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
Fossil Creek
The location is super easy to get in and out. Pace of play usually pretty good even on weekends and the layout is pretty fun for being in the middle of town. I never have a round that isn’t fun.
Great public course
I play here at least once a month. This course is is always in good shape considering how many rounds are played on it every week.
Hi Craig, thank you so much for your positive feedback! We're glad to hear that you enjoy playing at our course regularly. Our team works hard to maintain its condition despite the high number of rounds. We appreciate your support and look forward to seeing you again soon!
We’re thrilled to see you had a positive experience, u314164399023. Care to share any details?
Great course/be ready for 5 hours
Last few times we have played there, back 9 bogs down. Two/three groups waiting to tee off. It would be nice to have marshal speed up slower groups.
An Interesting Course
Fossil is one of my favorite courses in the Metroplex - one of only two Palmer designs.
The design follows the land contours - a little up and down, over a few creeks and around a lake.
#4 is a nice par 4 with plenty of trouble on the right and a forced carry into the green.
#11 teases you to carry the creek on your drive and then over the creek again into the green.
Nice mix of short par 4's and interesting par 5's.
The conditions are always good - generous fairways and well kept greens.
Decent
Greens were not in the best shape. Inconsistent speeds & a lot of debris (sand, rock, sticks) on the greens.
Nice course small greens
The course is challenging because of the postage stamp greens. Be ready for that; otherwise, it's in great shape but overpriced.

Great Course
Greens were not all that great, but they did show signs of being punched recently. Nice layout and definitely good value for your time and money

Great course
Course was fantastic but the greens were recently punched which was unfortunate.
Really glad you had a positive experience. Thanks for reviewing. Hope to see you again in the near future!
Good value and fun layout
Always a fun track and it's nice to see the course conditions shaping up. Greens are rolling well, fairways are in good shape, and most of the bunkers are well maintained. Very happy with the bounce back after winter and early spring. I'll be back again soon!
Hi jmacmorran, we’re thrilled to get this kind of feedback.Thank you for taking the time to review us. Hope to see you again in the near future!
Carts Are Embarrassingly Bad
Played Fossil Creek today and while the course was as nice as I remember it, the carts were in the worst shape I have ever seen on ANY course I have EVER played. They were in ridiculously bad shape. First, no coolers on any cart that we could see. Second, the windshield has been broken off the cart. In addition, the seats were torn with stuffing exposed and the drivers sand bottle holder had been broken off the cart. Finally, while driving over one the bridges, the plastic announcement holder broke, crashed down into the cart and cut my hand. Seriously, the WORST carts I have ever seen. Makes you wonder if they don’t care about keeping the cards maintained, how soon will it be before the course goes down.
u991323864, we are very sorry we did not meet your expectations. Our new carts will be arriving within the next 2 weeks. Hope you’ll give us another chance in the future.
Hi Craig, thank you so much for your kind words! We're thrilled to hear that you find our location convenient and enjoy the pace of play. It's great to know that you always have a fun round at our course. We appreciate your support and hope to see you again soon!
