Duck Creek Golf Course

I played it and fell in love with the way the course is laid out along with staff friendliness. I joined a week later and go up there throughout the week to hit balls and play golf. For the price of membership and all that comes with it is priced for value and fun, without breaking the bank.

Having given up my membership at Oakridge many years ago when the course started going downhill, it was a pleasant surprise to see it reopened by someone who wants to bring it up to speed. The tee boxes and fairways were a little rough and could use some water (bring your tee hammer!) but the greens were in much better condition than many of the other local courses. They could use a marshall out there to keep up the pace of play. I would suggest staying away from the hot dogs at the turn...overcooked and soggy with a roll twice the size required.

Goat ranch, cow pasture! I would say that this is the worst course in the dfw area. Tee boxes hard and looked like I was somewhere in a field. Fairways are the same with shorter weeds. Lots of bare dirt spots all over the course. I never take the time to review courses but the fact that I have this overwhelming feeling that I greatly over spend to play this place I felt obligated. At best they should charge 20 bucks for 8am Saturday tee time.

While the course is still not perfect by any means, it's certainly an improvement over the last time I played it (2 years ago). The greens are good, fairways are passable, and the layout is interesting enough to keep you coming back.

This course could be good with a bit more care given to specifically the tee boxes, there were weeds growing in half of the tee boxes. The pace when I played was outrageously slow. They allowed a pair of 5-some to play back to back on a Sunday afternoon and thus backing up the entire course.

Recently reopen course with potential for a local short tract.

The course recently reopened after it was idle for a few years due to the Country Club management running it into bankruptcy.

The layout of the course is very nice. One can tell that this was a CC course in the past. Fairways are well maintained, narrow and the greens were generally green and playable. Like any public course in Dallas, it needs rain. Some areas around the greens were just dirt. This is certainly not a walking course because the distances between some of the holes are furred apart (street crossings) and would slow down the pace of play to get to w/o a cart.

The course itself has bunkers, water, fairways that are separated by creeks, so it can be challenging. I shot a 107 which is right at my usual range of 103-106. Normally, I play Tenison Glen. For the current fees, one cannot go wrong with this course.

Pace of play was held up because of a larger group two holes ahead. Maybe this can be monitored a bit better going forward.

Facilities: they seem to have not been used in years. If management can get the traffic going on this course and generates the cash flow to invest in modernizing some of the interior, this could be a sparkling place.

All in all, the course has great potential once the money is flowing and upgrades can be made. Keep it up.

Good price for a round of golf with cart, no doubt, But I wouldn't pay a penny more at this point. Maybe they aren't finished updating it yet...there's plenty that still needs to be improved! The greens were okay..some where bumpy and sandy, and fairways were decent as long as you can keep your ball in play and land on them...not very forgiving otherwise. Finding the next hole and the tee boxes were extremely confusing, which seemed to be the same for other golfers, too...it was almost comical! Which, slowed play down and had golfers coming into each other's fairways. (PS they weren't female drivers). At several holes we had no idea where the green was, and tee boxes were poorly marked...one hole didn't even have a women's tee box marked and it was a Par 4. There are only a couple of sand hazards, but SEVERAL water (creek) hazards. On a positive note, The pro shop staff was extremely friendly and provided great service. If you are a beginner, this is course is good for fun but difficult...bring lots of balls! If you like a super challenging course and don't want to pay high green fees...try it, you might like it...you can't beat the $15 price, that is 4-sure!! Me, I am an average golfer but definitely prefer a more well laid -out, maintained course. I had a great time playing with my sister .. that made the day! I'll bring play the course again while the fees are unbeatable, but when the prices go up, I save my money for a more organized course.

The last time I played this course it was under different management and the course was in sad shape. The present was a pleasant surprise and I enjoyed my round after being away from the game for six months after shoulder surgery.

Just keep grooming the course and you will have a winner!

These $10 deals cannot be beat. Short course but challenging.

Like this course but took >5 hours to finish 18 holes
Need a marshal to encourage slow players keeping the pace of play up
Hole 18 is very special for par 4

The course was in good shape for this time of year. The greens were extremely slow - it took a few holes to get the (lack of) speed down. I found this a very forgiving course - perfect for a "Friday Funday" with friends!
There are a few bare dirt spots off the fairway, especially under trees, but that is to be expected. No one seemed to be filling in their divots on the fairways though, I ran out of sand on the front 9 doing that while waiting.
The only issue I had was they paired 2 twosomes ahead of us. The guys teed off together, then played out their shots separately, which made for a long round until 2 quit at the turn. Then we realized the now twosome in front of us was SHARING a set of clubs. We waited on almost every shot. It seemed like forever, but it was just under a 4.5 hour round.
That being said, the re-opening rate ($15 w/cart!) can't be beat. The pro shop said the special is running through 5/23.

There is no warden so things are extremely slow. Was about 5 hours for 18 holes. Other than that it's not a bad course for its price. The golfers are pretty nice, but since the holes are bunched together you will find people from other holes hitting their errant shots off the fairway of another hole.

Great overall course for Mid Handicapper. I shoot in the low 90s and can see it be a bit difficult for a weekend warrior.. Greens are fairly small and challenging. No Marshall out there so driving your cart is basically up too the hole .. Please follow golf etiquette. It seem like it was a great country club at one time but for the $15 cart and fee can't beat it.

The staff is very friendly, and you can see that they're trying to upgrade this course, but it still has a long way to go. Fairways are growing in, greens aren't bad, but the general conditions (tee boxes, signage, short rough) are pretty shabby, especially for the price. Any of the Dallas muni's are a MUCH better deal than Duck Creek. I won't go back, and would not recommend it to anybody, at least not until they clean it up.

would play again and would recommend to others to play also. staff was very friendly and enjoyable

Beautiful course. The greens and tee boxes need some time to get into good condition, but I believe it is because they just re-opened after being closed for several years. You feel like your playing a classic US Open style lay-out that demands precise shot making. Bring some extra golf balls because there is water on 14 holes. The value is tremendous for a round after work.

needs ball cleaner, better signage for course direction,, greens too fast

People think paying $40 per round they should be playing at Augusta. From where the golf course was 6 months ago to where it is today is a complete 180. Granted the greens are still slow, but run a true as any in the Metroplex.
I would suggest playing here while the prices are still cheap and not so crowed, because once word gets out and the greens start to come in, this place will be jammed packed.

Decent course greens need work. Could help if there were more yardage markers. The hot deal price is On the mark but wouldn't pay more.
