Dont charge the full monty and expect a glowing review. Remember the 80/20 rule.
