Old Brickyard Golf Course
About
Some argue that the tricked-up golf course has no place in today’s game, but they might change their mind after visiting the eclectic Old Brickyard. As the name implies, the course lays out in and around an old brickyard, featuring dramatic elevation changes, blind shots, and some unbelievable, almost impossible holes. This is one you’ll want to play just to say you’ve seen it.
The opening holes are pretty basic as you traverse northward before turning into the meat of the course, where the dramatic elevation changes start wreaking havoc on your club selection. After about the third or fourth hole, every hole seems to have some unique feature.
The Old Brickyard Lake comes into play on holes 9-11, some of the most difficult holes you’ll find anywhere. After you limp homeward suffering near-disasters on the tricky par 3 No. 8, which plays over water and seems to drop about 5 stories, and the demented 9th hole, which features a funky tee shot and challenging approach over water to a difficult green, No. 10 is not a welcome sight. Hole 10 plays from an elevated tee box, with water along the right. Water comes into play on the next two shots as well, since it cuts across the dogleg-right fairway. If you’re struggling, this is a double-digit hole for sure.
There’s no real break after No. 10, either. The 13th requires a precision short iron to a tiered green. More surprises await as you finish the round, so be prepared. The yard is a fun day of golf.
Getting there : Take I-45 south from Dallas to Ferris, then exit 267 and continue down the access road to the entrance on the right.

Golfer Reviews
Get what you pay for
To me it’s a fun course to play. It has it’s issues just like most courses. I’ve come to not expect a lot when I play here. Some holes the layout just doesn’t work, some holes just can’t be improved & some make you say “wow.” Unfortunately it’s just the lay of the locked land.
Not worth the drive
I’ve played many courses in DFW and this lands itself in the bottom 3. The reviews on this course must be automated or written by their workers with fake account because it should have no more than 2 stars on every review. Tee boxes aren’t level and have of them are missing grass. The fairways actually aren’t bad. The greens are very difficult to read, small, very hilly and missing some grass as well. This course has very many blind shots or around corners or water so bring very many golf balls. You’ll go up and down hills and the pin placements were not favorable at all. Overall the course doesn’t play very consistent you may have a nice tee box one hole and the next is patchy grass. You’ll likely be hitting into other holes on some holes and most golfers out here are beginners, which isn’t a bad thing but shows that the course isn’t very well taken care of due to lack of care and people just hacking into the ground. There are courses to play with friend and care less and there are courses to enjoy the site and etiquette of golf. This is not the latter, but the former. I will not be playing this course ever again even though the reviews may say 5 stars for the next 10 years. I cannot see it getting any better because of the layout. Some serious renovations would need to occur. If you do decide to play, good luck
A few bare spots on some fairways and greens but nothing crazy. A few blind tee shots, well placed water hazards provide a great challenge. 10th hole is amazing!
We play this course many time after the freeze cause if the challenge. The winter repairs to this course are absolutely awesome!! These guys got it done, just praying ok mr winter has mercy this year.
worth the trip
This course has rebounded nicely from the bad weather this past winter. Thank you to the groundskeeping crew.They did a great job getting the course playable again.The course is very challenging with blind tee shots,.must be able to hit the driver good to be in position to hit approach shots to the green.The greens are in good shape.highly recommend this course
Fine for a deal
Not a great course, but for $25 we were in. Course is ok, not great. Staff are nice. Good when there’s a deal, but not looking to come back here.
Great Rebound
We played the Brickyard earlier this year. The course was in poor condition. - victim of the hard cold and ice of winter. In talking to the office, we told them that we didn't think the course could recover. They told us that they were starting the rebuilding of the tee boxes and greens the following week.
We were amazed at the conditions of the course today. There were almost no signs that Old Man Winter ever threw his worst at it. While the weather has been dry in North Texas this Summer, you would never know it looking at the course.
Great Job. Thanks,!!
Good unique course. Great value
Good course layout, especially the back nine. Fairly good condition although there’s room for improvement. Great bang for the buck. We’ll play it again. Nit a 5 start like the last few reviews on here but definitely not a 1 start. If you want an affordable fun round, check it out.
Wow , what an improvement
The greens were fantastic, the fairways and tee boxes were great. They sure bounced back from the freeze. !!
