About
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.

This course needs some work
Course was in rough shape. Greens were gone and had several temp greens in use. Lots of drainage problems as well.
Know what you are getting into
The best thing about this course was the Hot Deal at 11:30 on a Sunday for $35. However it was not with that. We knew as soon as we drove by it was going to be bad, but had no idea all Greeks have 1”of sand on them and putting was worthless. We quit after 14 because there was a group of regulars playing a par 3 tournament for the masters with random tea boxes. No way we were going to wait even 5 minutes. Better just to head home. Wish it was much better so we could play when down at Cedar Creek lake but too disappointed to go back.
Poor Condition
Greens are all almost dead or in really bad shape. Course was cart path only and we didn’t find out until after paying.
wasted day
front desk unfriendly, mumbled and could not understand him. No grass on fairways or greens. Very hardpacked A group of 5 slowed down whole course. Cart paths were crumbled up concrete in some areas. We played about 12 holes then left.
Water!
This course was fun to play albeit for a beginner was very challenging. The day we played the winds were gusty, but there was water everywhere. I deposited my fair share of balls in the water. Greens were very fast.
Lots of water
Greens are very fast and there is water everywhere. I shot a bad round, but it was mainly due to the wind today. There are restrooms located on each 9 that were clean enough for my wife to feel comfortable using. The front 9 is in better shape than the back 9 due to recent rains. Overall, I am looking forward to get back out there in the spring when everything greens up.
Overall experience
Course was in good shape, greens were fast but a good challenge.
Great time
This course has improved considerably, we enjoy playing here often.
Kings Creek, good to see course improvements
Course is under new management. Noticeable signs of improvement: the greens are much improved, fairways are in better condition than in the past.
THE COURSE IS CLOSED…
I have played this course for a long time.. .its a shame you don’t know how that.
Great course layout
Great course layout and there's more to come. The level of improvements are amazing to see. Staff is engaging and always helpful.
improved track
appreciate all the hard work done to get this course in shape
Interesting and enjoyable layout
Having never played this course, I understand the new owners have made great strides to get it back into playing condition. Kudos to them attempting this monumental task. The new direction is most present in the staff who are wholeheartedly trying to make this an enjoyable day . They are quite warm and welcoming in every respect. Having said that, there is a long road ahead to make this a destination course. The greens are quite bumpy and untrue, probably because the grass needs to grow in and develope. The cart paths are a wreck but fun to drive with tight turns and potholed/cracked sections that make it a 4 wheeling fun adventure. Enjoy the Disneyesque ride trying to keep on the narrow paths at full golf cart speed! Tee boxes are good with high weeds permeating the rough. There are plenty of lurking ponds and water hazards to keep you on your toes too! Tough terrain to tame indeed for reconstruction! Congrats for all of the improvements and I think they will achieve their goal based on the conviction and dedication I experienced. Do not pass up going to Slapping Good BBQ in Kemp afterwards. It's simply worth the drive with outstanding ribs, chopped brisket sandwiches, collards, pinto beans and great corn bread and deserts.
