Coyote Creek Golf

Beautiful course. Well maintained. Unfortunately it had some downsides. This was our first time here and we walked. Absolutely not a walking course! We like to walk our courses and this one was nearly impossible to finish. Many ravines and there aren’t any bridges. It’s straight down the ravine and straight up. Really wish when we arrived someone would have warned us that it’s really not meant to be walked. We are in our 20s and 30s and in pretty good shape but we struggled. We had to catch our breath at each hole before we could take a shot. And I would tell you to remember your bug spray but it wouldn’t matter if you did. The bugs were in our hair, nose, mouth, swarming us the entire time. Made it very difficult to try and concentrate on hitting the ball when every time you go to swing you need to get the bugs out of your eyes first. We repeatedly put on bug spray to no avail. By the time we finished all the beauty of the course and amenities the place may have offered were forgotten. All we wanted to do was get away from the bugs.

Off the beaten path. Very good layout. Do not be fooled by several of the short par 4s. You must think and play quality shots. Word of advice, take an extra club hitting into greens and be accurate I found more sand than I have hit in a long time.
Bent grass tees and fairways. Greens are fast and roll true. Greens have a lot of subtle undulations.
I highly recommend if you are in Peoria area.
