About
Laid across rolling countryside atop the Niagara Escarpment, Turtle Creek Golf uses the natural undulations of the landscape to its full advantage. The hilly terrain combined with the rocky outcroppings scattered throughout add to the scenic nature of the golf course. The elevation of the terrain shifts between subtle and dramatic. For the most part, the layout is wide open but there are some trees to be wary of as well as some rough areas. Water plays a prominent role on the course, coming into play on 12 of the 18 holes. Turtle Creek's idyllic charm flows from the course to the clubhouse, which incorporates a stone building from 1835.

Played Turtle Creek on a Friday afternoon. Course was in relatively hood condition with some nice views and pretty foliage throughout the course.
However, there are some areas needing improvement. The most glaring would be the greens. All of them, even though in relatively good condition, are extremely slow. The grass really needs to be a lot shorter to increase speed and consistency. The other thing we all found was that most of the tee blocks were like rocks. It was extremely difficult to put one’s tee in. We played off the green tee blocks. I’m not sure if this applied to the other blocks as well. Also, no beverage cart or marshals on the course. Beverage cart is self explanatory but a course marshall would really improve the speed rate of play.
All in all, not a bad track and great value for the money. But if improvements to the points I’ve mentioned were made this could be an even better course.
Turtle creek
Very small green that don't reward good shots let alone great ones. In addition to the small size, they were extremely hard and with the added slope made for a miserable day of bogey golf. This is my only criticism.
Decent course, slow pace
Good course, however the greens were not in good shape and the pace of play was exceptionally slow.
Great Golf Course
Greens and rough were cut long and were wet so it was tough. I suppose the weather wasn't letting the lawn mowers out...greens were a bit too bouncy. Regardless this is a MUST PLAY golf course.
I'd also suggest more yardage markers in fairways would help speed play.
Short and slow
Beutiful looking course on the web sight. Was reasonably maintained. Challenging, but very short, even from the back tees. Pace of play was way too slow, even on a week day. Green fees coupled with the short length and slow pace won't bring me back there again.
