Turkey Creek Golf Club in Lincoln sprawls across rolling hills that are covered with mature oak forests. The back nine even closely resembles Germany's Black Forest. The centerpiece of the course is the old granite quarry that was transformed into an expansive lake that comes into play on the third and final holes. The golf course is formidable, testing golfers with blind shots and uneven lies, but the challenges are nicely balanced by long, open fairways. Water comes into play several times throughout as well as the towering trees that blanket the landscape. The course will keep golfers on their toes but there is plenty of visual respite available. Players can often catch a glimpse of the abundant wildlife that call Turkey Creek Golf Club home, including deer, quail, foxes, and of course, wild turkeys.

Fun Course to Play

Challenging Course. Pick your targets and you can do well. An errant shot could cost you a few strokes. Have fun out there.

Great day at Turkey Creek

Turkey Creek is an excellent track in very good condition. It is a bit challenging but fair, A good variety of interesting holes and is in very good condition. Played the Blue / White combo. Tournament just finished and we were first one out afterwards so the pace was excellent. Always a good place to play.

Beautiful course

Fun course to play! Tree lined rolling fairways, some water, including two par3’s with water tee to green. Rock outcroppings, challenging but not frustrating. Had a blast and can’t wait to get back. It’ll definitely be a regular. The occasional golden eagle, deer, wild turkeys, and watch where you walk in the tall grass and around the rock for snakes. Only saw one, but not a fan! Ha.
