About
Editor's Note: Course closed for business in Jan 2018.
Lost Creek Golf Club is located on the southwestern edge of Fort Worth and labels itself “the best golf value in Fort Worth.” The golf course, designed by Leon Howard in 1971, has changed ownership too many times to count and is now a public course. Howard’s design utilizes elevated tees and a tree-lined creek to add character to the course.
While there are two long par 4s, most holes play in the mid-300-yard range, making it a relatively short layout at only 6,388 yards. Holes of note are the 433-yard 13th, featuring a creek that crosses in front of the tee and pinches the fairway along the left side, and the difficult No. 18, where the creek cuts across the fairway twice, making it a long 526-yard hole.
The best tip for approach shots is to keep the ball below the hole, as most of the greens slope from back to front.

The course needs help
The staff is now, and always has been great. The course is in bad shape. The fairways are like concrete. The greens are bumpy and have bald spots. The bridge has been out on #1 for I would say close to if not a year. I hope someone can come in and save this place, the layout and location are great!
Worst course ever played
Find another course. Poor condition. Poor staff.
Sorry to hear that you did not enjoy your round at Lost Creek. Please let us know if there is anything we can do to make it up to you!
Needs new management
The price is reasonable but the course conditions are not worth it. The only reason we played is that the sun was shining and everyone else was booked. That is the only way I'll play there again. Like playing a 9 hole course out in the country. Very unkempt.
Davis,
We thank you for taking time to leave a review. We are sorry to hear you were disappointed with the conditions of the course.
Course a little rough
Enjoyed playing but fairways were pretty rough. The greens were in pretty good shape. There are several pretty nice holes. The pro shop is fairly bare. If the fairways were better I'd play here a few times per year. As it is, probably won't be back for a long time.
Thank you for taking time to leave a review. We are working on improving the fairway and hope you will give us another shot in the future.
Worse than normal conditions
Course fairways in bad shape. Greens in fair condition and what you would expect to find at a course like this.
Thank you for taking time to leave a review. We are working to improve the course and appreciate your feedback!
Needs investment
I love this course but it is in need of maintenance. The tees are ok, The fairways are gone very little grass, the greens are nice. The staff is friendly but there is NO cart service. Stopped at the turn loaded up the ice chest and the restroom on the back nine was closed? No temporary porta-John. Not the way to finish a round quit on 18 to find the rest room. This course has such potential but it is in need of money to bring it back from its run down condition.
John,
Thank you for the feedback regarding our course. We are always looking to improve and appreciate you letting us know where there is room for improvement!
Average
The course was average and ok for the fact it still winter and everything was dead. The greens were really fast due to that. There was also no place to use the restroom in the course, they were all closed and the bathroom inside was dark and dirty.
Thank for for taking time to leave a review wand for giving us your feedback. We are always looking to improve the course! With Summer right around the corner, we hope you will come back to Lost Creek and give us another shot!
Ok
It was in ok shape but it did have bad storm that morning the green needs lot of work but over all it was ok to play
Sorry to hear that you just found the course ok. The storm definitely did play a factor into the shape of the course. Please let us know if there is anything we can do to make it up to you
Great Day
It is a great course with friendly staff.
Sedric,
Thanks for the 5 star review! We are happy to hear that our staff was so friendly! Please come back out to the course soon to see us!
Great course for what it is
Love the layout of the course. Has some elevation changes, tight on some holes, open on others. Fairways and greens aren't great, but for a $20-25 course, it's a fun track especially since we didn't wait on every tee box. Staff is great, and food in clubhouse was good.
Thanks for the review Joe! Glad you hear you enjoyed your round and the food! Make sure to check us out on Facebook to get the best deals on tee times! Hope to see you out on the course soon!
Lost Creek
Wonderful course, I am not an amazing golfer, but it wasn't hard all the time but it has its challenges. I have had a couple times where I had to wait on people for a few minutes, probably not the courses fault. But I have played it twice and plan to play it this weekend as well.
This is not a golf course
Played here several times in previous years and was always a decent track, but right now it is unacceptable. The greens have so much crab-grass like weeds on them every putt bounces and wobbles to make it impossible to make anything without pure luck. the fairways were very dry and were basically dirt which is odd because we have had so much rain this year. The tee boxes were worse than the fairways, they were never moved making them chewed up and all uneven. If you like to hit out of terrible bunkers, this is your place because every shot was like hitting off dirt. will not be returning here.
We apologize for the poor course conditions. We are currently working on impriving the course for our golfers. Please let us know if there is anything we can do to make this up to you. We would hate for this to be your last round at Lost Creek.
Good value for the money
It's winter so the course is brown. The greens are fast and bumpy. The cart bridge has been out on #1 for over a year, this causes you to park on the street and drive over the auto bridge, could be dangerous. The staff is wonderful very friendly and engaging. Use an iron on the tee on #5 and #6 to save a few strokes.
Thank you for all the feedback regarding the course! We are very glad to hear that our staff is friendly! Make sure to like us on Facebook to get the best deals regard Tee Time Specials!
Disappointed
I've played this course several times in the past but it's a shell of what it once was. The greens don't roll true at all - in fact they bounce more than actually rolling. This may be due to their version of winter conditions but I've played other courses that are in good shape. The price is cheap if you can get it on a deal. I won't be returning until massive improvements are made. Fairways and bunkers are fair but the greens are in bad shape.
Thank you for taking time to leave a review. We appreciate all feedback regarding the course and are currently working on making improvements. We hope in the near future, you will give us another shot. .
Coming along..
I had stopped playing this course do to poor up keep. But got a good golfnow time and friend of a friend said it had gotten better. Staff is always friendly and helpful. The course has had a lot of work done to it. Greens are way better, but still need some work. The course is fun, and has some challenging parts. Hope they keep up the hard work.
Thanks for taking notice to the changes that we have been doing to improve the course! We will continue to strive to make improvements to ensure all of our have enjoy their time at Lost Creek! We hope you will come out and see us in the future!
Lost Creek
Course has a great layout ... esp #4 from the tips. The greens were rough but they were dormant -the bunkers were in sad condition but we did have an inch of rain a couple of days before. And drained well - 90/degree rule for carts. All in all ... a GREAT value for the money and we had an awesome time!
We are so happy to hear that you had a great time golfing Lost Creek! Make sure to check us out on Facebook to find out about specials on tee times and other fun events that we have going on at the course! We hope to see you again soon!

We are glad to here you spend your last day of 2015 with us. Thank you for coming out and playing at Lost Creek. We hope you will come out and see us again soon!
Rainy Cold Day
I like this course. Tight fairways, trees, sand but on this day lots of water. Course maintinance was down due to heavy rains, Sand traps full of water and heaviy soaked grounds kept us on cart path. It was difficult to find dry ground. Course probably should've been closed. Front nine wasn't playable so we had to play back nine twice.
I'm more upset at Golfnow for not knowiing this before we booked. Wouldn't have played if we'de known. Once you pay there's no going back. Something golfnow needs to consider. Not to mention golfnow fees are getting very high. Almost half as much as the round cost. Reward system isn't great like it used to be!
Very Discouraging fees.
Thank you so much for the 5 star review. Sorry to hear that Golfnow did not notify you about the front 9 being closed. Always check out our Facebook page to find out about the best specials on Tee Times. We hope you will come out and see us soon!
Challenging course
Played this course alot in the past. In good shape. Greens fast and hold well for winter. Was very good weather (70) but windy
Dean,
Thank you for taking time to leave this great review. Wish the wind would have held down for you! Hope to see you again!
Lost Creek
I like to play this course, if I want to get in a quick round by myself and I can get it on a Hot Deal......since it's 5 minutes from my house. I wouldn't pay full price to play there, under any circumstances. The course isn't worth the full price rate, in comparison to other local courses.
Billy,
