Spring Creek is a nine-hole public golf course nestled just north of Pickering, designed to be both approachable and enjoyable. It’s ideal for a quick round, a warm-up session, or family golf, but it still has enough character to engage more experienced golfers.

If you’re looking for a round that’s casual, affordable, and well-maintained, Spring Creek offers a solid choice just outside the city.
