***THIS COURSE WAS AERATED ON MARCH 5-6***

Morgan Creek is a surprisingly challenging golf course due in large part to interesting man made shelfs and fairway contouring in combination with a layout which requires a bit of thought as to how one might hit off the tee or an approach shot. Built within a housing development of the same name, Morgan Creek has some nice charactoristics built in, namely the hearty oak trees on the property which make this course feel older than it really is. Approx. half of the fairways are paralleled by homes, there are several areas of environmental out of bounds, and a few holes feature water as the primary hazard in play.

As the greens were recently aerated, I was able to get a Sunday afternoon rate of $20. Our group of 3 teed off around 3:30 and concluded at sundown, the pace of play was generally good though we did have to wait a bit on the back nine on a couple holes, but nothing out of the realm of unreasonable. The tee boxes were in good shape, fairly level and pretty clean in appearance. The fairways and roughs were a bit patchy, areas of thin grass followed by sections of deeper growth. As the greens were aerated, no comment, though the sand seemed a pinch on the thin side but still playable. I greatly enjoyed the round and would look forward to playing it again should an opportunity come up.
