Turkey Creek Golf Club
About
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.

18th tee box, with a few elevation changes and water on the left. If you feel confident, slug it off to the left and clear the water, putting you in a great position for a second shot to the green Photo submitted by copz1998 on 07/20/2018

Slow Pace of Play
It would have been a perfect day had the foursome in front of us showed a bit of golf etiquette. They hit multiple balls off the tee and fairways. We had to wait on them almost the entire round. Other than that, the weather was perfect. Love the course layout. Course was in great condition.
Best public course in Lincoln/Rocklin/Roseville imo!
Great course, well kept, challenging, good rates. Probably Ty e new home course.
Amazing course
Always in great shape. Only issue for me is the 18th hole. Wish I could hit a driver on that hole. Well there is a slim spot to hit to but not wise.
The weather was nice with friendly staff. The course condition was average. The speed of the greens were inconsistent and with patches of burned areas. The tee box was average and there were many burned areas on the fairway and wet and muddy areas on the lower spots of the fairway. Lastly, the pace of play was terrible. We waited on every shot some were as long as 5-10 minutes. The round took over 5 hours and 30 minutes.
Pure
The Bermuda is thriving! The time of year is here- Greens were great! Tees and fairways are perfect. Go to Turkey for a treat, no tricks.
Course in good shape--blind shots & doglegs
It's been over 20 years since I played this course. Greens are in very good shape, but not fast--comfortable speed though. Course condition was in very good shape too. Layout of course however, can be difficult. There are many dogleg fairways on this course. Some doglegs are very sharp making it difficult to determine where to hit the ball. Several holes have blind shots. It takes a couple rounds here to know the layout and feel comfortable. Some golfers will not return because of the tight layout. But it is a very nice wooded style course.
Turkey Creek
Course was in good condition tee to green. Some challenging holes and routing. Definitely the type of course you need to play a few times. Greens have ball marks throughout every green. You’re constantly putting through mini land mines. It’s a shame that people simply don’t repair them….and not just their own. Nice driving range and putting green. I’ll be back.
Late summer
Green in excellent shape!
Aeration of areas in front of greens well managed to minimize the effect on play.
Course always provides a great challenge!
Cheers 🍻
Needs a lot of TLC
I've played here many times, and every time I come back the conditions are different. Sometimes very good, sometimes bad. Lately it's been trending more towards bad.This course has so much potential, but they just aren't doing maintenance. Fairways are really poor, lots of bare spots, crabgrass, and overall bad condition. The greens are ok, but they don't roll very true. Very sad to see what used to be a magnificent course in such deteriorated condition. The layout is very good, but needs maintenance and upkeep.
Great track!
Beautiful course in great shape, reasonably priced. You can’t beat it.
