Houston Oaks
Houston Oaks has consistently been in great shape this entire year. I think it's the best value in Central Kentucky. Thanks.
Disappointed
Greens and fairways recently aerated and plugged which made play difficult especially on first nine holes. Staff was watering several of the holes which also affected play. Although this course has great potential our party would have chosen another option if we had known about recent maintenance.
Mmiller793, Thank you for the review. We strive to inform our golfers on course conditions before they come play. We apologize we failed to do this in your instance. We are expecting course conditions to be pristine this year and hope to have you back to experience the course the way it should be experienced.
Overpriced.
The over all condition of this course was great. Carts are equipped with a great GPS system that gives you yardage’s to the hazards and the greens from your location on the course.
In my opinion, this course was way overpriced. I made a 3 hour drive to play this 4.5 star course and it was a disappointment. Layout was nothing grand and I’ve played courses that are much nicer for almost half the cost. If you’re traveling much of a distance just to play this course, Save your time and money.
Isaaclrhodes, Thank you for the review. We always strive for a great experience for our golfers. We hope that you give us another try in 2018 as we are very excited for what this year has to bring!
Paris, KY
The course was challenging, particularly the back nine. Warmer than normal conditions existed and drained one's energy level. Perhaps the conditions led to groups ahead being slow and causing those behind to wait on every shot.
Course just off US68 (Paris Pike), If in Lexington area worthwhile to try this course.
Thank you for the kind words! We are excited that you enjoyed playing here and hope to see you back soon!
Thank you for the 5 star review! Hope to see you back at the course soon!
Always Enjoy Houston Oaks
Course was in great shape on a beautiful Sunday afternoon. A few bunkers were on the rough side, but overall the course is in really good shape. Some challenging holes, and a few holes that even an average golfer can score on. You won't be disappointed playing this course. Highly recommend!
Thank you for the 4 star review! We are working as we speak on the bunkers. We hope to see you back out in 2018!
Great Course!
Definitely worth playing. Tees, fairways, and greens are excellent.
Thank you for the 5 star review! We look forward to seeing you in 2018!
Excellent value
Beautiful layout..but the greens are beginning to need more attention although a good majority of the condition is the apparent unwillingness of many players to repair ball marks.
Thank you for the 4 star review! We hope to see you back out in 2018!
Great Value
I usually try and make it out to Houston Oaks at least a couple times a year, and this course once again did not disappoint. Only criticism of the course would be a couple burnt up fairway spots and a handful of bunkers that could use some fresh sand.
As usual, the greens here were fantastic and rolling very fast for a public track, would estimate around an 11. Pace of play was excellent; our threesome got around in just under 4 hours on a Sunday afternoon. Would recommend this place to anyone, great value for what you pay.
Thank you for the 5 star review! I am happy to report that we have paid extra attention to our bunkers this off-season. We hope to see you back out in 2018!
Beautiful course
Needed to find course near Lexington and chose this one because of other reviews. We were not disappointed! It was a great bargain. The course was in excellent condition and offered just enough challenge to keep you interested. Great pace of play. The pro shop staff were awesome! Thoroughly enjoyed the course
Thank you for the 5 star review! We pride ourselves on customer service so we are happy to hear that you enjoyed the staff. We are excited for 2018 and hope to see you back soon!
Thank you for the 4 star review!
Great Course
Having lived in the Lexington area for 2 years now and sampling the various courses in the area, many of which are excellent tracks..I've come to the conclusion this is the best of the bunch on which the public can play. The greens were superb, I could have putted on the fairways, and the layout was different on every hole. And the hot dogs were delicious! My new favorite course!
Wow! Thank you for the kind words! We are happy to hear that we are your favorite golf course! If you liked us before, just wait until you see whats in store in 2018! Hope to see you soon!
Nice way to start the week
Course in good condition given the hot dry weather. Course worker's doing there best to manage dry spots. Always a pleasure to play this course, could be the best public course in the Lexington area.
Thank you for the review! We are looking forward to seeing you back at the course in 2018!
We had a great time!
Have always enjoyed playing this course. Well maintained, and just the right amount of difficulty. One of the best in central Kentucky.
Thank you for the review! Please come visit in 2018!
Great Course
Houston oaks is one of the best courses around Lexington. The course is very open, but has just enough hazards to make it challenging. Greens were nice, and the price was good at $20 per person to ride. The carts have GPS so you always have a good idea of distance. I played during the week but the course was not crowded at all. Will play here again!
Thank you for the 5 star review! We look forward to seeing you back out in 2018 as we have lots of fun things in store for our golfers!
Thank you for the 5 star review!
Great Deal
Great deal ( $18 ), great tee time ( 1:06 pm ) and the course was impeccable, the greens were fast and hard to read, you felt like you were on the tour, 1 of the best courses I've played
Thank you for the 5 star review! Hope to see you here in 2018!
