Sweet Layout, but Windy (out of management's control)

Excellent course, and value. Greens are a little grainy, but excellent for mid-November.

Excellent Greens

First time I've played this course in 15 years. I'm asking myself my did I wait so long to return. Greens are the toughest I've played this year. They are extremely tough, fast, but true. I would highly suggest getting there early and putting on the practice green, The speed of the practice green is very close to the course speed.

Due to the greens, and cup locations, be prepared to shot 5-10 more strokes than normal. It was a funny fun round, getting my butt kicked on the greens.

One of Fort Worths Classics

After learning how to play on this course 30 years ago, I recently visited after 20 years. This FW classic is often overlooked, and a true value (<$35 before 4pm, <$15 after). Earlier reviews gave the greens harsh remarks, after playing the past two weeks, they have rebounded and are on good shape. Due to covid-19, and not being able to get off at my regular course, I decided to give it try. I'm happy to report I've played 4 times here in the past two weeks. You could go spend 2X the money elsewhere, but this course is an exceptional value. Onsite personnel couldn't be more friendly, and supportive. Do yourselves (and your wallet) a favor and give it a try. Just please dont tell to many of your friends, (I'm enjoying the 3 hour rounds).

Save your $$$, and time

I returned to Sugartre for the first time in 20 years. At the age of 50, most likely the last time I will ever make the drive out there. The course conditions are terrible, with the exception of the greens (they are a little above average), All bunkers are filled in with sod, one fairway looks like a minefield, The tee boxes are in terrible shape, as they appear to have been in the same position for the past two months.

The Good, the Bad, and the COVID.

The Good: This was the first time in 10 years that I had returned to play Hawks Creek. (Trying to figure out what took so long). The course layout is a hidden gem. Conditions were great w/ exception of below.

The Bad: Due to city restrictions, no pins were installed on the greens (holes are there somewhere, (still looking), no carts (which is actually a great thing. This course is a gem to walk).

The Ugly" Covid. Once over, this course will be on my routinely visited list.

Bring your cart, and enjoy this awesome course!

Grounds Crew Needs A Raise!

I've been playing here for 20 years. Last week for the first time this year. Understanding it was labor day, and over 100 degrees I gave come to the conclusion I must lower my expectations on course conditions. I have played 30+ rounds this year, and this course at the beginning of September was one of the top 3 well conditioned courses I've played.

Thank you employees of Fossil Creek for exceeding my expectations, and contributing to the growth of golf through your commitment to excellence.

Go play this course!

Course Has Been Watered, BUT YOU WILL NOT BE! (BYOW- Bring your own water)

The Good: Sunday afternoon, fast playing, conditions nice for mid August.
The Bad: There are 4 5 gallon water stations on the course. Not one had water . Yes, this is a haha moment for some, but in Texas, in August, the temperature was 100+.
The Ugly: At the turn we mentioned to the beverage lady at the bar, the water stations were empty. At the conclusion of the round I spoke to the clubhouse personnel. He made the excuse that patrons were filling up their own cups, and would empty shortly after filling. When I questioned the frequency they were checked, he stated no one should need more than 6oz per 9. This is such ludicrous logic, its evident this course's management doesn't care after the green fee is paid. Do yourself a favor bring your own water, and take a chance bring any adult beverage you would like, as the weather may be so hot the beverage cart attendant will leave due to the weather. Very disappointing for a "up scale" public course.

A Classic That Is Often Overlooked

Played yesterday, and was reminded of what a awesome layout this course is. The conditions are great, pace was excellent. Well worth the discounted fee. Will most definitely be back, ( much sooner than the last visit). Go check one of their two courses out!

HOT DEAL?? (SAVE YOUR MONEY) DON'T DO IT!

Upon arriving and checking in, I was informed the front nine was closed due to flooding, and I could play the back nine twice. It would have been nice to have been informed prior to driving 45 minutes. Though I had a tee time, I was instructed to head to the first tee when I was ready to start. I promptly head to the first tee, to find 8 golf carts in line. Lucky we, I had the honor of playing with another gentleman (2-some), and we played behind a 5-some for the next 2.5 hours. The starter had informed they would be allowed to play on a Sunday, because they anticipated it would be slow out there. For the LOVE of golf, the course was packed 2-3 groups on every hole, and I had the honor to play behind a 5 some.

Needless to say, I quit after 9 holes. In short my HOT DEAL, did make me hot. And as for Riverchase management, if you expect /or care be appreciative of your patrons, please respect and appreciate to spend their day off at your course. And lastly please invest in some caret path repair, or provide each golf with a back brace.

In closing to those golfer interested in a RIVERCHASE HOT DEAL, call before you purchase, ask what holes are open, are you allowing 5-somes today?

Getting off my soap box, and going to play another course, not located in Coppell.

First Time, and Not the Last

Visiting from Dallas, and have played many courses in the hOuston area., this course has a awesome layout, with challenging greens, makes this a must play.

Regardless of skill level, a good time is to be had. Our first round we played the blue tees, and tips the second round. Both rounds were very enjoyable, I will be back.

Nice track

Very nice course, especially for fall conditions. Nice club house.

I do have two suggestions: I wish they had a weekday cart girl on the course. And no access to the south course restrooms, as doors are locked. This can (and was) a inconvenience, as this accounted for a few missed shots. Please consider granting access for those patrons playing on the backside of the property.

Excellent Conditions (play your shots short)

The course was in great shape. The green are extremely fast, and roll true. You won't need your divot repair tool, as the new green will not stick. All shots have to be played short, as even your 60 degree wedge will release 5-10 feet. And on these greens it could result in a one put turning into a three or four putt.

Windy, Pace-Behind a League

This course could use some updating. If you have played more than 4 rounds of golf in your life, try another course. No elevated greens or tees. Would be a great course for a beginner on a week day. I played on a Sunday afternoon, behind a league and played the longest round of my life. FIVE hours and 20 minutes.

The course would be a nice track if a little money was put into it. The course looks the same as it did 25 years ago.

The Best Kept Secret

Im reluctant to give my honest opinion, in fear that this gem will soon be harder to play. This is by far the best kept secret golf course in D/FW. The greens are awesone, very fast, and true. Do yiurself a huge favor and visit. Some say the course is very challenging, but with 4 tees to choose from, all can enjoy. Bring your duvot repair tool, as these green will hold shots and everyone's participation in maintaining is evident. Take a little drive further out of the metroplex, and enjoy the awesone course, you will not be dissapointed.
