Creek at Champions Retreat Golf Club

The Creek Course at Champions Retreat, carved from the Georgia pines near the Savannah River, is a challenge that requires both power and surgical precision. Designed by Arnold Palmer, the Creek evokes a modern interpretation of strategic, risk-reward architecture. The course favors those who can shape the ball both ways and aren't afraid to challenge the doglegs – many of which dare you to cut the corner over strategically placed bunkers and water hazards.

While Champions Retreat hasn't hosted major championships, its Creek Course is a regular stop for top-tier amateur events, testing the mettle of future stars. The layout provides a demanding, yet fair, examination of a player's complete game, especially on the undulating greens that demand creativity with the putter.

More than just a test of golfing prowess, the Creek Course provides a memorable visual experience. The natural beauty of the Georgia landscape is incorporated into the course, with towering pines framing the fairways and the gentle sounds of the creek offering a serene backdrop. Adding to the club's allure, Champions Retreat is known for its unique and convivial membership, fostering a close-knit community of passionate golfers.
