The Golf Club At Fossil Creek
Rating Snapshot
About
Designed by Arnold Palmer and Ed Seay, the links-style Golf Club at Fossil Creek was nominated by Golf Digest as one of the best new public golf courses in Texas when it opened in 1987, and has lived up to that advance billing since then. The course is scenic, with massive trees, limestone bluffs, bubbling creeks, and numerous lakes that bring water into play on 15 of 18 holes. The course boasts pretty rolling fairways and 18 testing holes all intertwined throughout streams created by Fossil Creek. It's surrounded by rocky-ledged creeks and crystal lakes.

Great course
Fossil Creek is one of my favorite courses in the DFW are. Great layout, very challenging and just a beautiful course. The remodeled clubhouse is AWSOME!
Fossil Week 3
Course in great shape! Greens rolling true. Golf carts need to be replaced. All of the carts had torn seats. I ended up paired with another group which was fine, their cart died on the 16th hole. At least get new seats and new batteries!
Nice course
course has a good layout. they are putting effort into getting the fairways in better shape. greens are in great shape.
Course in Great Shape!
Course in excellent condition. Greens rolled true. Fairways and tee boxes were plush.
Time to get new golf carts. All of them look worn out. Steering was bad and reverse gear did not work well.
A huge fan of Arnie’s
The course is beautiful and definitely a hidden gem. Small greens but generous fairways and some amazing views. Unfortunately the pro shop was bare with not many options for souvenirs of the occasion. Every cart had a torn seat and in need of repair. Beverage cart was the highlight of service along with the beach house at the 14th hole. Should have skipped the Clubhouse for an after round beer as the bartender was nowhere to be found! Rest in peace Arnie , your spirit lives on!!!
Absolutely beautiful!
10 outta 10! That’s it. Enough said
Never seen fairways in that condition. Looked like the Old Trafford in Manchester United! 👍👍🔥🔥
Great Track!
Always in great shape. The bunkers are being renovated at the time, and I played the worst round I have played all year. But that’s not goin to stop me from giving it a well deserved 5 star rating.
We really enjoyed Fossil Creek!
Played on Labor Dat at 11AM. Had a good round and thought the course was in really good shape. It looked like they were in the middle of redoing most of the bunkers, so we couldn't play some of our shots out of there.(I was fine with that :) ) We will be back for sure!
5+ hour round/great conditions
I play this course 1-2 times a month and the pace was gotten dramatically worse. Today was a 5+ hour round and not a Marshall in sight. It’s sad the course is in such great shape yet the pace is so horrid.
Not worth the $$$
First off both carts in our group were old and beat up!
Second all the sand bunkers were being redone with epoxy/rock and were unusable.
For the price it wasn’t worth it.
There should of been a discount for those for sure.
Not impressed at all!!
Great fairway grass
Course has bunker renovation going. Greens aerated with bladesseveral weeks ago and not fully healed. Grass sparse on some. Still no rain on that part of Fort Worth. 7/10 weekday round in 3.5 hours
New bunkers
Reconstructing all bunkers. Will be back when completed.
Excellent Course
I came here for my Birthday round of golf and had an absolute blast. 10/10 day
