Description

Located just a stone’s throw off Interstate 30, this expanse of tree-lined fairways, putting greens and sand traps is owned by the city of Dallas, which means the course fees are reasonable. The 18 holes are fairly compact, so no need to worry about heat stroke when walking the course in the scorching summer months. There’s also a golf shop where you can pick up snazzy golf pants or replace that driver you accidentally tossed into the lake.

Director of Instruction Scott Robbins and his crew (we also worked with former LPGA player Kelly... More »

    Dallas' first public golf course, the place where Lee Trevino got his start, stands as a sharp reminder that city government can sometimes get things right. With its two courses and extensive range and teaching facility, Tenison is an everyman's country club. It hosts 36 holes at two price levels. Tenison Highlands was refurbished in 2000 with five new lakes, smoother greens and 32 new bunkers and sports fees in line with its upper-end conditioning. Tenison Glen is a hilly, creekside...
