Great golf course. "Links style" but you have to be accurate off the tee. None of the holes border one another, so a missed fairway will cost you. First cut of rough is penal and the second cut is fescue that's thigh high. Greens and bunker complexes are in great shape. Greens are fast but they roll true. I can see why they host the US Open Qualifiers. If you struggle off the tee, I recommend playing it from a tee box closer than you think. Golf course becomes very difficult with wind. Course is set up to walk. only one instance where you're walking a long way from a green to the next tee box. The only thing holding it back from being 5 stars are some patches on the course that are a little beat up (you can see it in one of the photos below).

On May 2, my wife I hosted our daughter’s wedding at your Walnut Creek Golf Preserve facility. Our selection of Walnut Creek was based on several factors: the location, the facility quality and cost, but the primary reason for making the decision was because of your event manager, Sydni. She was welcoming, knowledgeable, and gave us confidence that the wedding would go off without a hitch. She listened to our needs, quieted our concerns and was a very good communicator, and she delivered! Living in Nashville makes planning all the little details challenging. Sydni took control and guided us through the entire process. She made herself available as needed, and also connected us with your executive chef, John, who walked us through what the menu possibilities could be and suggested quantities we would need. The meal was fabulous! Chef John also created a special menu for the children attending. We cannot tell you how pleased we are that we chose Walnut Creek! Everything that was promised, was delivered! Food and quantities were just what our guests needed, and the quality was as good as promised. The staff, from servers to bartenders and everyone else associated with the event were wonderful. Thank you so much for helping to make our daughter’s wedding very memorable. And a very special thank you to Sydni. She was exceptional! We highly recommend Sydni, Chef John, and Big Fork at Walnut Creek! Thank you again! John & Tracy Halloran

Whenever I visit my best friend in Denver, I always bring my clubs, and Walnut Creek Golf Preserve is one of his top recommendations. The course was in excellent condition, with beautiful scenery that made each hole memorable. It offered a great mix of challenge and enjoyment, and I had a fantastic time. I’m definitely playing here again on a future trip back to Colorado!

Got hit by a ball on hole 2 tee box and the group behind didn’t shout “fore.” They came over later, I told them their ball hit me, and they claimed they didn’t know. No apology — instead, they told us to keep up with the pace. Later, they called the marshal. When we explained what happened, the marshal just said there was nothing he could do and told us to keep up the pace. Pretty disappointing safety and customer service experience. (Here’s a picture of the group in front of us on the 3rd hole where we are not keeping up with the group in front)

Great course and fun to play. Staff could be friendlier. They will charge no show fees if one or more drop out of your group, they say they will send a confirmation of tee time prior if you need to make any adjustments. I never got one. They’ll charge you after the fact and not let you know while checking in. Left a sour taste in my mouth with the staff, also not willing to accommodate after that fact. Just fyi.
