Fast Greens

Our first time playing here. John the starter was very friendly and set us off in great spirits. The course was in good condition, with the greens being very fast with lots of slopes. These greens were as difficult as we have ever played - not complaining, as the warmup putting green was a perfect reflection of the course greens. I can see why the Colorado Open was played here in the past, as it would challenge even the best player. Nice layout.

Great greens

Turn off the fan!
Just kidding, the course was in great shape. The wind blew us all over which made the course play longer than normal but still a lot of fun. Greens and fairways were in great shape.
Nice driving range and practice putting green. 3rd time playing here, I’ve never met an unfriendly employee or customer.
Thanks again we’ll be back. Keep up the great work.

Saddle Rock on 5/28/22

My first time playing Saddle Rock and enjoyed it very much. Course was in excellent condition all around but for some lingering thinSpits in the fairways probably due to normal winter weather damage. This was a minor issue, however. Greens were excellent.—neither too fast nor too slow and very consistent.

Always a challenge

Bring your A game to this course. Play from white if you havent played here before.
A lot of brush and hazard areas have been cleaned up that makes for better play.
More than one bucket for wetting towels needed.

We loved playing here, we will definitely be back again soon!

This is a really fun course! Most friendly, polite accommodating staff. Pace of play was right on, the course was in good shape and presented some interesting challenges. The course is in great condition, beautiful greens are rolling fast and true and the pace of play is the best I've seen. The restaurant to speak; my group and I were very satisfied from the service and food.

Course is beautiful...staff not so much

When you read about Saddle Rock many of the reviews address the poor attitude of the pro shop. The reviews are spot-on. On the several occasions we played the course the pro shop staff is surly, condescending, and just not the people you want working at a city golf course. The poor treatment was not unique to us. The nasty culture is pervasive throughout the staff. The course itself is beautifully maintained and really fun. The front nine in particular is a wonderfully designed course. It is a nice course to play after you get past the front desk folks.

Premier Not

I have played this course many times and consider it my home course but it seems this course condition has deteriorated the last few years. So much winter damage on the greens and marshals do not track pace of golf. Today was a good score considering conditions but would have loved to get a true roll on the green. Premiere golf it is not and the golf fee does not reflect a good value. Played many courses for $22 that were far better condition and play than Saddke Rock.
