In 1855, logger William Morgan and his wife Margaret Anne, a nurse and midwife, were one of the 1st young couples to homestead the land that we know today as the Morgan Creek Golf Course. For 40 years, William farmed the land while his wife travelled the rutted trails in horse and buggy delivering babies and tending to the health of neighbours.

      During the Roaring ’20s, William added adventure to his already enterprising life by playing a part in Surrey’s role as a liquor supply base for Americans during the Prohibition era. His two sons, however, would raise families of their own and for many years farm the land alongside the creek which today bears the Morgan name.

      The woods were abundant with wildlife indigenous to the Pacific Northwest … deer, fox, and raccoon … blue heron and mallard duck whose calls mingled with the songs of the many creek side frogs. It was pastoral living in a simpler time.

         Today, that pastoral setting has been maintained in the 165 acres of rolling golf course and natural habitation areas that abound with wildlife and if, during your game, you pause along the creek, you’ll still hear the sounds of nature. And on a quiet summer evening, listen very closely. You just might hear the hoofbeats as Margaret Anne’s horse and buggy return home at the end of the day
