Stonebridge at Newport
Played On 02/02/2024Fun Course, Grrens need help
Course was in decent condition overall, considering the winter weather. New concrete cart path repairs was good to see. Cart girl was visible, as was the Marshal, but he didn’t help out with the slow regulars in front of us. We waited on every hole for them to hack their way through. Greens were fairly smooth, but were brown & spongy. GN prices are a nice plus!

Played On 12/15/2023Nice Course
Course was in good shape except for the greens were in need. They mostly rolled okay, but weren’t very green. The grounds crew have done a nice job clearing out debris & tree clutter at the edges. It was nice to play without sprinklers going. Carts were clean & ran well. The Hog damage from the past wasn’t as visible.
Lady Bird Johnson Municipal Golf Club
Played On 11/17/2023Great Course
This course is in good condition & the scenery is always a plus! The addition of the large clock & surrounding rock garden is very nice & indicative of the extra touches you get when playing at LBJ. The staff are friendly & accommodating. Will definitely be back every chance I get.
Indian Shores Golf Course
Played On 04/12/2023DON’T BOOK!!
Course will add $15 to any GN booking when you arrive.
Tried to play & course conditions were terrible. Owner quit buying scorecards, pencils, drinks & cart parts. Everywhere weeds can grow were uncut & high, tee boxes, fairways. Was told when I checked in that May 8 was the last day to be open. Should close now or not charge to tough it out on this course. The Only positive was the greens weren’t Crap, like the rest of this place. Won’t waste $$ before May 8. Too bad!!

Played On 12/28/2022Fun course except for Wet Greens & Overbooked
Played on 12-28-22. This course is one of my favorite places to play & I usually play here every 2 weeks. Good layout, carts are clean/run well & the pro shop staff are always friendly. Water stations are a nice plus & the prices are usually reasonable.
Negatives- Greens are over watered & it makes walking/putting very difficult! Some of the fairways suffer from the same issue. (It was Not rain related) I’ve seen sprinklers going well after sunrise & while players are trying to play. Would timers on the sprinkler system (for early soaking) be possible? Apparently no player was turned away yesterday & we waited for the log jam to clear on every hole. Looks like they overbooked.

Played On 12/06/2022Sprinkler Timers!!!
I really enjoy the layout & pace of this course, but the watering at early morning is annoying. The greens are standing water or sloppy at best. I don’t understand why sprinkler timers coming on before daylight can’t be instituted at this course. If you watered around 3-4am, wouldn’t it soak in a little before 7am tee times? Am I the only player that hates wading water unnecessarily on the greens? Cart paths need some fill in. Carts were in good shape. Pro shop Purvis is always friendly!

Played On 10/11/2022Good Course
Watering course while players are out is not good customer service. Could this be done before course opens for play? Perhaps.
Hog damage is coming back again. Might be time to reduce the herd.
Despite these minor inconsistencies, this course is fun to play. Pro shop worker Mike is always friendly.
Red Wolf Golf Resort
Played On 09/20/2022Nice course, good condition
I play here once a week & the course is in good condition. Could the greens & tee boxes be improved? Yes. Would it be a good idea to water the course before play begins early mornings? Of course! Carts are in good shape & the course is fun to play.

Played On 09/13/2022Very Good Course, Needs Sprinkler Timers
This is my favorite local course. I really like the layout, carts are good, fairways are smooth, greens & cart paths still need extra attention.
My complaint is about watering the course as players are starting play. I don’t understand why the course can’t be watered a few hours before the first scheduled tee time. It makes the fairways & greens too wet and putting very difficult. Maybe some timers would be a good idea? Pro shop worker Purvis was very friendly, as usual.

Played On 07/27/2022Very Good Course
Pro shop worker (Purvis) is consistently friendly. Cold water stations are appreciated. Greens are good, could be better. Still seeing some hog or other critter damage on some greens & T boxes. Construction is still bothersome. Carts are clean & Overall, this is a nice & fun course to play.

Played On 03/06/2022Need Sprinkler Timers
We enjoyed playing the course until we saw the water soaked, sloppy greens from the sprinkler system. I can’t understand why there’s no other time to soak the greens than right before players start their game. It would seem that timers would be a good idea or have a worker start watering a few hours before the course play begins. A working Marshal to keep pace of play moving would be a plus. Positives- tee boxes, carts & cold water stations. Fairways were decent.
Atascocita Golf Club - Point/Shores Course
Played On 11/22/2021Good Course-Too Wet
This course would be much better to play on if the sprinklers weren't drenching the grounds as players are on the course. I'm not a grounds keeper, but it seems like auto timers on the sprinkler system, that came on a few hours before the first tee time, would reduce the sloppy mess & water puddles we have to walk through. Also, it would be nice to see water stations back on the course, since all other Covid measures have been removed. (masks, flag pole & bunker rake access) Greens were in good condition, other than too wet from sprinklers. A roving Marshall would be a nice addition, to keep the large groups moving.
Golf Club of Houston - Tournament Course
Played On 11/07/2021Great Course
Course conditions were great! Greens were very fast & immaculate. Drink cart girl was friendly and visible on front & back nine. Starter Joe was awesome & worked to get us moving on time. Unfortunately after that, we waited on every hole, never saw a marshal & our round took 5 hours. Was surprised to see that both of our carts were dirty, but they ran well. Despite the slow group in front of us, we enjoyed playing this course & will come back when we catch some discounted prices.

Played On 10/06/2021Going down
Some of the greens are rough looking & bumpy. The new home construction on top of several front 9 holes is NOT a welcome sight & will negatively affect the enjoyment of these holes. Saw a Marshall drive by one time, but he didn’t help move the slow players ahead of me. It was nice to see cold water on the course. Grass is too high beside the fairways. (Wouldn’t notice that if I hit it straight)

Played On 07/28/2021Improved Conditions
The course was in better shape than from a few months ago. A few of the greens were a little rough, but playable. There’s were water leaks near some of the greens & a few tee boxes were very sandy, but overall it was in good shape. Nice to have cold water back on the course. Bunkers were very much improved & the carts ran well and were clean.

Played On 06/08/2021Good, Could be Better
I like playing this course & enjoy the GN special rates. The new cart path concrete was a needed improvement & made the drive a lot smoother. Fairway drainage is still an issue & no water stations are a hot topic. Also, there’s enough players during the week to have a Marshal & drink cart available. Greens were in good shape.
Koasati Pines At Coushatta
Played On 05/31/2021Top Notch Course!
We really enjoyed playing at Koasati Pines. All areas of play were in great condition & it was a fun, but tough course to play.The GPS carts were very helpful, as long as you paid attention to the warnings.The two water & ice stations at the nice restrooms were helpful & appreciated. My only complain is that there were no drink carts seen on the course & that would have been a nice amenity enjoyed at most every Texas course I've played. Small issue compared to the well maintained, beautifully landscaped Louisiana Golf Gem we were able to enjoy yesterday. Would love to come back again.
Tour 18 Houston
Played On 04/12/2021Tee Boxes & Bunkers need work.
Why are the Water cans not back in place? Bunker rakes are back, no flag restrictions & no Covid mask rules for staff or customers. Why no water for golfers? Also, the new home construction area on the back 9 around holes 16 & 17 are drastically changing the look & feel of the course in a negative way.The new apartment complex on the back 9 was tough to see so close to the course & now more intrusions to the ambience of the course is not a good thing. What's next, a sewer plant or machine shop? Greens, fairways & golf carts were in good shape.

Played On 04/08/2021Decent Conditions
Greens & Cart path need some work. Overall the course was in decent condition. Carts were clean & ran well. Hopefully the water cans will return soon. Lower Hot Deal prices would also be appreciated.
Indian Shores Golf Course
Played On 03/27/2021NO MORE GOLF NOW/PASS BOOKINGS!!
The golf shop worker said they would not accept anymore GN tee times. He said GN gives them no money from the bookings & they were tired of losing money to GN players. There were several signs posted that read Indian Shores would not accept GN bookings. I had prepaid 2 Hot Deal tee times for 9am & he would not accept the bookings. I felt caught in the middle of a fight I had no blame in & was very uncomfortable. I like this course and will probably stay away until this issue is resolved.
We appreciate you taking the time to review the course and rate us. Thank you for the 4 stars! We aim for a 5-star experience, so we always welcome feedback for improvement. Thank you for playing Tour 18 Houston.
