Rude employee

Ever since I’ve started playing Turkey Creek I’ve always known that the practice putting green to be putting only, NO CHIPPING was allowed. I remember even seeing signs to remind people of that. Well Saturday the 9th of March we had the 11:20am tee time. I was putting before my tee time and there was a person chipping near me. At first it was just a few feet then he started to fly them 20-30ft. I mentioned that this was putting only and I didn’t appreciate having to worry about getting hit with a flying ball. The person chipping told me to bad I work here. I said so that gives you the right to do whatever you want and he replied “yep” I said WOW I’m very comfortable with having to dodge chip shots. He mumbled something under his breath and continued a few more shots then walked away. I don’t know the name of the employee but he was Hispanic and his tee time was the second group behind us. We started at 11:20 so I’m thinking his time was 11:40 or 11:45. I’ll still play Turkey Creek but if this is how you let your employees act and talk to your guest there’s a big problem.

Challenge expected

Course is very challenging. Many holes are target golf. So you better bring your “A” game or a lot of extra balls. Greens are fast and tricky but very do-able. Practice putting green is pretty much what you’re going to get on the course.

Work in progress

They’re doing a lot to get this course in good shape. I just wish they would do something about their bunkers. Bunkers are hard dirt and rocks. No sand

Lack of Marshals

The course needs more Marshals. The pace of play was very slow due to a very drunk foursome in front of the group in front of us. Eventually the group in front of us was able to play thru but now the slow group is in front of us. We called once but no marshal was sent out. Little over 5hrs to play 18 holes. Ridiculous

NOT Impressed

It obvious that they put all the money in the North Course. The South Course is way over priced for the condition it’s in. Sand traps are dried up rocK beds. For a course that doesn’t have a turn between the 9th and 10th and being 95 degrees. One would think that they would have more cart people selling beverages and they need to start excepting credit cards.

Playing awesome

March 27th I got a total hip surgery on my left hip. Until May 9th I couldn’t put full weight on my left leg. So one month later, June 9th, 4 of us played at 7:45am 2 walked, 2 rode, I walked. The course was in great shape and I was actually hitting them well. A couple of times I leaned back on my right leg due to habit. But overall I played great. I had 2 birdies, 1 on the front, 1 on the back. I had 3 dbls, and 1 triple (18th hole) shot an 85. Not bad for someone who just had hip surgery. Love this course. Greens are in awesome shape.

First Eagle

The course is awesome as always. Some of the Tee boxes could use a little help. Fairways are in good shape, greens are good some are a little bumpy but overall in good shape. This course is now one of my favorites since I got my first EAGLE!!! 10th hole par 5, with 112yds left on my approach shot hit a soft pitching wedge left of the hole, ball bounced right trickled down hill and in. EAGLE!!!!

Leaves from the gates of below

The course itself was in good condition, even though it rained for 24hrs 2 days prior. (Cart path only) The greens were unusually slow for this course. Most fairways were pretty good but then you get to some and LEAVES, there were so many leaves you couldn't even see the fairways. I lost 6 balls because of leaves. You could hit the best shot in the world straight down the middle and loose it in the leaves. I should know better to play this course during fall and winter. No water buckets on course so you better bring something to drink. They didn't even have anyone driving around with water buckets nor a cart girl. No Marshall, so play was extremely slow. I probably won't play nor will I recommend anyone to play this course. I'd rather play Antelope Greens which is up the street.

Fair and challenging

First time playing after 3 weeks of rain. We walked the course after 4 days of sunshine so it dried up pretty good. The fair ways were in good condition and the greens were in excellent shape. The sand traps need a little attention though. Most are dirt and not sand. But overall great course, greens are medium speed so if you hit one firm it won't fly off the green or roll a mile. Just beware of the drive in, you have I think it's the 9th hole on your right, right against the road and you have the driving range on your left with NO NETTING so beware and pay attention. But great course

Scenic views, but double trouble

This is a beautiful course, with rolling inclines and steep down hills. The course itself was in good condition, wet in some spots but was expecting that with recent rains and parts of the course doesn't see the sun. Well, if you manage to weave yourself through the fairways and find yourself on the greens be prepared to test your putting skills. Greens are very fast but makable, in 2 or 3. All in all it was 75 degrees with picturesque views. Playing golf in the mountains on a gorgeous day, can you ask for anything better

Beginner friendly

I love this course. It's probably one of the most forgiving courses around the area. Wide fairways, big greens. Fairly smooth. The only draw back is the practice area's. The instructors there think they own the place. They take over the practice putting area. Most of the time their just standing in the way of other GOLFERS who are practicing their putting. Other then that, it's a great course to play.

fun course

I've played this course several times on this day I wasn't very happy. Tee time was at 3:30 on a Wed. Got there and they told me there's some type of class or mini tournament on the front 9 so we had to start on the 10th which was ok. Then they told me I had to share a cart with someone I've never meet before. I don't mind playing with people I don't know, but to share a cart with someone you don't know is stupid. You get stuck with someone who doesn't shut up or their slow or anything. So if I ever have to share a cart I'll go play somewhere else.

This course has amazing characters.

I now have found my favorite course. Elevated Tee's, wide open fairways, beautiful views, You can't ask for a better day of golf. A couple of Tee Box's could use a little TLC but other that, the course is in great condition. Greens are kinda fast, some holes will run for ever, Fairways are really nice. A lot of up and down fairways. I love the challenge.

Nothing special, very confusing on which way to go on the cart path, could use some direction signs.

I was very disappointed with this coarse. I booked a Tee Time at 11:20am on Dec. 27th from Golf Now. I work hard for my money, so I play where ever the best deal is most of the time. Anvil Hoffman Golf Coarse charged 37.00 to play and this is walking fee. If you want a cart it's another 16.00 each their very proud of their carts, plus there is no GPS on the cart. 53.00 dollars per round is not a savings in my book. The coarse has nothing special, no WOW factor. Not worth it. There are better coarses in the area for less. WILL NOT RETURN.

Great for short game practice (par 58)

This course is a Par 58. Four par 4s and the rest are par 3s. 77 yard par 3s to 200 yard par 3s( white tees). Some water on the front 9, back 9 is wide open. If your time is short and the course is light, you do this course in 2 hrs.

This course makes you think

With elevated Tees on the 2nd hole, to the par 3's over water . This course has 45 degree fairways that dog leg left and right . Fun course for everyone. The prices are great, from 20 bucks on up. They always have great deals. The only complaint I have is their Bar and Restaurant , it's small and takes to long to get anything. But other than that I love the course and the staff is great.
