Better Every Round
Turkey Creek has improved from round to round for this golfer-- I salute the tireless efforts of the staff and volunteers to make for an enjoyable day at the course-- If only they could improve my game as quickly as they have the course itself-- As the title states, it's getting better every round !!
Best shape since reopening in Jan ‘21
The greens and tees were top-dressed and overseeded with winter rye on Nov 8/9. Fairways are dry and firming up. Pace of play is fantastic with tees times nicely spaced. While range balls aren’t new, they are the best value around at about 12/$1 and the range is well-maintained with a grass teeing area and short-game practice area. This is fast-becoming the go-to public course in the Gainesville/Alachua area
Glad To See You Open!
I have played the course three times in the last three weeks. Congratulations to all for the hard work and time you have put in to get this course up and running again. I know it will get nothing but better. THE COURSE IS NOT IN GARMIN'S MOST RECENT SOFTWARE UPDATE. That would be helpful, if you could reach out to Garmin. I'll be back!
Not my cup of tea.
I prefer walking to riding in a cart, but this course is one of the least friendly to walkers that I have encountered, so after walking it once I took to riding in a cart. On several of the holes, golfers get treated to a Parade of Homes, as it is necessary travel on more than a block of residential street between the green and the next tee. The last time I played this course, at the beginning of September, the greens were horrible, particularly on the back nine. There was a lot of sand but little grass, so we agreed to a two-putt local rule. This is my least favorite course in the area, and will go back only as a last resort. There is a dearth of golf courses in the Gainesville area, so I do truly hope that the conditions of the course can be improved.
First time playing course
Today was my first time playing the course. Staff was very friendly. It just opened up so the overall greens conditions are still not ideal, but they are working hard to keep improving them. It was a great layout and I will definitely be going back!
Good course
Gainesville is a terrible golf area,, but this course is pretty good value for the mony
Getting Better
Is course is coming along fine. Wet conditions are plaguing all of north central Florida so don’t be surprised if it’s cart path only .The facility is working hard on the golf course and it shows greens need a little work but that’s understandable due to weather.
Was it under the old name?
