Course was in good shape and greens were fast. Ground is dry, but what can they really do after this last summer?? Great time as always out there!

While the fairways and greens were in better shape than before, the tee boxes need a lot of work. And I don’t think that one group owned a divot tool or had a tee, since the greens were littered with pitch marks. The fairways, while in better shape than the last time I played there, no players seem to ever fill their divots. Also, it was 100* outside and there was no water on the course (containers were empty). There was no starter, so we got off late and as a twosome were behind a fivesome, with three walkers in the group. We had a 3:20pm tee time and got started around 3:35pm and only got to hole 17, we did not finish, we ran out of daylight.

Course was in decent shape, despite the fairways being riddled with infilled divots, but the greens rolled well. The largest issue was pace of play. Started off with two groups waiting at the first hole, while a group was on the tee, a group in the fairway and a group on the green. The group in front of us were obviously beginners and were playing off the white tees (ca.6300yds). Half of the time, all four players failed to make it past the red tees with their tee shots, and this included par threes. If Marshall’s actually existed in America at regular courses, they would have been asked to play off the front tees for everyone’s benefit, including their own. Instead of 4-5 shots to reach the green on a par three or 12-15 shots, with extra golf balls on par fours and fives. We started just past noon and barely finished before dark. Simple attention from staff can easily avoid this issue in the future. But only at private courses here and in the U.K. have I ever witnessed proactive marshalls and conscientious players.

It was over five hours for our round today. We started by waiting an extra 20 min after our scheduled tee time. The group in front of us was waiting on a fivesome in front of them. The group in front of us were easily 25-30+ HCP, yet playing off the tournament blue tees, and hitting multiple balls off the tee and fairways; no Marshall in sight. Tee times are not regulated and there should never be fivesomes on a weekend afternoon. Pitch marks litter the greens as well, and half the divots on the fairways are not replaced or filled in. All around highly poor management at this course. It’s a shame considering it could be a very nice track. I will not be returning to this course.

Greens were recently air-rated, so the roll is very bouncy and inconsistent. Seems that no one cares to repair their pitch marks, so greens are also littered. All in all I was a bit disappointed in the course condition. When it’s in good shape, this is easily one of the best public courses in Houston; just not this week. Still had a great time with friends out there, and the staff were friendly as per usual. There were some great twilight views as well. I’ll always return to this course, but will give it a few weeks to recover.

I was visiting from Houston, and got paired with three members. They were all very fun to play with and made me feel right at home. Conditions were above average, and the course layout was challenging but fair. Fairways and greens in great shape, and cold water available through the whole course. I would play this track again when back in the Dallas area.

Played this course randomly, as I was just visiting for the weekend and played a solo round at 07:35am. The course basically wasn’t ready for players; sprinklers were still going, no bev cart, bar was closed, no snacks or anything available. After the turn I went back inside for a snack, but still no progress in the bar. The guy at the pro shop had to get a couple things from the back for me (trail mix, snickers) and ring me up in the pro shop. Course was decent, but course was not mowed well at all, greens need work. Twice I caught up to the groups in front of me and they ignored my suggestions of letting me play through; there were no marshals. In my opinion, it’s poorly managed. It’s a small neighborhood course with good pictures on its website. I would not recommend this course.

Always a challenge out here. The greens never disappoint, and today was no exception. Although it was cart path only and the fairways were quite wet, it was a great time. It was t crowded, we never waited on anyone and the course played as difficult as always. Love this track and will always go back. As a small treat, we saw a red fox watching us putt on ones of the back nine greens.

The greens are about the only thing missing on this course. Poor management obviously lead to this situation. Also, the golf carts were missing windshields, and with close fairways, there were a few close calls. Beside that, the course has great potential with a little more TLC to be a great track. I had not played since February and really thought conditions would have improved with the recent rain and sunshine. But no, the greens were basically unplayable. We either took drops for our putts to sections of the greens that were still grass, or we took our chances on the rough terrain. I will not play her again until I see reviews that things have improved. There are simply too many choices in the Houston area with no issues with the greens, to bother coming back here anytime soon. If you’re just starting and green conditions don’t matter to you, this is a great option. If money is involved or playing toward your HCP, avoid this course.
