Spectacular course!

I love mountain courses, and I love lake courses, and this course is the best of both. Every hole is beautiful, the surroundings are beautiful, the fairways and greens are perfect. If you can play here, you really should. Just one of the most enjoyable rounds I’ve had in years.

Very enjoyable!

This is a well maintained, challenging, interesting mountain course, priced very fairly for the value. A short drive from Winston Salem, and well worth the trip. Fairways and greens were in excellent shape, lots of great holes. Highly recommended!

Needs investment

This is a unique, interesting course that has seen better days. It cries out for new ownership or at least new management. The cart paths are wrecked, the sand traps are an embarrassment, and the greens are a mess. This place needs five or six million dollars invested in it to be the course it should be, and I’m surprised that the owners of the many multi million dollar homes surrounding the course aren’t demanding it. In the shape it’s in now, it’s depressing the value of their properties.

nice local option

This 27 hole local gem is definitely worth putting into your rotation, if you haven't already. Three distinct, well designed 9's, with plenty of water yet not unfair, and a friendly pro shop crew. The great local BBQ in the clubhouse is worth the trip all by itself. Highly recommended!

Very pleasant afternoon!

First time on the Old Course. Loved it. A little quirky, with some parallel fairways that require you to pay close attention to other players, but otherwise an enjoyable, playable course, with remarkably good fairways and greens (some of the tee boxes are a bit rough, but it wasn’t a huge issue). Friendly staff, too! Great value. Will absolutely be back soon.

Among my least favorite courses in DFW

I rarely play Riverside, and every time I do, remember why. It's one of the slowest courses in the whole Metroplex, and has a disinterested staff that just couldn't care less. The course layout and conditions are about average, nothing special or interesting, but the freeway location attracts big crowds, including lots of hackers, and I've never seen a marshall on the course. Five hour rounds are normal here, often after waiting for a cart. There are just far too many better options..don't waste your time at Riverside.

Greens need some time to smooth out.

Mansfield is, in my opinion, one of the better options on the south side of the Metroplex, with several interesting holes and generally good course conditions. Slow play is a problem here, as it is on far too many courses, and the greens are currently recovering from aeration, which left them bumpy and inconsistent. I would wait at least another ten days before playing here.

Duck Creek Golf Course

Still in pretty rough shape

The staff is very friendly, and you can see that they're trying to upgrade this course, but it still has a long way to go. Fairways are growing in, greens aren't bad, but the general conditions (tee boxes, signage, short rough) are pretty shabby, especially for the price. Any of the Dallas muni's are a MUCH better deal than Duck Creek. I won't go back, and would not recommend it to anybody, at least not until they clean it up.
