Never been a huge Fazio fan. Practice areas are ludicrous and why oodles of Tour guys play here. Other than a scenic elevated tee shot on 10, I struggle to pick out many memorable or particularly well designed holes.

Underrated. Fun and pretty holes. 10 is an awful hole, but other than that great course. Bad practice facilities

Tillie layout never gets old. Could play this every day gladly. Never played it pre-redesign but the current iteration is awesome. Worst hole on the course is 18 but rumor has it they have a plan to fix it. 8 is an awesome par 3. 15 and 16 are two other favorites.

I think it’s pretty fun. Typically slow, hard to keep condition up with the amount of play. Wouldn’t pay full rate as they do lots of deals

Hard to say anything back about the A.W. Tillinghast course. Layout is great, conditions are good, price is solid. Really can’t ask for much more from a muni. Hidden gem. Not on the public apps so lesser known means you can actually get a decent tee time.

How we rank
This ranking uses each golfer’s scenery rating, on a 0.5–5 scale. Scenery is the scenery score golfers give when they log a round. Every golfer counts once per course: repeat rounds are averaged first, then the course score is the average across golfers. A course needs scenery ratings from at least 5 different golfers. Ties go to the course with more golfers, then the higher Course Vaults score. Only open courses with a published Course Vaults score (at least 5 explicit ratings) are eligible, and a page is published only when at least 5 courses qualify. City pages include courses within about 25 miles of Dallas, so nearby suburbs can appear. Rankings refresh about hourly.
