Length 6608 yards
Slope 122
Rating 71.0

Formerly known as Arrowhead Country Club, Pinnacle opened in 1970 as a 9-hole track nestled on the cozy banks of Cedar Creek Lake. Tough times descended and the course was shut down before reopening with an additional nine and new ownership in the 1980s.

Dallas’ eastward growth has turned many onto the pleasant, rural atmosphere at Pinnacle Golf Club. Every hole is lined with trees and, despite its short length, the course is particularly tough because of the numerous dogleg fairways. Not counting the par 3s, 11 of 14 holes have doglegs. Because of the trees it’s recommended that you leave the driver in the bag.

The toughest hole is No. 15, a par 5 that goes 511 yards and offers a testy risk-reward decision. With a good drive into the wide-open fairway, going for it in two is possible by cutting the lake on the left side of the fairway.

Getting there : From Hwy. 175 east, find the town of Eustace and turn right on Hwy. 316. Drive. Turn right on Hwy. 316 and drive 5.5 miles to Clear Creek Rd. Turn right again and follow the signs to the course.

Challenging

Although I typically don't break 90 , I enjoy the challenge of the course. Course will surely punish you for errant shots and missed greens

First Time Playing

Crowded and I know why

We were third in line at our tee time. The course was challenging. As others stated, you need to have control over your shot to have a chance of not losing it in the trees. It was a prefect day and the course was in excellent condition. I will definitely be back.

Jones

Jones --- This course is short by most standard but tight and challenging to play - accuracy is vital for most holes but accurate shots usually give you chance to score well -- good course for both beginners and low handicap players - everyone should leave this course feeling good !!

Great day

On this day ,after a tournament, the course was in good shape. A few of the greens had repair areas, note to staff: place the hole locations away from the repair areas. A beautiful clear day, great temperature, what could be better.,my 82 score.☺️...

Hidden Gem -Amazing Value

Great course. Fairways and greens are in nearly perfect shape for this time of year. My only complaints would be that the tee boxes are shaggy and a little banged up and there is no beverage cart which is a bit of a problem because you don’t go by the pro shop/restaurant between holes 9 and 10 unless you know to go out of your way and come back to 10. Other than that the golf experience is pretty flawless. It’s a mini Augusta. Awesome track!

The best value course around

Always a great time playing this course. If it wasn't for the out of bounds being so close to the fairways on many of the holes I would have rated it EXCELLENT across the board!
