Better than expected

Was in town for work and finally able to play this course. I was blown away with both the views and the architecture of the course. Course is pretty open and overly long but the greens were some of the fastest and tougher I have played. I would play it over Torrey Pines anyday of the week…

Unique course

First time playing and with no gps a real challenge. We had no idea what to do off half the tee. I would play again if back in La Paz but we were expecting a better layout.

Elevation changes and views smoke anything in Scottsdale

Conditions were great for overseesding being recent. I would definitely recommend playing up a box for the next month due to fairways being super soft and so many uphill approaches. Tough to score when you hit your drive well and are consistently hitting hybrid-5 irons into average par 4’s haha. Greens were running out all day and seemed to be at peak season speed.

Great conditions

Made the 1.5 hour drive the East valley. Worth the drive to play once a year especially if you can get a decent rate. Conditions were very good...greens held everything but were fast and very tricky. The ongoing housing development takes away from the scenery.. Ugly manufactured homes throughout the course . They must be cheap because I am not sure why anyone would seek out this destination to live. Understaffed in the bar and restaurant. Came for the course and it is well worth it! Lots of blind shots that made it tricky when playing the first time.

Great conditions

Tee’d off around 1130 and played in 2.5 hours as a single....did not catch up to anyone until hole 16. Not the most difficult course even though I hit a few tee shots out of bounds. All were poor shots and not due to lack of familiarity as the in-cart GPS made getting around the foreign course Pretty straightforward. Greens were perfect . $38 bucks as a AZ resident was a heck of deal. Overall fun course!

17 and 18 on the Old Course make it worth it.

Service was not good. Parking situation was confusing and they seemed under staffed. Greens had recently been punched. View on 18 is just as good as anything I have played and left me feeling better about the place. Not overly tough. Front 9 on the OC is pretty wide open. No cart service all day and bathrooms on the course were disgusting for a $200 course.

Fast greens....especially for being so close to the ocean

Greens were much faster then Pebble, Bandon, or Torrey when compared to other courses so close to the ocean...I hit my driver as well as ever but still shot a 94 as a 12 handicap from the blue tees. Missed a tone of greens and paid the price as chips and long lag puts ran out all day. Greens are fast and tricky but true. Great value for being in the middle of the “‘Mecca” for American golf.

Tough course....place seems to have seen better days

Short but tough....small greens with a lot odulation...on top of that the greens were rock hard . Tee boxes and bunkers were in poor shape. Challenging and Intresting course just wish it was kept up better.

Great Muni ! Hopefully the course conditions can be kept up

I guess today was the official grand opening even though it has been open for a couple weeks. Was blown away. Very interesting course with a lot of orginal holes you don't typically see. Lots of room off the tees but if you miss the green on your approach you will be challenged. Greens were in great condition but were hard and not holding lob wedges...maybe because they are new? Views of the skyline are special especially when you realize you are paying $30-45. As a downtown resident I pumped to have this course here. I just hope they can keep the conditions up and it's not Pecan Valley in a year.

Disgraceful

Was not expecting much, but the worst conditions I have ever played. Every green was bad and May is typically peak condition. I have seen cow pastures nicer than the fairways. Club house looked like it had not been vacuumed in 5 years. Paid 33 bucks on a Saturday morning so I should have known better.

Blown away

Best public course I have played in DFW for the price. Fun course and in great shape. Kicking myself it was the first time. Not the hardest course but a lot of fun . Greens were in great shape. Just as good as Texas Star or Fossil Creek and cheaper.

Great afternoon twighlight rates

Nice course and typically pretty open during the week. Euless is very much a working class community which is probably why it's easy to get on during the week for cheap. Challenging course with many holes where a 10 handicap will gladly take bogey which makes you you press on the easier holes.

moorepete,

Thank you for playing Hawks Creek and recommending us to others! We really take pride in our greens outward approach as they are clearly the most important part of the golf course. Stay tuned for bunker news and we can't wait for you to come back and see us again.

Sincerely,

Hawks Creek Management
