Golf Courses

Big Fossil Creek in 1983 winding its way southwest through North Richland Hills. The creek drains Iron Horse Golf Course, Diamond Oaks Country Club, and Fossil Creek Park. Big Fossil Creek had a history of periodic flooding of homes in the adjoining Richland Hills in the 1950s until flood control measures on the southernmost part of the creek were taken. Flooding continued in the upper parts of the creek and in the late 1980s, a flood caused extensive damage to the city-owned Iron Horse Golf Course.
