Road tip call in advance and book a teatime what you see online may not be as accurate as you think. Call the pro shop and book your timeslot at least a week in advance to ensure you can get in because this is a very busy golf course. Everyone here at the course were welcoming and very friendly. We played the "Tuckahoe" nine holes. The course is pretty pricey, but you do get what you pay for the greens are great and we had no issue navigating which way to go while we were here driving the golf cart. We ended up paying $110 for nine holes on Saturday at 10 AM. The views here are amazing. It is hard to play without stopping to take photos of the mountains surrounding this course. Most holes are par for three and five. It is very manageable for any new golfers. Many of the holes are straight away, but there are lots of heels to navigate up and down while trying to get on the green. Again, if you have time make this place somewhere to stop even if you can't have a teatime in advance just come up have lunch and just enjoy the views. Can't wait to be back to play another course.

It was a hot day but the carts had 2 coolers for our use and we got a bag of ice. They have a nice putting & driving range. The marshal gave us the course rules. It was cart path only because the course was spongy. The tee boxes, fairways and greens were in excellent condition. The rolling hills give it a fun way to play the angles. The rates vary by day or time of day. This course is really nice for a public course. They have good pro shop and bar /restaurant. I would play here again.

The day I played, no wait AT ALL on a single hole nor was there anyone behind ME. I will say tho: MAKE SURE you stay on the fairway especially on, I believe, the 9th hole. I hit my 2nd shot into the brush on the left and it was like trying to find a needle in a haystack. Will DEFINITELY go back and play again! P.S. it is a bit pricey. However, if you do go and play, have fun and enjoy the round!!!

The Club at Ironwood is a semi-private country club that offers public access for higher green fees…read morethan members pay. The club offers an 18-hole (par 71) layout with five sets of tees (black, blue, white, gold, and silver), a driving range, a putting green, and a clubhouse/19th hole restaurant. Maybe I went in with too high of expectations, but I was a bit disappointed at the course conditions for it being a country club. Tee boxes were overgrown and felt more like teeing up on short rough rather than manicured, short-cut grass. Greens were slow, made worse by the recent aeration that left every putt even more slow and incredibly bumpy. And, at least from the back tees, several holes require you to hit blindly over a hill, so it's difficult to see the hole's route or where your ball ends up. At the end of the day, you're playing golf, which is great, and this is one of the few courses in Staunton, but I wouldn't return to play here again.

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.

The whole course was pristine and so beautifully maintained. I loved the secluded feel on many of the holes, where you're just focused on the golf and there's not much else around to distract you from playing golf. I loved the tall pines on the course as it gave the feel of playing golf in the North Carolina pines, except you're one state further north in Virginia. I had this course on my state-by-state golf bucket list for a long time and I'm so glad to have finally played it. I'd most definitely go back here to play again!

My sister and I were at the greens and we went past the white signs off to the side in the rough (still 30 yards from the putting green) we were in the wrong but it was an honest mistake we thought as long you stayed 30 yards it was okay. He was so rude and degrading. He talked to us like we had never played golf in our lives which I'm assuming is because we are two young women. He was tapping the rules and told us to read it three times as we were sitting in the cart. I was honestly in shock at how hateful and disrespectful he was. On top of that why is he acting like the course doesn't look like this?

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!

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.
