Not All That Was Expected

Hyped as one of the best courses in the region, I drove an hour to play. While it is a fine course, it is not in good condition (right now), and shows lots a wear. The hole layouts are a little boring, and the greens are really challenging (lots of slopes) and will only get faster. It's nice that it is not a neighborhood course, so no houses around, so good ambiance. I would play here for $50-60 if I lived closer.

Hidden Gem

I think this is course is very fun to play. The greens are in good shape and the course has a fun layout. The pace of play was very quick, but also it was very cold and windy so not many people out there. The course looks in fine shape for the weather we have been having.

Fun course, enjoyable round

Playing in early season (February), the course was in quite good condition. Fairways were dormant but full, greens were running true and mostly smooth. We had about 14 good pace holes and then we hit a five-some that played exceptionally slow. We remained stuck behind them through the remainder of the round. The marshall finally intervened, but not until hole 18 when it was too late to make a difference. Two hour front nine, three hour back nine as a result. But the course made up for it with a good layout and good conditions. We had a very nice February day as well, with low 60's and minimal wind.

Beautiful course

This is a fun challenging layout cut out of the wilderness as the name says. Everything including the way you are treated is top notch. It has a good diversity of hole design as well. You can choose just how much risk you want to bear from an array of tee boxes. Best course around by far.

Beautiful course with plenty of challenges

Played this course for the first time recently in a senior tournament. I had heard a lot of good things about the course and it didn’t disappoint. Greens had been top dressed recently but still rolled ok. Fun layout with a few long par fours mixed in with a bunch of 350 yard holes and one that was 270 ( from senior tees). No houses on the course which always scores points in my ratings. I’d highly recommend playing this course!

The greens are lush

These are the most receptive greens I’ve played in the Houston area and it’s such a relief. As a high handicapper, I can barely leave a ball mark anywhere else but not the case here. Course can play really long if you want the challenge. And the greens were just at the tail end of aeration and putts were still rolling really well. Overall, it’s a nice course with everything in front of you.

Great Conditions & Wonderful Staff

I play all over Texas and US and cannot find a better conditioned golf course and wonderful staff. Played on a Friday and there were two really friendly beverage carts driving the course, one for the front and one for the back nine. Greens are very undulated and large. Very nice contoured fairways with ponds and bunkers throughout the course. Very nice log cabin clubhouse really adds to the Wilderness experience. A must play if you have never played it.
