Course under construction

The course is under construction in some places. The greens are in terrible shape. There are a few temporary greens rn. Maybe at some point the course will be in better condition. For now I do not recommend playing at Buffalo creek. Also I booked the tee time through golf now and my 3rd couldn’t make it. The course still charged me for him and said it was bc I reserved thru golf now and they are responsible for refunding me.

Needs a lot of improvement

Pace of play was under 4 hours and the staff were friendly and helpful. It was early morning so I expected to play quickly. Price was very good at $35 including cart.

However, the greens are the worst I’ve played. Many had bare patches, some new sod which was not properly laid and weeds were evident on several greens. Several holes had temporary greens.

This course needs a lot of work. Its just not golf at this course currently.

Under renovation

I’m torn on this course. Right now they have 4 temp greens because they are under restoration. I think come next season it will be in good shape. I got the summer loyalty card which gives 27 dollar tee times from 7-10am with a free beer and 20% off pro shop at no cost for the card. It’s a good deal; I’ll keep coming back because I have golfed here for 20 years. It’ll get better but for now be warned, it’s being worked on. The staff is always the best, Jay at the proshop is the man!

Buffalo Creek GC

Used a deal on GolfNow and played for just a couple of bucks. Working on a new swing and knew the course would likely be empty. Played 18 in two and a half hours. Bottom line, if you want to go out and practice, BC is a good course to play. Course has some lengthy holes and is challenging. Several temporary greens were being used. A necessary evil, particularly when we’re going through a drought!

Price was low

The course is in very ruff shape. Not 1 decent green currently. 3-4 temporary greens cut into fairways. Friendly staff and good price

This course needs a lot of work

One of our favourite courses over many years. There is so much work being done at the moment. Hopefully it will be ready by fall that’s when we will be able to play it again.

Course is being improved

There were 2 greens and a couple tee boxes that were closed for grading and replanting. The staff was very up-front and gave a large discount on pricing. The fairways are very nice for a muni course. pace of play was slow but it was a Sunday.

Rained out

Rain wasn't projected until 5:30 pm. Unfortunately, after finishing the 4th hole the rain started. I couldn't finish the 18 hole round. Do I receive any type of credit?

A Fun Golf Outing

Teed off at 3 pm on GolfNow. Our 3-some finished at 6:15 pm sharp. Nice steady pace. The faurways and tee grounds were in good shape. There are two temporsry greens (#10 & #17) due to current repair of those two greens. The rest of the greens were currently under some type of active greenskeeper repair but the flags were placed on those large greens in good spots were they rolled true and had marginal impact on my putting stats. They were a little slower than normal probably due to current drought conditions but our group still had plemty of one putts. I still think Buffalo Creek is a great value for the money and at this time of the year the playing pace is great. A nice links course where the wind dictates the club to use. I recommemd this course.
