Desert Lakes is a decent course that is generally worth the money. The greens this year were in better shape than I remember them, although the fairways need some improvement. Not a difficult course but still fun.

This course is way overpriced. Staff friendliness changes from person to person. Some good, some just terrible. This was my second round this summer and I usually only go because my friends drag me here. Pace is always slow. They expect a 4.5 hour pace of play which is ridiculous. Only reason is the hackers on the course because they are staying at the resort. Both times the pace was really slow, and waited on almost every tee box. The conditions were a bit better this year but not what you would expect for the price. Will gladly play other courses in the area before this one.

This was my first time playing here and the conditions of the course were great. Really enjoyed the layout. Nothing overly difficult, a few placement shots here and there. Some elevation changes is what surprised me and made the round more enjoyable rather than a generic flat desert layout.

Great course with great conditions. Was a blast to play. Not overly challenging, and traditional Palmer design.

Course was in great condition for January. From tee box to green was very nice. Greens rolled really good. Was a fun course, bit challenging at times, with a few easier one sprinkled in. Would play again.

This is the second worse course conditions I've ever played. I usually tee it up 50-60 times a year and take a couple trips every year and have played nearly every course in the Houston area. Clover and dandelions were very prevelant throughout and the greens, were the poorest I've ever seen. There were a couple good fairways but that was it. The staff was very friendly and would be a nice place if the conditions were better but I won't be back.

Course was in overall good condition. Fairways were a little overgrown but I really think it had been too wet for them to mow. For a $23 round it was well worth the money. I will be going back, and hope they have he fairways mowed if we ever dry out.

If you have never played this course it is a must play. You won't find another course like this around with all the elevation changes. It plays short, and can make some good scores on a few holes. Hole 1 has a 150 ft drop! I have played this course for many years and play it every summer. Some summers have better course conditions than others but it is always in good shape compared to courses around. Don't pass this course up because it only has nine holes. You play the old Scottish links style of two tee boxes and two pins on every hole. It's currently the 7th highest golf course in the world.
