GlenOaks Country Club
For passionate golfers, knowing that the GlenOaks Country Club is just a five-minute jaunt from our Norton Commons apartments is quite heartening. This members-only club offers a fun yet challenging 18-hole championship course suitable for all skill levels. Its dunes are Bermuda grass, and the tees and greens are Bent grass, promising excellent playability on this unusually gentle rolling terrain for Louisville. Discover more about the course and how you can secure a membership on the GlenOaks Country Club website.
Hunting Creek Country Club
The Hunting Creek Country Club, another members-only club with a remarkable golf course, is worth mentioning. The 7,157-yard championship course offers fantastic views of Kentucky’s sloping hillsides. The distinctive setup of the course, where no two holes meet, adding a wide, tree-lined fairway and lengthy green-to-tee drives, enhances the course’s “rural” feel. They also offer simulators, practice facilities, clinics, tournaments, and more. Find more details and secure a membership via the Hunting Creek Country Club website.
Sleepy Hollow Golf Course
A short drive of less than ten minutes from our apartments in Norton Commons will get you to Sleepy Hollow Golf Course. This golf course, surrounded by horses and farmland, is open to the public while also offering memberships. The 9-hole, regulation-length course is characterized by its uneven terrain, tree-lined fairways, and challenging greens on every hole, with three of them having water features. No tee times are required for this course spread over 3,206 yards. Learn more on the Sleepy Hollow Golf Course website.
