Canyon Creek Country Club

Join us for family-friendly fun all year long and an enjoyable 18-hole championship course in Richardson, Texas. Beyond the course, sip and savor in our restaurants, play tennis, take a dip in our pool, relax on the patio, and explore fun social events. Canyon Creek’s golf course is one of the best-kept secrets in North Dallas. Designed nearly 60 years ago by Press Maxwell, most of the 18-hole golf course is hidden from any street’s view, providing a secluded, distraction-free atmosphere. The par-70, 6,500-yard course frequently hosts several sectional and national qualifiers for both the United States Golf Association (USGA) and the Professional Golfers’ Association of America (PGA). The great thing is you don’t have to be a pro golfer to play. Players of every skill level enjoy this fair and inviting course. 

The Junior Academy at Canyon Creek is a year-round program that focuses on your junior's full game development. Classes meet for 90 minutes two times a week. We work hard, focusing on short game and fundamentals, playing the course as often as possible. Unlike other junior programs, we have many tournament opportunities for your junior, which lets them have fun and compete while meeting other golfers their age. Juniors have the opportunity to compete in 3, 6, or 9 hole tournaments throughout the year, along with the opportunity to play on our PGA Junior League teams. Regardless of your junior’s skill level, our academy will provide your junior with the skills to become the best golfer that they choose to be. Each junior is placed in a group depending on age and skill level and will have the chance to grow as golfers with other juniors around them.
