Willowcreek is a 27-hole layout in the Chemung Valley, between Elmira and Corning, off the Southern Tier Expressway at Big Flats.
The entire course is along the north bank of the Chemung River and is a shot maker's delight but a bomber's nightmare where placement and accuracy are rewarded and off-line shots penalized. The Pines/Bitter Creek is the usual route and is characterized by narrow, old-growth, hardwood tree-lined fairways with water hazards in play on four holes. There are four sets of tees overall, with the tips playing to 6,841 yards, 72.2/126, course/slope ratings, designed by Robert Tallman. The Willows is lined with willow trees leading to small, perched greens. It is 3,150 yards, 35.8/119, course/slope ratings from the tips.
