Klein Creek Golf Club

First time here. Course layout was challenging but not overly difficult. Condition of course was excellent and we finished in 3:45 minutes. Would definitely return and recommend to friends.

Klien Creek is a great course to test your skilz. The fairways are tight with a lot of water on one side of the fairway on most holes. One miss hit and your balls are definitely getting wet.

Enjoy

Overall good golf course. I would recommend to beginners like me.

The staff was amazing!! The course was challenging. But fun nonetheless. Really enjoyed playing there

Overall, a very nice course. Clubhouse was extremely nice. The bathrooms on the course need a good sweeping. Full of spider webs.

There was a time when I knocked Klein Creek firmly for the many problems it suffered for whatever reason that led to that. In my negative reviews I always preface the observations by stating that "I only do so in the hopes that it may lead to action and improvements will be made"

Since the people at Klein Creek actually pulled this off, I feel that a detailed follow up is in order. The improvements made over the last several years which appear to be ongoing, are overcoming all of the previous challenges one by one and the overall results are impressive.

Of the many improvements, the ones most important to me are as follows:

1) Course Conditions Tee to Green:

The tee boxes are clean, flat, and well maintained. The fairways are well watered and manicured. The rough has thickened to a healthy state leaving it penal without making it difficult to find your ball; We never had a problem locating our ball and that is in my experience the primary factor for poor pace of play issues.

Sand Bunkers are consistent in play, well maintained, and free of debris.

Most important of all to me are the greens. Whatever they are doing, I hope they keep it up! Today they appeared in near perfect health, speed, and consistency. I would say the best I have seen at Klein Creek for as long as I can remember. Even as we followed a large outing, there were few signs of damage and shockingly, players were actually fixing their ball marks?!? They must have group hypnotized them before the shotgun start. I've honestly never seen anything like it. I expected to seen dozens of ball marks however I struggled to find and repair more than two or three.

Special Mention: The many sand bunkers at were grassed in are maturing nicely and today were clearly marked as GUR. At this pace I'd say they'll be playable before the end of the year. The waste bunkers I thought were an eyesore when they first made the move but now they look like I feel they should...a little grungy with a pebbly base and native grasses growing however they are able to survive and gravely sand and weedy spurge or clover patches and large rocks cast about as if a giant walked through carrying his rock collection with a hole in his pocket. You send your ball in there and maybe you'll have a great lie but maybe you'll be in serious trouble. So yeah...don't go in there!

2) Clubhouse Atmosphere, Service, and Food.

Food is not just good, it's exceptional. Assuming you have no food hang ups, you can honestly throw a dart at the menu and not go wrong. I had a simple club sandwich which was somehow made elegant. I don't expect elegant at any reasonably priced golf course, but that's what I got and it was delicious.

Staff everywhere, regardless of duty is not just friendly, they're personable, light-hearted, and attentive without being overly so or in your face. Best of all is that they appear to genuinely enjoy their work. This—above all—puts customers like me at ease. I've been to far too many courses that the golf itself was soured only by an arrogant or grumbly or otherwise maladjusted pro shop manager, starter or cart servicer attendant who woke up on the wrong side of the bed with their sole focus on the day being to make everyone know that they want nothing more than to be somewhere else. From my experience, such people don't exist at Klein Creek. It's a major feat and reason enough to happily return.

Living in Wheaton, I'm glad to welcome Klein Creek back again as a local favorite and I look forward to playing many more rounds this year and seeing the improvements continue into the future. To everyone involved, thank you for turning it around!

I played here a month ago and the greens are 10X better than they were then. Pace was good until the 13th hole when we found 4 groups on the same hole. This course could use a few course rangers. I still love coming to this course to practice and enjoy this game despite the slow down.
