Onion Creek is a private course open to some public play through tee time websites such as golfnow.com. If the possibility of playing a historically significant track impresses you any, you'll be glad you played Onion Creek. Originally designed by 3-time Masters champ Jimmy Demaret, with another 9 holes woven in by Crenshaw-Coore, Onion Creek was the birthplace for what is now known as the Champions Tour with the 1978 Liberty Mutual Legends of Golf. If you care more about actual golf, well, you're in luck; Onion Creek's just the place. Well laid-out, in good shape as you'd expect, and eminently playable, Onion Creek simply invites you to bring your game. You'll be glad you played Onion Creek.
