Two Distinctly Different Golf Courses
The Hill Course and the Creek Course at Moose Run make-up the World's Northernmost 36-hole golf course. Weoffer a fun and friendly atmosphere for all types of golfers. Moose Run Golf Course is also one of the state’s best places to practice and to learn the game.
The Hill Course is aptly named because of the gently rolling hills that make up the front nine. The Hill Course’s layout is easily walkable and offers a perfect introduction to golf for beginning golfers and juniors, while still delivering a challenge to the seasoned player.
The Creek Course is so named because of Ship Creek that meanders through and alongside some of the holes. Being tucked in at the base of the Chugach Mountains, both courses have some of the most beautiful views of this mountain range. A game of golf at either of these courses is often like a trip to a wildlife sanctuary.
Golfers may see both brown and black bear, fox, wolf, lynx, bald eagle and, of course, moose. Photo opportunities abound and many golfers are seen with their cameras at the ready.While Moose Run Golf Course is a military course it is open to the civilian community and the many tourists that come here each year.
