Almost unplayable- needs a lot of work

Tee off as 7:30am, on Father’s Day-06/18/2023.

The good-The friendly staff, attentive cart girl and a challenging course layout.

The bad- poor course maintenance, no practice balls for the range.

Upon arriving the first thought is that the area was abandoned. The parking lot was in horrible condition, but to be fair their website mentions that the parking lot is under renovation, however it does not appear construction has started. The “pro shop ” is located inside of the bar as well as the restroom. It did not appear that they sold more than golf balls and tees so make sure you have all the gear you need beforehand. Golf Now had the advertised rate at $49pp however it was only $26pp to play. There was less than 1 bucket worth of practice balls available and a larg portion of those balls were competent broken in two or severely cracked. Regarding the actual course, the fairway had not been mowed for some time making good fairway shots unfindable, this slowed pace of place to a crawl. The course has lots of potential however they either do not have the funds or the crew to maintain the course and facilities.

Given how many options are available in the DFW area I will not likely return to the course unless the course is able to correct and maintain the issues above.

Avoid This Course Until They Improve It

We played this course twice in June of 2023. Two of the 18 fairways were mowed. Some of the weeds were over 3 feet tall, on the fairways. It was easy to lose your ball, on the fairway, because of the very tall weeds. The greens had lots of dead patches. This used to be one of our favorite places to play. It may be that Grand Oaks had a problem with their staff or they may be going backrupt. Not sure. They gave a 25% discount because the course was so bad. I want them to improve the course so that we can play there again.

My opinion.

This course has great potential if it was maintained correctly. The layout is great and a pretty easy course all in all. Im not sure if these guys have heard of a mower or not but thats what it needs. Greens where in horrible shape all around. Fairway felt like i was stepping out in some two month old grass and god forbid you loose one in the rough. We played at a fast pace, but it was next to impossible to do in the conditions of this course. Honestly this was a first and last time for us. Take what you want from this review but in all of our opinions this course isn't worth $20 to play! Do better guys, dont set false expectations when someone calls in to ask about the course! The desert looks better!

Goat Ranch

It’s a shame to see. Fairway was full of weeds, course is poorly maintenance, greens are in awful condition. We paid $50 on a Saturday for a prime time Saturday Am tee time which is not a lot…. But $20 woulda been too much for this place.

Green is deteriorating

Green is deteriorating. There is not much green left that make puttings become hard. Cart path only plus playing front 9 twice made game become very slow & frustrated. I had to leave after first 9. It took almost 3.5 hrs fro 9 holes. Not worth the money.

Unplayable course

It was a good course last year. Greens are in worst condition that I never seen in any course.

There are no fairways and even tee boxes are not well maintained.

I am not going back

Poor Course Conditions

Usually one of my favorites but this day the course was in pretty rough shape. Half or more of the greens barely had any grass at all and the fairways were unusally in bad shape. When asked The gentlemen in the pro shape said all this was due to the weather, which I can understand. But charging full price and not notifying players prior to starting a rounds of the conditions is unforgivable

Grand Oaks

I enjoy the course because it’s relatively short. It has a nice mixture of par 3s and par 5s. There are a few places along some of the ponds that some sort of corn shoul be erected since it would be very easy to roll your cart into the pond. The pace of play was slow as I was behind some men who thought they were on a Sunday stroll! Otherwise I had a good day.

Poor course maintenance

There were maybe 6 greens out of 18 with actual puttable grass. The rest were dead grass and dirt. Waiting time for players ahead added an hour to our game time. I don’t plan to return.
