About Our Club

SCGC was designed by Ed Carton who was primarily influenced by Tom Fazio in aesthetics and playability. Spring Creek opened in 2006 to many accolades.

Golf Course Etiquette

Members and their guests should do their part in making their round of golf a pleasant experience for everyone at the Club. In doing so, please be mindful of the following guidelines:

Replace or fill all divots. It is preferred that players fill their divots with the displaced bentgrass. If that is not possible, please use the divot mix provided on each golf cart. Fix ball marks on the greens. All players are responsible for fixing ball marks on greens.

Rake Bunkers. Please use the provided rakes to create a playing surface in which all subsequent golfers can enjoy.

Maintain position on the golf course. Proper poistioning is half of one hole behind the group in front of you. Singles and twosomes should not expect to play through when groups are in proper position. Respect other players. Please be aware of your surroundings when playing music and be courteous of your fellow golfers. Refrain from driving golf carts close to others while they are playing and always yell “fore” if a ball is headed into the vicinity of other players. Players that stop at the turn, should not return to the course out of position. Please notify Pro Shop if your break interferes with the next group.
