The course is owned by Jerry McLamb and built on his 500-acre family homestead. The front picks its way through old tobacco fields and vegetable gardens, and its flatness makes it susceptible to the coastal breezes that kick up in early afternoons. There is both bunkering and mounding, though both are subtle. The back nine winds through Carolina woodlands, and has a different feel with tree-lined fairways and rolling contours. The strongest stretch of holes on the course is from No. 15 to the closing hole. Overall, the course is a well-groomed, playable layout with large, bentgrass greens and a pleasing, traditional layout.

Crow Creek has made a name for itself among Brunswick County's 30-plus golf courses by supplying golfers with a playable, well-groomed layout replete with airplane hanger sized L93 bentgrass greens and sensibly designed golf holes.

Nice greens

I’ve played here many times. Really enjoy the track. Seems as though the round is never under 5 hours which makes me hesitant to play here again. Maybe send less groups out or hire a ranger to move along the slow groups we encountered on our back nine.

Spending over 5 hours to complete a round of golf is not for me. Our group of 4 waited on EVERY hole. No plans of returning.

Unfortunate Experience

This course is definitely a nice course if you are willing to wait on every hole and spend over 5 hours playing. I read the reviews and this was a common complaint but I decided to give it a try. Make sure you go out by noon. We went out at 2pm and got off the course at 7:30! It was getting difficult to see on the last 2 holes. Nothing was done to address the pace of play. Perhaps more time is needed between tee times.

Very enjoyable

Great layout, good conditions for this early in the year compared to other local courses. Greens were consistent and rolled well. All in all, very enjoyable round. I will be back to play it again.

Definitely a must to play!

At this time of the year it is in good shape, better then many of the courses in this area. You will enjoy the round and the layout. A definite must to play if you are in the area. I would recommend playing it you won't regret!
