Twin Lakes Golf Course closing
Twin Lakes Tree Farm received significant damage during the April 29 tornadoes.
Twin Lakes Golf Course in Canton will close its fairways for good July 31, 2017. The public golf course hosted about 25,000 rounds of golf a year and was home to many golfers.
“That is why it was so hard to make the decision to close. It was a home for so many, not just the select few that can afford memberships. We had people traveling from many states and even a few other countries to come play on the course,” said TLGC event coordinator Carri Dekkers. “The course was built with you in mind, and for the last 18 years, you have helped create memories that will last a lifetime. We would like to say thank you for the memories. “
TLGC was built in Canton on a wooded and pasture area that was converted into a golf course. The tree farm that abuts the property was started in 1990 and was original called AM&D Tree Farm after the Dekkers’ three children and then was changed to Twin Lakes Nursery after the course was built,” said Dekkers.
Recently, the course was named one of the Top Five golf courses in Texas and Top 25 for friendliest staff.
