IMPROVE YOUR GAME WITH THE CHECHESSEE CREEK CLUB PERFORMANCE CENTER
We are excited to announce the opening of the Chechessee Creek Club Performance Center, a premier facility designed to enhance your golfing experience and provide exceptional learning and event spaces. The Performance Center offers a range of services, from golf instruction to private event bookings, all within a beautiful, state-of-the-art environment.
The center features a innovative practice bay, equipped with a 30-foot retractable door for seamless access to outdoor hitting. Central to this space is the TrackMan simulator, allowing for precision practice and engaging gameplay, providing you with invaluable data to refine your skills. Additionally, our instruction bay will be dedicated to personalized coaching from our expert instructor. Here, you will benefit from advanced tools such as TrackMan, GASP force plates, and Gears 3D motion capture technology. This comprehensive approach ensures that you receive tailored instruction focused on enhancing your performance.
In addition to the opening of the Performance Center, we are pleased to announce that the driving range tee and short game greens are now accessible for use at the back of the driving range. This arrangement allows for increased flexibility in practice areas, with the front of the driving range designated for warm-up activities only.

The Chechessee Creek Club Performance Center is designed to help golfers at all skill levels improve their game. The center is outfitted with advanced technology and serves as a venue for practice, socializing, and physical fitness within the club. The center features:
