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.

Afternoon heat means great pace of play
Played with a "hot deal" and no one was on the course. If you've never played the course, be prepared to lose balls unless you're shots go where you're aiming at.
Little bit slow players this afternoon.
Everything is fine with me, just followed group of tournament(?) Was little bit slow playing due to the one of player got several moligans.
Overpriced
$60 of this course is ridiculous. Greens are like putting on shag carpet. Bunkers are like playing out of something that has been baked in a kids easy bake oven-total hardpan. Everything around the edges of the course needs to be cleaned up. No reason to lose a golf ball 6” off the cart path. I’ve played. It if courses in the metroplex that are better than this and not nearly as expensive. Pace of play on a weekend was almost 6 hrs- saw plenty of marshals but they were looking for golf balls. In this condition this course should be about $25-30 on weekends, not $60. Don’t waste your time until management t decided to put some money into the daily upkeep of the course. I love lesa than 5 minutes from it and will not be back.
Strategic Golf. Great Pace
This is a great course. Very strategic and enjoyable. Never felt any pressure nor did we ever have to wait on anyone. I try to play a different course as much as possible and really enjoyed this one. Will be back for sure and bring my family and friends.
Bring lots of balls
The course was surprisingly challenging. There was water on almost every single hole in the course. However, it was still fun for a novice golfer like myself. The pace of play was perfect and the overall price was definitely reasonable. I would come back and play her again.
Nice course- always enjoy it.
This course is generally well maintained and has a good layout with a variety of challenges. Great value when you find the deals. I’ll always come back.
Great course for the price
My Buddy and I played this course for the first time today. It’s a challenging course that makes you think a bit about every shot. The greens were in great shape and the few times I found the fairway it was nice as well. Overall a great course for the price.
First Time!
Beautiful course in Frisco and with Golf Now the value was great as well for only $30. Greens were a lil inconsistent but in great shape with well manicured fairways. I’ll play here many more times.
P.S. stay in the fairway or you’ll suffer the ruff! Lol
Great course, great value
Me and my brother got a hot deal for 15$ a piece which is hard to beat value-wise.. The gentleman in the pro shop was not enthusiastic at all, but friendly enough I guess. Tee boxes in good shape. fairways are nice and plush on almost every hole, but there are some dry spots with little grass on a few holes, no problem just move the ball over 5 ft to some good grass. Greens are tough but fair and true rolling and in great shape. Girl at the bar on the turn wasn’t friendly either, that’s my only complaint.. tough course, but lots of fun, bring a bunch of balls ;)
Great course that makes you think about every shot
Great course in good condition with a few challenges along the way. The marshalls were great, even had a nearest the pin challenge with one of them. The fairways were immaculate, the bunkers needed a little work and the greens were a little slow but overall we had a great afternoon at The Trails.
Enjoy round of the Golf...
Happy 4th of July...
Great maintenances, great player and staff.
Always let us play (2 some) thru the holes(nice player).
Always enjoying rounds of golf with wife very much this course..
