Rusted Rail Golf Course, located about half hour or so southeast of Dallas, has a new name and a new look. Formerly known as Creekview Golf Course, the facility was purchased in July 2017, then renamed and renovated. Reopened in August 2018, Rusted Rail unveiled what is essentially a new golf course with renovations on its 36 bunkers, new Champion Bermuda greens, a new irrigation system and vastly improved conditions, including new cart paths and restroom facilities. Designed by Dick Phelps in 1995, the course can play from around 5,800 yards to more than 7,200 yards. The layout features mature oaks lining many of the holes with elevated greens and mounding. The course also has a stream running through the middle of it as well as ponds that come into play on about a half dozen holes. Additionally, the clubhouse has been completely remodeled and expanded to around 17,000 square feet.

What a surprise

I was surprised how the course was in great shape. The fairway seem to be water or rained on which made play even better. It been a while since I taken a divot. Most courses condition are hard and dry. The layout was somewhat challenging like hole#2. The green where just a bit slow. Not so bad to really complain. The ladies up front at checkin were nice and friendly (Go Girl Power). Overall I was impressed and plan on playing again.

Greens are fast

Played a fun round on this course. Not too challenging, but enjoyable. The fairways are still in winter condition, but the greens were in great shape and were fast.

Just average

Course conditions were not great which was surprising considering there are mostly positive reviews on the course. We drove an hour to play here expecting great things. Probably wouldn’t return, even in the summer.

Lost better

I use to golf at this course when it was under another name and management. The course back then was terrible but used it to better my game. When you can play well on a bad course you will play better on a some what decent course.

Great time.

Went to Dallas from San Antonio to visit son and play some golf. I picked this course be cause it was out of the metropolitan area and had good reviews and pricing. We loved our time there. Loved the layout. Very forgiving but still had to play good shots to score well which we did. Will play the tips next time. Yes next time because it was fun. Great condition and could be a very special course once they do some upgrades. All in all a fun course.

Greatly improved

The course was in very good condition. From what I can tell they have made a ton of improvements. Tee boxes Andy fairways were in great shape, the bunkers were raked and fluffy. A couple greens were a bit rough, but not terrible. You can tell the new owners are really trying improve this course I’ll definitely be back.
