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.

Excellent
Best course available on GolfNow that I’ve played in the DFW area BY FAR. Will be back.
Best Semi Private in N TX
Greens were awesome, fairways plush! Worth every dollar, Add a cart girl during the week and perfection!
Beautiful course
Course is stunning. Very well kept. Greens are amazing. One of the best in the area for sure.
Spectacular Maintenance!
Great golf course with great playing conditions. The greens are always in great shape. Tremendous value with private club conditions!
The Best Public Course in North DFW
100% the top course I have played in north DFW. The course is always pristine. Greens roll true. Scenery is amazing.
Even with rain the course conditions still held up very well. I’m about a 10-15 handicap playing from the tips - great challenge for those of us who want to play a long, winding course. Deceivingly long from the back tees.
My only issue was the 12th hole didn’t have a flag, not sure what happened there, but it ended up adding an extra stroke to my score card since I was just aiming at the miss on that hole.
Overall, always excellent - will come back here many, many times!
beautiful course
Probably the most well kept and beautiful course I’ve played.
Very nice
Very nice layout and in very good condition, definitely the best course conditions in the Plano/Wylie area. Maybe not worth $120 every weekend but it’s worth the drive every chance you can afford it.
The Best in North Dallas
I love playing golf at Heritage Ranch. I played at many other golf courses in its 15-20 miles radius and found this to be the best. It has an excellent lay outs. Greens and fairways are well-maintained. Most importantly the entire staff is very friendly and always talk in a friendly and courteous manner.
Beautiful fun challenging (for me)
Awesome course well maintained greens are okay but given a couple of weeks they’ll be better because I saw the staff working hard on the course to rejuvenate it after the winter. Absolutely will play again! Highly recommended.
Great course in a private community
At $49 on Golf Now, this is a great value compared to the other courses in Frisco/Plano. Lot's of nice dog legs and the greens are in great shape. If you are a walker like myself, just know there a couple of holes where you have to walk a good distance between the greens and next tee box. Will definitely play here again.
Awesome!!!
Beautiful Day Beautiful Course and I was grouped with two gentlemen Javier & Zia and we played well.
Where was marshal?
February? 82 degrees? Of course it will be packed! That is why a marshal was needed. But I never saw one.
It took 45 minutes to play two holes. Then we went to No. 3, which, with us, had four groups on it! .
I bolted to and found two holes on the front nine completely empty. I found a group on 13 that was three men and two women. In front of them, there were two holes wide open. Very, very pleasant people, but very slow. They let me motor past them.
I paid a bargain price and got bargain golf. So no complaints. I just wish I was retired and could marshal this course. This is my favorite course and 99% of the time it is well managed.
