Great people. Great story! The miracle of Turkey Creek

The absolute most welcoming staff! Great course layout! Good place to work on the game. They are going through some challenges, but the people and their courtesy to visitors is amazing. I will definitely go back for many more rounds!

Great layout but poor maintenance

Thie course layout is great, but lack of maintenance.

Greens are old and they have to keep it higher than the normal. It makes a bad putting experience. Also, too many unplayable spots.

There is no grass on the range.

Putting practice is totally slow.

Tee boxes needs some love.

Always a good time

Course is in good shape. Always fun with live music, drinks and food at the turn. Only complaint is the course gets stacked up with 10 minute intervals. Be prepared to play ready golf, but also be prepared to wait behind a group. Great experience altogether.

Terrible course

The course is just abysmal you can see it at the practice area which half the green is just dead spots with no grass plus it is like putting on fairway when there is grass. Speaking of the fairways they are really dry with also a lot of dead spots. Overall if you are in Gainesville find somewhere else to play.

Nice but room to improve

Course is long, but the winding through a neighborhood is a real wonky layout. It’s made worse by how hostile the neighborhood feels towards golfers. A ball might go in your yard, you chose to live on a golf course. Clubhouse is bare bones and no beverage cart around. They’re going to have to knock the price down a bit if the greens aren’t in better shape soon. On a positive note, the practice facilities are very good with a full range and chipping/putting area.

This Course has Become a Joke

I used to play here 2 or 3 times a week. I quit playing for months because the conditions were so poor. Well, i decided to give it another try hoping that they did work on the course. I paid $59 for greens that were a joke. Missing grass, temporary greens, horrible fairways. All you need to do is go to the course and check out the practice green. Like putting in a cow pasture with missing grass, etc. They are putting in new concrete cart paths and put electronic scoring in the carts. Put your money into the actual course. I'd done with this dog track. Don't waster your time or money. Neither are worth it.

Turkey Creek

Beautiful area and layout of course. Course/club is definitely going through some major renovations which will improve it drastically. Again gorgeous homes and area but the greens needs some much needed TLC; tee boxes could use some love too, maybe that’s part of the renovations but other that will be back next time we’re in the area. Overall nice course!!

This course needs some work from the Tee boxes, fairways, and the greens are in real bad shape. every single green was not acceptable. The staff was very friendly and helpful. The price was way too high for the course conditions, should of been 20.00 , not 40+.

Doubt I'll ever play there again.

A perfect 9-hole course

A great 9-hole course in excellent condition at a very affordable price. While the course is a bit short, it’s perfect for a relaxed and casual round of golf.
