Mesquite Golf Course
Rating Snapshot
About
Mesquite’s muni, located in the Duck Creek floodplain, was built in the 1960s by Leon Howard. Playing only 6,280 yards from the tips and void of bunkers, it makes for a fun day on the links. In fact, water comes into play only seven times–not as much as you might think for a floodplain course that has been ravaged by floods over the years.
The most challenging hole, No. 13, has water. It’s a 418-yard par 4 that doglegs right and features a tee shot over a creek, followed by a long approach to a tough, narrow green.
Other notes: Garrett Gill and George B. Williams redesigned this course.
Getting there : From I-30 east, take Northwest Hwy. for .5 mile to North Hwy. 67 and the course.

Better than most
We have a crew that plays at lease once a week all over the metroplex. Even though it has been around for a long time, Mesquite Golf Club was a pleasant surprise. Others in the area have been extremely dry, but the fairways were in good shape and the greens were excellent.
Great
Man, for February this course is in great condition.
Drainage problems everywhere
I do not recommend playing this course during the rainy season or designated Cart Path Only Days
Typical Mesquite Day
I was a a Typical Mesquite Day:
1. Course was wet from recent rains. It doesn't drain well. If it rains the day before don't play it, too much casual/standing water.
2. Greens are faster than most with lost of undulations. It's their signature and its a challenge to only putt 36 times in a round.
3. The layout is a bit funky. Weird doglegs, some odd layup situations. Its a target/shotmakers course, no room to spray it here.
4. The staff, Marshall etc. is what it is. They call it 'Real. Texas. Golf.' and if by that they mean being borderline unfriendly and hassling anyone playing over a 4 hour pace, then so be it. It's the #1 reason why I rarely play there.
5. They don't let you get your cart until 15 minutes before tee off, making the chipping green mostly useless since its a 100ish yard walk there...it's just inconvenient and not well set up.
Was on
Very slow pace and Marshall sitting there doing nothing but smoking.
Course was in winter conditions, some
Rough spots. Greens were ok… some spots. Rough needed a trim.
Good course!
Great bang for your buck. Greens are always rolling fast here!
Fast greens
I've never been disappointed playing this course. Greens are fantastic. Bunkers need to be serviced. Pace of play was under 4 hours as a foursome. Definitely worth checking out.
Nice course
Good late fall conditions. Greens pretty quick. Nice blend of easier holes with the more challenging. Pace of play good.
They don't let you have a cart until just before you start your round, even though plenty of carts were available. Minor annoyance, but I don't get it.
Beautiful greens
Overall the tee boxes and fairways were average for this time of year but the greens were immaculate. I enjoyed how much variation there was from hole to hole. I’ll be back for sure.
