Golf courses in Dallas, TX.

Dallas, TX

Stevens Park opened in 1924 as Dallas's second city course. Jack Burke Sr. laid out the original nine, and it later grew to 18. It sits in Oak Cliff between the Kessler Park and Stevens Park Estates neighborhoods, just west of downtown. Colligan Golf Design rebuilt every hole in 2011. The work changed the routing, made it a par 70, added 38 bunkers and new Bermuda greens, and planted hundreds of trees and rosebushes. A creek and hilly ground give it more shape than most Dallas golf. It is a city course open to everyone, and neighbors still raise money each year to help care for it.
