Honey Creek Golf Club
About Honey Creek Golf Club
Honey Creek Golf Club is an 18-hole championship course open to public play, designed by Iowa native Bradford Benz. Shot-making opportunities appear throughout the round, with defined targets at fairway landing areas and greens protected by sculpted bunkering.
The layout combines bold earth-moving with the site's existing topography, pairing bentgrass fairways with stands of prairie vegetation and mature native trees for a distinctive visual character. Boldly contoured fairways and green complexes give each hole its own challenge, and the variety of holes fitted into the natural landscape suits golfers across a wide range of skill levels.
