Canyon Creek in Richardson

Canyon Creek is the largest neighbor in the city of Richardson, approximately two square miles.  Canyon Creek was aptly named for the beautiful creeks and streams that run through it giving this neighborhood a park like setting.  Within the neighborhood you'll find shopping, restaurants, parks, trails, and award winning schools.  Caynon Creek is in a prime Richardson location, close to Highway 75 and 190 Turnpike and well as the Richardson Telecom Corridor, home to companies like Blue Cross Blue Shield, Ericsson, Nortel, TI and State Farm.

At the heart of the neighborhood sits Canyon Creek Country Club offering a variety of activities and services.  Host a party or wedding in the full service club house.  Love to golf?  Play a few rounds at the 18-hole championship golf course.  The par-70, 6,500 yard course is tucked away from major roads, and host sectional and national qualifiers for the PGA and USGA.  Golf not your thing?  Give tennis a try!  Learn to play or join a team, there are 22 outdoor tennis courts and four indoor courts for year round play.  If golf and tennis not your thing, you can always sit pool side during the summer, catch some rays (with plenty of sunscreen, of course!), people watch or play with kids at the private junior Olympic sized pool or at the public neighborhood pool (maintained by the city of Richardson).
