Dam Those Lakes

Really enjoyed getting to play here. We were in the area and found this course on the app. Did not disappoint. John, one of the Marshalls, saw we were waiting for the group infront of us and stopped and talked with us while they were finishing up. He was knowledgable about the course and was a cool guy to talk to while waiting. The driving range has a backdrop of NRG Stadium and the Astro dome! Make sure and bring an extra sleeve with you, the lakes are unforgiving, there are some blind spots to challenge every type of golfer.

GREAT COURSE

One of the best courses around the Houston area hands down. Greens were excellent, fairways smooth, rough was rough. I played the tips and you will 100% need that little caddy book in the clubhouse to help with your yardages and carry distances. My new favorite course!

Well kept course

I really enjoyed golfing here. The course was well kept, especially during the summer when most golf courses tend to get very dry. Aside from being a well-kept course the staff was very nice and friendly. I would love to golf here again.

Great Course(s) in Great Condition

Haven't played Wildcat in a good while, but checked out the Lakes course and it was in great condition overall, especially considering the extreme heat and lack of rain in the Houston area lately. Greens were great and the facilities (practice and clubhouse) were well kept, place is still one of the top notch public courses around Houston!

Great condition

Even though we’re in a drought, they are keeping this course in great condition. They are watering it so much that there were wet spots in some of the fairways, but I appreciated it.

Wildcat during summer heat!

Golf course was challenging with many water hazards.

My only dissatisfaction was the permiter of the club house looks like they are behind on maintenance and the golf carts are getting really old. I had to get a second golf cart because I had issues with the first one.

Pre Tournament Play

Course was in great condition overall. Only saw one green that had some rough spots. Greens were very fair late in afternoon under Texas heat! Some construction being done near cart path on a later hole.

Good course, a little pricey, markings not good

Overall good condition, not well marked with directions to holes. Very disappointing to not have pin placements or flag colors on greens. Was told new carts, gps etc coming but been coming for months. 75.00 weekday

Played a very hot, Hot Deal

I have zero complaints about the Lakes course at Wildxar. Fairways and greens in terrific shape. We played on a 100 degree day, but still enjoyed the day. Can't wait to get back out there again soon.
