We are golfers and this experience is great if you just want to hang out with friends and hit balls. It's very social and allows for fun interaction and competition. I'd give this place a 5-star rating because the couple of people we interacted with were very friendly. However, my husband's watch went missing from the table and we never found it. Also, you "have to" sign up as a membership (just $5) and we were told that we wouldn't get inundated with emails. But, I got 5 emails the next day. I had to unsubscribe. We'll go to another TopGolf facility in the near future, but we'll watch our belongings more closely. Also, keep tabs on what you're spending. It's easy to overspend with the drinks, golf time and food.

Arbor Hills Nature Preserve

Reviewed By TXMCK - Dallas

It is easy to hike the paths here. There are plenty of other people and their dogs enjoying the vistas. There is a nice observatory tower and a few footpaths off the main ones. Plenty of squirrels and rabbits skitter around in the bushes. It is not overly shady, so use the sunscreen and wear a hat. There is no light on the paths at night, so plan a daytime hike.

Walk thru the history of video games with the original cartons, displays and games. The best part of the NVM is the arcade, where you can play the games using tokens (the entrance fee I paid was $12, which includes a handful of tokens, and you can purchase more from a vending machine). Good air conditioning. Free parking.
Note the NVM is set back from the street (North Dallas Parkway) and I drove past it the first time. The NVM is in a huge group of buildings with some other Frisco cultural stuff along with at least one private business. The NVM is off the Tollway/Parkway near Cotton Gin Road on the east side.

This expansive complex has many high end shopping options with pedestrian friendly walkways. There is also a convenient (and currently free!) parking deck and parking lot which is a short walk to the variety of restaurants which offers numerous cuisine. There is everything from sushi to Turkish food to the burger offerings of Twisted Root. This is a great area to meet up with friends or explore on your own.

During our trip of Dallas while traveling Downtown Dallas to McKinney we stayed in this park for relaxing and enjoying the sunshine of Dallas. It is really nice park where play area for children is available and seating places for relaxation is also available and walking paths is also good for locals.

I've attended two years in a row and they are always doing some form of construction, maybe one year they'll get it right. Also long lines for concessions, and crowd control not the best. Parking was a nightmare due to construction. Perhaps when construction completed it will be better.

Thriving Destination Upscale Regional Mall for North Texas. Large and busy food court, several anchor stores, always good crowds, easy parking except holidays, popular in-mall restaurants. Still has an excellent bookstore, although the ice rink closed. Multiplex movies. This mall will survive Amazon.

Awesome experience - love me some Cowboys!! Buy tickets ahead of time for the guided tour. Skip the expensive hotels nearby and try out an Airbnb on the Lake Lewisville side of Frisco away from the hustle and bustle while you enjoy fishing, water sports, hiking etc. There is an Airbnb listing with "1600 sq ft" in the title and it is right outside of Hidden Cove Park. Highly recommended!

Stonebriar Community Church

Stonebriar exists to encourage all people to pursue a lifelong, joyous relationship with Jesus Christ. Our history dates back to 1998, when a small group of people, including Senior Pastor Chuck Swindoll, founded a church in Frisco, Texas. We are a nondenominational, evangelical Christian church. That means that we are governed by our own elders, not an outside organization. About 4,000 people worship at Stonebriar each Sunday.

Steve Farrar teaches in a clear, easily understandable manner that speaks to men. He doesn't baby the men, but he doesn't punch them in the nose either. Very biblically sound teaching.
