Girlfriend and I are visiting Denver in a month and want to play while we're out there, probably 9 holes. We are both novices and are looking for a nice course with good views that won't be too difficult for us... Kind of a specific set of criteria, but does anyone have recommendations?

Hello! Welcome to TST! I lived in the area for awhile a few years ago. City Park is a nice track and good for beginners. Here's a good site to look:

City Park’s golf course is closed right now because it’s being renovated. 

For 9 holes and good views, look at Homestead (back 9 is better) or Fox Hollow (Links or Canyon). Common Ground has good views, but I’m not sure they do 9 hole tee times.

There are many very good courses in Denver area which are golfer friendly and scenic.
It really depends on where you are staying. You can go north, south, east or west a few miles and be close to several.
Fox Hollow was one of my favorites.

Completely agree with @DeadMan on his recommendations.  Homestead is an executive course, par 65, and is always in great shape.  Right at the base of the foothills, it has some beautiful views.  Another recommendation that I think offers 9 holes is Evergreen Golf Course, which is maybe 30 minutes up I-70 from Denver.  It's a muni, but also a mountain course that's a lot of fun.

Evergreen is a really good suggestion. Just be aware that it's a little quirky on a couple of holes. But you're playing in the mountains, so the beauty and the overall experience will probably make up for that.

    • Day 23: weird day, and only had a little bit of time. Just did mirror work again, working on where the elbow is in the downswing 
    • I flipped over to this tonight and thoroughly enjoyed it. Anyone else watch? I picked it up during the golf relay event, but seeing these pros out having fun in alternative events was refreshing and entertaining. I’m sure it will be on in reruns in the next week or so, so I won’t spoil the outcome. Im curious what others thought of it. I’m recording it’s later airing to see the beginning. 
    • Day 443 - 2025-12-17 Made a few swings in testing some things out at another academy. Might pop up on someone else's podcast in a few weeks.
    • Day 37 (17 Dec 25) - nine hole round with my good friend.  We got paired up with a couple of the men’s group regulars as part of their shootout.  Started off with a wonderful quad bogie and then a dbl on three to be six over thru three holes.  Game went 180° over the next five as I shot one under (including a chip in birdie on hole six and four up and down 1 putt pars) for a net finish of five over. What could have been a really tough nine became a solid finish due to staying in the moment and not checking out.  Great day in course management and keeping perspective .
    • Day 127 12-17 Backswing and flow practice. Took advantage of the 60 degeee weather(it was 20 degrees Sunday)
