Mystic Creek Golf Club

Besides a gentlemen yelling at us from the putting green about our tee time, awesome time! We had the 810a (4-21-23), and apparently the gentleman was the 8a (threesome). The young lady running the proshop said we could go at 745 since we were a twosome. Paying 190 per person for a round of golf, you would think having a starter would be standard. Glad we got to experience Mystic Creek. Crowned greens and undulating fairways makes it a true test. Highly recommend, and thanks!

Amazing experience!! We planned to do golf vacation for 2 days with my husband and son. The course was amazingly well-maintained. But I have to say it’s a very hard course. All 18 holes are unique and beautiful. All staffs were very polite and helpful. The restaurant provided nice and reasonable price food. We will definitely go back again if we have time!

The only thing that could overshadow the friendliness of the entire staff is the Augusta-like course. I live near Pebble Beach and have played all the courses in the area and this course holds its own with the best of them. It’s stunning and worth the trip no matter where you live!

So worth the drive from Dallas. Just an amazing track with great service and friendly staff. The course is in magnificent shape and set in a beautiful forest. It is also a very hard course to play, but that makes it fun. Do not miss this gem.

El Dorado is home to one of the nicest golf courses in the state. As you make your way around the course you’ll find tall cathedral pines as you’d find at several courses around Augusta, high flashing bunkers styles similar to those on an A.W Tillinghast layout, and domed greens with runoffs similar to Pinehurst #2. Tee boxes, fairways, and greens grassed in Champion Bermuda are as beautiful to look at as they are fun to play on. Mystic Creek is not without its fair share of accolades: GolfWeek Magazine has put it at the top of its "Best You Can Play List," and was recognized as one of the 'Best New Courses' by Golf Digest shortly after opening. They’ve also played host annually to the Symetra Tour’s “El Dorado Shootout” and several NCAA Golf Championships. Mystic Creek is managed by Honours Golf, a division of Troon, so you know it’s always going to be in prime condition. Mystic Creek is a stunning piece of property and features wide-open fairways, spectacular bunkering around the greens, and greens PGA TOUR players would be proud to play on. Member’s Favorite: Number 14, Par 5, 493 yards. This is both the most challenging and most photographed hole on the golf course. The left side is framed by a creek and native grasses while a group of fairway bunkers catches any errant shots hit down the right. With the tees forward and a good drive, the green can be reached in two. A more conservative play is to play your second shot short of the greenside bunker on the left and leave yourself a short pitch shot into the green. That’s where things get interesting. The green is small and severely sloped from left to right. A pin located on the back shelf can be especially tricky and if you find the deep greenside bunkers, par can be tough. When the rough is cut down, it’s not uncommon for balls to roll off the green and come to rest near the creek at the bottom of the hill. Take a par and run! Assistant Pro Casey Wroot’s Favorite Hole: Number 4: Par 3, 172 yards. For a guy that can hit the ball a long way, it’s interesting that Casey’s favorite is a par 3. Although it’s the second-longest par 3 on the layout, it plays downhill and slightly shorter. Water surrounds the left and backside of the green and there are bunkers left side, front and back right. The ridge that divides the green is similar to the 16th hole at Augusta without the slope. My Favorite Hole: Number 18: Par 5, 489 yards. A well-played drive down the left-center of the fairway will present you with a choice to either layup to the right side of the severely sloped fairway or go for the green in two. There’s a strand of pine trees on the right and a fairway bunker left that catches anything pulled. If you choose to go for it, you’ll need to avoid several bunkers and collection areas that guard the green. There are three distinct tiers to the green, so you’ll need a good approach shot to have a chance at birdie or better.
