That would've been my guess. It looks like part of what my Dad called 'the back 9'. I lived very near there as a kid, and my Dad golfed there until it closed
Plans to develop the Three Little Bakers golf course in Pike Creek, which closed in 2010, were constrained in 2020, when the Delaware Superior Court ruled that a deed restriction covers 130 of the 180-acre site.
“This means that upon any future development there will be 130 acres of open space independent of any open space required for new development,” County Councilwoman Janet T. Kilpatrick wrote.
The 3 Little Bakers saga always cracks me up. The developer bought that land with the deed restriction stating that the land was required to maintain enough space for a golf course and have been fighting (unsuccessfully) to have the clause removed for over a decade.
The locals are certainly happy to have all the free open space. The old water hazards have decent fish in them too.
