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

Good Value

Would be worth $50-$60 if it weren’t for the amount of leaves across the rough, fairways, and even greens. Lost at least 3-4 balls because they were probably under one of the millions of leaves covering the course. Great course if you don’t mind the amount of leaves though

Cart were an issue

Course was in good shape and nice easy layout. Only issue I had is there was a golf cart shortage and tee time delayed 20 mins waiting for folks to complete their round to free up carts. Staff wasn’t too friendly or apologetic.

Bumpy Greens

I always enjoy playing this course and will continue to play it. The greens have healed nicely since they were redone a while ago, but they’re a little bumpy. You can see from looking at the side they aren’t smooth. Maybe they need to be rolled, but some close putts are hard to make because the ball could move right or left even though it’s a straight putt.

Unfriendly staff

Not the best way to start a round to have to deal with grumpy staff.

Maybe he was having a bad day but shouldn’t take it out on customers.

The course was in good condition.

The fairways could use a little watering as the turf was drying up.

Greens were fast and hard.

Top tier public course

I’ve played most of the courses between Richardson North to Gunter. They’ve done a great job grooming this course. It has a great layout, undulation on greens, some elevation changes and really made it a fun round. Can’t wait to play again.

Enjoy playing Waterview

Started playing Waterview about two months ago, have played 4 times since. Really enjoying the course. Fridge around some greens are very wet, but fairways, bunkers, and greens play good. Will be playing there again....

First group a fivesome--grrrrr

What course lets the first group out be a fivesome and slow the day down to crawl? This course. Then to top it off the guys were rude and wouldn't let the three in my group through. We ended up skipping a hole.
