About

Holes 18
Type Public/Resort
Par 72
Length 6988 yards
Slope 138
Rating 80.2

Heritage Ranch serves up an especially challenging par 72, 6,988-yard Arthur Hills design that rolls through the oaks and pecans just outside of Fairview. And while it’s part of a gated, active-adult residential community, the course is open to the public and especially fun because it integrates well with the neighborhood. Houses line some fairways, but a fair number of holes provide that natural, rural feel that is always so welcome on a golf course.

While the course is not particularly demanding off the tees, the real challenge at Heritage Ranch comes from the mound-shaped greens. If your irons aren’t dialed in, you’ll be working hard for ups and downs.

No. 1 is a unique opener because it bends left down to a fairway and green that aren’t visible from the tee. Big drives can get close, but the recommended play is to take a long iron and draw it over the hill.

The par 5s on the front are nice holes. No. 3 doglegs right and requires a good tee shot, followed by a relatively easy second shot into a widening fairway toward the hole. The trick is nailing the short iron (almost a blind shot) into the elevated green guarded by bunkers on the front. No. 7 is longer and offers a good chance for birdie, again because of its wide-open nature.

No. 16 is the signature hole: a par 3 masterpiece that plays along a natural spring waterfall. You’ll need to nail a long iron over the valley and avoid the trees that overhang the fairway from the right.

No. 18 is a good finisher–it’s a long par 4 that doglegs left around a few large fairway bunkers, then works its way uphill to an elevated, mound-shaped green surrounded by bunkers. Ups and downs are possible here if you miss the green back left, which is easy to do when you approach with a fairway wood.

Getting there : Only 20 miles northeast of Dallas, take I-75 north to the Stacy Road exit, then turn right and drive to the dead end. The road jogs to the left, then right, and continues as Stacy Road. The entrance is 2 miles down on the left.

Great course, but….

Course was in pretty good shape, but some tee boxes and some greens were not ideal, probably because of recent weather conditions. Can’t wait to see what it’s like when the fairways are greener.

Soft, true, quick greens

This course is awesome. Incredible value. Playing in Texas, I’m used to rock hard greens that don’t allow you to stop the ball. This course is not that. Greens were soft and the ball stopped on a dime. I felt like a pro out there. Huge boost to confidence. The course is open and great for players of all skill level.

Pace of play could have been better for a Tuesday. There were 3 consecutive 1some’s in front of us that slowed the pace a bit. Not incredibly inconvenient though. The course was beautiful enough to where I didn’t mind taking it all in.

I will be back next week. The value is just too great.

Great Course

Enjoyed the course. The only challenge is that there are houses nearby on some holes so if you slice the ball , beware of breaking windows. Otherwise it's a great experience.

Many bunkers under repair & poor drainage after rain

We started early after a heavy rain overnight. Fairways were soggy and had many puddles (more like small ponds), so we were limited to cart path only. On the fifth hole, the starter drove up as we were teeing off and told us that holes 5 & 6 are closed and hole 7 will be par 3 (instead of 4). No apologies & no offers to compensate. We had to drive backwards to cut over to the temporary 7th tee because the carts would lock up when we got off the cart path. On the back 9, many of the fairway bunkers were under repair and unplayable.

Only complaint

Tee time was after 3 and ran out of time to finish 18. Partly due to slow play and part due to the start time. Otherwise a great experience and looking to book again soon!

Heritage is Always Great

I love this course and will continue to come back again and again. Great conditions and layout create an awesome round that can’t be beat by the majority of the metroplex courses.
