This is a good course. The staff is great. But for a weekday round at $86 is just wrong. There are ruff areas on some greens and hard pan under all the trees and in numerous places every where. It is a decent course and maybe at best $60 on a weekday. It’s not worth the $$$.

The front nine is literally unplayable. Greens and fairways are in bad shape.. It is great lay out and it’s fun playing by the coast but it is in poor shape. The back nine is in great shape. It’s like 2 different courses.

There were 3 fivesomes playing in the heart of a Sunday morning backing up the entire course. These guys were not that old and they were parked carts on the short grass of the greens. They had closest to the pin markers, adding there scored up on the side of the greens and not letting any one play through. This is the third and last time I will ever play there because the pace of play is awful each time I’ve played it. I spoke to a Marshal who was very nice but advised he could not let golfers play through this group because they are a regular skins game Sunday morning group that the pro shop allows to play. And the cart path is absolutely horrible! Worst I’ve ever seen... I left the course on hole 7. I play golf all over the Houston area and this is the worst pace of play course hands down. The locals ruin would could be a decent golf experience.

I’ve been playing BF for years. It is the best course for the money any where in the Bay Area. The staff is great, the Marshall’s are always nice and do a great job. They try hard to keep the course in good shape and the range is way above average. Can’t go wrong playing BF.

I play this course frequently when I’m in NB. It is one of my favorite courses. The staff is great and friendly. My buds and I played it in April and it was great. The Marshsll was extremely nice. The pace of play is a lil slow but not to bad. Great track!

Wronged again!

I booked a round on a Sunday at 12:40 on a beautiful day. I get there and there’s a huge tournament about to start at 12:30. I asked the lady in the pro shop about it and she said yes it’s about to have a shot gun start and we will try to fit you in but it will be hard for you to play your round. This is the third time this has happened to me at this place! I tried to give them the benefit of the doubt for the last time. The lady didn’t offer me a free round later or nothing. And there were no other available t times in the area on a short notice in the area. Totally ruined my golf day. This is a trend at this course. DO not book this place. Especially if your out of town flying into the air port for a round of golf. You may not get to play or be stuck behind 3 to 4 groups of resident who they will not honor your t time for. This course has absolutely no business being on the Golf Now App! Beware of this sham t time joke.

Hello Mr. Boynton
I apologize that your recent experience was not what you were expecting. However, there are some details that I believe, to be fair, need to be pointed out.

First, you booked a “Hot Deal” through GolfNow. As such, Pearland Golf Club is not involved in the transaction. The dollars go directly to GolfNow and Pearland Golf Club doesn’t have any contact with you during the booking process. As such, we did not have an opportunity to inform you of the Shotgun event that went out prior to your tee time.

Second, it appears that you were upset about being behind a tournament. Please remember that April 11th was Masters Sunday which is always a very busy day for all public golf courses. Even though the course was effectively “sold out”, you were able to book your tee time at the lowest possible rate through the Hot Deal at Golf Now. The tournament that was in front of you tee time played in 4.5 hours on a sold out Masters Sunday. That is pretty good given the circumstances. You would have been behind a sold out tee sheet for the morning with or without a tournament. That means you would have finished your round by 5PM which is 2 hours and 45 minute before sunset. Obviously, this is plenty of time to complete your round.

Third, the threesome you were paired with had no issues and finished their round in 4.5 hours. Given the above circumstances, I am not sure why you think you were entitled to a free round or golf since Pearland Golf Club received zero dollars for your round of golf and you could have played in a reasonable amount of time on Masters Sunday which does not indicate any compensation should be due under the circumstances.

The balance of your complaint needs clarification as well. You indicate this is the third time this has happened to you. Pearland Golf Club honors all reservations made even when there is a booking error originating from Golf Now’s side. There have been “double bookings” that rarely occur due to a glitch in Golf Now’s booking software. In those cases, we have been able to accommodate the customer 100% of the time. I does not appear that any of your past reservations were not honored and all of your reservations were made through Golf Now.

Your customer history for rounds booked under your profile indicate 3 rounds played in 2017, two times you played as a single and the 3rd time you booked your tee time the middle of a member event. Since nobody that is currently on staff then is here now, I can’t speak to what happened there. It does appear you played that day, and it was a very light day indicating you probably played in 4 hours or less. The only other round you played under your name was in January of 2018, and it appears there were no issues with that round. Interesting that in 2017 you gave Pearland Golf Club 5 Stars and a great review. Your “Wronged Again” headline is misleading given your history.

Not sure what to do with your comment about flying in from out of town to play since your address indicates you live in Houston. Maybe you’ve moved out of town.

Pearland Golf Club receives many reviews, mostly 4 & 5 star, and any negative reviews are submitted for analysis. We can always improve on our customer service. In your case, it does not appear that any process or procedure could have been put in place to rectify the circumstances that led to your negative review since your main complaint is that you were going to play behind a tournament. You were correct, however, it was a beautiful day to be on the golf course and all of those 242 golfers that played seemed to have a great time.

Good value

This is a great course for the money. The staff was very friendly. It’s kind of off the beaten path as they say from Baton Rouge but worth it. The only issue is Golf Now has the wrong address listed. I had to call the pro shop to find it , I almost missed my tee time ..

Slow

There were two fivesomes in front of me and a group of 6 behind me. I saw groups of five all over the course. The greens were in good shape though. Groups of five players should be banned at all courses. Pace of play is ruining golfs future.

Overpriced

As a tourist you pay a lot more than what they call they’re local fee. The day I played no one was playing. So pace I play was good. But the back nine was tore up on several fairways by wild hogs. The guy I played with that day told me the courses in Oahu are hurting financially because they are over charging for tourist. Makes sense, this course was not worth the price. But it was cheaper than most and it does have great views.

For the heat of the summer in Houston, the course was in great shape. The value is worth the round. I enjoy this course, challenging but fair. The guy in the pro shop was a little rude though. But not my problem.

Great location

I played here years ago and it was not so great. The course has been remodeled and it is very much improved, I enjoyed my round. The course is challenging but also forgiving. Not hard to find errant shots. The course lay out us a little strange, but that's ok by me. As usual with golf lately, the course was a little backed up, but it was worth it.

The course was great and in good condition. However, it was the slowest round of golf I've ever played. I waited on every hole at least ten minutes. Some longer .
