Rusted Rail Golf Club
About
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.

Great round with friends!
Played with my Son-in-law and a Missionary friend from Thailand. Enjoyed the fellowship and had a decent score in the 70's. First time in a long time.
Greens were in great shape. In a couple of weeks should be in excellent condition. Fairways need attention.
Creekview
Good day went well. The course is getting better for anyone who played it in the past. Still a ways to go but they are headed in the right direction .
Great Value for Casual Golfer
My son and I play this course a couple of times a month. It is a little rough and needs some work, but a good challenge and the local players are pretty laid back. You will see a lot of blue jeans and tennis shoes on the course, but everybody is polite and courteous. The facilities include a driving range and putting/chipping greens.
Course friendly
My golf buddy & I had a great time at Countryview!
We come here frequently and never complain of the course conditions. We recently visited Tenison (overpriced & overrated) and my friend said hes coming back here. From the service desk to at your service mobile concession, the people were super friendly!
Not Consistent Conditions
Some areas were dry others wet. The greens were not consistent but I have played many that were worse.
nice greens
the greens are in good shape. The bunkers are awful. The fairways are not good.
Better!!
if you have stopped playing this course over the last two years like i have then its worth it to give it another shot. The greens are back to the way they were 6-7 years ago. they turn brown but are smooth and quick. greens as well as fairways were not dried out anymore either. in fact i regularly had to clean my ball from the greens and even from the fairway off my tee shots. Its worth it to get back out there.
Best greens in Dallas area.
Our group had a great time playing Creekview GC for the first time. The course is a great test of golf. The staff are very friendly and could not have made me more welcome. WeI played with 2 great guys who play the course often. My wife really enjoyed riding in the cart for the 18 holes and enjoying the nature, lakes and wildlife. Greens are the best Iv played in the Dallas area. Play this course if you get the chance
great course great value
For $30 bucks you really can't get much better. the greens are really well kept and fast.
This is a challenging course for an intermediate or avid golfer with good greens and a thinking layout. highly recommend it for any level. Also Beautiful scenery.
Great value for the Money
The course being 50 miles from my BlackBerry, I won't play there often, but you can't beat the price. $16 for 18 holes including a cart. Normally cart fees are $15 alone at Dallas Golf courses. The fairways were relatively good, occasionally you hit a brown patch but the greens are a beauty. The greens play somewhat on the fast side and the ball breaks very closely to the read of the green. The course has some nice par 5s over 500 yards and a few shorter par 3s between 130 and 180 yards (white tees). We were able to finish the first 9 in about 90 minutes and the whole course in a bit more than 3 1/2 hours.
Course was in bad shape
This course is very poorly maintained. During our entire round we did not see a single grounds person working to improve the poor condition of the course, fairways and traps.
Staff
The staff is awesome and they made me feel very welcomed.
Interesting layout
Sandy really likes it since she beat me up pretty bad,
I found it to be a nice test and a fun course to play .If you are looking for a highly watered ,pristine course you will be disappointed fairways are not watered or taken care of.
if you are looking to play golf you should have a good time.
didn't know what to expect
its a country course. its Crandall. only paid 14$. you can't beat it for the price. the greens were in really nice shape. the girl working yesterday makes a really good turkey and ham sandwich. i'll be back!
You Get What You Pay For
Pros:
-fast play
-cheap rates
Cons:
-rock hard fairways and rough
-cement sand traps
-hard to find grass to hit off of
-watch where you step, there was dog feces everywhere, even on the fairways.
Overall:
This course would benefit heavily from an irrigation system, a groundskeeper who cared and some serious TLC.
Getting better
Great course layout, greens in much better shape than last year, when fairways grow in course will be 4 stars, staff as always very friendly and helpful.
Hey, this looks like a great place for a golf course
Love the layout , people friendly,pace of play good, have seen this place when i would call it 4 star instead of a shaky three star. reason is the course itself ,hardly any grass on the fairways--various forms of vegatation yes and plenty of fire ants but little quality turfgrass. surprisingly no matter how bad looking they get (they usually lose at least two greens every summer-understandable when they were bent but now bermuda) the greens usually roll great. price and pace of play good and layout really neat. needs better groundskeeping and watering in the summer months .
The course was a good price for the money.
Course was average shape for this time of the year, but a good value for the price. Lots of walkers so make sure to gauge your time.
