Hiwan / Red Rocks / Pinehurst / Rolling Hills

Hey folks, 

Might be relocating to west denver and have been looking at clubs to join if I do. I think I narrowed it down to these four, but certainly open to new suggestions if they're near these. I'll be in the edgewood area and my employer would pay for the club so I'm set on joining as opposed to playing public. 

 

Any insights and opinions would be appreciated.

Welcome! Is your company hiring? 😄

 

I haven't play any of those clubs, but Hiwan is known to have the toughest greens in the state. I would also probably add Columbine CC to your potential list. Glenmoor CC might be a bit too far south for you.

 

I posted a link to a list of all private clubs in Colorado in the 2022 Colorado WRX thread (link below). Feel free to stop by!

I am not a fan of Pinehurst unless it is very convenient. The course condition is good but the layout is just nothing special. I could not see me being a member. Red Rocks has a few really good holes and is fun to play but has a few holes that feel they are in backyards. Not sure about what the membership looks like or how active they are. When I have played its pretty quiet.

 

The Club at Rolling Hills is the best on your list. Good group of players and would be the one I would join unless I lived on RR.

 

Don't know much about Hiwan.

 

Another good course on the west side is Bear Creek but it is men only. Great club if its a fit.

Rolling Hills or Hiwan 

 

I would Really look at Lakewood CC. Great membership.Awesome clubhouse with men’s locker room bar. Course updated by Hanse.

From what I have heard, Red Rocks is redoing a number of greens and will interupt play. Last I checked there is a solid WL at Columbine and Lakewood.
