Meeting neighbors at the country club
Centered around the country club that shares its name, Canyon Creek brings modern amenities to the suburban setting of Richardson, Texas. “A lot of people don’t want to leave Dallas, because they want to be close to shopping and things to do, but also want higher rated schools and more of a suburban lifestyle,” says Brielle Oakley, a Realtor with the Nina Bhanot Group who has been selling in the area for three years. “Richardson is a perfect blend of both.” The voluntary homeowner’s association keeps the community close by organizing yearly events. “All of the homes in Canyon Creek are very well manicured,” says Chris Shortino, a real estate advisor with Engel & Völkers. “People take care of the neighborhood in order to have a community that people want to live in.” However, it doesn’t have the exclusivity that sometimes can be associated with a country club neighborhood, because there is a wide variety of home types at multiple price points.
Canyon Creek is nestled in among the mature trees and the area golf course.
With highly rated schools, a country club and several scenic parks, Canyon Creek is well loved.

Homes overlooking the golf course
As an established neighborhood, there are many original homes from the 1960s and '70s, although some have been torn down and replaced with new construction. “Some homes are being remodeled or added to,” Shortino says. “There’s quite a bit of that happening in the neighborhood.” There are a lot of different styles, including smaller ranch-styles, larger contemporary houses and Spanish-style homes with red tile roofs. There is also some multi-family housing near the golf course, including townhouses. Single-family homes range from the low $400,000s to the high millions, depending on size, style and how recently the home was built or renovated. Homes closer to the country club and Prairie Creek tend to have a higher price. Condos and townhouses run from the low $200,000s to the mid $500,000s.
The tree lined streets in Canyon Creek are primarily lined with ranch style homes.
Buyers have a wide variety of architectural styles to choose from in Canyon Creek. McMansions provide lots of space for growing families.

Split between two highly-rated school districts
Lookout Drive splits the neighborhood; on the northern side, homes are zoned to Plano Independent School District and on the southern border, they are zoned to Richardson Independent School District. “Plano and Richardson are both highly sought-after school districts,” says Oakley. Plano schools include Aldridge Elementary, scoring an A on Niche; Wilson Middle, A-minus; Vines High School, B-plus; or Plano Senior High School, A. Richardson students go to Canyon Creek Elementary, rated A on Niche; Richardson North Junior High, A-minus; and Pearce High, A. According to Oakley, Canyon Creek is one of the top elementary schools in the area and is a reason people want to move to the neighborhood.
Canyon Creek Elementary students enjoy productive lives in the future they create.
There are some nice areas to walk around at Plano Senior High School.

Creeks running through scenic green spaces
Canyon Creek Country Club features an 18-hole golf course with rolling hills, mature trees and a small creek running through it. “A lot of people have golf carts in the neighborhood,” Shortino says. “They’ll drive them over to the golf course.” In addition to golf, members can enjoy a game of pickleball or tennis, swim in one of the three pools, or dine at the Press 63 restaurant. Over at Prairie Creek Park, there’s no membership needed to enjoy the natural recreational setting. Its forested hiking trails run parallel to the namesake creek, with multiple bridges throughout the park crisscrossing the water. A waterfall at the northern end of the greenbelt offers a great place to rest and enjoy the scenery from the manufactured rock overlook. There’s also a handful of smaller parks, including Canyon Creek Park, Point North Park and Custer Park.
Canyon Creek residents enjoy strolling along the waterfall at Prairie Creek Park.

A patriotic parade on Independence Day

"Every year, they throw a Fourth of July parade,” Oakley says. “All the neighbors get involved and put their little flags out in the yard. If you drive through the neighborhood in June or July, you can see them.”
