Well worth the price
A little windy and that made it tough. The fairways and greens were very well taken care of for this price point. I’m coming back in one to two days after talking some buds to come out

Hidden gem is an understatement
I can not believe this course only charges what they do for a round here! Great tee boxes, wonderful fairways, and the greens are better than $70 courses. This is one of my favorite tracks to play. If you haven’t played here yet I highly recommend it!

Poor course pace and conditions
Took 5 and a half hours to play 18, there was no sand added to the traps. It was like hitting off concrete. Not worth going again. Wouldn’t recommend

Great Value Course
Hard to find a better value than Deer Creek. It’s long where you have to use all your clubs, the greens are in great shape, and the course is in good shape. Outside of the bunkers holding water, everything else was in line with what you’d expect. Had a great time and was pleased with the course and layout.
