About
Thorntree opened in 1984, and while it has changed ownership multiple times over the years,it remains one of the toughest courses in the DFW area. The course features six lakes and three spring-fed creeks that spice up the layout, as well as immaculate fairways and challenging bent-grass greens.
On the front, No. 5 stands out as one of the most difficult holes – a 400 yard-plus par 4 that runs through a chute of trees and doglegs right into a green sided by a pond.
The back is a bit more difficult, which you’ll realize quickly due to the 666-yard double dogleg No. 10. The next hole is only a 382- yard par 4, but the approach is dicey into the shallow green. No. 13 is another nice hole–only 338 yards with another challenging approach into a green that’s guarded by an old thorn tree.
Getting there : From I-35 south, take the Wintergreen Road exit and turn right. Drive 4 miles to the course, and the entrance is on the right side.

Unkept and unfriendly
I was in town visiting for a couple days and found a hot deal, although the price was good, the course was very unkept. The people in the pro shop were not friendly or welcoming at all, no water or ball washers on the course at all or beverage cart (it was 101° out)
Course is a decent layout but wouldn’t pay full price or visit again. I think there’s many better options out there.
Suprised
Tee boxes are cement. Fairways are dry also. Looks like they are only trying to save the greens. They need Marshall’s on the course. Very rude slow players.
Enjoyed It
Was in town for the weekend, selected this course and was great to play for the price, friendly staff and people paired up with, very very challenging course!
Perfect Greens
The greens were in amazing shape. But the tea boxes were incredibly hard.
The greens are the best part of this course. The fairways are pretty much non existent and the bunkers are horrible.
Nice 1980 design
Typical old design, many fairway and green surfaces are blind. Not my favorite design and most modern courses are not designed in that way. Unfortunately we got two slow balls a head of us, front nine took 3 hours! On ten we managed to pass both so we played back nine in 1 hour!
But really nice condition and nice greens, maybe a bit slow.
Horrible Place
Jimmy is a worthless can't even call him a pro. Management sucks and the course has declined greatly!!! Don't play here.
Horrible Non-Pro
Jimmy is a worthless can't even call him a pro. Management sucks and the course has declined greatly!!! Don't play here.
Horrible Not Pro Jimmy
Jimmy is a worthless can't even call him a pro. Management sucks and the course has declined greatly!!! Don't play here.
Course in great shape. Greens have a little sand but nothing crazy. Wish they had cart person or water jugs out for heat. All around, worth it.
Great course except bunkers
Course was in great shape as far as the fairways and greens. The bunkers leave a lot left to desire with this course. They are hard and unmanaged. This is all this course needs to get 5 star rating .
Seems they've been able to clear all the downed trees from the storms in May. Was in great shape, greens were perfect. Played on a Friday morning, kinda busy but great pace, never had to wait.
Needs work
Overall decent condition, traps are completly useless as they have no sand in them
