Built in the country but not a country course

This is a fun, challenging track built out in the countryside of North Texas. The greens were in really good condition for coming out of the winter season, rolling really well and doing what you would expect. Fairways were in decent shape but definitely need some good warm days to really come back to life. Tee boxes were very poor with many of them needing to be resodded or reseeded. There are 5 teeboxes, forward, white, blue, gold, and black. Good putting greens and driving range to warm up with. No GPS on carts, bring a rangefinder!

Fun course layout

This course isn't the longest layout but still provides a challenge with strategic layout, water, some big, old trees, and smaller green complexes. The bunkers are in terrible shape and should just be removed, for now just take a drop and play on. The greens are getting some TLC but are slow and bumpy right now. Basic clubhouse with snacks and some beverages. Nice staff, very friendly. Decent little grass range, putting green and short game area.

Have to fix the greens

There was a time that playing this course was fun. However, until they commit to fixing the greens it makes for a less than desirable experience.

Please repair the greens!

This course would be great, if they would just fix the greens. They roll pretty good. They break as they should. The speed is usually nice, but the amount of weeds and bad spots is getting ridiculous.

Enjoyable

I have tried to play this course twice now and been run off by Thunderstorms each time. But I have now played both the front and back nines and I enjoy playing this track. It has enough length and layout challenges to provide a challenge to lower handicap players. The greens were in good condition but I would have loved for them to play much faster. I didn't play out of any bunkers but they looked to be in a playable state.

Burned out

This course is suffering from lack of rain and water restrictions. All of the fairways are burned out and it's like hitting off concrete. Most tee boxes are in decent shape but some are starting to get torn up with lack of water. The greens are about the only place they are watering so they are performing pretty well. They could be a bit faster but then they might start to lose them in the heat. It a fun short layout with twist and turns all over the course. Learn to hit golf shots and use the on cart GPS if you have never played there before.

Worth the drive

First time playing a course that has been recommended to me by many. A fun layout utilizing the terrain and challenging most skill levels. The greens weren't in the best shape due to prior maintenance but should be better soon. GPS on the carts was fairly accurate on most holes, the green book wasn't always accurate for pin position though. No coolers on the carts really stinks, make sure you get something from the snack bar before you head out.

Almost

People have talked about this course and I finally went and played. I enjoyed the layout and the teeing options, with a nice range to warm up on and a smallish putting green that was pretty close to how the actual greens played. The greens were decent but definitely needs some TLC. They did hold okay but they were really bumpy and inconsistent from hole to hole. The teeboxes where pretty dry and difficult getting tees in the ground but they did have good turf and weren't just dirt. The sand traps use a really different sand from most and it can take some getting used to if you don't play out of them much. The fairways were ok but really dry and many drives rolled out into the rough, which was not terrible in most cases. A few areas where they are working on the course but nothing to distracting. I think with a bit of care and good spring weather this course will be worth another play.

Decent track

I have played this course many times, although it had been many years since I last teed one up there. The layout is still unique and does make you plan and choose your level of chance. It isn't a long course but all the elevated greens can make you pay for missed approaches. Greens were in good condition but people need to learn how to walk as so many of the greens were really bumpy within a 10 ft radius around the hole as people drag their feet. No GPS on the carts so make sure you have a rangefinder or GPS of your own.

Close to excellent

I love the layout of the course. The conditions are pretty good for fall. My complaint is the greens. While they are fun, good size and shapes, and the speed of them is pretty consistent and medium speed, my issue is all of the little weed patches that are taking over and ruining the consistency of the roll. There is no GPS on the carts so make sure you bring something to show distances.

I want to say it is getting better

This former gem in the city of Garland has lost most of its luster over the years. With the exception of the 1st and 2nd greens being out of commission due to fungus, the rest of the greens were in really good shape. They rolled well and held well if you hit the right shot into them. The rest of the course is in desperate need of water and TLC. Many of the teeboxes are in some maintenance mode or they are rock hard ground so good luck getting a tee down. The fairways have decent grass but with how dry it is many shots will not stay in the fairway unless hit right down the middle. Still a fun little layout, just wish this former gem could one day shine again.

Nice course in golf community

I played the South and West 9s, but there is also a third called North. The layout uses the terrain and provides a good option of going for it or playing smart and using what the designers give you. The course was in excellent shape. The greens were very responsive, rolled true and fast. Lots of undulation in the greens to challenge all skill levels. Nice pro shop, driving range with both grass and mats, good practice putting green, and decent short game area. Food from the turn was really good and the prices were lower than most places I have played.

Worth the drive

This course has a good layout, several different teeing options and plays challenging on some holes with tighter fairways, trees, various bunkers, undulating greens and then some holes are wide open and you can really go for it and score. The course was in good shape, some of the greens need some repair work but overall they rolled well and if you spin the ball it will dance. The driving range was closed due to heavy rain but it appeared to be in excellent condition. Practice putting green mirror the actual greens maybe a bit faster as it did feel drier than the course greens. The short game area was decent with various shots possible including bunkers. The carts lack GPS so you will need a range finder on the course as the on course markings weren't very visible or accurate.

A Tale of Two Nines

This course is like siblings, same parents but can be completely different. The front nine is a Link design with water threating almost every shot, but it still has plenty of fairway for some miss hits, just don't plan on finding your ball if you play a slice or hook very often. The back nine plays to a bit of elevation change on a few holes and is a tighter tree lined track. Shot shaping and course management is key to a good score. The greens were in good shaped and seem to roll pretty good for being a bit thicker than they could be.

Needs some TLC

This course has potential but current it sits in rough shape. The layout is fun, utilizing the terrain really well, providing players with a variety of different shots. However, that where my positive experience stalls out. It is a small town course that doesn't get the TLC it needs and it shows. I know there was bad weather in the DFW area and most courses are struggling with their non-bentgrass greens, but it is like they aren't even trying. 16 of 18 are unputtable, so many bad spots and bumps, hard as concrete, just not fun to play on. Hopefully fixing them will be a priority. All the bunkers are ground under repair in my opinion and aren't playable. Another weird thing is how many of the fairways on the back nine are rutted and it makes for almost every shot to be a crazy uneven lie, it is so bad driving the carts on them isn't recommended.

Fun course for shotmaking

Course is in great shape. Greens held and rolled well, slightly fast. Only complaint is the condition of the bunkers, they needs some TLC. They are playable but really firm sand. Love the course layout and the use of the terrain and elevation changes.

Blisteringly Hot!

First time to play the course and it was fun. The layout is challenging, uses the terrain well and has enough length, risk reward, trees, and water to make things interesting. My only real complaint are the greens. The were recently punched and haven't been well taken care of since. The didn't putt well and that cost strokes. I will play this course again, hopefully when the weather isn't so hot, and the greens are in much better shape.

I know about playing golf in Texas in mid summer, but this was awful. Over 100 degrees, over 90% humidity, and absolutely no wind to speak of. Couple that will the fact that all the drinking water is removed from the course and there was no cart service, made for a difficult day. This rule about removing water from the course is the dumbest safety precaution that has been implemented yet.

Summer play

First time playing this course. Fun layout, multiple tee boxes for varying skill levels. Greens have multiple tiers and decent size. They hold well, and the speed was medium. I wish they would roll them a bit more often as this would help them. Fairways were in good shape and made for a very playable lie. Bunkers are in need of repair so don't play out of them until fixed, and until there are rakes again. The front nine plays much more difficult than the back and is quite a bit longer. Good practice facility available for putting, chipping and full swing.

Fun layout

First time playing this course. Loved the layout and teebox options. Can play short or long, depending on wind it can make it even longer or shorter on various holes. Greens were in good shape, rolled true and speed was pretty good. Only thing I miss is having GPS but with a decent rangefinder yardage is easy to get. Fairways are pretty wide and allow for various shots from the tee and can be quite forgiving.

Under repair

I know that it is technically still winter and the weather has been up and down here in the Dallas area, but there are course in the same area that are in much better shape. This course almost doesn't seem to care much for maintenance during the winter which is a shame. The layout is fun, the design makes you play golf instead of just bombing it on every hole. However, the ground on the teeboxes is very sporadic, the bunkers are unplayable, and fairways are very thin. Hopefully spring does much for this course because I would like to play it when it is in good shape. They are remodeling the clubhouse/proshop so food/beverage wasn't also very subpar.
