We played both courses. A true test of golf. Each course was unique. The greens were fast and smooth. Carts had no GPS. Cart paths on the Silver course were rough. Best to stay on the rough when possible. Nice half way house on the Silver course. Many bathrooms on both courses, not porta johns. Great practice facilities. Nice pro shop with lots of Air Force goodies. Great snack bar and bar for an after round drink. We had a great experience at the Air Force academy.

Chris Swanson (88PLATINUM) Eisenhower is my sanctuary. Serious. I love my membership here. I've played some pretty damn cool courses, but I think Eisenhower will always be my favorite – both courses, Blue and Silver, I love them both. Never get tired of playing here. And seriously, to date, Blue has been the toughest course I've played in Colorado, definitely in Colorado Springs. I think Pebble Beach might be the most challenging course I've ever played (because of the wind!) anywhere else. Some people might complain about the golf carts or cart paths ... pfft, forget 'em ... I walk. It's one of the most beautiful courses to walk, very walkable – how golf should be played. I don't like it when courses force you to take a cart. Thanks, USAFA, for having and supporting active duty, retired, and vets with this course!

Awesome conditions and a very challenging course! (Silver) Saw a bear and some turkeys to add to the great day.

Great course for DoD ID card holders, entrance onto USAFA grounds required. Challenging course, even from the white tees (6k yards). Course was in great shape, nice and green. Good putting green and driving range. Lots of wild life on course. Got a birdie and bogey on the same hole.

We were staying two nights at the fam-camp and decided to go golfing. We did the blue course as the silver course was under weekly maintenance. The pro-shop to check in is actually downstairs. The staff was friendly and the guys did a great job explaining to my youngest about his rental clubs. The greens are well kept and over all the 18 holes was fun to play. The cart girl caught us when we tee'd off and around the 12th hole, for drinks and snacks. Plan accordingly if you have an afternoon tee time with the cart girl as the club house closes the food and drinks around 5.
I would come back to try the silver course.
