Duck Creek Golf Course

I had an early tee time and the pace of play was pretty good. The course is looking really good and I think the staff is doing a good job getting it back in shape. Although the greens were nice, some were bumpy and can probably be smoothed out in the future. Couple of greens did have some issues but that’s to be expected with a Course on the rebound. The staff was pleasant. It will be interesting to see if they will rebuild the clubhouse after the fire or keep the temporary mobile clubhouse permanent. Seems to be working right now.

I Iive in McKinney but I will drive 35 minutes to play duck creek it’s a cool layout perfect for me the staff is always nice so yeah I will continue to play there as long as I can. Sincerely Ralph Savois

Took 6 hours to play the 18 for starters. No one’s fault but the course. Too many people stacked up on top of each other. We were on first name basis with guys in front and behind us, because of how much time we hung out between holes. Few holes were 3 groups behind. Greens were pretty bad, tee boxes were pretty hard, no places to sit for walkers. I was sympathetic of their situation to accept their poor customer service for the price of golf, but now it’s extremely expensive. Never again

Enjoy the lovely cart key I got

Rude person at pro shop not friendly and condescending. Allowed a group of 7 play who showed up 30 mins after their tee time. Horrible pace of play and poorly managed course. 3rd time playing course and all have been bad this will be my last time playing at Duck Creek. Sadly the course is nice and the greens aren’t bad, just so poorly managed.

Overall absolute garbage. I never seen anything so trashy in my life. The only positive was the people working the hot dog stand in a ocean container

The Good:

The course is a bit of a jenky layout but its in better shape than it has been in a while. Greens are true, fairways are lush, tee boxes decent. The rough is long a d tough to find your ball but that's kinda your fault.

Oh and the carts are practically new. Nice!

Bad: The Clubhouse burnt down so the pro shop as it were is in trailer. There's also no on course cart beverage service.

The Ugly: There was maybe 20 cars in the parking lot and we weren't able to get our cart until 10 minutes before the tee time. Which is dumb (like Mesquite but worse) so you have to schlep your clubs to the range and putting green as well.

To.make matters worse, they sent off one group after another of just twosome so the course wasn't busy but still clogged up so pace of play suffered.

Also dumb.

Jenky course, nice condition, no facilities slow play and dumb policies...you get what you pay for!!

The good - the course was in decent shape for the price.

The bad - the staff in the pro shop was very unfriendly and frankly very rude. They had no carts. We teed off 45 minutes after our tee time. The pace of play was just around 3 hours for 9 holes. We left after 9, won't go back again.

Great value for this course. The clubhouse is being torn down and a new one being built so now has a temp clubhouse with limited amenities. Fairways were a bit rough but greens were in pretty good shape. Overall, an enjoyable round and would return..

Got there early (after checking the website to see if the range was closed) and was informed the range was in fact closed and I couldn’t even get my cart until 10 minutes before my tee time. Very frustrating that they don’t communicate range closures well and don’t care once you get there.

Unless you’re getting out early, I’d stay away. Don’t have enough carts for the tee times and you’ll have to wait 20-30 min after you’re registered tee time. Pretty annoying

The greens are horrible because instead of fixing them they just dumped a ton of sand on them! Course would be so good if the greens were fixed the way thirty are supposed to be

Acknowledging that it’s early April, I’d still say that course conditions were well below average. I’ll admit that I’m spoiled, as most of the golf I play is at courses with 4 or more stars; however, there was rough patches on almost all the fairways, weeds were sprouting all over the place, the water holes looked like swamps, and the greens were so dry and firm that many good shots just didn’t hold the green. Half way through the round, I joked that the entire course should be deemed ground under repair as all our lies were in the fairway but on hardpan! That said, other than the massive gap between the 9th and 10th holes, the course had a nice routing. I can see a map for a quality course that just isn’t there right now. I hope that things improve once they rebuild their clubhouse that caught fire last November.

Played my lowest game so far as a bad golfer. We had a lot of fun until we ran into an extremely slow pair that we couldn’t seem to get around. Club House burned down back last Thanksgiving. They need some more urgency to get that built back.
