In an ongoing effort to meet the needs of our golfers, superintendent, Don Laver is constantly looking for innovative ways to improve your experience at Salt Creek Golf Links.

Track club and course developments by clicking on the thumbnails below.

Clubhouse

Staff and golfers are enjoying the new look following a major transformation of the clubhouse during the winter months and part of the spring. Noticeable changes on the exterior include new siding and windows, front door relocation with porch, stone brick walk way and renovation of the front garage into additional space within the clubhouse. On the interior, dining and seating have been expanded to accommodate groups of up to 76 with new table and chairs. Redesigned washroom facilities for men and women are now handicap accessible. A new energy efficient refrigeration unit has been installed to keep food and beverages chilled for after a hot day on the course.


Benches

New concrete framed benches have been recently added to the tee block areas which provide a professional, yet easy to maintain look during your golfing experience.

Hole #14

Disease, amount of sun, air and traffic flow were all factors in deciding to reverse the layout of hole #14. Golfers must tee off on an elevated deck situated behind the old green. Tee shots to the green are guarded by trees on either side of the fairway, out-of-bounds at the rear and a water hazard to the right of the green.


Hole #5

What used to be a mindless tee shot to an open green, now requires thought and precision to avoid a penalty stroke in the lateral hazard located approximately 100 yards off the tee mid-right of the fairway. Construction continues.

Covered Patio

Whether you are in between nines, finished your round or hosting a golf tournament, this covered patio will suit all your entertaining needs. Designed with vinyl pull-down sides for inclement weather and ceiling fans for those hot humid days, this multi-functional covered patio allows golfers and guests the opportunity to socialize outside while being shielded by the elements.
