About to bulldoze greens

In all fairness they are about to undergo a major renovation including bulldozing all the greens - so not much has been done to maintain the greens and it shows. Looking for to revising in Oct when they plan to be done. Starting next week they will have temporary greens and a revised course layout until they make it through construction

Greens...

Greens were scheduled to be replaced/renovated a couple weeks after our rd. They were in pretty rough shape so glad to see the issue being addressed.

Otherwise a solid course in good shape with a challenging layout.

All the greens are in bad shape.

All the greens are in need of repair.
Also needs irrigation improvement on the cart path.

Will be better this fall

Have enjoyed this course before as a good spot to play a quick afternoon round. Tee’d off as a junior tournament was finishing up. Pace of play was very slow. Greens are bad enough that I will not play here again until the greens go through their renovation this summer. Once that’s complete, I’m sure I’ll be back.

Good Layout/Fun Course...But

Always enjoy playing the Creek. Interesting layout with a solid variety of holes. Greens were not very good overall, but I understand that work is about to start on redoing all of them. Expect temporary greens to be in play. I will certainly return once the new greens are in.

Rough greens and pace of play.

This course could benefit greatly from hiring a starter. It's a free for all for the first tee. Also they let 5-6 play at a time. Pace of play is really slow! The greens are shot!

Beautiful Place

The course is excellent. I saw they are replacing the greens. This is the weakness of the course at this time. It is a well designed course and a good value. With improved greens it would be an excellent value.

Better greens coming!

Greens were not in good shape. However they posted that they are changing them over. Installed by October. Can’t wait because this is a friendly layout.

Hard labor Creek Golf Course

Most of the course was cart path only. It gets wet quite often, otherwise, a good experience.

All alone

After many many inches of rain the night before, I was out there most all day by myself. It was cart path only, water standing everywhere and the course was still in very good shape! I had a wonderful day playing at my own pace and took all the time I wanted
