About
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 place
Great value for the money
Got me out earlier than my toe time
Grass range is excellent
Good course away from DFW
Gunter is a bit far out of the DFW metroplex but if you're near the McKinney area take the leisurely north drive to Gunter to play the course. Wide fairways, large greens but still tricky to play.
Condition of course is improving
All the rain has really helped fairways, greens etc. greening up nicely now.
Always enjoy playing this course
Great course, it was still cart path only as of 5/7/25. Driving range was closed but everything should open up soon with the sun and slight wind. Greens are rolling great, tall fescue very punishing if you stray away from the fairways.
Update
Fairways filling in nicely. Grass on tees and around greens doing well. Greens were a bit slow due to long-ish cut. A few muddy or aerated spots but not too bad. In good shape overall. Always a fun layout and Sunday was a gorgeous weather day. We were the 4th group out and took 4.5 hours due to one group playing the tips and hitting it 200 off the tee (why?!?!). No marshals or pace of play review. It was nice to get off the paths only 2 days after heavy rain. Always a good trip out to Gunter, hopefully able to grow some good rough or consistent fairway grass this summer.
Great condition
First time in nearly 10 years. Fits all levels of golfers.
Must Play Now
What a difference a year makes. Played this course last April and it was in terrible condition. Tee boxes this time were in great shape, fairways grown in nicely, and the greens rolled great! This is a tough course, even from the blues at 6500yards. The fescue will punish you if you’re slightly off target. Live the challenge!
Nice facility, good layout
Course was in good conditions. Clubhouse is nice and comfortable. Had a great time.
Decent course but needs to grow in more
For the time of the year it was pretty good. Many tee boxes and fairways need some work for sure. We enjoyed our first round for the most part. The only complaint I had was with the layout of hole 18. It is terrible. 2 forced layups on a closing par 5... I would maybe consider playing there again if conditions were better and the price was right. It is just way out there...
