Thorntree is a hidden gem located in DeSoto. It's an old school country club that is available to the public. I've played there several times, and have always enjoyed it. It starts off with an easy down hill par 4, and then a short par 3 that is more difficult than it appears thanks to a multi-tier green. From there, the course gets more difficult, and you'll want to come back again and again to try and tame it. Greens are relatively new hybrid bermuda, fast and true. Bunkers are in pretty good shape, better than most course s in DFW. Very interesting layout overall.

Greens are dead, had to play on temporary greens, which was not disclosed on Golfnow. Overall, the course is in bad shape. Won't ever play here again.

Our tee time was 12:44pm, eventually teed off 1pm. Finished 6 holes in 2 hours. Pace eventually picked up. Finished at 5:50pm. Food was good. No cart girl. Nice course layout, in decent shape.
