The Golf Club At Fossil Creek
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.

Golfer Reviews
Early Freeze Delayed My 1:23PM Start
Due to early freeze conditions, my 1:23 pm start time did not occur until 2:00pm. The golf course was packed; thus we had very slow play. We got in 14 holes before darkness ended our play. I can't fault the course for the weather. However, I would like a twilight comp round for at least 9-holes.

Greens were very fast, fairways were in good shape.
On course cart beverages are quite pricey.
Overall a moderate value.
Excellent day on the course
This is one of my favorite courses in the Dallas/Ft.Worth area. It is always in great condition and the staff is always courteous.

Always challenging
The course was in pretty good shape. I do not really have any complaints other than the two guys in the pro shop spent the entire time chatting with each other the entire time. I told them my reservation time and last name maybe 4 times before they got me checked in on the tee sheet. They seemed irritated to have me there, and I felt they were ready for me to leave.
Great course. A must play in the area.
The weather was not good.....cold, and breezy (not a good combo for a Florida guy).....The course is great, overseeded...so looks real good for the time of year....Greens are quick and true!...good layout. You can score well on this course if you are hitting it good, if not.....could play a little tough..worth the price.
Mislead delays
Poor managed caused delays; could not finish. Even after 4 1/2 hrs!
Course OVERATED.
Great Day at Fossil Creek
I've had chances to play Fossil Creek a couple times in the past 25 years...what a treat. This time my 12 year old grandson was my partner and we had a ball. It was cool and cloudy, but we had our cart cover and heater and had a great day, the fivesome in front of us let us thru on the second hole and we had the course all to ourselves. There are so many great golf shots on this course. The greens are spectacular and we had yet another great day at Fossil Creek.
Outstanding course
Word to the wise....if you cannot get the ball in the air or you are not a good putter you may be in for a long and costly day. Hands down this course will not disappoint you. Just wish the carts were more forgiving..........you'll see.
Awesome
Always in great shape. Fun to play great service smoking hot cart girls
Greens fast but true
Fossil is always in good condition. Greens are normally fast but roll true.
Great Golf Course!
I play this course at least twice a week and, as always, it's in great condition! Someone forgot to tell the fairways and greens that it's nearly December! My ONLY complaint about this golf course is it's tendency to back up. 6, 7, and 8 are where the backups begin and can make for a long round. On course management could be so much better in relation to pace of play. Other than that, it's one of my favorites!
Awesome course.
Excellent course ! Would recommend to everyone to play. Great greens and very nice layout.
One of my favorites
I love this course. It makes you think about your shot and not just swing away. Greens are in excellent shape and quick. Fairways are good. You have to play this course it'll make you come back for more.
Difficult Golfers but good staff and course
The course appeared to be in good shape, the greens were real fast (good for the soft touch putter) and fairways were clear of debris with very little divots (amount wise). A couple tee boxes were chewed up, but mostly because of golfers. The biggest problem we had was with golfers on the course. We were behind a couple of guys hitting very slow and not letting us pass, and then we had a couple skip a hole to get in front of us so that they could each hit two balls. Yikes, when playing twilight, I like to play ready golf, and get the round done before sundown, but was unable to because of these people. Hey course marshall....where were you? You didn't come out until it started to get dark to kick everyone off. Ugh.
Extremely Slow
This round may be my last at Fossil Creek....it was the second 5 plus hour round at this course. Granted it was cart-path only...but groups wouldn't allow quicker groups to play through & the Marshall wasn't much help....actually none. There're better courses for the money that'll allow you to complete a round of golf without committing to an all day affair.
The course was in fair shape.. Great fairways...sand traps were pretty decent thought they could use a raking. The greens were terribly hard & extremely fast, not mention they were quite small as if they had stopped mowing about 1/4 of the green. Overall, if you could play for $20-$30, I'd say good deal but other than that, I'll pass.
Great day
Cart path rule on a dry, beautiful day made for very very slow round. Course in good shape and quite challenging.
