Ehhh

Cart attendance must have messed around as the sign for hole location to hole 1 or 10 was switched around, Direct to 1 says to go to 10 and vice versa. There were multiple tee boxes closed and under construction. No garbage cans or receptacle around tee boxes. There were no toilet paper in the club house or halfway house or anywhere on the course. Course condition is poor (due to excessive rain). Good layout and has its challenges. Staff was nice/friendly. Will give it awhile as it has an opportunity become an excellent course, but for now not worth the price (yet).

Course Review

The winter storm did a lot of damage to the course. Still plenty of bare spots in the fairway and around the green. A number of tee-boxes are currently under repair. Some of the greens have also been damaged.
Played this past Sunday (6/6) and it was a five hour plus round, Having a five some two groups ahead of us sure didn't help. 3.5 out of 5.

Fun course great people

I was in town for a wedding and was able to get out to Buffalo Creek. The staff greeted me right away and gave me the option to get out earlier. The conditions were fantastic and the course presented a great challenge. Had some great merchandise as well ended up getting a new hat and polo. Also had a great chicken sandwich I was able to enjoy after the round. Great work all around

Making progress

The course was under maintenance on most holes either tee box or bunkers. It appears they are doing a good job starting fresh with most tee boxes instead of trying to patch them up. It it made for a lot of short iron and wedge approaches. I still enjoyed the layout despite playing forward on a number of holes. Fairways were in good shape and greens rolled nice. Staff was friendly and beverage cart came around 4 times during the round. Pace was decent considering playing on a holiday weekend. Once they get the rest of the sand down, and some turf on the tees this will be one of the best courses in the metroplex.

New owners & Management company are awesome

The course is in amazing shape since the last time I played which was prior to the new owners. They are making some serious strides at putting this course back the the condition it deserves. Given the hard winter we had, there were a few dead tee boxes which is to be expected but absolutely nothing ruined this round.

Play here!

This was my first time playing this course. It was perfect weather. The fairways were
dormant so the ball rolled quite a bit. The greens were fast but not difficult to read. I highly recommend playing this course.
