Golfnow sucks!

Golfnow has known that only 15 holes are playable at Baytowne for over a week, yet there is no indication of that on the Golfnow website. We drove a long way to arrive and find out only 15 holes are playable. The management told us Golfnow has called them every day for an update on the problem and has been told repeatedly the repairs will not be finished until at least 12/15,, yet Golfnow leads players to think they will get to play a full round. Deliberately misleading by Golfnow!

Neglected tee boxes

Tee boxes were in bad shape. Most had little to no grass on them. Rest of course conditions were good.

The course was in good shape,although fairways a little wet in places.

Very pleased with my first experience at Raven. Tee boxes were not up to par with condition of the course. Appears the tee boxes have been neglected . Very nice layout . It is a long course, even from the White tees compared to other courses in the area. I will definitely come back!

Don't waste your money!

Worst greens I've ever played on. Riddled with dead dirt spots and poanna grass. Like putting on a gravel parking lot. Fairway grass sparse on most holes. Obviously no money being spent to maintain the course.

Satisfied first time customer

Course is well maintained except for fairway on #13 which is a disaster. Overall layout is nice , fairways and greens in real good condition. Golfnow rate I got was a bargain at $38 all in. I would definitely come back and play Baytowne again .
