Great Course, Good People

My buddy and I played a 5:10 pm tee time on the course and this was our first time at Cinco Ranch. They were very helpful providing instructions for first-time players. They informed us of the two different driving ranges located on the course. They were able to provide a great overview of the layout of the course.

On this particular day, it was very windy and it sprinkled for all of two minutes. It was really busy for a Sunday evening. There were tons of people at the driving range and finishing up their games. I believe we were the last tee time and that was great because there wasn't anyone behind us. The 5:10 tee time only allowed for us to play 12 holes which was fine for the price.

We got paired with two other gentlemen who were very nice and better than us at golf. They were patient and helpful.

There were no drink carts or restrooms so make sure you stop at the club house between holes 9 and 10. Overall, the greens were great for all of the rain we've been getting in the Houston area. The course was challenging but not impossible. A lot of the holes have ponds and are next to the bayou so be prepared to lose balls unless you're good.

Great course, great people!

Sanded greens

Took a while to adjust putting on the sanded greens.
Also it appeared that mowing of the fairways was a couple days overdue. There was a noticeable lack of roll. Traps were in rough shape with mud and some standing water. On a positive note, the Marshall does an outstanding job as does the crew in the cart barn.

Solid Course

Cinco Ranch is a solid option for Houston courses. One of the few driving ranges you can hit off grass. Challenging greens and well kept fairways.

Great value for money, slow that day

Awesome course with some challenging holes.
Great condition for a public course.
Pace of play was super slow that day, but it was spring break (people with kids on the course) and pretty packed. Would definitely play again

Cinco Ranch Very Playable

Greens were in great shape with challenging pin placements, fairways and sand traps generally in good shape, tee boxes a bit threadbare as was the driving range. Good value for the money.

Excellent Greens, Hard Ground Fairways

We enjoyed playing Cinco Ranch for the first time.
Pace of play was very good for afternoon ~3.5 hours for 3 some.

Greens are in excellent shape - relatively fast and smooth. I appreciate the local rule of not pulling the pin as many public courses in Houston area develop "volcanos" around the cup due to pulling the flag.
5 foot puts rolled well.

Of note, the lack of rain has caused the fairways to be very hard. Well-hit Drives rolled an extra 20-30 yards, making the holes shorter and easier to score.

Only negative is that the carts don't have GPS.

Late tee time

410 pm, I knew there would be no chance of finishing 18. That said, I still managed 11 holes on until dark. Greens were the best I’ve ever seen them…smooth and lightning fast. Glad I practiced some downhill putts. Marshall gets everyone organized despite some arriving late.

Surprised

They run everyone through like cattle. I prefer other places for the money. The greens were in good shape but there are plenty of courses that are just as good for much less.
