Indian Creek Golf Course

We did the lakes side. This is one of the best beginner course to learn. The land is flat and open with few trees of course. Not too many creeks and hills. I only did 9 holes though so unsure how the back 9 would be

Visited Indian Creek today for the first time. We played the Lakes course which requires a little bit of shot-making or some lucky bounces off the trees (if you are me). The conditions are pretty spot on for this time of year, and slightly better than some of the other courses I've played over the last month. I can see how much fun this course can play if you are hitting your shots well. I still had fun even though I wasn't hitting them as good as I would have liked.I can't wait to come back and play the Creek course.BTW - I was really impressed with the staff. It is obviously a little more of an operation running two courses on a really busy weekend. The staff was welcoming and did a great job of moving things along. Hope to come back soon!

I'm a "Super Senior" player with a single-digit handicap and play from the White Tees. I don't see many ratings since the course reopened after the severe flooding. The course is under new management; I see that as a plus. I'm only rating the Creek Course, a very challenging course. I played the Lakes Course many years ago and see no reason to ever play again.So, let's look at the Creek Course. From the White Tees (and from when I played the Blue Tees), this is a tougher than average course. The White Tee Course Rating is 70.6 with a Slope of 134 on a Par 72, 6,217 yard layout. The Par 4 holes are lengthy with three right at or over 400 yards, a tough grind for older seniors. This is not a wide open course by any means with plenty of water and sand bunkers. But, it is a good course for a good challenge.But, two things drag this course down. The greens are reasonable slick and many have severe slopes. Above the hole and you frequently can't stop the ball before the hole when they put the pin in the slope or at the bottom of the slope. Three putts might be normal. But, what that brings on a public course is slower play, already a problem with modern golf.The second is the condition of the tees. I see three major issues with the tees. First, the grass is far too long. Second, they are filled with massive weeds. And, third, the worst is that they're not level with severe side-to-side slopes and massive shallow holes impacting your stance.A minor annoyance is the white paint inside the cups. While some courses put nothing in the hole above the inset of the cup, this greens crew sprays the 1" space above the cup with white paint. When you reach in the cup for your ball, you will get white paint on your hand and it will transfer to your shorts, pants, skirts, etc. and be a mess to clean.This is a good group running the course since early 2017. The gas carts are fine. The cart girls complete several rounds during your round. The staff is friendly. The GPS unit in the cart is very basic but OK. I hope they put some thought into the tees and pin positions to improve time on the course.The Creek Course is a good enough layout to try if you're a focused golfer. I think pace-of-play is stuck at an annoying 4:15+ pace and that's a shame. It's a great price and a fair value. It's probably the best "value" as a public course north of I635 around I35E, but, there are plenty of other options in the DFW Metroplex.

Horribly ran course and they treat their staff very poorly. I have heard numerous offensive racial jokes from the assistant manager and it's disgusting.

Worst course I've ever played. All the tee boxes were uneven. Greens had divots all over them. Not one to write a review but yikes. If you care about playing a quality round of golf not recommended. Upside staff was super friendly and food was delicious but course conditions were terrible.

bring back the buffalo chicken wrap!!! even your staff agrees it was most popular thing on the menu

We had a tournament here today and they did a great job hosting. They had excellent cart service and the course was in good shape. What I don't appreciate is when I went to settle my tab I got harassed because it was after 5:30. We played 36 holes in our tournament today so we did good to finish when we did today. I had no idea there was a deadline to settle. But the lady in charge sure made sure I knew she wasn't happy about it. And they added 20% tip automatically to our tabs. I get the need to settle before a specific time. The club had internet issues all day that we all had to deal with. We had a cart die and couldn't reach the clubhouse because of this. We dealt with it and didn't loose our cool. So when I started getting the business for being late to settle I was flabbergasted at this lady's response. Your servers got their 20% and no more because of your attitude. A thanks our patronage would have gone a long way at the end of the day.

Staff - The staff was very friendly and welcoming. Other courses should take note. Even as I strolled through the grill, which was not open at the time, I was greeted by a worker preparing for the day. This is good customer service.Course - The golf course was in pretty good shape. By that I mean the fairways were generally pretty good for a public course and the greens were along the same lines. As far as the layout is concerned, I prefer a more rolling hills type of course like Tangle Ridge or Squaw Creek (At least the holes that play from or to the clubhouse. That is just a personal preference.What I had the most problem with were the tee boxes at the tips. Very few of them were level. They were so uneven I had to move forward to the back of the blues or even at the blues. The blues were generally fairly level. Many of the tips tee boxes had huge ripples in them so it was impossible to find level ground from which to hit a drive. I believe it was #11 where the entire tips tee box sloped to the left. A few others were very similar. This is not becoming of a quality course. It was refreshing to run across a level tee box periodically. It reminded me of several of the unplayable tee boxes at Prairie Lakes, not a course one would want to be compared to. For the amount of money to play a round at Indian Creek, I expect level tee boxes. this issue needs to be remediated. Plain and simple.I enjoyed most of the par 5s except #6. Having two paths to the green off the tee is a welcome opportunity (a la #10 at Waterchase at 633 yards), but at 514 yards and its particular layout (trees in middle of fairways, water on left by the green, etc.), it seems as if the designers were trying to force the hole instead of coming up with something a bit more interesting and natural. With a wind from behind, my drive left me with an 8 iron to the green (about 160 yards). This hole would be better served as a long par 4 between 440 and 490 rather than a very short par 5. If the wind were out of the direction of the green, then the second shot as a long iron (3-5) would make more sense than the way it is currently configured.#12 is a fun hole. Who wouldn't like trying to nail a 3 wood or driver from the tips? But, considering the distances of all the holes on the course, this par 3 is not consistent with the overall tone of the course.#13 is also a fun hole requiring accurate placement of the tee shot.However, #14 might as well not be part of the course. In a way, it is almost as inconsistent with the over tone of the course as is #12. It appears the designers were just trying to cram in a par 3 because they ran out of space. Adding a good size water hazard in front of this hole would add spice to the challenge or even a links type of deep sand trap spanning 75% across the front of the green would enhance the worthiness of this hole. #4 at Tangle Ridge is a much more challenging hole and interesting than this one at essentially the same 131 yard length.#15, at 375, is a bit too short for a generally straight on par 4. I would shorten #16 and add 50 yards to #15. 550 yards for #16 is workable.#17 is a good hole into the wind. Forces more long iron play.#18. I would rather see a par 3 between two bodies of water than having to land a drive between the water as this hole dictates. More drama with a par 3 than a drive off the tee.

One of the best municipal courses I've ever played on. Fast greens, great fairways, and they have even taken care of the sand during Covid which is something that many courses stopped caring about. Great food, great clubhouse staff, and the carts with GPS mapping is another huge plus. Only thing they can do to improve the place would be to re-level the tee boxes on the Creek Course.

Went to the golf course today for the first time and won't be back. The people running the golf course are very rude and have zero customer service skills. Won't ever be back
