Turtle Creek Golf Club

My son treated me to a round for Father’s Day. We played as a twosome and we finished our round in three hours and 30 minutes. I thought the course was in very good shape. The only recommendation I would make would be to cut the roof a little bit shorter to make it easier to find a bar that goes off the fairway. Other than that I felt the tea boxes in greens and fairways were in great shape. The Ranger did a good job in keeping everyone moving.

The difficulty with this course lies in the rough. It’s not super tall buts it’s thick and well maintained. It’s like hitting a ball that’s been plunged into a sponge. Find the fairways or face the consequences. Great course, lots of fun.

Course is always in very good shape - very good $ value. Course is challenging from blue tees. Unfortunately it was “cart path only” due to recent heavy rain so play was a bit slow.

Played with My Son around noon on a Monday. Tee times spaced out every 16 minutes so pace of play was excellent. We didn’t try to set any speed records as we were enjoying the weather and the day together but we played in 3 and 1/2 hours walking. The group in front of us was also a twosome who teed off on two before we teed off one. We stayed a hole behind them all day and didn’t see a group behind us until the 17th hole when a twosome in single carts appeared behind us.

The course is in good shape for May given how cold it’s been in Eastern PA. As I pulled in I immediately noticed how green the course was. The rough was lush but cut to about 2 1/2” so not overly penal. Tee boxes and fairways in very nice shape. A little on the thin side but I think they’ll fill in nicely over the next couple of weeks given the forecast. The greens were in excellent shape. They rolled faster than anything I’ve played this year north of South Carolina. They were hard and true. Balls coming from the rough would really roll out but a crisply hit iron from the fairway would check up for you. The sand traps looked in good condition but a local rule had them played as GUR due to no rakes (COVID-19).

The course is very pleasant with a nice mix of easy to hard holes. The course opens with an uphill par 4 that plays to around 400 yards from the blue tees with a generous landing area and a lone bunker on the right side of the green. It gives you a chance to ease into the round with an open par five as the second hole. The third is a short par 3 with water on the left and well bunkered. . The green is two tiered and can be a difficult two putt off on the wrong level.

The most difficult hole on the front is definitely the par 4 sixth. It is listed at 424 but plays uphill usually into the wind. On the day we played, there was a 20 mph wind into us. The hole played more like 470. The back is a lot of fun starting off with a short par 4 that runs a long a driving range with a huge net running down most of the hole. All in all a lot of variety. No two holes are similar and the conditions are usually good to very good.

I did not use any off course amenities this time. They usually have a great selection of microbrews. We say the cart girls twice on each nine. . The starter was very friendly. Joked around with us while we waited. I can’t wait to play TC again soon.

One of the beat courses in the area! Beautiful Views! Great for all level of players.

Staff is kind and helpful.

Can’t wait to tee one up at The Creek again!

Even at a full hours drive , this course is an absolute gem. Always in top condition and a super staff make this , in my opinion, one of the best daily fee courses in this area.

Good shape

Staff was great

Offered free hotdogs and a drink for Veterans Day( nice touch)

Following 2 days of rain and being C.P.O. and a free drop from the bunkers my playing partner and i enjoyed a balmy after noon of golf. This course constantly maintains its high standards. I would play here every week if i could.

Solid layout, not overly penal and compared to other courses it was in really good condition. I will definitely play here again before it snows. One question tough, why such a small sign at entrance?

Course is in much better shape than those around it. They run a tight ship to keep it nice and that is appreciated. One the best in Montgomery County!

I saw online that Tee times were wide open for the next 2 hours, drove 45 mins there to play. They refused to let me play as a single even though no one was teeing off for 2 hours. I have never experienced this anywhere else. Desk clerk was unapologetic.

Turtle Creek is a nice course that usually is in good shape. It's certainly shabbier than I've seen it, especially in the fairways where there are big bare spots on many of the holes. The greens are in good shape and putt true so that part is on the mark. Hopefully, some weather with less heat and less storms will help and the course will regain its old conditioning. We had a nice day here and enjoyed our round.
