I just toured the Colorado Golf Club. They're in the grow-in phase, scheduled for a soft opening this fall, I believe. The project (course, clubhouse, homes) appears to be first-class all the way around.
As for the course, the topography appears to be very similar to Castle Pines Golf Club, which shouldn't be surprising because the two aren't very far apart as the crow flies (CGC is due east). It's a little more open than I expected; there are some stands of pine trees, but it's much more exposed than, say, the non-dunes holes at Bandon Trails. Given the climate differences between Colorado and Oregon, that's probably not a fair comparison, but I recently played Bandon Trails so that was my reference point.
The course is designed to be walker-friendly and some of the distances between greens and tees are very short, but I wouldn't call it easily walkable. Put it this way, if you're inclined to take a cart, you probably won't be tempted to walk CGC. What bunkering exists now is very distinctive (nothing new for C&C). There appears to be a good blend of short and long par 4s. There are some forced carries there that will be problematic for higher handicappers--that's not a feature I normally think of when discussing C&C but I'm not that familiar with their courses.
It looks like a great addition to the golf scene in greater Denver (and I do mean greater--it's a good ways out of town). Obviously, it's hard to say where it will fall on the spectrum of C&C courses, but I'm just happy we'll have one in our area.
