Coyote Ridge Golf Club, opened in 1999, features some unusual holes that traverse a variety of unique terrain. Each nine is strikingly different -- the front plays through a burgeoning residential community, is generally wide open and void of trees, and takes on the characteristics of a links-style course.

Water comes into play six times on the front, including the extremely difficult ninth hole, which doglegs left around a lake that stretches all the way around the green. Survive the tee shot by bailing right if you have to, but consider laying up on the approach since the water bends all the way around and surrounds the green on three sides. You’ll still have the chance for an up-and-down par, and playing for bogey is much better that rolling into the turn after a double-digit disaster.

Also on the front, No. 7 is a fun par 3 because of the 70-foot drop in elevation. The tee shot goes 165 yards over water into a very wide, challenging green.

Coyote Ridge Golf Club's back nine rolls through an abandoned rock quarry along the Trinity River, featuring more trees and elevation changes.

Love this course but marshall's don't do their job

I have played here many times and will return. It is a pretty course with challenging holes, especially the par 3's. The staff in the grill area are excellent and the food is tasty and well prepared.

However, right off the 1st tee, a group of 5 females teed off in front of our twosome. We waited on EVERY hole and they never let us through. We knew that one of the women is the spouse of the course owner. On hole 4 the marshall drove by us as we waited on the tee and said, "I know it's a long day playing behind the ladies" and he just kept driving. Then on the 9th hole tee box, he came back to us and told us that we should try to press them on 10 and 11 and "crowd" them. I told him I thought that was his job, to control pace of play. He looked at us and laughed and went about his business. What the in the world??

So if you see a large group of women teeing off in front of you, go ahead and skip a hole or just see if you can start your tee time later to save yourself considerable aggravation.

Stolen Range Finder

My range finder was stolen off my bag which was on my cart near the club house. I am 100% sure I had it before I got to the course, I went to hit some balls on the range, came back to my cart and somebody took it off my bag. I asked the cart guy outside and a guy inside if they had seen anything both were no help. I noticed there are cameras everywhere surrounding the clubhouse but I guess that wouldn't be an option to review? I would really like something done about this, I shouldn't have to worry about people stealing from my bag while it is on my cart in next to your clubhouse. VERY DISAPPOINTING!

Coyote Ridge has been in contact with me and made the situation right. I really enjoy the course and have always enjoyed playing out there. I hope my 1 bad experience does not effect others from playing there.

Greens are back

Greens were in good shape compared to the past. I wrote off coyote ridge last year because the course was in poor condition. I was pleased to see the course has come back. It will be interesting to see how things are after the brutal summer heat.

Always have fun playing this course

I play here often, if it was closer to home, it would be my home course. The course is fairly easy with a few challenging holes. The course staff has always been great. I'll play her over and over again.

Difficult, Great Course

This was my first time playing this course and unfortunately it was CPO. As someone new to Dallas, I was looking for a sub-$60 round at a course with good tee boxes, fairways and greens that roll quickly.

This course achieved two of those criteria easily, however the greens were somewhat slow. They were probably rolling 8 on the stimp (It had rained that day and the greens were quite soft.) For the average golfer, this would be fine, but this course certainly demands more than average golf in order to succeed.

I myself am around a scratch golfer, and I was playing with a friend who was new to golf. This is not exactly the place to bring someone new to the game. There are blind tee shots, forced carries, and lots of water hazards to avoid. For example, the third hole from tips played around 270ish to a back pin. I somehow put it close with a 3 wood and made par. My partner was not so lucky... This is just one example, but I found myself forced to play precise shots on seemingly every tee shot in order to simply locate my ball for the next shot. On the bright side, these difficult shots provide for some great views.

For the advanced player, do not hesitate to come out here and test your skills. You will be tested. The back tees play to a 75+ rating, and it is for good reason. If you are less than advanced, be sure to tee it forward to enjoy the day without losing a dozen golf balls.

All in all, the value for money is great, and I will certainly be back for a round when it is not cart path only.

Beautiful course, a best in DFW

Great course in excellent shape. Alot of elevation change, especially for Dallas. Layout is a little funny with a couple good drives between green and tee, but 9 comes back to the clubhouse which is always nice.

Super Nice Public course!

My wife and I really enjoyed our first time playing here. Course was challenging and in really good shape. Greens were a little slow, but true. Only complaint was pace of play. As with some courses around DFW, no marshal or starter. Too many singles and twosomes trying to play behind foursomes, plus the guys playing from the tips that don't have the skills to do so.

Overall, it was a good experience!

Perfect pace of play

We played 18 at 3:40 in 3 hours and 10 minutes. Greens were a bit bumpy as they were punched a while ago but course and bunkers were great. Had cart service and bar/ restaurant is top notch as is pro shop. Range balls included is nice. My favorite course in the area.
