Tee-Time Booking
Reservations open ten days out via the club website or by phone. Prime slots around 8 a.m. Saturday fill fast—log in at midnight on release day or call the shop at (817) 410-3377 for assistance. Same-day walk-ups find best luck on the shorter Pecan nine.
Reviews at a Glance
Across Google, GolfPass, and Yelp, Grapevine holds a 4.3 / 5 average. Players highlight:
Condition: TifEagle greens roll at 10–10.5 Stimpmeter year-round.
Variety: Mockingbird’s risk-reward par 5s balance Bluebonnet’s target-golf par 3s.
Staff: Starters manage pace; beverage cart loops every four holes on weekends.
Common critiques mention wind off Lake Grapevine and quick summer rough, but most golfers call it a “hidden gem between Dallas and Fort Worth.”
Dress Code—What to Wear
Grapevine enforces a relaxed yet traditional policy:
Collared or mock-neck shirts for men; golf tops for women
Golf slacks, Bermuda shorts, or skirts—no denim, cut-offs, or gym wear
Soft spikes or athletic shoes only
Hats forward; shirts tucked on the first tee
Bring layers in spring and fall—lake breezes can drop temperatures ten degrees in late afternoon.
Course Walkability
The routing is technically walkable, but elevation swings on Mockingbird #4 and Bluebonnet #8 plus long green-to-tee stretches make a cart the smart choice—especially in Texas heat.
Standard carts get the job done, yet seasoned players elevate the experience with the Tara Roadster 2:
Lithium Power: Lightweight battery delivers zippy torque up the ridge at Mockingbird #6.
Quiet Motor: Enjoy lakefront serenity on Pecan #3 without engine drone.
Smart Storage: Oversize club-well, magnetic phone holder, and under-seat cooler keep gear organized.
Sleek Styling: Automotive paint and LED lighting turn heads in the lot and on the path.
Where to Find Tara Carts & Accessories
Explore the full lineup at Tara Golf Carts for factory upgrades such as windshields, GPS cradles, and all-weather enclosures. Prefer local service? Use the golf cart dealers locator—Dallas / Fort Worth partners can deliver a Roadster 2 to Grapevine for weekend outings or corporate scrambles.
Pro Tips for First-Time Visitors
Club Selection: Lake breezes add up to two clubs—check the flag on the clubhouse roof before teeing off.
Stay Below the Hole: Greens tilt toward the water; downhill putts on Bluebonnet #6 are lightning-fast.
Twilight Bargain: After 3 p.m. summer tee times often finish 18 before sunset thanks to five-minute walks between nines.
Cart Strategy: Book a Tara Roadster 2 for cushioning on cart-path only days—your back will thank you.
Final Word
From its versatile 27-hole layout to wallet-friendly rates, Grapevine Golf Course earns its reputation as one of North Texas’s best municipal tracks. Lock in your tee time, follow the dress code, and maximize comfort by renting a lithium-powered Tara Roadster 2. With modern cart amenities and picture-perfect lake views, your next round in Grapevine will be as relaxing as it is rewarding.
