The Trails of Frisco Golf Club
About
The Trails of Frisco golf course is one of Jeff Brauer’s most unique designs -- primarily because it doesn’t fit the mold of his other courses. Brauer, who’s known for his open, straight-forward courses, designed this one to tip out to a par 71, 6,900 yards, loaded it with hidden creeks, scenic wetlands, extensive bunkering, and massive greens. In fact, first-timers will be confused here. They’ll face intimidating views off the tee that leave doubt as to the problems that loom ahead, and it is definitely possible to lose all of your balls off the tee if you’re struggling.
The golf course is just flat-out challenging, especially on the front nine. No. 1 opens up with a creek on the left that cuts in front of the green and generally makes its presence known on every shot. The play here is to stay right and stay away from its subtle presence on the left side. The creek comes into play on Nos. 2, 4, 5, and even No. 9, where it chutes from the fairway in front of the green and surrounds the green of this challenging par 4.
All told, water and waste areas are in play on 16 of 18 holes (including every par 3), and the creeks are enhanced by visible lakes and ponds on the back side, even though it is considered a bit easier than the front.

Golfer Reviews
What a waste..
The course was in terrible shape. Muddy, cracked, dirt patched fairways. 5.5 hours of pure disappointment. Criminal how much they charge for such a terrible course. Boycott by all means.
Very nice course with some tough holes!
All in all, great course, friendly staff and we got to see the partial eclipse during our round! The one negative I have is that I was in the bunkers five times and there was not a rake at four of the five bunkers. I think we saw the Beer Angel more than we saw rakes! That was nice compared to our normal courses in OK.
False scarcity of tee times
We purchased 4 tickets due to the scarcity of time slots. As we go to check in, the club advised us that the course is a ghost town. That said we would have never purchased 4 tickets to be proactive. Also, majority of the tee boxes had massive cracks due to erosion.
Hit and miss experience
I got there early and ate lunch, young lady at the bar was very friendly. Went to range to warm up, range is horrendous. Course was OK for the money, played in 2 hours and 20 mins by myself.
Terrible condition
One of the more expensive public courses in DFW and this was the worst condition I’ve seen a course in. Awful tee boxes, almost every fairway had rock hard/ cracked open patches. Greens were okay, but many had tractor tire marks.
The layout of the course is unique and challenging but terrible conditions. Not worth the green fee, there are plenty of other public courses that are in much better shape even after the summer heat.
Poor Frisco Trails
At one time this was one of the better courses and deals in Frisco. However, today it’s and overpriced goat field with average greens. Don’t waste your money…
Was not great
The fairways and tee boxes were very dry and not in good shape... huge cracks in the fairway would "eat" golf ball... also, huge bounces on hard fairways made increase difficulty. However, rough around greens was way over grown... Best feature of this course was Payton the cart girl. She was all business and made rounds fast/quick.
Challenging course
The course is very challenging and I would not recommend it for a beginner. Several holes have layups and then long shots into greens that have drop offs to the hazards. Most greens have limited room on one side so you can’t miss shots on that side of the green or just reach in your bag for another ball. The bunkers are in terrible condition and are basically unplayable. The rest of the course is fine. If you want a challenge this is.a good test.
Split decision
My opinion of this course is a split decision: greens (for midrange public course) are actually quite good — roll true and are fair to the average golfer; a little slow for my liking, but good, particularly for the time of year. Rest of the course is in pretty good condition and the staff were very much encouraging everyone to fill their divots and fix ball marks— more courses need to do this. I am not a fan of the layout — very choppy, target golf. Too many layups are required— one par 4 I had to hit 7-iron on the tee which left a 5-iron into the green. Just lacks flow. Will be back, but not too soon.
Overall Solid Course
I really like this course layout and the greens are in very good shape. Pace of play was good and we had a solid time out there. The only issue I had was some of the bunkers were in really bad shape, almost unplayable. At a cheaper course, I’d let this slide, but when I’m paying $92 for a round, I expect every aspect of the course to be great.
Wonderful condition.
Course in great shape. Fairways and greens are super nice.
