Detailed description of Maple Creek Golf Club
Maple Creek Golf Club, previously named Winding Brook Golf Club is a Public 18 hole golf course located in Shepherd, Michigan.
Maple Creek Golf Club opened for play in 1970.
The Maple Creek Golf Course has water hazards (a creek and several lakes) that come into play on several holes. The Little Salt River meanders throughout and challenges the golfer on several holes. This combination of water, along with hills and valleys throughout the course, create a challenging and scenic golf experience. The small greens are undulating and the fairways are narrow.
Par for the course is 72. From the back tees the course plays to 6,669 yards. From the forward tees the course measures 4,964 yards. The longest hole on the course is # 18, a par-5 that plays to 545 yards. The shortest hole on the course is # 11, a par-3 that plays to 135 yards from the back tees.
Watch out for # 6, a 464 yard par-5 challenge and the #1 handicap hole on the course. The easiest hole is # 11, a 135 yard par-3.

This course was purchased about three years ago and the name changed to Maple Creek. A beautiful pro shop, grille and fine dining facility was constructed and the food is getting rave reviews in the area. My suggestion for immediate improvement is to improve the cart paths. Most are dirt/gravel and are in need of smoothing out. A real positive in addition to my rating choices is the signage. One always knew which way to go to the next hole. Great course nearby to me. I will play it more next year.
