North Course ___________

Forest Creek’s North's signature feature is the lake that comes into play on holes 15, 16 and 17. The signature hole is #15 a 432-yard par-5 that requires a tee shot over a corner of the lake with the water continuing down the right side while a collection of fairway bunkers are found up the left side of the short grass. The hole plays straight and flat and features a small bunker in front of the green and another left of the putting surface. It’s a memorable hole and a classic Fazio trait where Tom saves the prettiest holes for last.
