The Course
This popular golf course is located a short 25-minute
drive from London. Owner/designer Martin Welch skillfully took advantage of the
gently flowing Gentleman Creek, bringing it into play on 11 of the 18 holes.
Several ponds introduce water on 5 more holes so having a ball retriever in
your bag is almost a necessity. While several holes stand out, the 11th hole
with its island green is the most talked about and is an excellent hole for a
tournament's "closest to the pin" contest. This 106 yard par three will have
you triple guessing your club selection and swing weight before taking your tee
shot. Another challenging hole is the 6th, a 552 yard par five. Play is
relatively straight ahead until you make your third shot, which must be played
over both a creek and a pond to reach the green.
There is a large variety of overnight accomodations only 25 minutes away, so
include Gentleman Creek in your golf getaway packages.
Two rounds of golf plus overnight starting at only $75.00 based on double
occupancy.
