Disappointing Customer Service

I booked a tee time for 4, through Golf Now. I was charged approximately $23 to reserve the tee time. The cost of the round was $61.50 per player. One would naturally assume that the $23 I spent to reserve the slot would go towards my green fees. Nope. Guy in the clubhouse charges me $61.50. When I asked him why this was happening, he said he had no clue because he does not work for Golf Now. Ended up paying nearly $85 for a round of golf at Creeksbend. Called Golf Now customer service. They apologized & are sending me a dozen golf balls to make it right. I called Creeksbend to speak to the manager who couldn’t be bothered to return my call. I’ve played this course for years and bring friends to play there from outside the area. Not anymore. A little customer service goes a long way. That seems to be forgotten here.

Not my favorite

All the fairways and rough were very high and needed to to be cut. Spent a lot of time hunting for balls. Poor bunkers. Nice setting out in the countryside but felt like much more could be done with the track.

Only golf course in 20 miles open and playable. It snowed 12 inches 8 days before

There were 13 holes without snow. The course was flexible about play. I paid for 9 holes. Walking and received great value and enjoyed getting out.

Course staff was very helpful. They had 265 players the Sunday before the Monday I played.

I would recommend this course for people who want to have a good time playing golf.

Beautiful setting with mature trees, some water, sand traps and variety of terrain. Average challenge for amateur players. Greens kept in fine condition with well mowed fairways. A course that is fun to play.

Another good one to try

Although I've played this course several times, I often forgot just how much fun it was. The course has some unique challenges with elevation changes, forced carries, and just overall course knowledge being critical. You should definitely try and play this one a few times to really get the feel of it.

The range would be the only somewhat negative and that's not a big deal. You can hit balls, but usually the ones provided seemed less than new. Just planning to warm up, it is great -- tune your game, not so much. But again, the course is well worth the drive and the staff is always friendly

Everything you can ask for

I've played this course for the last 7-8 years and have never had a bad experience with the staff, course or other patrons. They are family focused and that's what's has me coming back!!

Well done CB!

Great course, excellent experience.

This course has been a joy the last few times I've played it, the course has consistently been in good conditions even after a significant rain. The staff is attentive and engaging. The pace of play at times can back up but others on the course have always been willing to join to make a new two, three, or foursome. Overall nothing but good reviews for this course. I'd play it every week if I could convince my wife.

Excellent value, friendly staff

I generally play CreeksBend a couple trips a year. It's a short drive south of the Twin Cities. The staff is friendly and the course has an interesting and somewhat challenging layout. The 12th and 14th holes are the most interesting with unforeseen hazards in play. Excellent value, fun course.

keep your head down

The greens were in great shape and were firm yet held the ball. There were some fairways and tee boxes that could have used come TLC but overall they were well maintained. We were surprised by the number of blind tee shots and not really being able on several occasions, to know the shape of holes or an aiming point off of the tee. We enjoyed the weather and the day on the course.

The staff was very attentive and pleasant. The course was in great shape. The greens are challenging to read, but roll true. The beautiful girl on the refreshment cart kept us topped off, which I appreciate. It was a great day, an excellent course and I'd recommend playing here!
