Good Golf Day

First time playing Timber Creek. Excellent course. Play got a bit clogged up on back nine, but not terrible. Fairways were in great shape and greens were challenging. All in all, a great time playing.

Great day for Golf.

I’m a 11 handicap and had a great time for my 1st round this year. Greens were in great shape but T boxes were rough

There are 3 holes I’m not a fan of. If you’ve not played the course, completely blind with no clue where to hit.

Otherwise good.

Misclick on reservation

After being told that my tee time at Island View was not valid, I wanted to book a tee time at Shadowbrooke. I accidentally clicked on Timber Creedk by mistake<. I was not having a good morning. Would like a credit for fuiture play at Timber Creek which is one of my regular courses. Thank you.

The Sand Man Cometh

I always enjoy playing at Timber Creek. It is a nice course just a short drive from the city. The staff are always very welcoming and the course is usually in good shape. So I was surprised to find such a good deal on a pre-paid round for me and 3 of my cronies. It wasn't until the 4th hole that I figured out why we got the great deal. The maintenance crew were top-dressing the greens. Normally this isn't an issue for me, but the way they were doing it rubbed me the wrong way. They were spreading the sand on multiple greens before brushing it in! So there were several greens that we played that had a thick layer of sand on the surface! The greens that were brushed were fine, but going back and forth between sand and no sand made it difficult to putt consistently. I would still recommend this course to others as it is a nice course. I guess you get what you pay for.

No ball or club cleaning stations. Holes can be a bit crammed and confusing.

Timber Creek 18

Nice round of golf for a decent price. Some of the holes are right next to each other. Just a few blind shots. But the greens were in great condition. Tee boxes need a little work. Fairways are solid.

Staff Masks

I did not appreciate coming to golf with my friends from all over MN to be helped by staff in clubhouse wearing political mask. NOT THE PLACE for this.
