About the neighborhood
This neighborhood is great value for the money. It is close proximity to downtown yet you still feel like you're away from the busy city. You'll find wild turkeys, deer, foxes, owls and much more wildlife living near the creek. This community has wrestled with flooding over the years, so due diligence in home selection is a must. The huge old trees, wide streets and creek frontage make this neighborhood very appealing.

Onion Creek Golf
Private Country Club
Onion Creek has 27 holes. The original 18 hosted the Legends of Golf back in the 1970's and 80's and is respected as the birthplace of the senior golf tour. This course runs along the creek on many holes and is covered with huge old oak trees. This layout coupled with the sloping terrain can get you in trouble if you don't hit the ball straight. It's a very challenging course, but a fair course. And, the greens are difficult to read for the best of putters. Super fun to play, especially if you have a caddy to help you with insider knowledge.
