Timber Creek Golf Course

Timber Creek Golf Course emerges from the gently rolling landscapes of Dixon, Illinois, as a testament to the timeless charm of golf. Established in 1915 and crafted in the "Golden Age" style by the renowned architect Tom Bendelow, Timber Creek offers a unique blend of challenge and accessibility.

The course is characterized by its softly undulating fairways, offering ample room off the tees while presenting strategic challenges through varied elevations. As players approach the bent grass greens, they are greeted by thoughtfully placed sand traps that enhance both the difficulty and the personality of the course. The addition of new sand has made these hazards more playable, ensuring that they add to the experience.

With a total length of 6,504 yards and a course/slope of 71.1/122, Timber Creek is not only a course that tests the skills of the avid golfer but also remains playable for those looking to improve their game. The architect's design intention is clear: provide a course that is as enjoyable as it is challenging.

Golfers also have the luxury of honing their skills at Timber Creek's 250-yard driving range. The use of limited flight balls allows players to tune every club in their bags. Additionally, two expansive practice greens allow guests to perfect their putting and short game in peaceful surrounds.

After the round, golfers can retreat to Bogey's Bar, the facility's 19th hole, for a relaxing drink and a selection of snacks. It's the perfect place to discuss the day's play, revel in the successes on the course, or simply unwind in the a laid-back atmosphere.
