Waterchase Golf Course

After being battered with awful green conditions recently on other courses, I was very happy to see perfect greens at Waterchase. Perfect. Fairways and tees were grassy too. Pace was excellent even with a tournament ahead of and behind us.

Course is still a good one although with a few quirky holes. The riverside holes could use better sightlines. 5 par 5's and 5 par 3's are kinda cool to play. Several holes are treelined and driver stays in the bag.

Overall the best course I have reviewed this summer. Not for everyone, but a good challenge to better players. Some really good fishing in the lakes too, if you can sneak a pocket rod in your bag :)

Lastly - how are they still in a temporary trailer 15 years after opening?

Played Saturday afternoon and to my surprise nobody was there. We had the course to ourselves. The course conditions were excellent, greens could have been better but putted well. I highly recommend playing here.

This is a tough course. There are 5 or 6 tee boxes for all levels! The layout is challenging and fun because it makes you use all of your bag. The greens are usually in really good condition. They are about 2 1/2 week out from being punched so they are starting to roll really nice. The price during peak hours is expensive but twilight you can find good deals. Highly recommended course!!!

I love this course. The first time I played it, about 8 years ago, I rinsed 6 sleeves of balls as a beginner... Now that I'm playing more regularly, and shooting in the mid to low 80s, I recognize that greens are a pivotal part of the course. The greens on this course were filled with sand. At times to the point where it seemed as if I was putting in a bunker. I expect better course conditions when I pay $50 for a round of golf. Now to be fair, the rest of the course was in excellent shape and the course service came early and often on a hot Saturday afternoon. I think a suggestion not only for this course but for all courses is, if you, as a course have aerated the greens and filled them with sand, alert the players or cut the cost....my $0.02.

This is a very nice layout: interesting holes and well maintained. The clubhouse is terrible, not at all a match for the quality of the course. When I have had pace of play issues, the marshals have done nothing. Today's round (almost 5 hours) was unnecessary -- if only a marshal would have pressured one group.

Took advantage of twilight rate at 3:00. Course was in great shape, as usual! They had some type of tournament there that day and I think we ran into it about hole 14. Took almost as long to play those last 5 holes as the first 13. Green roll true and are good speed! Recommend it highly!

A wonderful round of golf. Some holes are a bit tricky without course knowledge . . . this will cost you a few strokes . . . but in great shape! Don't always take your driver out of the bag. Greens were well taken care of and intriguing enough to make you think a bit. Friendly staff limited by the clubhouse or lack thereof, but if you just want to play golf this is highly recommended.

I had always heard good things about Waterchase, but I didn't expect it to be that good. I couldn't keep my phone out of hand, I took pictures on almost every hole. Course was in immaculate shape, fairways were carpet. Besides aesthetic value, the course plays great too. Perfect mix of trees, water, tall grass, doglegs, and forced carries. While challenging, it is not impossible to score well. There are a lot of forced carries, so if you're a beginner, this may not be the best place for you, but it really is something great.

Awesome course. No real marshaling. They let a five some out second group on a weekend. When we complained management didn't care. Never playing here again

What a great Course! Waterchase Golf Course was an excellent destination for our group of 8 traveling to Ft Worth to play golf. Facilities were in good shape and was an outstanding track. The staff and customer service was AWESOME!!! I can't tell you how wonderful it was for multiple members of the staff to greet us and ask if we had any questions and engaged in conversation with us. Jason, the General Manager went out of his way several times to make sure our time at Waterchase was outstanding. Arrangements for the round were made with Clarence who was very kind and accommodating with our booking. Our group had an awesome experience and will be back to Waterchase next time we are in the Dallas Area no doubt.

How this course isn't reviewed more is beyond me. It is one of the more unique courses in the area, with almost every hole requiring advanced thought and good course management. It has held up quite well after the rough winter and drought. It is more akin to a championship style course than just about any public course in DFW. Give it a shot, you'll keep coming back

I can't believe there's no reviews of Waterchase! I've been in Dallas as a business traveler for a few weeks. Played 13 of the supposed best public courses (in the evenings) . Waterchase is the best. It's in great condition and has a wide variety of challenging holes. I enjoyed it more each time I played. A seriously good golf course that's better than most privates around.
