Paint Creek has a picturesque layout that wanders up and down along a rolling landscape of knolls and hillsides shaded by stands of oak and maple. The course began its life as a nine-hole, public facility back in the 1960's. It was expanded to 18 holes in the early 1990's which is when it became a private club. The remodeling was supervised by local architect, Don Childs. Since then, many other improvements have taken place at the club, including the renovation and expansion of our clubhouse.
Our gently sloping bent grass fairways offer a variety of playing adventures. You'll be crossing creeks and wetlands, playing to island and peninsula greens and taking on doglegs. Some holes, like the 6th, will give you panoramic views of the surrounding countryside.
