About
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.

All Around Great Course
Even with the 105+ heat index I enjoyed every moment at Heritage Ranch. Staff was friendly from the starter to bartender. The tee boxes were in excellent shape as were the fairways and some of the best greens in DFW area. Played for a hot deal $40 and is well worth much more than that. Will definitely play here every chance I get!
Top 3 public course in north Dallas
Pros: The course is always in perfect condition. The pace of play is also very quick. Even on weekends you can play in <4 hours as a 4some. Layout is challenging and has good variety of tight/short and long/open holes. Lots of places where you need to play 1 shot ahead.
Cons: Range is small if you like a detailed warm up. They also let singles/pairs off a lot which can be frustrating if you get played through a lot as a 4some.
Heritage Ranch
Front and back are entirely different at least off the tee.The front requires precision off the tee and the back is more open and wide fairways. The greens need about another week to heal from being punched but I knew that would be the case because it was listed in golf now, which is nice. The course is off the beaten path somewhat but worth the trip. Excellent warmup facility, the staff was very friendly, course is very challenging and I won’t hesitate to play there again when I am in the area.
Nice surprise
Arrived earlier than appointed time and was pleased to find I could start play. Staff was knowledgeable and helpful, course was not ao crowded so that I moved at my own pace. Great conditions.
Enjoyed Getting Re-Acquainted With Heritage
It's been awhile since I have played Heritage; it's always enjoyable. A bit more challenging than some other courses, but a fun track.
Must Play
This course never disappoints! Course is in great shape and the greens are the best around.
Amazing
Absolutely amazing course. Tee box, fairways, sand traps, greens in amazing shape. Pace of play was perfect.
Couse in good condition. Slow groups in front of us.
Great course, unfriendly staff
The course was in amazing condition, with a lot of very challenging holes. Other than the fact our cart died in between holes 4 & 5, and it took the staff 25 minutes to get a new cart to us, the on course experience was great. The staff is rather unfriendly and less than welcoming, but everything else was great.
Course was in great shape. My most favorite place to play.
Very nice course.
Played behind a very slow group of elderly gentleman. That will be expected out there.
Never Disappoints
Heritage Ranch is a great track. The conditions were outstanding, except for the aerified greens (hey, they have to do it).It's important to position your tee shot in the proper place on many holes.
