Bear Creek East

The greens were recently punched so they are still recovering. Finished our round in 4 hours and 30 minutes. Nice course layout with some forced carries and blind second shots. The course was very busy, but not as much as the West course. Both are solid courses but the East course is need of some TLC on the tee boxes and bunkers. Will play here again.

As far as the Dallas munis are concerned I think this one is in the best condition. The greens are in superior shape! The rest of the course is in good shape especially with the summer conditions we are getting. No issue with pace of play, got done in under four hours. Will play here again.

The staff at the course is fantastic! The starter gave out some tips before teeing off which was welcomed. Some of the tee boxes are in bad shape as well as some bunkers. The greens had a lot of sand on them as well as some significant dead areas. With that being said it's a nice course layout. Since it was my first time in the course the in cart gps was nice. Due to the current course conditions I don't think the price of the round is worth it.

Wolfdancer is currently making some new holes due to resort expanding our and taking current holes. Will play here again once new holes are completed.

TPC Four Seasons

Former host course of the Byron Nelson. Course is currently in great shape from tee to green. Even in the middle of a Texas summer the greens have no dead spots and roll true. The staff is exceptional, everything you would expect from a TPC course.

Stonebridge Ranch

Stonebridge Ranch Hills Course has 3 9s (Chisholm, Saddleback and Cimmarron) Saddleback being the most forgiving of the nines. The course is in good shape only a few dead spots from the winter freeze. Nothing to ruin a round of golf. The greens are very well maintained and very fast. The Dye Course gets a lot more attention but this course should not be overlooked.

Well worth the drive from DFW! Greens are in fantastic shape as well as the bunkers and tee boxes. An interesting layout that does not punish you for being off line. Several holes border the lake which gives some great views. With the weather getting warmer in Texas it was nice to see the beverage cart 4 times during the round.

The course overall is in good shape. Greens are possibly the best shape I have ever seen them. Almost 5 hours to get a round in on a Monday seems a bit excessive. Not sure if course was overbooked, but there was no marshall on course to keep things moving. The pace of play issue will not stop me from booking here again.

Overall the course is good shape. The greens are in great condition and were very fast when I played. There are a few brown spots in the fairway, but nothing that ruins a round. The starter was very friendly and gave me a few tips since I told him it had been a few years since playing at Woodbridge. The new clubhouse is open and looks great! With multiple beers on tap and a pizza oven its a nice spot for after the round.

Stevens Park

Stevens is the must play among the Dallas munis. An interesting mix of holes that wind through one of the old neighborhoods in Dallas. Its close enough to downtown that you will be able to see the skyline from certain holes. Overall the course is in good shape from tee to green. Be on the lookout for the square greens!

I was not expecting the course to be as challenging as it is. The greens are fairly large, but if you don't hit it in the right spot it will easily roll off. Course is in great shape from tee to green. Its also very easy to walk the course. Forced carries and blind second shots make club selection a bit tricky at times. Overall a good track that is tougher than it looks.

Local Tip: The restroom on the course needs a code to access. Make sure you get code when you check in.

The course overall is in fair shape. The greens are getting better every week as are the tee boxes. There are some dead areas in the fairways, but that can be easily fixed. One suggestion would be to update the carts, most are pretty banged up. No pace of play issues today, will definitely play here again.

WestRidge Golf Course

Greens and bunkers are in great shape. The fairways/ tee boxes and rough of the course is winter dormancy which is typical this time of year. We did not experience slow play but we also tee'd off early in the morning. Not to many course out there with 6 chances for a Hole in One. They have a nice driving range and chipping area as well.

Overall the course is in decent winter shape. The bunkers are in great shape. The greens are fairly slow for the most part. They have upgraded there beverage selection, not just your standard golf course beers. The staff is always friendly and very welcoming.

Overall the course is in good shape. There are a few small dead spots on a few greens from last year's freeze. Some of the bunkers are low on sand, but they are going through a bunker renovation. With all that being said it's still a very enjoyable round of golf. It's a great layout with some forced carries, narrow fairways and undulating greens. Will play here again.

Overall the course is in great shape. The greens are some of the best in the metroplex. The layout has some good variety of holes including some risk/reward holes. The clubhouse is under construction, but there is a currently a bar at the turn. There is a plan to take the course private. With that being said play here as soon as you can!

Lakes Course

Lakes Course at Indian Creek is currently in good shape. The greens were very fast during my round! The layout is pretty straight forward, but make sure you are looking at the GPS for water. Some hazards can not be seen from the tee box. The course was packed with people, but the pace of play was fine. Finished in just over 4 hours. One of the great things about the courses at Indian Creek is that they are very walkable. They also have Finn Scooters if you are so inclined.

Not a word I use often, but the greens are in PRISTINE shape! Currently its some of the nicest greens I have played on in DFW this year. If you have not played here I highly recommend it. Blind tee shots, forced carries and well placed bunkers make this course an enjoyable experience. No issues with pace of play during my round. The staff is extremely friendly, especially the starter (can not remember his name.)

Well worth the drive from the DFW area. This course is a great example of how the wind can drastically alter your game plan. The fairways are pretty open with not a lot of trees to shield the wind. A few holes have some spots under repair, but nothing that ruins the experience of the course. The Bridges' closing hole is one of my favorite in the area. Staff is very friendly and you have to love that range balls are included in your round!

Overall the course is in good shape. It's a good layout with some interesting holes throughout. The greens are in great summer shape. The pace of play was a bit slow for a Monday, took about 4 1/2 hours to get a round in.
