Great Experience

The prices are a great value! The staff is always friendly and welcoming. The pace of play is fast. I generally play in the late afternoon and have never had a problem waiting to take a shot. I'm often a single and am allowed to play through when I catch someone. The course is in good shape and always well maintained. Nothing better than the hamburger in the grill. Best around!

Best staff anywhere!

Cleburne is a fun course to play. Keeping it in the fairway is the key here! Though they are dealing with some minor green issues, these are rapidly being addressed by a hard working crew. The course is still very playable as the pins are being kept away from the few rough spots on a couple of the greens.

The staff is very friendly and always willing to help in any way possible creating a relaxed atmosphere and a fun experience. Beautiful view of the lake from the deck on the 19th hole.

If Only the Greens

This could be a great course. It has a nice layout, with come challenging holes. My only complaint is that the greens are horrible! This was my first time playing the course so hopefully it was just bad timing on my part.

Deceptively challenging

Great course. Great value.

This course is in great shape and is a blast to play. The pace is usually faster than average. Recent bunker upgrades have added teeth to an already deceptive course. It appears to be open upon first sight, but if you stray from the fairway the penalty is severe. The added scenic views adds to the round. Look close and you may even see a Bald Eagle nesting close by. Catch a great burger from the clubhouse when finished. This course won't disappoint.

Sleeper!

I used to play this course when it was a barely upgraded cow pasture. The renovation a few years ago turned this course into a must play. It is in a beautiful setting; with beautiful views of the lake and it's near impossible to hit a house - a remote area for sure. Any way, the layout is challenging. Carry over water (Lake Pat Cleburne) on #4 is daunting. The par 3's are tough enough. But, the real bright spot is how this course is maintained. The fairways are lush; the greens are challenging but always cut properly and roll great. The T boxes are maintained and the staff is super friendly and helpful. The value is exceptional. Plus, it is remote enough that you can get a T time anytime you want to play. This course is a "sleeper" in my opinion. If you try it, you will be back because the average golfer can score well on this course. Now, the best hamburger at any golf course ever is a real treat. Jalapeno buns and thick, juicy burgers that are flame broiled make this a great course to have a great lunch before, or after your round. Like Billy ray says, "I like it, I love it, I want some more of it!".

this course is great for me.

I have issues with my Back & Knees and the staff is great on helping and I get to do something I love to do. I can play by my self or with others with no problems. The greens my be rough but they are trying to fix the issue, you can see that they are being worked. there are other courses in the area that have issues also.

Was a nice course in the spring

Major problems on most greens. Don't know what happened since early spring. No water bottles to purchase at clubhouse at start of round. No Poweraid on cart girl's cart during round. After the round, the snackbar said no more hamburgers because it was 4pm. It was actually only 3:56 pm and he had 2 on the grill at the time. Half the reason I went there was for the famous jalapeno bread cheeseburgers. They are delicious. Disappointing to say the least. Should be major green fee discounts until the greens are better.

This is a really good course but right now many of the greens are in terrible shape due supposedly to cool temperatures this spring. I have played before and course was great. Everything still good now except for the greens.

Too pricey for the condition of the course

I consider this to be my hometown course. Lots of work being done on the greens and some new bunkers are in place. Staff is awesome as always. Luke is always running around with a smile and friendly. My only problem is the price for the course condition right now. And when I mentioned the Golf Now deals, "B" wasn't all that pleased with the course not seeing any of that money. Ask the city for more!!!! I'm trying to find good deals and stay loyal to hometown courses. Sorry dude

It is a somewhat challenging course with the amount of wind coming off the lake and in general. The greens are in bad shape from the winter so they are starting to fix them. Would play this course again once the greens are fixed and it greens up a bit.

Great Layout! Friendly Staff!

I have played this course several times over the last few years and have always been pleased the course condition and the hospitable staff. The scenery is beautiful and runs along the banks of Lake Pat Cleburne. The grill serves one of the best hamburgers in the area and they always have cold beer on tap. Well worth the drive.
