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
Good Times
The greens needed some work, but overall the course was great. We were only delayed on a couple of holes, but we never had anyone behind us waiting, so the pace was actually good. Overall this was a fun course that we all enjoyed.
Great elevated tee shot golf
We had a blast playing this elevated tee box course. Tee it high and let it fly and watch your ball sail away. I really liked the downhill par 3 on the front. You can hit 2 less clubs there. The greens are coming back but did not effect play. Friendly Staff and cart girl came by 5 times. Good value and easy access to interstate. A definite go back and play again now that I know where the holes are. Make sure you get the yardage book.
Welcome to the Quarry
A great golf layout if you like scenic views and hitting elevated tee shots. An easy access just off the interstate. Our group had a blast playing this course. The greens are still recovering but the pins were all in areas where putting was no problem. Most shots just off the fairway bounced toward the middle. Make sue you get the yardage book. The Staff was very friendly and the cart girl showed up 5 times during our round. Don't try to get to 10 in 2 shots unless you are very long! Will definitely be back.
great price,unique holes, and really slow
relatively short course but very challenging holes. hard to believe this is a dallas area course because of the extreme hilly terrain. very pretty to the eye but be prepared to hit off of a lot of side hill lies and tons of blind shots. slowest round of golf(literally) i have ever played in my life but I am sure it is not always that way as i was a single stuck behind a fivesome who were hot on the heels of another fivesome who were behind a foursome and on number 9 all 3 groups were literally on the same hole playing as i watched heplessly from the tee box. I would love to play it again on a nice chilly winters weekday when the faint of heart are snug in their beds or anytime with a group. staff was very friendly and facility was nice.
Goat Farm
The course was in horrible condition. My backyard has better grass than this course. I don't enjoy hitting off of dirt in the middle of the fairway. The fairways weren't green and had patches of dirt where there was no grass. The greens were inconsistent. One green would be slow and bumpy while another was fast. The greens should have been called browns or yellows. And that wasn't even the worst part. The bunkers were not made of sand. It was a mixture of diet and concrete. They were not groomed and still had dried up spots where water used to be. It was horrible. Can't believed they charged $38 dollars yo play there.
Entertaining Day
Had fun, but rain and windy conditions made the "quarry death march" just that.
Great Course!!!
I am impressed by the design of the course and many of the holes really are amazing. The hole #8 was my favorite.
Old Brickyard
This was a great course to play because of the unique challenge of each hole. The staff gave me a booklet to help me because it was my first time playing there and I was a single. I had a little confusion finding a couple of tee boxes but that was it. I will play here again.
good golf outing
The course was still in winter condition due to cold weather. With plenty of elevation changes and a windy day, club selection was important. We played 18 holes and found it to be a nice change from other courses in the area with plenty of slopes, rolling hills, sharp drop-offs, water hazards, thick brush lining the fairways, and plenty of tress. It's a very nice course and well worth the money.
The course is tuff
I always enjoy playing the Brickyard but the staff is rude.
Like meeting up with an old friend
If you are new to the Brickyard, or it has been a while, take a couple extra sleeves of balls. An all around tough challenging course, but especially number 10, should be par 7 I think, but I love it. Despite the lack of rain, and days on end of freezing temps, the warmer weather of the last week or so, had some of the greens actually beginning to green up. The pace of play was very slow, but then the Brickyard is not a course that is conducive to quick play, all the tee boxes for the most part are elevated, the hilly terrain makes for slow play, but the Brickyard is not meant to be a rushed experience. It is meant to be savored like a great filet mignon paired with a fine Cabernet...cannot wait to return once the spring temps and rains arrive and turn it all lush green. Staff was most excellent the steady 30 mph South wind made the challenge even more striking, but hey I broke a hundred and enjoyed myself with two old friends and made a new one, does not get much better than that. On a scale of 1 to 10 would have to give my day at the Brickyard a solid 9.5. I will be back you can count on that.
Hilly Terrain
Gas carts are essential playing this course. Lots of fun plus lots of probelms not knowing the course.
Good layout
This course has a fun layout that require good tee shots. Greens are always in good shape, the fairways have a lot of weeds in them but that's the only down fall. Over all a good course and should be played!
old brickyard
Very challenging course. Fun to play. The only negative is the greens were not overseeded.
A fun track
The fairways are packed hard. People drive all the way to the greens and I don't understand why it is not marshalled to prevent destroying the turf, but it's not mine. The ball will roll forever and sometimes into hazards, due to the hard turf.
Best Bang for the Buck South of Downtown Dallas
Played here again yesterday and still never get tired of it. Greens are always good with tight fairways which I love. Cruised around in 4 hours, and only waited on one group the entire round and I was playing as a single. I still think holes 8 thru 12 are the toughest stretch of holes anywhere in the metro-plex. I love the view of the Dallas skyline from #5 tee box and finally birdied # 10 after many tries for a personal best of 74 at this course. FYI senior rate is $25 bucks and there senior age starts at 50...YEA!!!!!....Will be back again after the Thanksgiving Holidays...
