Elm Creek Golf Course Set to Close

Golfers only have a few more months to tee up on Plymouth’s half-century-old Elm Creek Golf Course, 12 News reported Thursday.  

The Plymouth City Council voted Tuesday to rezone the land so that it could be redeveloped as part of the Creekside Hills Housing Development—a 38-acre project that will have 156 lots for single-family homes, according to the agenda packet for the meeting.  

The homes will cost $600,000 to $1 million, Plymouth Senior City Planner Shawn Drill told 12 News.  

City staff say the rezoning will not set a precedent for other golf courses in the city because Elm Creek was the only one envisioned as a residential area, according to city documents.  

Elm Creek will operate as normal until the last week of August.
