Deer Creek at Deer Creek Golf Club

Deer Creek, nestled in Deerfield Beach, Florida, is a course imbued with the classic ideals of Florida golf – a challenging yet accessible layout where the vibrant social fabric of the club is as significant as the scorecard. Designed in the early 1970s, its design favors the player who can work the ball, navigate doglegs, and strategically approach the greens. It's a thinking man's course, not a brute-force test of power.

While the architecture isn't attributed to a name that echoes through golf history, Deer Creek maintains a traditional, parkland feel, marked by mature trees and strategically placed water hazards. The terrain is relatively flat, typical of South Florida, yet the design incorporates subtle undulations that demand careful club selection and an understanding of the breaks on the green.

Deer Creek has long been a popular haven for local players in the South Florida golfing community. While it doesn't often appear on national radars, it is locally known for being the home of several club championships and member invitationals. It is here that a vibrant and welcoming membership have spent decades in each others’ company.
