Type Public
Par 72
Length 7289 yards
Slope 137
Rating 74.5

Bring your best game to the Links at Waterchase--a long, difficult course that can be had if you get your mind right. Intimidating because of its length (7,304 yards), much of the extra yardage comes from five excruciatingly long par 5s. The key here is to manage these holes, get on the green or close in three, then do what you have to do for your pars.

If you play regularly at a local par 3 course, you might want to work in a practice round before taking on The Links, since there’s five par 3s.

Watch out for the enders on each side, which frame the scenic pond and waterfall that are sandwiched between the two greens. No. 9 is a 433-yard par 4, and requires a solid drive on the left side. Pay attention to the pin placement, as there is water behind the green. No. 18 goes 570 yards from the tips, and offers target golf at its best. You’ll need to lay up at least 120 yards from the hole, and keep the approach below the pin to assure yourself of an uphill putt.

Getting there : Located on the east side of Fort Worth at I-30 and Eastchase Pkwy. Take the Eastchase exit and drive north to John T. White Rd. Turn right and drive a short distance, then take the first right on Randoll Mill Rd. Turn left on Creek Run Rd.

Amazing Track

You will not find another golf course in DFW if amazing greens & fairways, course layout mean anything to you. My first time playing this place, mad that I haven’t been here 50 more times. Great experience all around, and I’ll be back very soon.

Continues to impress

This has become my favorite course in the metroplex. As of 6/25/23, the greens are in perfect condition. Maybe the best I’ve ever played on. Some bunkers need work, but I think I only saw one on #15 that was unplayable. My knock on the course in the past has been pace of play, but four of us made it around in 4:10. Not sure if the course made a change or if the 110 degree heat kept people away. Either way, it was a delightful round.

Great track and cheap front office

We played 3 holes with a score until the lightning struck so close I flinched on my shot. Then the managers gave me a raincheck for $44 on a $71 tee time through golf now.. You do the math...not an establishment I'll deal with again

Outstanding Golf Course

Even though it was hot outside, Waterchase didn't disappoint. Fantastic conditions! If you are picky, the bunkers could have been better. However, fairways and greens were awesome. Would highly recommend.

Pace of play was rough

We teed off at 318

With weather rolling in several groups ahead of us called it quits early. However we still didn't finish our round until 8pm

Almost 5 hours is so slow. Especially with the group in front of us playing so slow. On the 18th hole we waited almost 20 mins for them to tee off and hit their approach shots. And then spent another 20 mins on the green. With no staff in sight policing them the finish up.

It's unfortunate because the course itself is beautiful. Just rough that we took so long to complete a round

Great course, Slow pace

Forest time to play this course and I thought it was great! Excellent conditions for fairways and greens. My only complaint was the pace of play. We teed off at 4:00 pm in June in Texas. Should have been plenty of time to finish the round. I was in a foursome that each player was probably between 10-25 handicap. Foursome in front of us was two couples ( men’s and ladies tees each time). Not sure who might have been in front of them. We played 4-1/2 hours until they required us to return the carts and only got through hole 15! It was really disappointing!

Otherwise a very nice course in great conditions.

Waterchase

This course was awesome! All of the greens and fairways were in great shape and the pace of play was excellent! This course provides a ton of challenging shots which I think adds to the course’s appeal! All of the staff and amenities were good and even had the cart girl pass us three times which for some of the courses in Fort Worth would be a miracle to even see them twice. Definitely one of my favorite courses in DFW.

Reviews are spot-on

Great greens - the best in the area right now from what I have seen. Fairways are solid and firm. Fun layout with 2 or 3 very demanding holes. I thought bunkers were just fine, but I only encountered two of them. Pace can be an issue here because of the difficulty of the layout, a few holes CPO, and some people just play the wrong tees A marshal on course would be appreciated by those of us who know the game. Staff here are friendly but can sometimes be a little confusing.

Go play here if you want great conditions, no houses, solid layout and don't mind a 5 hour round. Did I mention the great greens?!

Fantastic course!

First off... this course was amazing for the money. The fairways and greens were really good shape. Also caught it on a low wind day. Good sized fairways. Also, no houses to worry about... always a plus to me. My only complaint about this course was the bunkers. they were very firm and rocky. If they fix that the course would be one the best in the area. Will definitely be back. I didn't have a best round for my first time, but I will definitely be back. Also, they had free pizza at the turn which was awesome.

Solid course, needs some maintenance and attention though to get it back to looking good. Also a Marshall on the course would be nice, 2somes slowing down everyone.

Course good, Pace bad

The course was in good shape. Friendly staff. Carts had very slow acceleration and speed but had gps and bluetooth speakers built into them. Pace of play was horrendous. Waited several minutes at each tee for the group in front to even tee off, while the group behind was doing the same for us. Was told the issue was due to a tournament that morning screwing up the pace. Overall, the layout and condition was solid.

A little slow

Many reviews talk of slow play. That was definitely the case for us. Painfully slow. Especially for a Monday. I imagine the weekend is worse. Also, no beverage cart. That was disappointing.

As far as the course itself, very nice. Conditions were great. Layout is great. Can be a little tricky, but still fair.

If you can tolerate slow play, then I highly recommend playing the course.
