This is "Golf Life." Here's your host, Mike Billingsley. Welcome to "Golf Life." We're coming to you from the premier golf destination in the Denver area, Omni Interlocken Hotel & Golf Club, 27 holes and one seriously impressive resort. If you're watching from anywhere in the US or right here in Denver, let me show you why you've got to visit Omni Interlocken. Base camp is kind of our motto. Base camp is where literally you can get to Boulder within 20 minutes. You can get to downtown Denver in 20 minutes. You're 30 minutes from the airport, and then you can get up to Rocky Mountain National Park, and it starts right here at the base camp here at Omni Interlocken. I always look forward to being able to come out and play at the Omni, and there are a lot of reasons. There are three nines. They're all different. The views are stupendous out here. It just lifts your spirits. And each nine has a whole variety of holes. You never get bored coming out here and playing. Most important part are the people are welcoming out here. Omni Interlocken is the best golf destination, especially from the resort aspect, being able to stay here on property and closely having 27 championship-level holes right next door. We're absolutely trying to establish ourselves as the best golf course resort here in Denver. Coming in from out of town, it's phenomenal because you have the hotel, which is a block and a half away from the clubhouse. It's got two pools, giant hot tub. They serve food and beverages there at the pool. So in between rounds of golf, it's a place for your family to hang out. There's three nine-hole courses here, so there's definite different dynamics and different combinations of 18 holes you can put together. So in terms of a resort destination getaway, you're right close to Rocky Mountain National Park, close to Boulder, close to Denver. There really isn't a better place to be. Yeah, this course is amazing. As soon as you drive in, it's already pretty welcoming and inviting, and when you tee off, each shot is unique in itself. It's gorgeous, and you also feel confident going up to each shot, just the way the landscape is set out. And then when you see that ball flight and the ball approach the green, it's probably one of the most beautiful things I've seen. So hitting a ball at altitude's a little bit different than at sea level. Functionally, the ball goes further by about eight percent. It also curves a little bit less, and the wind affects the ball about half as much here in Colorado as it does, say, at sea level. So those are the three biggies about playing golf at altitude. I think it's one of the top courses for sure, and destinations in Colorado by far. Again, with everything that they have to offer, it's just a great place to be. Wouldn't want to be anywhere else. Oh, it's absolutely the premier Denver golf resort destination. There's nothing better in the area in terms of conditions, proximity, and on top of that, with the three nines, you never get the same thing two days in a row. I mean, to share these golf experiences with my family has been awesome, the views and just the course itself. See the Rocky Mountains behind me, I mean, absolutely gorgeous views. I haven't seen anything like this where I come from, and just the course itself is awesome as well. Today was my first time playing the course, so I have to say, first off, the course conditions itself were immaculate. The greens, the fairways, the tee boxes, having the Rocky Mountains behind you is simply amazing. Along with the clubhouse, short walk to the practice facility. The facilities offer all kinds of practice opportunities. You can grab a lesson if you've got a few hours in the afternoon if you're visiting. It's top of the list for people not only who come here, but for people who live in the area. We feel grateful we can access this beset of courses and play them. This is a prime location. I mean, you're only 15, 20 minutes from downtown, 15, 20 minutes to Boulder. Pretty close by. There's a lot of action around here if you want to head into Boulder and into Denver. And this golf course, as much as it's close to the city, it still feels like you're kind of tucked away closer to the foothills, and it's an amazing golf course. If you're going to stay here on the property, the hotel is really nice, which is only, you can take a golf cart to the course. If you wanted to go outside of the area, you could do that, but if you don't want to, you could also stay very close with a lot of places you can go to. There's a pool, beautiful hotel, things for all members of the family to do. It's a great spot to be. There's complimentary transportation that you can go, just get the front desk, and you can come straight here to the clubhouse. You come talk to our golf shop attendants. They'll be able to assist you with tee times. We also have complimentary use of the practice facility if you don't have time to play that 18 holes while you're staying here. But we do have complimentary rental clubs, which is our Callaway partners. You'll be able to use their driving range if you don't have that time to play that nine or 18 holes. If you are in a good spot with your golf game, come out, warm up, enjoy the golf course. But if you are maybe worried about how you're going to play on this trip, or you've got something that's holding you back, maybe you can't get off the tee, maybe you've got the chipping yips, maybe you've got the shanks, that's the worst of them, as far as being able to enjoy the golf course, call up or send us a note. Alicia or myself might be able to help you with some small problem like that. We're not going to try to overhaul your swing, but we might be able to at least get you functional enough to enjoy the stay. I've gone on a lot of golf trips all over the country, and in terms of having all the amenities in one spot, you have Chef's Restaurant, which is a phenomenal bar. You have the outdoor pool, hot tub. You have a spa, world-class spa with massages, and there's a sauna. And then you've got the three nine-hole golf courses. I mean, it really is a one-stop shop for an out-of-state golf destination. Definitely a massage. Yes, I've often gotten, "That's the best massage I've had anywhere." So that's probably the biggest thing. They're like, "That's the best massage I've ever had," and I get them all the time. We offer an infrared sauna for any of our guests. That's complimentary, which often feels good after an activity. And then our spa guests also have access to our pools, hot tub, and fitness center. I'd say it's an incredible place to be able to recharge the batteries. Sometimes being able to take a step away, recharge the batteries, and take a step away from life for a little bit can definitely be a great thing, and it's a great place to do it here. Oh, it's amazing. I mean, the amenities here are excellent. The golf course is excellent. The staff is great. Couldn't ask for anything better. Look at this backdrop. So Omni really goes for what we call the trilogy, right? So we all are one, the owners, the guests, and the associate, right? We all are one, or we are all one unity, one family. Well, first of all, we're just a company that is strong in customer service. That's what we do. We take care of our guests from the bottom to the top. What I want them to feel is that they were well taken care of, the course was in great shape for them, they had a good time, they ate, they drank. Everybody greeted them in a good manner, so. When families come here, and there are a lot of different things to do. Of course, you have the mountains. You can hike. You can ride. You can fish. And when you're on the golf course, it's a great way to get the generations together. I mean, I feel really fortunate I can still get out and play with the younger folks. They allow me to play with them, and I can still hold my own if I play some of the tees that are a little bit up. And so it's well-designed that way. It's just set up really nicely for a family experience. Going through our omnihotels.com, where you can go ahead and book your stay. You can also book your packages, golf packages. We have those offerings, and you can book those as far out in advance as you would like. Then we also have opportunities at interlockinggolf.com, where a daily fee, local guests can go ahead and book reservations out there. Tee times are available. The golf course speaks for itself. Omni is the spot to come to. I've got to say, Omni's probably ranked in the top two, if not three, golf courses in Colorado I've ever played. The weather in Colorado in fall, you can't beat it. With the trees turning colors and the temperature, this is the place to be. It's beautiful out here.
