Played Turkey Creek in July and September. Beautiful course in foothills of Lincoln, Ca outside Sacramento. Very well laid out using natural rocks formations. Lots of uneven stances due to slope of fairways, you do not want to be in the rough as it is thick. First tee box is on bluff overlooking fairway with big landing area but well guarded by trees on right if you take it too far. Really need distance control on a lot of tee shots, also it gets tighter through the middle holes of the course. On the back nine, one par 3 has huge elevation change down to hole, guarded by water along front of green, play to middle of the green as both times I played pin placement is near the water side edge of green which looks very tempting 145 yards away. Finishing hole is longer than it looks and do not be right or you will have a lot of water to carry, if you miss short right, shot up the hill is very difficult as it will be blind. Lots of fun, very challenging, worth the trip, greens fee a little pricy but carts have GPS. Food is excellent, service is very good in clubhouse and snack bar.

Expected a nicer course from all the good reviews. Holes #3, #10, and #18 are nice but the rest of the course is average. The fact there are no homes on the course is a plus but expected a nicer layou... Continue »

Expected a nicer course from all the good reviews. Holes #3, #10, and #18 are nice but the rest of the course is average. The fact there are no homes on the course is a plus but expected a nicer layout. I'm glad I played it but don't think I will be playing there again anytime soon.

I thought the course was in good shape and very enjoyable.

Located just outside of Lincoln, this course is a masterpiece with respect to the natural contours of the area. Challenging semi- blind tee shots with just enough hint of direction lend a mystic to each hole that provides exhilliration from the tee box. The kind of enthusiasm that it takes to play on a hot summer afternoon.

The greens were just severe enough to keep all putters intact after more than a few 3-putts. You have to be on the pro side to play.

Turkey Creek is an excellent course. I judge a course on how soon I return to play. I will be back soon to try Turkey!!!

The course is ok BUT the pace of play is slow, slow, and slower.Second hole begins backing up and when you get to the 10th there are a minimum of three (3) groups waiting. Have advised Pro Sho but it has not changed during the last year 5hrs and 37 minutes. Not that I counted every minute out there. Did I mention how slow it is!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
