About this course

Highland Nine at The Players Club at Deer Creek, carved into the rolling landscape of West Omaha, offers a unique proposition: a condensed, challenging layout imbued with the spirit of the full 18. This is not a mere afterthought; it's a meticulously designed nine-hole course intended to test every facet of a golfer's game. While not widely chronicled in architectural history, the Highland Nine, like its larger counterpart, reflects a modern approach to course design, prioritizing playability without sacrificing strategic depth. The terrain lends itself to subtly undulating fairways and strategically placed bunkers that guard deceptively small greens. Here, accuracy reigns supreme. The course subtly favors those who can work the ball; expect doglegs, both right and left, and approaches that demand precise distance control. Beyond the golf, The Players Club at Deer Creek cultivates a tightly knit community, known locally for its accessible and welcoming atmosphere. It's a place where a quick nine after work seamlessly blends into post-round camaraderie. The club’s unpretentious character extends from the first tee to the nineteenth hole, further reinforcing the essence of a great golf destination in the heart of Nebraska.
