What people discuss
Independent course opinion is strongly positive. Golf Digest ranks Country Club of the Rockies among Colorado's better private courses and repeatedly praises the Eagle River setting, presentation and conditioning, while GolfCourseGurus likewise highlights the fast greens, scenery and strong Nicklaus design.
