Not the worst

Tee boxes were basically dirty patches. Pretty sad that the easiest part looked so rough. The greens were decent though. Course layout was fun.

Not Bad

Greens are in great shape and the tee boxes with grass aren’t bad. Fairways are hard as a rock and bunkers are nice and sandy (but no one rakes them) but it is severely overcrowded

Overall average course with great greens. That was my second time playing it in 2 years and I’ll probably play again after another 2 years

Course is very dry

Greens have been treated a few weeks ago it seemed and were not as fast and true as normal. That is probably a good thing

Ball is running for miles and miles

Even wet holes like 13 are dry..

Still a good day.. We were behind a outing and it was a little slow

Great value!

Always a friendly staff, nice large range, and fun layout. This has been a favorite part of my rotation for awhile now. For the money, you’d be hard pressed to find a course that can match The Creek.

Great course even greater value

Very tough course for a northern Indiana guy, lol. Very hilly with a great layout. The greens were firm and fast and rolling compared to what I normally play. The pro shop staff were super friendly and helpful and somehow even with a 2 hours frost delay I still teed off right on time at my scheduled tee time. Very nice course and a great value I really enjoyed it. I played with 2 great guys who played there often who were very friendly and helpful for a first timer there with club selection.

Great shape

Best shape ever. A lot of demanding tee shots. 1-1/2” of rough makes course play long and difficult to stop the ball on the new firm and fast greens. Great test of golf.

Can’t wait to get back.

Great layout. Greens were quick and rolled smooth. Fairways were pristine. Can’t wait to play again and try to better my score knowing the course a little bit.
