Disappointed

I've heard and read so much about this course over the years and never got that far north to play it. I finally got the chance and was disappointed. The back 9 was closed for bridge repairs.

Great course

Love playing this course as it is well maintained and is always in good shape. The reason being it's in a secured neighborhood and is a country club. It's great that the course is open to the public so we get to play these courses without having to pay the fees of being a member. Occasionally as happened on Monday a group of members jumped on the course at #10 so when we made the turn we had 2 new groups ahead of us. All seniors, so it was very slow moving the entire back 9 having to wait at every hole. This made playing time about an hour longer than it should have. We were a 4 some playing 3 different tees and still has to wait. Other than that and the wind it was a great day. Course was in great condition. Next time just wish they would put the members off on #1 instead of #10

First Time

Got a good deal on golf now and paid $20
The course has a very nice layout. It's challenging from the blues. The pace was heart as I teed if around 12:30 on a Friday and they're was no one in front of me, that is until the 8th hole. I ran into a 4some. I was a single and figured they would let me pass them at the turn like most courtesy golfers would do. Nope I had to wait to hit every shot on the back nine. There was no Marshall on the course at all. I had another single playing behind me because he wanted to play alone after I offered him to join me. I saw him playing multiple shots arrive the greens and bunker practice just to kill time while waiting. I just wish their will have been a Marshall on the course to hurt them along or let them allow me to play thru. Go play this course, you will enjoy it.

Needs work

Course has a nice layout, it plays medium difficult. I know it's winter but greens are in really bad shape. The tee boxes are uneven and were all pretty much sand, hardly any grass. If there was grass, like I said it was uneven and had to move around to get yourself setup correctly with the ball. There are other parts of the course that could use some repairs such as cart paths. The staff was very friendly and the pace of play was great today. Teed off at 12:10 and played 18 in 3 1/2 for a twosome.

First time playing here

I enjoyed playing this course. I got paired up with a group of older guys and a walker, so it was a little slower than i normally play but it was still decent pace because the course was fairly empty. it was 44 degrees and windy. The layout was pretty good, lots of doglegs. the course was in good condition for winter. the greens were in good shape. very fast. there were a few challenging holes. i will play here again if i get a good deal. i payed $28 and i think that was a good value for this course.

Could be better

The course has nice elevation changes and gives it a different feel than other courses around the metroplex. It plays short and fairly easy. The bad thing is the course management is horrible. The do not take care of the course. you can drive carts right up next to the green as i saw some people doing. the greens are patchy. I played this course several times about 15 years ago and it was in great shape. I dont know if its the same owners but its like they care about improving the course. the cart path is missing in some areas and you end up driving on gravel. you have to watch out for bumps and drop offs. If they put some money and more care into the course it could be good again,

Course gone to the pits

This course was a prime course 15 years ago. This is was the first time I have played it in about that long. The clubhouse and parking lot are ran down. The course is in terrible shape overall. Someone told me that the course has been purchased by the city of Plano and its obvious that they don"t have plans to renovate or keep it up. Its a shame because its in a great location.

Good course but...

I like playing this course , its always been in great condition and they are working on improving the bunkers. they have the front 9 done but the back are like hard pan concrete.My only real complaint is the pace of play. It is extremely slow. They start groups about every 8 minutes and should be moved to every 10. They also let groups of 5 play instead of limiting it to 4. This slows down everything. They will also start groups off of #10 later in the day and that's just wrong because people coming off the front 9 get caught behind them and don't get time to finish their round before dark. If they had a marshal driving the course and speeding play up that would help. I've played here about 8 times and haven't ever seen one.

Great course

First time playing this course and I booked it after reading the reviews. I wasn't disappointed. The course was is great condition. The greens are very fast and the course plays long and is pretty challenging. I will play here again if i can get another hot deal on Golf now.

used to be good

I started playing this course in the 90's and the course was always in great shape. I moved and stopped playing for about 13 years. I recently got back into the game and play once a week sometimes 2. This course has a great layout and is fun to play but the management of the course is horrible. Tee boxes are hard as a rock and need to be watered and fertilized. The sand traps are rock hard. like concrete. literally no sand in them. several have been under repair for months. Whats more frustrating is that they have sand in a pit next to the 17th green. Both the Lakes course and the Bridges have great bunkers with plenty of sand in them. This needs to be taken care of by management.

Slow play

I had a 12:53 pm tee time and was set up as a single. i am there early so i see about playing ahead of a 4 some. I get to the first tee at 12:30pm and there is a group of 27 guys. An elder gentleman says that this is a weekly game and that i might want to skip past there group and then return to play that hole. Turns out i had to go to hole 4 before i was able to tee off. I caught a 3 some on the par 3 5th. they had already hit so they waved me thru. i was on in one and got par and teed off the next whole. i had two holes that i was able to play thru alone. I then ran into a back to back groups of 4 somes of women that apparently had went off on a shotgun; so until 12 was it was brutal. i had to go back and play the first 3 holes after my round

Good course but issues

Good course, slow play, no Marshall, groups of 5
If they spread tee times our further than 8 minutes apart, play would improve. They have no Marshall to speed play up. The send groups of 5 out in front of a 1sone or 2 some. There is no reason to have groups of 5 that got more than 1 shot on every home. It's disrespectful to the other players. It's going to take at least 4.5 hours to play. If you tee off after 1pm you may not get 18 in during daylight savings
