Built during the 1920’s, considered the golden age of golf architecture, The Creek is located on Long Island’s Gold Coast just thirty-three miles from New York City. The membership maintains an unwavering commitment to Charles Blair Macdonald’s original design and vision. With each of his creations, Macdonald’s objective was to capture the principles of the great holes he played and studied throughout Scotland at the turn of the twentieth century. An epic combination of parkland and seaside golf, this McDonald-Raynor classic serves up a greatest hits of the duo’s favorite design elements.
After a solid but sedate tree-lined opening five holes, the course explodes into glory at the spectacular 6th, which plays into a famous reverse Redan green. From there, players hit down to Long Island Sound. Hole Nos. 10 through 14 wind through sand and water, an unforgettable trip to the beach highlighted by a massive island Biarritz green.
