The Creek sits on Long Island's Gold Coast in Locust Valley, roughly thirty-three miles from New York City. The course dates to the 1920s, a period often described as the golden age of golf architecture.
It was designed by Charles Blair Macdonald, whose work drew on the principles of the celebrated holes he played and studied in Scotland around the turn of the twentieth century. The membership has kept to Macdonald's original routing and design intent over the years.
