Holes 18
Type Public
Par 70
Length 6106 yards
Slope 124
Rating 70.2

The golf course at Heather Ridge provides not only a good game but also spectacular views overlooking the Rocky Mountains. The former private, 18-hole course is 6,106 yards at its longest tees and plays to a par of 70. Renowned golf course designer Richard Phelps designed the course, which opened in 1972. The small greens are undulating and extremely sloped. The course also features narrow fairways and water hazards. The most difficult hole on the Heather Ridge Golf Course is the 10th hole, which is a par-5 that covers 506 yards.

Okay course, terrible pace of play

Tee boxes and fairways are in good enough shape. Greens are quite soft and there are a ton of previous divots that have gone unaddressed. Played on a Friday and the round would've been 5.5 hours. Had to skip 18 due to t-storms. Our cart was hit on number 9 from a shanked iron off the range. We were almost hit twice on the back 9 standing on different tee boxes. The layout is extremely open and tee shots can easily land near other tee boxes. Overall if the course is slow its good enough for 50 bucks, but good luck on a weekend...

Shot of the year candidate...

See my video...

Try this shot next time you play here: #3 - pin is in the top left-hand corner 5-6 paces on. My approach landed top left corner of the rough for a very fast and touchy third shot. The green is especially slick on this shelf and runs away from you quickly. Too aggressive, your ball will trickle all the way off the green 50-odd feet away!

So, I practiced the strength of my putt off the green trying to get it to just roll on and release down to the hole for a tap in par...

"...the crowd has gone silent here at Augusta.." ...

FYI: I finally made it over to the green in two shots on #7... :)

Great conditions. Slow Play

Course was great.. Pro shop staff super nice. Played VERY slow. We waited to hit every shot on the back nine. The group ahead of us was crawling and a hole and a half behind the group in front of them. We told the ranger and he wasn't much help. Said he just drove by them and didn't notice they were behind.

Great Course, although extremely busy, greens are very fast. I would like to see it spread out a little bit more so the pace of play is better.

Ranger is a jerk

Twice I've played this course and twice we've marveled at what an unprofessional jerk the marshall is. He just drives around looking for trouble where there isn't any. He balled out the expert in front of us for waiting for the group in front in front of him to clear the green on a short par 4. The dude then smashed his drive right on the green. The ranger drove off in a huff but not before he stopped to tell me my cart was facing the wrong way while we were waiting. Every time we talked to another group they had their own story about the guy. I won't golf here again because of him and also bc it's not a nice enough course to justify their ridiculous prices

Never going back

Pushy staff, poor conditions (rough greens, green cloudy pond water, goose poop everywhere), and the houses are wayyy too close to the course (yet they have signs everywhere to remind you that any damage is the player’s fault). Not a good experience.

Neighborhood course

Nice municipal course. Small driving range and I didn't like that you had to pay for your golf balls even though you were playing 18 holes. Friendly staff! Nice golf carts!

Best bang for the buck

My buddies and I love to play the twilight times after work on either Tuesdays or Thursdays. You can’t beat the value.
The grass is surprisingly well maintained and the course conditions have never been an issue. It’s a basic course, but that’s fine for a weekday round.
It’s nice to have the bar upstairs for a beer afterwards on occasion. Not a bad spot for a football Sunday either.
I would recommend.

Pleasant surprise

Greens and fairways were in great condition. Used a golf cart that was clean and ran great. Course layout was a parkland type with parallel fairways and tee boxes close to greens. Great value for the price, did not expect it.
