About
Highly touted Buffalo Creek has been praised for its layout, condition, and overall attention to detail. No matter who you talk to in the DFW area, they all seem to praise the superb condition of the course from tee to green. Offering a 7,078-yard par 71 Jay Morrish/Tom Weiskopf design, Buffalo Creek offers a good combination of holes: straight holes, dogleggers, uphill and downhill shots, and both long and short holes.
One of the best features is the club’s method of using a pin location sheet to mark exactly where each pin is located on a particular day (up to six locations), which is unbelievably helpful to hacks who’ve never played the course before and have no feel for the look and contour of the greens.
Getting there : Take I-30 east from Dallas and exit Ridge Rd. Turn right and find the course 1.6 miles down on the left.

Excellent Golf Course!
Wow, what a fun course! For this time of year course was in great shape. Lots of grass in the fairways, and greens were rolling quick and true. This is kind of a hidden gem for me. It will be in spectacular shape in about 3-5 weeks with some rain.
Nice overall
Good layout, a few challenging holes where course knowledge is a must, but nothing gimmicky. Greens definitely need to improve but the regulars that I played with spoke favorably about the course owners' commitment and progress so far.
Fun Course
The course was in solid shape given the winter conditions. Greens rolled nice and the fairways were in good shape. The layout isn’t overly penalizing, but there are a few long par fours.
Great course
I really like all the changes to the tee boxes, sand traps and greens.
Will Definitely Be Back!
This is a nice course, the 1 handicap hole was definitely the hardest hole and the 5’s, though there’s only 3, were challenging, but not impossible to conquer. I really enjoyed this course and will be back soon.
