Turkey Creek Golf Club in Lincoln, California, is shaped by three distinct landscapes. The front nine runs through rolling oak woodlands, while a rugged quarry area and a densely wooded back nine reminiscent of a European forest round out the layout. Wildlife is common along the course, including wild turkeys, deer and a variety of birds.
The course presents a varied test suited to both low-handicap players and casual golfers. Management places emphasis on pace of play, targeting rounds of about four and a half hours through tee time spacing, course conditioning and on-course staff.
