The Fred Couples Signature course is the centerpiece of the Bridges at Preston Crossing. The golf course sprawls across rolling hills that most don't associate with north Texas. Mature trees dot the lush meadows, sliced with ribbons of tall native grasses. The parkland layout has a fair amount of challenges and it is especially tough on a windy day. There are subtle but tricky contours thanks to the undulating landscape and several strategically placed bunkers lurk throughout. Water is not too much of a threat on this golf course, except for the memorable finishing hole. This beastly par 5 lays measures 645 yards and wraps around a massive water hazard. The Bridges is a local favorite because not only is it a challenging round, it is also an affordable one.

Great course ! I have been playing out here off and on for 20 years.

Worth the drive!

As always, the course is a pleasure to play. They had punched some fairways but on the whole conditions were great. Greens had been punched earlier the previous week but had already begun healing well.

I’ll always keep The Bridges at the top of my preferred places to play. Great value for the money/experience/conditions.

Greens were in great shape

Greens were great but fairways and tee boxes were just ok. Pricey on weekends/holidays but golfnow deals during the week provide the opportunity for reasonable rates to experience a very nice course. Worth the drive from Allen to Gunter.

Great layout not in the best condition

I absolutely loved this course, but the greens were sandy, and there were some cracks in the fairways. That's probably why there weren't many playing. Other than some of the course conditions, I loved the layout and topography. Playing from the blue tees, some holes were fun and easy while others were very challenging. Overall an enjoyable round of golf. I'd love to play here again.

Fun but challenging

One of my golf buddies came to visit and we decided to play this track. Tee boxes and fairways were good. Green we're solid and quick. Looking forward to playing it again.

Pace of play was super slow for a Monday

Pace of play for a Monday was super slow as our group had to literally wait several minutes to hit each shot. There was not a Marshall on the course at all until we were almost finished. He pulled up on #16 and asked if we were having to wait as a group 4 or 5 groups behind us called the clubhouse. I politely pointed out a group on the tee box, in the fairway, and on the green in front of us as we were just walking off the green. So now that was four groups stacked up on one hole. I am not sure if it’s Booking tee times to close together or if they are letting groups of 5 play as we saw several playing.

The course was in fairly good condition as they are starting to mow some of the higher areas now that they are drying out. There are several greens where the weeks are starting to take ove the fringe though.

Also they do not move the pins everyday because you can see the wear and tear around the cups and grass growing in them.

Also paying $6 for a plain hotdog is ridiculous on a golf course.

Great Golf!

The Bridges is one of my favorite courses to play in the DFW Metroplex Area. Yes it can be a little far distance wise but is well worth it. The course staff is very friendly and very accommodating, driving range is in very good condition. Some of the tee boxes do have some small minor dirt patches but in Texas during the summer you can expect that with any golf course. I’ve played this course from when I was a beginner to now being around a 15-16 handicap and it is still just as fun and challenging to play. Greens are pure and fast, the views around the golf course are very serene and pretty. With 60-70 dollar weekend tee times and 40-50 dollar weekday tee times this course is hard to beat!

Usually a good track but staff and pricing is outrageous

Charged 75$ for a round at 1pm in the middle of the summer when everything is dried out is just insane to me. How is it the same price to play at 7am as it is at 12:50. And the guy in the pro shop had us down for the wrong day and time so almost didn’t get to play.

Awesome

The course was packed but pace was great, even with some people not pairing up as expected. At an affordable price, It’s a beautifully set up track with a good warm up/practice area. I was excited to try this Fred Couples signature course for the first time and was not disappointed. Staff was fantastic as well, would definitely recommend and return.

If you find a good price break play it.

The course is located in a cow pasture setting,which is nice . No real loud traffic or passing cars.

The course layout is fairly on front of you there were a few holes that had me scratching my head. 15 and 18..

One other stand out no GPS on the cart's. Definitely need GPS on the cart's.
