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.

Nice open coarse

Coarse was laid out well, open yet necessary to keep in fairways. Will definitely return. A little on the pricey side, but nice coarse. Spacing of tee times were great, only got backed up the last 4 holes.

Perfect Day

An absolutely perfect day. The course was in great shape. What I like best about this course is of all the public courses in South Placer County this is the only one where there are no houses around it. It is always well maintained and the staff is very friendly.

Gimmicks galore

If your a fan of gimmick golf holes you will enjoy this course... I'm personally not a fan of holes that you get penalized for hitting good shots! Also would be nice if they would tell you the greens were punched when making a tee time! Otherwise it was beautiful! Had fun and the pace of play was very good!

This course has interesting features

It was most helpful that it is visible from the main road, and that there were signs so one doesn't have to get lost!!! This is our third or fourth time in the last two yeaars and we have enjoyed the course each time. There were challenging features but it made the course more interesting and the weather helped a lot.
The trees made the temperature manageable.

greens need some luv

Overall, the course was in decent shape and greens were receptive to shots. The greens were very inconsistent with all of the winter weed grasses on some of the greens.

Fairways dry and fast

Fairways dry and fast and the greens were not very soft, in fact they were rather hard and approach shots did not always hold. Putting was true, however

Nice course, the greens are faster than other golf courses in the area.

The course design is one of the best, challenging "Dog legs". The greens' surface are a little hard. Fairways are in good conditions.

BMW

Have played this course many times, it is one of my top two courses in the Sacramento area, about a 40 mins from downtown Sacramento. Course is very well maintained, staff and staff services are tops. Front nine is municipal like with open fairways, and limited obstacles. The back nine is "beautiful" if you enjoy playing in a California oak forest with interesting granite outcroppings . It is more challenging, requiring you to select your shots and approaches to the greens.

Great course

Well maintained, great price and beautiful scenery. A few challenging holes with some crazy doglegs, and a very hard 18th but it makes up for it with several hole with long wide fairways. Definitely recommend.

Good course!

I played this course twice in the last week with my dad as I am on break from college. The layout makes for fun and strategic golf. I was very satisfied with the overall quality of the course. The greens are true. The 18th is a very excitin ending. I was shooting for the low 80s yesterday and ended 18 with a snowman for 88. I recommend this course to everybody and will play here again.

Excellent shape

Fun track, nicely maintained, greens were slow from the previous rainfall but in great condition. Always enjoy the scenery of this course. No two holes a like especially the par threes. Love the huge boulders and the variety of trees as well as the beautiful ponds. Don't miss out on this gem!

Always enjoy Turkey creek, but..

For some reason, they did not let me change the payment method at the course, they said it was prepaid when the receipt emailed to me clearly shows an amount due at the course. I don't really mind paying for it, but when I have free rounds to use up, being charged for it is a little annoying.

Great course but SLOW.

The staff and the course were great, but it was an excruciatingly long round. At one point there were three groups backed up on one hole.
