About the course

Field Course: The Field course is a wide open 9 Holes, located on the main campus. This 9 has rolling hills and plays to the advantage of those with a long drive. Please be advised that there are paved walking trails so be cautious of patrons walking. Park in the back right corner of Brown Hall dorm parking lot near the 1st tee. Creekside: The Creekside course has medium to Long distances over rolling hills, with a couple of wooded holes. A shorter course, requiring more technique and finesse. Park by the tennis courts and walk between courts and Graham Center to 1st tee. As a whole, these two 9 hole courses make a fantastic 18. Great for intermediate and rec players, while offering holes that will force advanced players to have the proper placement for safe long drives.

March 2026 - course appears to be being reworked. Found only 7/9 tees and tee 6 has no signs or tee. Beautiful location. should be nice when done. tee locations do not match map but I may have chosen the wrong one.

The field course is generally open. Wayfinding is a challenge. It is a trek to get to the river course from the field course and there is no signage to assist. The river course appears to be u see construction and it is unclear where certain holes are. Some signs have different hole numbers painted on the In red spray paint. All baskets would benefit from having way finding arrows!!
