    Let me start on a positive. The golf course is beautiful. As an African American member I…read moreexperience poor treatment from several members of the pro shop staff. I had an incident with Kathy Ballard this evening while dining at the Tavern ( restaurant on site). My niece was playing on the putting green which is located adjacent to the outdoor dining area. Several children frequently play in this area while their parents dine. Tonight Kathy came down from the pro shop to tell my niece's mother that her child could not play in the area because " the Fluvanna HS Homecoming kids being on site and ruining the area with their high heels" WTF does this have do do with a 4 year old playing? Kathy made no sense and she clearly took her anger out on an innocent 4 year old black kid. Yesterday I was at the same location and a white family had 3 children playing on the same putting green, doing cartwheels on greens. No one came to say anything to these children. I sat there for over 2 hours and watched these kids do whatever they wanted. Spring Creek Golf Club has NO diversity and they make it known that they so not welcome minorities.

    Held my baby shower here back in the fall - can't say enough about how amazing the staff was. They…read moretruly went above and beyond while making you feel like family. Food was delicious and beautifully displayed for our guests. Will be back for regular drinks and meals in the future.

    Worst Golf Course I have ever been to. Do not take any type of card, wouldn't let us out at 4:45 in…read morea cart because the lady was upset that we thought they could take credit card! Told us we could walk back to whatever state we came from because we had northern and southern accents as a few of us were from the south. Not to mention, she didn't pick up a single call when we were trying to schedule a tee time all day. The course is very poorly kept and looked in terrible shape. We went there because it was cheap and honestly $37 for a round at that course was much more expensive than what it would be worth to play there. I'm a +2.6 handicap, have played a large amount of golf as I was raised on the gentleman's game, and I recommend that you play any other course in the state of Virginia. I'm ranting because I'm upset that the lady had such a bad attitude and was lowkey throwing a temper tantrum because we were surprised that they didn't take credit card. But to be profiled as a bad golfer because I'm young and for the lady to have been so disrespectful to us costumers who were respectful and just wanted to play golf is beyond me, not cool at all!

    The course is much improved and will do so the next few years. The greens have challenges to them…read moreas a number of them depending on pin placement will require you to check from both directions, as you should do anyway. The woods frequently will gooble up the ball if you aren't in the fairway on many holes. Nature is all around you so be careful for snakes. The views are magnificent if you aren't in the middle of a cloudy early morning. Red tees are much shorter than whites making some easy Par 5's. Excellent rates, lowest I've ever paid.

    Fantastic layout with a good amount of water coming into play. I could play here dozens of times…read moreand not get tired of it. May be walkable on a nice day. But the conditions were just okay. They seem to be fighting another strain of grass creeping into some of the fairways. Greens were pure though. Members don't seem to fill their divots or rake the bunkers which is sad. (One also decided to slam his car door into my car when I was in it. No reaction from him.) Nice grass driving range and putting green. Didn't see a chipping green or bunker area. I will definitely be back but will park away from everyone else. 1 almost drivable par 4. Favor the right side off the tee. 2 beautiful hole with water up the left side. 3 brutal, winding par 5. I'd say driver is not the play off the tee, but your second shot has to be far enough up the second fairway to have a shot at the green. 4 intimidating par 3 over water. 5 cool looking split fairway par 4 that climbs the hill. Green has a big elevation change in the middle. 6 dogleg right par 5. Third shot you'll see the stone wall and creek that guard the green. 7 downhill par 3 with a huge green with a ridge cutting off the right third of it. 8 uphill par 4 with an elevated green that's hard to hold. 9 you really have to thread your drive and favor the right side. 10 beautiful dogleg right with a second shot down the hill. You'll also see all the water that'll come into play later in your round. Just beautiful. 11 uphill par 5. Driver off the tee except for the longest players. 12 fantastic looking hole. Well bunkered downhill par 4 with the second shot over water. 13 tough downhill par 3. Your view of the green may be obstructed which is a different but fun feature. 14 I've never seen this many bunkers on a drivable par 4, but the fairway is very generous left of them. 15 I hope you hit a cut off the tee. Toughest par 4 in my opinion. 16 great par 5 along the water. 17 couldn't even make the bunkers from the tips with a well hit 3 wood. I hit land then it bounced back in the water. Only reason why I don't think playing the tips are for me here. 18 from the back tees, I couldn't see any of the landing area. That is a tough tee shot. The green doesn't get any easier with a big slope in the middle of it.

Superbly maintained Bent Grass fairways and greens make this one to put on your bucket list. Lots of other things to do in the area as well including Appomattox Courthouse and Thomas Jefferson's Poplar Forest retreat. The long drive into Amherst is well worth the experience and at a very reasonable rate as well. Don't forget to bring your bug spray.
