In the Middle

Not great but not bad. I always enjoy the layout of this course, it’s gorgeous and at this time of year easy to walk. Everything is great about this course, but where it lacks is the greens. They are rough. Your ball wont stop bouncing until it gets to the hole. People aren’t fixing their ball marks on the green. It’s patchy as well. I feel that I’ve summed up the greens well. Overall it’s always a fun place to play with friends and family.

Great staff, very accommodating. Some of best Bar-B-Q in Texas. Greens in pretty good shape for winter.

Becoming my favorite weekend spot

This course is awesome. 3 different 9-hole tracks ensure that you don’t end up playing a 5 hour round. Great pace both times I’ve played it.

Tee boxes are in great shape and there are some really cool holes by the water. Can’t beat it for $35 on a weekend.

Overpriced Muni course

$50 is way way too much for this course

Then they charge extra for range balls to gig the player

Great practice areas and love that it is 27 holes so there is a different 9 most of the time

However first time I played this course two years prior it was half the price

$50 is out of line

No cart girl, or water jugs and bathrooms in reasonable places would be nice

Was part of a group

Definitely won’t play there again for $50

Maybe $30

Dormant fairways

Tees were nice. Fairways were brown and hard,l; must have been he to the winter season. Greens were sprayed. Some were fast, some were slow and bumpy

Great value, but could be even better with a couple of tweaks

We've played Prairie Lakes as often as anywhere this fall / winter. For a course in this value range, it's a nice setup with 3 9-hole sections that are rotated based on the day / time of your tee time. Each of the 9-hole courses (Red, White, and Blue) have their own layouts / challenges. Red is the most open with the least amount of trees and water. White has the most water, followed by Blue. Blue has by far the most trees.

With a little TLC and some tweaks to how the course schedules groups, this place would be not only a value leader, but a stellar facility. Too often they allow players in groups of 5 and / or walkers during the busiest times of the day. If those walkers were all competitive high school golfers, it wouldn't be bad, but a recreational golfer whose handicap is over 25 should not be allowed to walk during a Saturday or Sunday prime-time round.

My favorite course

Been my "home course" for over 30 years. Played a number of other local courses, this is my favorite.

Only thing some golfers won't like is there are NO sand traps. No issue there for me. But it would be nice if they added some .

First Time Playing

Pretty Good Muni

First time playing Prairie Lakes. Played with some fun guys that both knew the course. Fairways were dormant, but pretty quick. The ball ran out well. Greens were receptive. Seemed like a lot of people failed to fix there ball marks??! Speed was not overly quick, but I struggled to read them because, they too were mostly dormant.We played Blue/White. Seemed like every Par 3 was overwater and playing about 180-190 yards into the wind?? There’s a reason they call it Prairie Lakes, but most of the water was pretty apparent; no hidden hazards that were actually in play(unless you were trying to hit the short Par 4s from the box). I’ll definitely go back. It reminded me of Grapevine Muni, and that’s a compliment. And the Pro Shop had a “Special” on ProVs; $40/dozen(normally $59!). Have fun! Play well!

Winter in Texas

Arrived early and had lunch at Eddlemon’s. Probably the best BBQ that I’ve had in the DFW metro. Order the brisket sandwich, you won’t be sorry.

Always enjoy this place every time I’ve played here. Yes, this is winter in Texas. The course was in great shape and the greens rolled true. One of the great things about Prairie Lakes is that it offers 27 holes. Pace of play is exceptional. This place is becoming one of my favorites.
