I am happy to write a positive review as most are negative. The facilities are good. The range is nice, the golf balls are better than normal quality. The course looks nice although I’ve never played it. The positive review comes from the gentleman in the pro shop who answered my phone call and sold me a bucket of golf balls. Many times people who work in a pro shop are jerks. At this club, I felt kindness, helpfulness, and someone who really was happy to help. That is rare. Thank you for being nice to people! Please go to this facility for a good experience and nice people.

Where else can you play a course as mature and well kept for 33 bucks including cart… I bought a small bucket got a total of $ 38… If this course was in the suburbs you’d pay $ 60+, no doubt! One of the best deals in DFW.

I played here last weekend and had a great time. I almost didn’t go here; I had this place bookmarked on Unilocal from a while back and only last weekend felt adventurous enough to try someplace new. But driving here, it’s really sketchy. The surrounding area is so economically depressed, it’s scary. I drove by two windowless places claiming they were«riverside» something-or-other, bars and pool halls I think. But the river was a 10 foot wide trickle strewn with trash on either side. Homes built in the 20s and 40s that were at some point the height of Americana — neighbors talking over white picket fences while kids rode bikes and jumped rope. No more. Houses that haven’t been kept up in decades with crushed chain-link fences and nearly each one has some ugly mutt that looks like it’s been cross-bred so many times it’s less of a dog and more of a killing machine. Wow! So how was the golf, Steve? Well, after driving through the demilatirized zone, I was impressed by how nice the club house was. It’s an impressive building, given the area. I paid something like $ 38 or $ 35 to walk 18 here on a Saturday. I got paired up with 3 guys within ½ an hour. Nice guys too. - The course itself is surrounded by a black iron fence, generally with trash on the other side. The course is in decent shape — even for winter. Greens were totally fine — tee boxes were in good shape. It’s a wide open course, with some hills. A few killer par 5s, more par 3s than most 18 hole courses, and some interesting hills and valleys that will throw you for a loop. The guys I was with had been here before, and they gave me some tips on each hole. Some holes slope to the left or right, so you don’t always want to hit it dead-straight or you’ll roll to one side. I shot 100, which is typical. At the turn, you drive/walk by the clubhouse again, so if you need to use the facilities or get a beer(Same thing?) it’s convenient. I don’t know if I’d play here again. I would if someone asked me too but I don’t think I’ll go out of my way again. I might play it once summer hits to see how it is on actual live grass(it’s all brown now — played Jan 31). But it’s a good course — it’s just sad that it’s in this neighborhood I don’t want to have to drive through again!

The site of the 1927PGA Championship. Little slice(see what I did there?) of history in this course and great views of downtown Dallas on the back 9. Played here on a Thursday afternoon and the course was in solid shape and there were very few people out there. Great distance course

I play this as my home course because it is within a 10 minute drive from North Oak Cliff and if you play Monday thru Friday it feels like a private course! MUCH less crowded than Stevens Park! This is the oldest course in Dallas and the recent upgrade is pretty nice. It is wide open and well manicured. The clubhouse is descent, but the food is average at best. The only reason I give this 4 stars is due to it’s location, but then again if it were located north of I-30 — it would be crowded and not nearly the bargain it is! The driving range is nice, good short game area and nice practice greens. Their large bucket is $ 8. Not a bargain, but not too bad. Staff is friendly and the crowd pleasant. I’ve never experienced a problem except on weekends when play can slow on Saturdays. Mon-Thursday this is a great course to walk!

generally play at Tennison, but for a change of scenery my brother-in-law and I decided to play Cedar Crest today. IT is a well designed course, though not very long. I hit a 3 wood off most of the tees(playing from the golds, what would be blues elsewhere) and had no trouble shooting for the greens in regulation. The holes are very unique and offer some challenges, though the course is very forgiving. Water only comes into play on 4 or 5 holes and drives that wind up off the fairway are usually playable. Though it was a brutally hot day, the course was in exceptional condition. It’s a great municipal course for a very reasonable price.

I’m not a BIG golfer or anything, but this is the course I go to since it’s closest to me(I live in uptown) and it’s about a 10 minute drive. It’s a clean course, well kept from what I can tell, has a driving range, and is never TOO crowded but like I said, I don’t play THAT much. I got this stamp card with like 12 large buckets for the driving range for $ 40(GREAT deal) and I go and hit balls on their range all the time. It’s quiet, not many people, and just a good place to go for cheap in the Dallas area near uptown. I’ve played the course a handful of times with friends and never experienced anything bad. The staff probably isn’t as attentive as it could be, but I haven’t been there when it’s PACKED so I really don’t know. Apparently, the 1927PGA Championship was held here or something like that. The only con to the place is you do drive through the ghetto to get there. I take Martin Luther King and the drive isn’t the prettiest. Then, you get to the course and it’s like whoa what’s this doing here? Ha Great place for golfing though. Has a pro shop that sells equipment, supplies, food, and drinks.

This is a great Dallas municipal golf course! It is an engaging layout with more hills than you would expect or think is possible in the flatness known as Dallas. Because of this, some of the holes have higher elevation greens than tee boxes so that you can’t actually see the pin or the fairway where you’re aiming at. Sometimes, you just have to trust the sign that says, «For best results, aim directly at the power pole [that is way off in the distance]» Beverage cart will typically stop by a few times while you’re playing your round, which is nice. Also, the clubhouse is really really nice. I think it was redone/rebuilt recently, which explains it. One big negative: it’s not in the nicest part of Dallas, and one time, while hitting my 2nd shot on the 14th hole, I heard a POPPOPPOPPOP(8 – 10 times total pops). Yea…
