Southwyck Golf Club

Good golf course to play at. Layout difficult to follow. Missed two holes because we got lost. Holes 4 and 5. Needs better sign postings for next hole. Also was not able to use golf pass discounts on website for this play. Not sure why not.

Good day. Desk manager nice. Greens in good shape.Pace good...

Greens are in average shape. Several have bad spots. They do a good job of placing pins away from bad spots. Fairways are hard and the ball runs. The one place that gets lots of water is in front of greens. Anything short will stick and go no where.

It’s an amazing layout, third round there since Christmas. It’s getting greener every week and the greens are all similar roll, some patches where you can tell good work is being done.
My favorite course to book last minute and head out the next day and play for little money. It has amazing holes.

I live on Southwyck and haven't played it years. It's been really sad to see the course run into the ground in the past 5 yrs. Before the pandemic they removed all bunkers and claimed it was to make the course more playable when everyone knew it was b/c they didn't want to maintain them. During the pandemic they took out all the water coolers and never brought them back. No explanation. Name another course that doesn't provide water! The layout is great but the fairways and greens are mostly terrible. They don't water. Every other course went through the same drought but Clear Creek and Country Place don't have 4 inch cracks in their fairways. I've been reading these consistently bad reviews since the pandemic and the mgmt responses have been the same for years. They just apologize for the conditions and say that they strive for a 5 star experience but yet nothing changes. I wish they could sell it to someone who will put some money into it. Just apologizing and doing nothing just makes it worse. My son plays golf for one of the local high schools and the team considers southwyck a joke and they never play it. All we can do as locals is continue to leave poor reviews and hope something changes.

Good value for the price. Course needs so tender love and care. Decent greens

Course ok. Staff very friendly. BUT WHEN ARE THEY GOING TO HAVE DRINKING WATER ON THE COURSE AGAIN?????

It's Houston, it's hot and the beverage cart girl leaves early.

The pace of play is good. The staff is always great. The driving range is always great. There are many spots on the scores were you are hitting off of hard dirt and weeds. Some greens are good, some greens are rough. I feel like this course has gone downhill slightly. There used to be water on several of the holes on the course, but there must’ve been a decision made to drain the water. It has certainly taken away the aesthetic appeal. The value is good, but for another $25, you can play on a course that is much higher quality. I love the location and people, but this course needs some TLC.

For $25 for 18 with a cart you're going to get exactly what you expect for that price playing this course. Greens are very patchy and not very well taken care of on most holes. Pace of play is a joke. I literally waited 35 minutes to tee off at hole 15. That should never happen. Overall though this course isn't bad if you just want to go out and play a round just don't set your expectations too high on the shape of the course.

The cart I had during my round quit running that morning after the 5th. hole. Luckily, I was on the cart path and not in the middle of the fare way. I reported the issue to the office who indicated they would get another cart to me right away. The cart was out of gasoline. This was obvious to me after raising the seat and noticing the empty transparent fuel tank. Fortunately, I was able to catch a ride from another player. I continued to play holes 6 through 9. At the clubhouse, I obtained a replacement cart and hurried to the tee box at 10 to unload my gear for a cart change over. It was then I heard a young worker call out “was I the one that needed a cart” he had in tow.

Sorry to say but the greens were lot better last time I played. They were free of any damage to the putting area. This time many of the greens have sandy area thru out!! Greens did roll ok.
The fairways are still bumpy as always but now free of cracks. Guest the rain helped. There’s grass in the fairways but no distinction between rough.
I play just to practice but not to post a score.
Wish the course was on better shape, love the layout even without bunkers.
Hopping improvements will come!!

Solid course, fairways and greens were in good condition for the price. But there were no bunkers, and the course is not USGA rated so you can’t post any scores on your handicap or play any net games.

Even though it started out as a confusion about our teatime, but the staff was accommodating and got us on the course with a 10 minute delay
