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.

Pleasant Day
My Son-in-Law was in town, so we decided to get in a round of golf. We had played here before and enjoyed it, so we came back. We were glad we did. The staff is excellent here. Very friendly and knowledgeable. The value received is tremendous, there aren't many courses in the North Dallas area that are a better value. We will be back again in the future. If you haven't tried the course, you definitely should, I believe you will enjoy it!
Decent but expensive
Always like playing this course as it's challenging, but not always in the best shape. It is in pretty decent chape now, but it's not worth $96 and they put way too much soft sand in the bunkers. They went from no sand, to way too much play sand. Your feet sink immediately and the club just gets stuck in it.
Tough but playable for a High HC
Enjoyed the course it was tough with the creek cut ins. If you are a high HC player like me bring extra balls. But overall it was nice. The hot dog at the turn is good and prices are on point.
Poor ahape
Overall the course was in terrible shape. The greens were decent, but every tee box looked like it got torn up with a plow. Very uneven with pits all I’ve them. Almost every bunker was completely unplayable. And for 209.00 for two players, it’s extremely overpriced. Shouldn’t be more than 30-40.00 each in my opinion.
Good fun course
Good fun course to play. Especially if you hit draws; a lot of dog leg lefts.
Nice
Played here before. Course is decent. It’s challenging. Played during winter so probably nicer during peak season. Starter was nice. The tee boxes could use some work and there were spots on course that need some attention. Overall a decent value for around this area. Probably be back someday but not gonna add to top of list.
Great course for beginners
We had a variety of different level of golfers from beginners to seasoned players and e all enjoyed our experience.
Course needs work
Greens are in outstanding shape. Other than that the course needs some work. Tee boxes are dirt, a lot of dirt patches in fairway,
Rough shape
Bridges and cart paths were nearly impassable
Bunkers were not playable
Tee boxes were mostly just dirt
Greens were fortunately in good shape
The course needs a LOT of work before I would play it again
Texas Winter
Course was in really good shape. Fairways starting to go dormant. Greens were in great shape, quick, and ran true.
