Cross Creek Country Club
Played On 10/09/2018Great course
If you want to play a course with a mix of holes that will challenge your whole game, Cross Creek is for you. The longer holes have wide landing areas, while the shorter ones require percision. The par 3s are a great mix of distance and elevation changes.
The fairways are in great shape, and the rough is penalizing. The greens are fast but, run true. They are tiered and undulating also. Bunkers are placed in strategic locations and play consistent throughout the course.
I recommend this course for the scratch and weekend duffer alike.

Played On 07/30/2018Short, but tough
If you want an accuracy challenge, this is the course you need to play. Don’t let it’s size fool you, long and short hitters alike will be challenged. You’ll hit a variety of clubs off the tees. Keep it in the short grass, or pay the price. There is very little rough, you’re either in the fairway or bushes most of the time. You also have marshy areas to deal with. I played here twice during my vacation week. 1st Time, course was saturated due to the heavy rains the area had seen for a week straight. It still was in great shape and the greens ran true. The 2nd Time, I had to face the wind. And boy, did she blow. Played 2 to 3 clubs different depending on how exposed to the sound you were. Carry plenty of balls if you play in the wind.
I’ve played this course 3 times over my 2 visits to the area, and will gladly play it again when I return. Friendly staff (major shout out to the starter/ranger) and a very well maintained course.
I only had 2 complaints about the course.
1. Range is for members only. The range is short, so they use the foam training balls. I was told they were having trouble acquiring them, thus the members only policy. They may want to consider putting in some warm up nets and mats if this continues to be an issue. Us older folks need our warm up.
2. My Fellow Golfers, FIX YOUR BALL MARKS ON THE GREENS! Can’t blame the course for this one. I was consistently fixing ball marks on the greens. I fixed 5 (not including mine) on one of the greens, and probably averaged 2-3 (again, not including mine) per green.
