About

Holes 18
Type Public
Par 72
Length 7191 yards
Slope 133
Rating 74.5

Rowlett’s first course has been laid out over a flat range of pasture, supplemented by 15 acres of lakes and over 1,000 new trees. Designed to be hacker friendly, the lack of mature trees provide an especially generous look and feel, tempting the mid-level handicapper to tee it up from the 7,191 yard tips and go long off the tee. Bent greens are the highlight of the round here–they roll true and provide solid opportunities to snake in a few long putts.

Getting there : Off of I-30 exit Dalrock Rd. and drive north through Hwy. 66. A half-mile past 66 veer left on Princeton, which dead-ends at Liberty Grove. Turn right into the Waterview division and take Waterview Pkwy. to the clubhouse

Course needs work

The green sleeping staff needs to step up their game. Most of the damage on the course was caused by the staff driving equipment of a wet course.

Great Place to Play

Even inspite of the heavy rains in the days leading up to our round, the was in good shape. The greens were excellent but most of the fairways were fairly wet, but again that was to be expected. Overall, even though it was cartpath only, it was a good round and a great place to play.

Dry and Hard

Dry and hard pan fairway. Many times, couldn't use driver since ball runs forever. Obviously greens are hard too and won't accept balls. I don't have ball spin rate of tour pros. It looks like they decided to not water the course much.

Dry and hard

Very dry throughout the course. Ball runs forever. You don’t really need driver even for 400 yard par 4s. Greens don’t accept the balls. The whole course is so dry and hard that the riding cart was pretty bumpy. Price was low. So it could be a good course for practice round.

Course is in good shape. Pace of play was great. It’s not the most difficult course but it’s a really fun course. Only complaint is that some trees had been trimmed and some cut down about a month ago. Some of the piles of branches were still on the course.

Very nice course, but the greens could use a little more watering. They seemed very hard and dry. Other than that it's a fun course.
