Don’t let the storm clouds in my photos fool you: Patty Jewett Golf Course was jumping today!
We went to swing clubs at the range and blow off the steam of a long week.
A couple of buckets of balls is super affordable and you can grab drinks and snacks in the shack next to the range.
It’s such a chill way to hang with my husband, enjoy the beautiful views of the Rocky Mountains, and work on your swing. It’s one of my favorite day date destinations.

Absolutely excellent, especially considering the cost. Rates to play are very reasonable here and the course is without question one of the nicest in the springs.
It's a really pretty course with lots of mature trees and great views of the mountains. Don't forget to pause and appreciate the views, hole 8 is one of my favorites.
Not exactly challenging, but not boring. I played here 10 times or so this year and enjoyed it each time.
Course is kept in pretty good condition. The bunkers have plenty of sand and the fairways are well kept. The greens were in excellent shape all year - though right now (September) they've taken a big hit. In past years, they played extremely slow with very little break, but this year they had good speed and provided enough of a challenge to keep it interesting.
Practice-wise, their chipping green is great and had a sand trap, and the putting green is solid. Driving range isn't great (more below)
I chose a 4 star here instead of 5 only because of the following:
- driving range is mats only, and many of the range balls are so old they don't have dimples left. Plus, the cost ($8) for a small basket is steep for the 25 balls you get. The other sizes are more reasonable but this isn't the best place to hit the driving range if you actually want to practice. Cherokee Ridge is nicer and costs less with grass surfaces, or Pine Creek is similar cost to Patty and has grass as well.
- they have some silly rules that negatively impact the experience. 1 is the fact that there are no martials, so pace of play is often slow. Expect a 5 hour round, sometimes more. 2 is their rules on rain checks. We got rained out after 9 holes and they wouldn't give us a rain check on the back 9 despite the course being closed. Even if you only played 1 shot, once you tee off they won't do rain checks. A
- lastly it's tough to get a good tee time, but that's really just a reflection of how great of a course it is. It's hard to justify playing somewhere like Pine Creek for $120 when Patty is in better shape and costs half.

Our experience at Patty Jewett Golf Course was nothing short of amazing. We came for the all-you-can-eat crab legs on Wednesday, and let me tell you my plate was never empty! The staff was constantly checking in, refilling plates, and bussing tables quickly so everything stayed clean and comfortable.
The drinks were outstanding, the prices were incredibly reasonable (definitely not overpriced), and the food options beyond the crab legs were just as impressive so many great choices.
One of my absolute favorite parts of the night was the sunset view outside it was beautiful and made the whole experience feel extra special. Our waitress, krissy, was amazing so sweet, attentive, and genuinely made us feel welcomed and taken care of.
This place is perfect for date night, family gatherings, business dinners, or catching up with old friends. It was my first time coming here, and I already know I’ll be back often I might just become your favorite customer from now on 😭💙
Oh and all you can eat crab legs + golf? You truly can’t beat that. Highly, highly recommend!
