I dont normally throw out reviews but this course needs one.
Mr. Clark at checkin was great and very friendly. Range & chipping green were shut down for overseeding no biggie. The range has never been great(mats).
What ticked us off was as we walked up to grab a cart we were scolded heavily by an older gentleman who’s first words to us were”hey what do you think your doing” we told him we had a tee time to which he stated the carts were off limits and i would have to walk over to cart barn to ask for a cart. Walked in and Mr james was nice but upset obviously at something. We got a cart and got to first tee tailed closely by another gentleman saying we couldnt use the cart we were given and we would have to take this ole busted cart. The cart sputtered, rattled, had no windshield(it sprinkled most of the round) and overall needed to he retired. We were then asked to tee off 30 minutes early because they had a tournament that was overbooked and they needed to get people out of the way.
Calming ourselves down we took off on 1 and were met with mediocre course conditions to say the least. The maintenance crew was mowing the fairways and insisted on sitting right in the middle flashing lights at us to hit. The bunkers had more mud then sand on most and the greens had patches where repairs were made that looked horrible.
Overall i wouldnt play the course again anytime soon. To many courses in Houston for the hassle we were dealt and the course shape.

The el dorado course was in really good shape for the amount of play we saw. The layout was challenging and tight with most holes offering water or OB if you ventured one way or the other. The greens played beautifully. They were receptive and rolled so well it was ridiculous. The facility overall is nice but the driving range needs help. They make you hit off old mats with some old nasty balls. Your better seeved hitting some chips and putts.
