Course was gorgeous, challenging and awesome views. However, I am here on vacation. Wanted to play alone, and they wouldnt let me. I can understand its Saturday and youre busy but tell me that on the phone, Id have gone elsewhere. And since I preffered not to ride with someone I did not know (that they forced me to play with) they charged me $20 for riding by myself. The fact I wasnt told this ahead of time is real bs. Last, I asked ahead of time what their rate of play is on a busy Saturday. I was told its 4.5 hrs. I had to leave after the 14th hole, 5 hours 10 mins into the round bc of a previous scheduled engagement. A couple groups ahead of us left too. Based on the rate of play, it would have taken a minimum of 35-40 more mins to finish. If I was just rating the course, it would be a 5 star, but the staff and protocol on the course dont deserve stars. A real disappointment for sure.

The title pretty much says it all. The PDP says you get unlimited range balls, reduced price on golf and free clinics. You do get unlimited range balls (if the range is open) and you do get reduced fees on twilight...but you cant finish before dark most nights and they do hold clinics but the one hour clinic turns into 40 minutes and they help anyone, not just the PDP payers. I cancelled PDP today and the guy behind the counter just slapped the paper down and rudely said sign. They arent interested in keeping my business and Im not interested in giving it to them any more. I did express my concerns in a voice mail to the GM (Mark P.) but he never returned my call or the subsequent e-mail. Oh, and it is extremely slow...not just kind of slow like the other reviews. Plan on 5:00 plus per round...longer on the weekends.

I live at the Apartments right across from this golf course. Ive lived here for 2 years. EVERY day golfers are hitting golf balls in my yard and my cars out front, along with other cars in the middle of the complex. Now, the so called "golfers" should learn to play before taking up the sport. Maybe lay off the booze a little bit as well. I mean youre either very very horrible at golf or youre drunk...to be hitting balls CLEARLY in the wrong direction!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I shouldnt have to worry about my child or my dog playing in my backyard or worried about the dents my car is getting EVERYDAY!!!!!! Ive called and left messages with this golf course. My aptartment management has left messages as well. Get these losers off the course NOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Decent course. In winter they are one of the few around that have green fairways overseeded with rye. Has some fun neat holes and a few that are quite boring without much risk reward. Wish they could clean up some of the trash and waterway areas. Makes a few of the plain holes look really dumpy. Greens are usually really nice and true. You can find decent deals but usually the time restrictions for those mean very slow rounds. Typically in the afternoon the course gets really bogged down to a snails pace. If you play before noon it is quite pricey but a lot less people. For the full rack rate price you can play at a few other places with more value. Clubhouse and bar area is nice at Fossil Creek.

This golf course is a hidden treasure. An Arnold Palmer design, its easy on the eyes, easy on the pocketbook. Friendly staff, good pace of play. Lady golfers are appreciated here with 2 for 1 ladies every day, and gentle distances for women. GPS on well maintained golf carts makes the experience that much better. The course is immaculately groomed. Theres actually white sand in the sand traps!! Theres always a beverage cart somewhere nearby. Theres a convenient snack bar that you pass twice and they are always grilling something tasty, try the jalapeño sausage sandwich. The location is convenient for anyone who lives on the Fort Worth side of DFW. Im a huge fan of this course.

This is a very nice course, always in very good shape. Challenging and fun. Staff is friendly and food is pretty good, too. Only thing keeping this from a 5 star rating is the pace of play. If you want to hope for a 4-4.5 hour round you need to tee off as early as possible. Despite all the talk about "ready golf" the course doesnt do much about enforcing it. They allow groups of 5 or 6 to go out. Members regularly just jump out on the course from their homes slowing down play. It takes more than talk and some videos on the GPS screen to maintain good pace! I still recommend the course, just be aware that a slow round is a definite possibility.

I love the golf course, but this review is based on the monthly membership program they have. I went in and personally canceled my membership and they have continued to bill me. I have called up there 3-4 times once speaking with with new general manager who told me he would look into the issue and call me back. Im still waiting on that call as I have left a voice mail message for him and a message through another worker up there and have still not heard anything. I will go up there personally today so I hope he is working.

If I could give the staff a ZERO I would. Their attitude is that you are lucky they let you play there and not that you are a customer to be honored. With all of the courses in the DFW area why play at a course where the employees dont care about the customer? The fact that we paid $34 for a prime tee time tells me others feel the same way. The course is good and well maintained and the grounds crew is obviously professional and cares about their job.

This is the second time in a row that I have had issues with the beverage cart staff. They will close your tab out with tip if they leave work early and you are still on the course. All without telling you. And yesterday, one girl refused cash payment because she would only get a 50 cents tip off a water, peanut and sandwich. She requested a credit card. What balls. All because it was "slim pickings" for her.

Nice course run by awful people. Rude in the pro shop...cart girls pulling up to tee box while players in backswing...5 1/2 hour round without seeing a marshal all day. Called the pro shop and was told it was not their fault and there was nothing they could do. Might explain why there was a full hole and a half open ahead of us. Felt like they stole our money.

Very nice course but spent $50+ on a round and it took us over 4 hours to get through 11 holes. We finally just gave up after sitting for 28 minutes on the tee box. We didnt see a marshall until the 10th and the only compensation they offered was a $20 round Monday-Thursday. Terrible experience and will not return

Fossil Creek is typically a good time but yesterday it took 6 hours to play 17 holes. We got up to 18 and their was 8 people on the tee box. As of late they have not been good about spacing tee times and the Marshal to speed up play is non existent. Guys at the pro shop are top notch though.
