Worst I’ve ever seen

Unbelievable how bad the course conditions were. The saddest part is that there is obviously no signs of them even making an attempt to make it better. I was literally speechless. We were gonna play 18. We played 9 and left.

Potential

This course has potential. Cost me $15 to play all 18 with cart. Right now the 9th is under construction, so instead of being a par 5 it's a 150 yard par 3. Many cart paths are in serious need of repaving, but some areas had been recently repaved which is a good sign. For the most part, tee to green conditions were terrific, but some holes had patchy spots on the greens and fairways that need some maintenance. Overall a fun course with trees, water and slopes to contend with regularly. Not very long especially with #9 under construction, but in my opinion certainly worth the $15 to go check out a few times a season.

challenging and discouraging

The courses is challenging with water. Foe unfamiliar player's the next hole location is difficult to find. Hole number 9 shortened to a small par 3 but no indication until at green. Hole not repaired from pipe line work.

great for the average golfer

i have played here numerous times and the course is always in decent shape. it has a good mixture of easier and demanding holes. if you can carry the water holes you will probably shoot a good score. overall the course is pretty fair and not too intimidating.

Lots of water, fun coarse. It rained all day when we played. There were plenty of shelters to go under. Even in the rain, good times.

Recommend but only for the price

Greens need a lot of work. Rest room locked. Distance to hazard on certain holes should be marked for better pace of play.

Needs some work.

The course has a nice layout with several straight away, fairly easy holes and some more challenging. I have played here before a few years ago and the course was in a lot better condition. Several of the greens and tee boxes are in need of repair. The grounds in general need some upkeep. And several of the ball washers were without water or towels the day we played. Still a nice layout to play with a nice staff and facility.

I was pleasantly surprised of the beauty of this course.

I enjoyed playing Turkey Creek golf course. The pace for 18 hours was approximately 3-3.5 hours. For this time of year the course was in good condition. There are some hazards but overall very players friendly course. I enjoyed myself so much that I have played course two addition rounds. I strongly recommend that players in NW Indiana and Chicago South play this course.
