Another good golf course screwed by Arcis

Sadly all they care is about money, they don't invest any money on the golf course. They don't even have a starter so people do whatever they want. You have 4somes that split into 2somes every time. Instead of having people group together you always have delays and have to wait on every hole. You could have 2 groups of 4, but then you find 4 groups of 2. They need to fix the bunkers, and do something about all the weeds all over the place. Is a nice course but poorly managed.

Greens are dead.

I never thought I will post something like this about Frisco lakes. I don't know what happened, this course used to have one of the best greens around, but know the greens are dead, they have a lot of sand, something not uncommon around this time of the year but they have no grass, 50 % of the greens have no grass. You will think the course is going to be in great shape because not a lot of people was playing but is the total opposite.

Another issue is they don't tell you you have to walk, because they only give you one cart per twosome. The other courses in Denton county, give you a cart per golfer, but they don't do it and they don't tell you in advance so you can come prepared.

Really disappointing, it's a shame.

Fast winter greens, good condition, awful pace of play.

I like this course, is a fun course. Right now greens are fast, but in great condition, some bumps here and there but mostly people dragging their feet walking on the green. Course is in good shape even for winter. The big problem is pace of play, this course is the slowest course around this area, no marshal so everyone does whatever they want. You have a foursome, in one hole and then waiting on the tee box, 3 twosomes and a single, but they don't get together to play as two groups, they all play in different groups so instead of 2 groups, you have to wait for 4 different groups to play. That's when you need a marshal to put order, and improve the pace of play something nobody there is interested on doing. So between no authority and all the divas playing by themselves so they can play as many balls as they want rounds take forever. Not the first time and it won't be the last, for this reason our group is not going back there. Pro shop staff is always nice and friendly.

Bad greens, nice course awful greens.

Excellent driving range, chipping areas, great restaurant, good food, good deals, people is always nice. Great golf carts with GPS, and bluetooth speakers.

Is a fun course with the 6-6-6 holes but they always struggle with the most important part of the course, the greens!!!.

The greens on the back nine are Ok, average, decent, some patches here and there but nothing bad.

Greens on the front nine are in bad shape, 1, 3, 4, 6, 8 are just sand, they put sand and paint to make it look decent, but is just sand. Is a winter green but they usually have dormant grass, this one is 40 % grass, 60 % sand, number 3 and 8 are the worst. Just sand in the middle. They can put a bunker in the middle of the green and problem solved, just like Riviera.

Bad greens, extremely slow, pace of play 5:30

This course always have the greens in good shape, in the last month and half the greens have been really slow, they are long, and is almost like the fairway. You have to hammer the ball, they had some kind of mens league but they don't have a marshall and they don't want to tell them to play fast because they don't want to offend them so you will play for more than 5 hours.

Bad greens, they lost the front 9

I like this course, is a fun course, my only issue is always the pace of play, I got used to that because I like the driving range, and the deals with food are always good.

They are having the same problem they had last year, The greens on the front 9 are dying. Whoever posted "the greens were beautiful" probably works for the golf course because it not even close to reality. I hope they can fix the greens quick, is a shame this course has those issues.

Great course, excellent greens.

Course is in great condition, even for winter, best part is the greens, roll true, and they are usually fast. Course makes you think every shot, there always some challenge in front of you. Best course around, great staff, kitchen was closed when I played.
If they put some love in the kitchen is a 5 star course.

Greedy management

Course was wet because of the rain the day before. I wasn't expecting great conditions, but I wanted to play. By the time we were on the 8th hole, a thunderstorm was coming, a lot of lightning and getting close to us, no worth the risk of playing. We went to the pro shop, asked for a raincheck for the back nine, and I was told by the guy of the pro shop that all he could give me was $2.00 back. I said I don't want money, just a raincheck to play the back nine some other day, and he said he couldn't do it because corporate wouldn't let him do it. I asked way and he said because that was the rate of 9 holes , I said I didn't pay a 9 hole rate, just give me a raincheck for the other 9 holes, he said he could, so I guess for corporate is better if you get killed by a lightning in the middle of the golf course than giving you a raincheck.

Arcis management, I guess that's how you make money, I won't be back there.

Also a lot of beginners playing, and that's okay, but you need a marshal to explain them some of the golf etiquette, and keep the pace moving. That's something you never see there.

fairways decent, greens were good, tee boxes were awful.

I'm glad I went back.

After a really bad experience with the guy from the pro shop, I went back because my friend wanted to play that course.
I've been there 2 times after that, first time it was the same rude person, but he was really nice and it was like talking to another person.
Second time I went back it was another guy, really nice and helpfull.

Greens were fast, and the fairways were in great condition, is always windy over there, is worth the drive.

illegal holes location 2 days in a row

I love this course, is always in great shape, but I was disappointed last week. I played 2 days in a row, and different pin placement every day, but 3 holes were on a slope on the first day, and 2 on the second day. I know they want make the hole challenging and there's nothing wrong with that, but is not when you put the hole right on the slope.
Basic rules of golf.
I hope the groundskeeper can reads this.

Rule 16.3
An area two to three feet in radius around the hole should be as nearly level as possible and of uniform grade. In no case should holes be located in tricky places, or on sharp slopes where a ball can gather speed. A player above the hole should be able to stop the ball at the hole.

Awful rude staff, won't go back

I like the course, especially the greens. Is not busy most of the time, so you can play a quick round.

Booked our tee time with a hot deal on golfnow, we arrived early, and we had 1 hour and 15 min to hit some balls on the range and putt.

Walked inside the pro shop, and the guy sitting in the computer didn't even say hello, welcome or something, so I walked in front of the desk and he said, yes??, I don't know what kind of greeting is that, but I said we have a tee time, and I want to hit some balls, and he just said range is closed, so I said, can we tee off early so we don't wait for another hour and he said No!, I asked why not and he said it was because I bought a hot deal and I got a better rate, and I was cheating the golf course. I said, how am I supposed to now who gets the money, I'm just looking for the best deal, you only have probably 12 cars in your parking lot and there is nobody here, don't you have some spots so we can start early?, and the guy said, yes plenty of spots, next players won't tee off for another 40 min, and I don't care if I don't have anyone here, you are not going to start playing until your time.

He could said the same thing in a 1000 different ways, why do you have to treat customers like that, specally when the golf course is almost empty and when you have to drive a long way to get there. I don't get it.

Won't be back, and it's a nice course but the rates are high and plenty of courses around with nice people.

Hi “u000001338298” If you will see from the response above are staff was only doing their job and could not allow this group to tee off a TWO hours before their original tee time. He should have booked his tee time in the 11:00 am hour if that is the time he was planning on playing. We hope that you will understand that there are two sides to every story and we hope that you will give us a try.

Hi “u000007717806”

We apologize about your recent experience at the course today. The Tee time notes should have stated that the range would be closed on this particular day, and we apologize that it was not noted by GolfNow in the tee time notes. After reviewing this review we spoke with the gentlemen that checked you in on Thursday January 19th. You had a 1:00 PM GolfNow Trade time where 100% of the tee time goes to GolfNow, which is stated in the tee time notes. Being like many of the golf courses in the area rates change from morning to afternoon, with the morning rates obviously being more expensive. After getting both sides of the story we were told that you became argumentative with the gentleman behind the counter after he told you that you got a better rate. GolfNow has two Hot Deal times at our course which are 11:48 am and 1:00 pm. He could not allow you tee off TWO hours earlier than your 1:00 PM scheduled tee time (which is earlier than our first hot deal time with GolfNow). We even called GolfNow and confirmed that you cancelled your tee time 1 hour and 41 minutes prior to your original time and recieved a full refund. Having you tee off at 11:00 am would result in you paying a higher rate, as the gentlemen stated. We hope that you will understand that most of your inconvenience was due the difference in price from morning and afternoon rates, and that the gentleman behind the counter was only doing his job. If you would like to talk about this situation in more detail I urge you to give us a call so that we can discuss it further. Thanks Josh Haynes MGT

Thought I might play this course tomorrow, but if they haven't fired that guy, they won't be getting my money.

Good course, awful pace of play

Nice course. Fast greens a little hard but they roll excellent, in general course was in good shape. The only problem is the pace of play.

All the staff was great, the starter was a nice lady really enthusiastic, really nice.

I only saw one marshall one time, and we waited every hole. We started at 1:12 pm, and could't finish because it was dark, couldn't play 17 and 18 . By the time we reached 17 we it was 5:45 pm, 4 hours and 30 min, we 2 more holes to go. I don't know if the tee times are too close together or the marshalls don't do anything to keep the pace, but 5 hour round is not worth it.

Fun course, course was in great condition.

Greens, fairway, bunkers everything was perfect. They put a lot of effort keeping that course in shape, and you can see it.

The course was packed!.

The starter had 4 groups waiting on the first hole, a lot of seniors playing, foursome after foursome. Me and my friend were just waiting to tee off, and they sent us as a twosome, right on time. All I was thinking was, 5 hour round, be patient.

After we finished I checked my phone and it only took us 3 hours and 40 min to finish, all the people playing was really friendly, some of them let us play, but every time we jump one group there was another waiting, so we didn't even try to jump more groups, at the end it was a great round. We are definitely going back.

Short but difficult.

Everything was in great shape, specially the greens. This golf course is between houses, and water, a lot of water.

Nice course ifor you can keep the ball in the middle, if you go left or right you have trees in your way. If you are not accurate around the greens you're going to be penalized. Most of the greens are surrounded by water.

Pace of play was awesome.

Great golf course, one problem

I love this golf course. Always in great shape, fast greens, perfect bunkers.

They always have good deals.

Driving range is the best around. You can always hit from grass. Only one day is on mats.

Food is awesome. Cheeseburger is delicious.

The only problem is slow play, I don't know if they put the tee times too close toguether or what's the probelm, but is not fun to play the front nine in 2 hours 13 min (acceptable), and the back nine in 2 hours 53 minutes.

They have to do something because players won't come back. There was one marshal in the back 9 trying to help but there was not a single gap between groups.

Nice golf course.

Fairways are in great shape, greens are in good shape. I like this golf course, is challenging, and if you mishit you are taking a penalty for sure. I think the only thing they need to improve is the sand traps, is not bad, but could be better.
