Hidden Gem

Front 9 feels like you’re up north with elevation changes and challenging lies. Back 9 is like a links style course with narrow fairwa, dog legs and bunkers in landing zones. Found it late last year and have come back 3 times already. Finally getting a group of my friends out to see this place tomorrow. My new favorite course. I’ll keep coming back. Shepherds feel without the price tag.

Beautiful!!!

Entire staff is super friendly and helpful !! Course is challenging for all types of golfers, while still being extremely fair off most tee boxes.

Place is a joke

Bought two group golfers and the place would not let me book since “members were already playing” despite times being available on golf now. New ownership has really taken a dive.

Happy that they now allow public play!

It's the second time I've played the course and I liked it even more. The course layout is very good, everything is right in front of you, no blind tee shots or tricked out holes. I expected the greens to be in a little better shape as the course used to be strictly private, but they weren't bad. I'm looking forward to playing it more next year.

Great Course

Nice course, great tee boxes, fairways etc. Ram into one of the owners on a twilight single tee time. Real nice guy along with the rest of staff, lots of wild life. It’s a little tight so make sure you hit ‘em straight!! I’d recommend the course especially for the money.

Nice course ... but ... :(

Paint Creek is a nice course but we played there in a tournament and we had to take a storm break for a while. Paint Creek said we couldn't finish because another storm was coming our way BUT they then allowed one of their leagues to play. So we weren't allowed to finish our last 4 holes so their league could start on time! They didn't let us finish even though we had to stop because of lightning but they did allow their league to play.
I will remember that and will not go back there.

Paint Creek

Loved the front nine, old school, back nine was added years later and there was a feeling of 2 very different nines. Not that this was an awful thing but to me the front felt like a country club and the back did not.
