Overview
Built by Stephen Kay on former farmland where potatoes were grown, Willow Creek Golf and Country Club in Mount Sinai opened in 2005 as part of a real-estate development and remains a semi-private course. Articles at the time likened some of the qualities to Shadow Creek in Las Vegas, showing the architecture de-jour of the time. Kay moved nearly 1.6 million cubic yards of excess material to lower the level of the course by 15 feet—and some of the features include a split fairway, water hazards, a circulating man-made creek, waterfalls and an island green on the signature 16th hole, somewhat reminiscent of Shadow Creek.
