Tierra Verde Golf Club

This was my second time to play TV, and it is still one of my favorite courses in the DFW area. They are honest and advertise that their greens are bad due to the winter. There was really only 2-3 greens that were any worse than the rest of the greens in Texas. Other than the greens, the course was in great condition. Plush fairways all around, rarely a bad lie due to course conditions. I would recommend TV to anyone, and can't wait to play it again this summer!

yes the greens were bumpy. but they are recovering from the extreme winter. the rest of the course was in excellent condition

Unfortunately the greens as a whole were in very poor shape due to fungus/disease, etc. round was 4 1/2+ hous. Too long for so few players on the course. Marshall's were not around except on the first hole.

I finally was able to play here due to a deal from golfnow and was excited because I had heard great things about this course. I was shocked on how poorly the greens were! It was like putting on gravel. This was on every hole also! I'm sure it was due to the weather but the course could of warned everyone before paying to play here.

This is a great course, but difficult if you're very far from the fairway. Somewhat expensive, but by far the best Arlington Municipal course.

I love the layout but they have let this course go. The greens are some of the worst I have ever seen. Lake Arlington greens are terrible and they are actually better than Tierra Verde. Just don't do it, I'm warning you.

You can tell now which courses took care of their greens during the cold winter and which ones did not. Alas Tierra Verde did not. And for an expensive course that is not right as there are plently in the area at the same price where the greens are in top shape. Because of that I won't play here again this year.

Beautiful clubhouse, fairways were in excellent condition as were the bunkers but the GREENS?! They were in horrible condition...especially when your comparing them to the other course conditions which were excellent. Really hoping they address the greens...would like to play there more often if they do.

I'd heard about this course being the crown jewel of Arlington golf and I can definitely see where it has been before. As of the day I played the greens were just not good. Spotty, dying, just not very puttable. Everything else was in really good shape.

This has been one of my favorite area courses. In the past it has been almost pristine and the layout is very nice. Unfortunately the greens have gotten away from them. 2/3 of the greens were very bad. Ruined the whole round. Hopefully they will get them back, but hard to understand since most of the area courses have great greens now.

We've played here before and the course is typically in great condition. It's been a long, cold winter and the course is just starting to shape up and hopefully the greens will too. We couldn't beat the pace of play.

The course was nice and fun to play. The fairways were tight, lots of bunkers. The greens were very wet and did not run consistent. There were some areas on some greens with not much grass, but had dirt. They charged for my wife to ride the cart with me. $14, which I thought was crazy. I have not been charged for a family member to ride the cart with me for over ten years. They charged too much for the green fee anyway. Overall the course was over rated. I felt like because I did not live in the area they would stick me with a fee. The place was not that crowed, I can see why. It will be a long time before I play there again. A nice touch they have is they meet you in the parking lot to help with the bags and will take your cart back at the end of the day.

Enjoyed my round. Great course I will be back. tight tree lined fairways accurate tee shots needed.

I enjoyed the course a lot. Very friendly staff and the pace was great. We finish 18 holes under 4 hours. I Highly recommend this course.

Great layout, well designed, well maintained, and very scenic. I played in mid-March on one of the first nice days after a relatively rough winter for the area so the course wasn't very green. Having said that, the fairways and greens were still very well manicured. It's laid out through a nature reserve (which probably violates a true nature reserve classification) so it's a very scenic trek. Also, very few holes run near one another so you rarely see others on the course...it also helps with the safety factor that can be problematic at some public courses. I can't wait to get back out there in a month or two, after things get a bit greener. I would highly recommend this course.

the greens were very bumpy. they had new grass buds growing out of them which made putting more challenging than it already is. other than that the course was great. the back nine was even more challenging because the wind started picking up. its worth the drive and it was less than $50 on golf now on a sunday. couldn't pass it up.

I love this course and if I did not live in Garland Texas, I would play it a lot more. That being said, I believe the cart should come with a GPS. There are a lot of blind tee shots, lakes and creeks, that if you don't know they are there, you will hit it into those hazards, even if you hit a good shot. Great course however. It is very fair. Tremendous greens. I would recommend this course to anyone who likes a challenge and loves Golf.

Paid the whopping $4 at the pro shop and was informed that GolfNow had made a mistake on the price to play. He mentioned that GolfNow was going to makeup the difference. I assumed that $4 was extremely low for this golf course as I play here with North Texas Seniors 2 or more times a year and I know that the normal senior rate is in the mid to upper $30 area.
I didn't feel great about the information since Tierra Verde would be reimbursed for the difference, but with a 2:10 tee time and a sunset at 6:17 that day, I thought maybe that what was described as "Twilight" rate actually did apply. In other words, why bring it up!?
The putting green is in the worst shape ever. Poi Anna, a weed, has all but ruined it. Luckily it was not nearly as present on the golf holes but if it gets as bad as the putting green in the future, they will be lucky to have players at all.
Don't get me wrong, this is a magnificent golf course, but I hope the Poi Anna goes way.

Tierra Verde is a course with a good mix of long and short golf holes. # 10 is a very difficult short par 4 and # 11 is a very difficult long par 3. Two of the par 5 holes can be reached with 2 good shots but the other two par 5 holes are definitely three shot holes.

Lots of tight shots so you can lose some balls if your game is not sharp. It follows the philosophy of a good shot is rewarded but a bad shot is punished.

Best of all there aren't any houses on the course. Also a good place to see Roadrunners and occasionally a Bob Cat or Coyote.

One unusual course rule is that no pull carts are allowed on the course.

I played as a single on the last Saturday in April. The pace of play was good (especially for a muni), the staff is very accomodating (as a woman golfer, I find that is not always the case), and the course was in terrific shape. I managed to snag a "hot deal" tee time, so it was a great value for $34.
