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.

Course needs some work
Sand traps were in horrible condition. Course delayed for over an hour sure to the freezing dew on the ground. That could be listed in the course details, especially this time of year.
Sub Par course
One of those sad country golf courses that has too much work that needs to be done. I doubt the course will ever return to its hay days… for the amount of revenue the course generates, its probably not enough to fix it up. Kind of sad.

Fairways need to be cut shorter. Greens in decent shape. But need more work

Terrible Greens
Fairways are fine but the greens are terrible. Weeds growing in them on every hole. Worst thing is that the temporary green on hole 13 is the best green on the whole course. Not worth the money.

We appreciate you taking the time to leave us a review. We would love to know how we can earn those last two stars next time! Thanks for playing Kings Creek Golf Club.
Terrible
5 stars for being the worst course. The greens aren’t green. The fairways grass is so long you’d lose your ball in the middle of the fairway. The ground was so hard, there were visible cracks in the earth. Cart paths looked like they just barely survived an earthquake. No on-course refreshments. I honestly can’t think of a single reason why I would go back. Absolute trash.
Thank you for reviewing the course. Let us first start by apologizing for the poor experience you had during your visit. The current condition is by no means the standard we strive to achieve and are working diligently to improve the course. Thank you for playing Kings Creek Golf Club. We hope to see you again soon.
Needs some TLC
This course has potential but current it sits in rough shape. The layout is fun, utilizing the terrain really well, providing players with a variety of different shots. However, that where my positive experience stalls out. It is a small town course that doesn't get the TLC it needs and it shows. I know there was bad weather in the DFW area and most courses are struggling with their non-bentgrass greens, but it is like they aren't even trying. 16 of 18 are unputtable, so many bad spots and bumps, hard as concrete, just not fun to play on. Hopefully fixing them will be a priority. All the bunkers are ground under repair in my opinion and aren't playable. Another weird thing is how many of the fairways on the back nine are rutted and it makes for almost every shot to be a crazy uneven lie, it is so bad driving the carts on them isn't recommended.

Sloppy wet
I can understand the course being sloppy after rain, however the poor conditions of the greens and lack of upkeep on the fairways is really bad.
These are the worst greens in the area and the fairways need attention.

Please bear with us as we work diligently to make improvements. We hope you'll give us another try in the future. Thanks for choosing Kings Creek Country Club.
Awkward Staff
The clubhouse staff is rude. The front nine is decent. The back nine is horrible. No marshal keeping pace up either so you will wait on huge groups most days.

First time this year
My review reflects THIS particular visit. It was played less than two weeks after sub freezing temps and snow melt plus several inches of rain. It WAS dry enough to play, and they had obviously aerated the tee boxes and fairways.
It wasn’t in the best shape BUT I have played it in the past and it usually is!
It is generally in much better shape. We will continue to play here throughout the year.

We're Closed It's Cold
Myself and two friends drove from Dallas to Kemp, TX to play this course. We arrived at 7:00 AM and the course was closed. No one to be found. We looked and attempted to see if we could locate someone. We called and when we looked at the door tot he pro shop thee was a sing that said We are Closed, It's Cold. We drove back to Dallas and played a local course in Garland that was a much better course. With all of the modern day technology they could have told GolfNow something or added the information to a recording. Unacceptable was to run a business.
