History of Spring Creek

 

Spring Creek has twice been awarded as ONE OF THE TOP 12 PAR 3 COURSES IN THE UNITED STATES. The award was presented by Golf Range Magazine, a leading golf industry trade publication. This is an honor that truly recognizes Spring Creek for quality, condition, and the overall golf course operation. 

This 9 hole layout which opened in June of 1988, offers a golfing experience unique to this area and also the golf industry itself. Unlike the standard par 3 facilities of chip and putt variety, Spring Creek offers full length par 3’s using triple tees on each hole to allow the golfer to play not only to his or her abilities, but also to practice a different tee shot each time around the course. This well manicured course features bent grass greens, tees and fairways.  A fully automatic irrigation system enables Spring Creek to provide the best possible conditions to all golfers.  Whitewater Creek and the attractive ponds contribute to the overall beauty. A perfect example of this is the 4th hole – a hole featuring a large undulating green 90% surrounded by water. The scenic beauty of the hole makes this a picture in itself.  Strategic traps on each hole enable the golfer options on courage or safe play.  Large undulating bent grass greens contribute to the overall challenge and condition of the attractive golf setting.

The main concept to the theory of Spring Creek is not only the length to the greens from the triple tees, but also their placement toward each green.  Players using the back tees face additional length and must also shoot over the major portion of the water and traps.  Since 1988 only 3 people have broken par from Spring Creek’s Championship back tees.  Middle tees offer a normal par 3 golf hole with various difficulties.  Players from the front tees virtually face a trouble-free line to the green and a much shorter shot.  This tee location is ideal for beginners of all ages.  An example of this theory is Hole #5, as diagrammed.

A most innovated attraction of Spring Creek is the 21,000 sq.ft. putting course.  This green, features 18 individual putting holes spread across a large undulating surface.  A separate putting green is also available to practice your chipping and putting before your round.  There is also a 15-stall natural turf driving range including a practice fairway bunker to permit golfers to practice shot of all varieties.  Two target greens on the range give the range player the extra focus on accuracy.

The Spring Creek Pro Shop features name brand clubs to match each golfers’ game and budget.  Balls, bags, clothing and other golf merchandise is also available.

Events such as class reunions, fundraisers, company, family, charitable outings and Special events, are also part of Spring Creek’s overall enjoyable operation.  Following your outing, reserve our tropically decorated pavilion or beautiful outdoor patio for your “after golf” party.  Have your food catered or use out outdoor grill and our food stand.  Call to book your outing today!

 Spring Creek’s annual outings are the “Anniversary Golf Outing” held in June (all 9 holes have fabulous hole-in-one prizes ready for you to win – such as vehicles, $5,000 cash, trips, etc.)  Spring Creek’s “BIG CUP” Golf Outing is held on a Saturday in August and Spring Creek’s Pig-Out Golf Classic is held the 4th Saturday in September complete with a pig roast and all the fixin’s.  These outings include golf, food, prizes and live entertainment.  You won’t want to miss out on the FUN!  We also have a Red, White and Blue Outing on the 4th of July, where you play 3 red tees, 3 white tees and 3 blue tees… this is becoming a very popular outing.  Contact Spring Creek for details on these outings and many more for your participation and enjoyment. A full outing schedule is listed on our website at www.spring creekgolf.com. 

Outings are very popular at Spring Creek because of the triple tee placements. Everyone from beginner to pro can take part. Because the clubhouse, driving range and 18-hole putting course are all in close proximity to each other, the atmosphere for a fun-filled outing for everyone is here to enjoy. Schedule your outing today!!!!

 Spring Creek was designed with the public’s enjoyment as its core.  We look forward to everyone joining us to make GOLF what it is meant to be… FUN!
