From the tips, Kings Creek can play particularly tough because of the prevailing winds off the shores of Cedar Creek Lake. However, on calm days this course can be had, since the layout is fairly basic and features water on only six holes. In the late 1980s, the course became known for its improving condition, and that reputation has held true over the years.

The front nine is shorter and a little easier than the front, its toughest hole being the 200 -yard No. 3 over water. No. 14 typifies the longer back: a 576-yard marathon with water on either side of the fairway.

Getting there : From Dallas, take I-175 south, then turn right on Hwy. 274. The course is 2 miles down the road.

Great Day if Golf

Course wasn’t crowded which was a plus. I have been here several times when the pace the Marshall wanted you to play at was not reasonable. If you aren’t a member and want to play 18 holes get there at the earliest tee time possible or if you just want to play 9 getting there around 3:30 will work for you. Staff is always super nice. The course has a lot of water so bring a few extra balls. Overall it usually works out to be a good day.

Cracks in the fairway

The majority of the ground/fairway is cracked. You can stick about half your shaft into the ground. I hit the middle of the fairway off the tee and the ball ricocheted off a crack and into the rough.

They do have delicious hot dogs and a smoking room for those into that.

Play Winter Rules!

Well, greens were pretty bumpy. Fairways were fair for winter conditions. People were friendly and drinks were cold. Not bad for the price. It’ll get better soon I’m sure.

Stay away

The staff is friendly (except the pro) and the layout is good, but the greens are horrible. They don’t have a “Greens Keeper” and it really shows. The pro thinks he knows what needs done, but he is no Greens Keeper. There is more than mowing and watering but they are not doing anything else. What few bunkers they have are the worst around east Texas. I mentioned the greens and they took offense and fired back at me. They also have bad drainage problems and fairways are bad on 3-4 holes. They use the rain and flooding as an excuse but they don’t get any better when we are in a drought. Fire ants, bad greens and very rough tee boxes with some horrible fairways!! What more could you need to know?

Country Course

If your used to well groomed and smooth greens you will be disappointed. Very very rough fairways, balls bounce everywhere once they hit the hard ground, greens very bumpy. Won’t go back.
