Meadowbrook Municipal Golf Course
About
Eight years before he built Colonial Country Club, John Bredemus came to Fort Worth to build Meadowbrook Municipal Golf Course. The city bought the facility years later and brought Ralph Plummer in for renovations in 1962, when the creation of dams formed five new lakes and improved the irrigation system. No. 5 should probably be a par 5 for most hackers -- it plays 475 yards with water on the left of the dogleg, trees are on the right, and the approach must carry a creek. Don't worry about a bogey on this one. The 16th is another long par 4 that features an approach over water to the green. The two best birdie opportunities are nos. 7 and 14, both short par 4s that should leave you with only a short iron into the green.

Bad service and communication
Slow pace took us over 5 hours to finish. The whole time it was a bottle neck, it would take us so long to tee off. Staff did not inform us there was a tournament causing the bad experience.
This course is a gem among municipal courses
While meadowbrook is not a perfect course, it is one of the most enjoyable public courses I have played. The holes are reasonably straightforward and make the most of the natural terrain to add dimension to each hole. The only negative my threesome encountered was the cranky foursome behind us on the back nine. That is certainly not meadowbrook's fault even if as the cart girl put it, "Those guys think they own this course". Well fellas, as a resident of Fort Worth, I'm a co-owner as well and I say chill out and enjoy the beautiful course!
Good Layout
Course just needs some more grass to fill in on the fairways and greens. Many challenging holes and greens.
The course is nice and somewhat challenging!
Meadowbrook Golf Course is a nice course and rather challenging with several blind greens and a fair amount of water hazards. Beautiful trees and considerable amount of shade so it is pleasant even if it is rather warm temperature wise. We enjoyed our golfing day and will certainly be back!
Pro Shop Confrontation
The pro (Shawn) insist this course never sells rounds for $14.00. Wanted to charge me $24.00 for each. I would not pay the $10.00 difference for two players.
He insisted it must have been for another golf course and not this one. I did not enjoy this situation at all. Hopefully you can clear up this problem, especially since I found tee times for today at $15.00 on golf-now.com. I enjoy and trust golf now.com. I have used this web site many many times and have always been satisfied with your service and availability.
Love it!
Gotta love the value of this course. Staff is amazingly friendly and the holes are pretty challenging. Very hilly and tight greens. Its always a good time playing here.
Meadowbrook
This was my first time playing this course. I played with my cousin, and we paired up with two other men. It was also their first time to play the course. The course was in ok condition. Fairways were ok, and the greens were ok with a few of them having some blemishes. I enjoyed playing the course. It was challenging because of all the elevation changes, and the greens were hard to read. We played on a really windy day, which also made it tough, but I would like to play the course again.
This course is very challenging i play it alot.
This is always a challenging course, but fun to play. My friends & i play here 75% of the time and its always a blast. Ms. Tiffany and the staff are great people who do a great job at getting you on the course in a timely manner.
Hard & Fast Fairways
If you like hitting a ball that won't stop, then this is the course. It is winter, but I have played here in summer too and the ball just doesn't stop. The ground is way too hard. The greens are small and very fast. The 8th hole is an unfair green with the hole on the front, putting was impossible. Overall the pace of play was slow because there were some beginners in front of us. The course was a little worse than average for a winter course in Texas. There are a lot of places to get into trouble on the course and it seems like the fairways just feed to the sides and it is hard to stay on it even if hit down the middle in some areas. It is certainly a challenge due to course conditions. It is great course for elevation changes as we struggle for that here in Texas, lots of flat courses. Overall I still had fun, but I hate to include the round in my handicap as it wasn't realistic to what I would shoot.
fun and challenging course
This course has everything you can think of in a golf course, challenging in it's own way, but fun to play. You can't see most flag in any giving holes that's what make it fun. The slopes and elevations is awesome.
old school course
small greens, lots of trees. some very tough holes
Nice layout
I was excited to see that meadow brook was now on golf now. I used to play it years ago. The only draw back was the pace of play. We were a twosome and waited entirely too long at every tee.
