Course
Overall course was in good shape considering the extreme heat and drought conditions.
KS Duffer in TX
Facility well run. Fairways pretty toasty. Wide landing areas, 17 and 18 toughest holes. Plenty of sand traps. 100 deg day more water jugs would of been nice. Great post round beer and burger part of green fees. Glad I played it.
Thanks so much for the great review, newkyqt. We look forward to welcoming you back to our course soon. Thanks for choosing Houston National Golf Club.
Hello, dkhosla. We appreciate the review. You rated us 3-stars which means there is room to improve on your recent experience at Houston National Golf Club. Let us know, in the comments, how and where you would like to see changes from the course. Thanks for the feedback!
Great greens, not so great fairways.
Course was fun to play! I was impressed with the greens, but the fairways left a lot to be desired. If you can get the greens in that kind of shape I would expect the fairways to be much better.
Thank you for your review. We appreciate your feedback and apologize for any disappointment you experienced with the fairways. We will use your comments to improve our course in the future.
Greens in excellent shape; fairways only so-so
Rough and mounds bad shape. Good deal of rain will go a long way to helping course consitions
Hello, jimardissono. Thank you for visiting us at Houston National Golf Club. We appreciate your 4-star rating and review. We hope you join us for another round soon.
Needs work
Greens were in great shape, fairways need a lot of help.
We appreciate you taking the time to review the course and rate us, cemotley. We are going to pass on your feedback to the team. Thanks for visiting Houston National Golf Club, and we hope to see you again in the future.
Went down hill
All the short game areas were closed, putting was setup for a kids clinic but there were no other places to putt and the short game chipping area was closed and the mats mats on the range were like hitting off concrete. For the course it was dirt fairways with little to no grass. The greens on the other hand were green and rolling well. Should have played somewhere else
We apologize for the inconvenience you experienced during your visit. We appreciate your feedback and will take it into consideration in order to improve our facilities. Thank you for leaving a review.
Good shape considering Weather
Course is dry, so I can’t knock the course because the weather we have been having in Texas but the Greens were in Great shape, able to hit and stay.. Great Value, this is my go to course!

Hello and thank you for your 5-star rating! We're delighted you enjoyed your round. Please book another round with us soon, and thanks for choosing Houston National Golf Club!
We need some rain!!!
The course is suffering from the effects of heat and drought we have in Houston. Fairways pretty dried out’ but the greens were in great shape. Pace of play was sorta slow due to a foursome a few groups ahead of us. Marshall should have sped them up.
We apologize for any inconvenience caused by the heat and drought affecting the fairways. However, we are glad to hear that the greens were in great shape. Thank you for bringing the slow pace of play to our attention, we will address this with our Marshall. Your feedback is greatly appreciated.
booked two tee times & then had a friend wanting to join in so i called into the pro shop & then said it’s wide open so i could just book another tee time close to it. me and my second player showed up but the third couldn’t make it due to car issues. i told pro shop and they were not helpful at all and wouldn’t budge on giving me any type of credit or refund or anything. it was really annoying mostly cause the course was absolutely awful, definitely the worst i’ve played in the greater houston area over the past several years & it’s extremely overpriced.
fairways are hard as concrete, sand bunkers are uneven & also partially super hard and partially wet.
the maintenance staff was on the green while we were taking approach shots, three different times.
there was no cartgirl, and no water in the water buckets that were spread out amongst the course.
We apologize for the inconvenience you experienced with regards to your tee time and the unhelpful response from our pro shop. We appreciate your feedback regarding the course conditions and the lack of amenities, and we will work on addressing these issues. Thank you for taking the time to leave a review.
Not Handling Drought Conditions
This course is not handling this summer’s drought conditions as well as other golf courses in the area. It’s too bad, because this has been a great place to play golf in the past.
We apologize for any inconvenience caused by our handling of this summer's conditions. We appreciate your feedback and will continue to work towards improving the golfing experience. Thank you for your review.
Back after nine month hiatus
The clubhouse has been refurbished and looks great. The greens were understandably slow as they need protection from the searing summer heat…but rolled true and I sank a 25 footer on 14 for a birdie off the fringe. The fairway on 2 has been stressed so it’s cart path only on the long par five dog leg. This makes it tough on senior players in the heat walking to and from the ball to the cart…also slow.
Thank you for taking the time to leave a review. We appreciate your feedback on the refurbished clubhouse and we apologize for any inconvenience caused by the slow greens and the stressed fairway. We will take your comments into consideration to continuously improve the experience for all players.
Terrible Course Conditions
No rain and very hot but that's no excuse for the condition this course is in. More dirt than grass!
Hello, jtriplett. Thank you for reviewing the course. We would like to apologize for your recent experience.
We're sorry to hear you were less than satisfied during your round. We pride ourselves on our providing great service and the high-quality standards we maintain.
We would like to make things right. Please reach out to our management team at the pro shop.
We hope to hear from you soon.
Course was basically dead. Most fairway shots are from bare dirt or dead grass. Dust clouds every time your ball hits the ground. This includes the greens.
Hi u314161652932, thanks for sharing your feedback. We’re sorry your experience didn’t match your expectations. It was an uncommon instance and we’ll do better in the future.
Please feel free to reach out to us with any further comments, concerns, or suggestions you wish to share. We would love to make things right if you give us another chance.
Solid course
Fairways could really use a nice watering but the greens were great. Great pace. Small complaint is that there are houses surrounding a ton of the holes. Hoping they will give the fairways some love but will play again. The full rate of $80 would seem a bit high for this course though.
Thank you for taking the time to leave a review. We appreciate your feedback and apologize for any inconvenience caused by the state of our fairways. We will make sure to address this issue in order to improve the overall experience. We're glad to hear that you enjoyed the greens and the pace of play. We look forward to welcoming you back for another round in the future.
