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.

Course conditions were good as always

I've played this course dozens of times, and it's always in good to great condition. The only negative this time was the greens are still recovering from aeration, so a little shaggy and bumpy. I expect they'll be fully recovered in 2-3 weeks.

About Time

I’ve lived here for 19 years and played Turkey Creek many times in those years and on 4/25/22 was the first time my wife and I played where we played by ourselves with no rush during the entire round and had the best time playing there or anywhere. It started by the starter in the pro shop letting us go early and the day continued on. 5 stars is not enough for that round.

Golf course review

Golf course was perfect and our foursome had a lot of fun with the challenging layout of the course. Though it wasn't as long as other courses I've played, there were definitely some difficult shots today. Pace of play was perfect as we were not pushed too much and kept up with the group in front of us for the most part even with a 1250pm tee time. Would definitely plan on playing there again. I had the misfortune of accidentally leaving a club behind on one of the holes and hope somebody turns it in.

Turkey Crap

Greens had been punched previous Monday.

Course design is not very good.

The 18th in particular has to be one of the worst designed holes in the area.

Aerated Greens

I booked on golf now and used one of my $10 discounts codes. I wasn't notified by golf now or the course that the greens had just been aerated. Also coming out of a mild winter the fairways were very splotchy. Not what I have been use to at this course. Disappointing

Great landscape fun course

The course is laid out well. If you manage your shot selections you will do fine. Greens were playing a bit slow but we're well manacured.
