Hunter's Creek Golf Club opened in February 1986 as the recreational centerpiece to an expansive planned community encompassing six square miles and 4,000 acres.

While the fairways are spacious and forgiving, they are long, so the tee shot is key. 'The drive is at a premium here because of the length of the golf holes,' according to Tom Gavan, who helped create and nurture the course. 'The course can be a test of long-drive stamina or a reasonable challenge from the blue (6,905 yards) or white (6,521 yards) tees.' Regardless of which of the five tees you choose, you still have the daunting elements - wind, water, vegetation and sand - with which to contend. Opening Hours 1/14/05 - 3/31/05 $65.00 4/1/05 - 4/31/05 $50.00 5/1/05 -11/22/05 $40.00 7:00am - 6:30pm The par-3 6th hole is a 220-yard (193 from blues) test of patience, skill and accuracy.To the left of the pencil-thin fairway is water, which flows past the green; to the right, woods for half the distance and Little Lake Tern provides company the rest of the way to the green.You need a long iron to thread the space between the water (avoiding a nest of trees on the left, 50 yards from the green) to land on an unforgiving, three-leaf clover-shaped, elevated green -with aforementioned water on your right, water on your left, bunkers in front and back and sloping to irritate you if you err.If the wind is blowing, you take your chances.
