Fort Richardson, Alaska

The Moose Run Golf Facility has two 18-hole, Par 72 courses.  The Hill Course and The Creek Course.  Both courses have numerous majestic views of landscape and wildlife, and are a challenging test of your golfing skills.

The Hill Course:  The original course was built in 1955 as a 9-hole course; additional 9-holes were added to make the existing layout.  The current course is an 18-hole, Par-72 course that measures 6,482 yards from the back tees and has a rating of 69.8 with a slope of 119.  A company of combat engineers built the course and it opened in 1955. 

  While the Hill Course has “postage stamp” size greens, the fairways are wide and forgiving to make a round of golf a challenging affair.  The wooded course has spruce and birch tree lining all the fairways.  The front 9 holes are hilly, while the back 9 holes are somewhat flat.  The water hazards come into play on a few holes and will promise a memorable golf experience for both the novice and the experienced golfer alike.

The Creek Course:   This 18-hole, Par 72 course measures 7,324 yards from the back tees with a course rating of 78.0 and a slope of 142.  The course was designed by Robin Nelson and opened in 2000.  Mr. Nelson has the ability to build a golf course that is sensitive to the topography of the land, preserves the character of the land and makes the game of golf fun.

The Creek Course is one of the most challenging golf course in the state and perhaps the most challenging that most golfers have ever played.  This is the longest golf course in Alaska and it has the longest single hole, the #11 hole, Par 5 at 649 yards.  Two of the holes, #6 and #11, play through reclaimed gravel pits and are known for their breathtaking scenic views, some of the best in Alaska.

Both golf courses are open to the public.
