Rating 71.9

Situated between Greenville and Spartanburg, Willow Creek Golf Course is a favorite course amongst many area players. The course has a classic layout that starts out gently with a player-friendly front nine but then becomes much more challenging on the back nine. The layout is a seemingly mild 6,890 yards from the back tees but it can feel longer because of all the elevation changes you'll encounter. It's a golf course that will appeal to beginners but advanced players will also enjoy the many risk-reward opportunities that can be found throughout. Water hazards come into play on eight holes and there is a slew of strategically placed bunkers lurking along the greensides. The par-5 fifth hole is Willow Creek Golf Course's signature. This 516-yard hole tumbles across rolling hills with a stream that cuts right through the fairway.

Great condition

$70 plus something is on the higher and in the area, but we were not

disappointed with quality they provided at all.

Multiple stuff watching the pace of the players which were sometimes annoying and they seemed not to be very functioning as far as keeping the players on a pace they want, but it was all right. Enjoyed playing there very much.

Decent Course Poorly Run

Starters were old men with little tact or customer focus. As we made the turn, they had inserted a group in front of us, causing a

10-minute wait on the 10th tee and more time during the nine. When we asked why, the response was "I am allowed to do that." When we asked why they chose to do it, since it was a bad move, the response was "You can go somewhere else." Great idea.

Fair experience

Many tee boxes had no grass. Greens were in ok condition but slow. Morning starter and clubhouse staff were great. Ranger was very friendly. Afternoon staff was rude

Starter - ranger and pro shop were GREAT !

People working at the course are always Great ! Greens in good shape but early in the spring the fairway’s are starting to come in. Try to play here a couple times a year. We played in under 3 hours but the group behind hit into us a couple times. We asked if they wanted to play through twice but they declined. Glad they didn’t hit it where they were aiming
