There's no doubt Red Wolf Golf Resort is a Texas-themed facility, complete with holes named after the Harrington's bulls (they are providers of bulls for professional rodeos) and a Southwestern-styled clubhouse. As for the golf course, Jay Riviere's design has always been considered a fine layout. Take advantage of the easier front nine by scoring well on the opening holes. No. 9 is the most difficult hole on the course. It shoots through a narrow opening uphill into the sloped fairway. This one is mean -- it was formerly a par 5 -- and requires a long approach over a lake.

Cannot beat the price

Not the greatest course in Houston, but well worth a 20 green fee. For this price, I will continue to play here again and again.

Worth the trip!

Pleasantly surprised with the conditions of the course, especially for the price. Fairways were a little dry, but we are in a drought. Greens were soft & receptive though and speed was just right. Fluffy, well maintained bunkers. Overall, a great value for a very challenging course and we'll worth the trip out to Huffman.

Mike the Magnificent ..... The Best Superintendant around.

I have been playing Red Wolf for a long time. I played the course more than 240 times since January 2012. The greens have been so consistent. Since Mike has taken over I don't notice a transition due to the seasons. He rolls them, sands, and aerofies them keeping them healthy. You must understand water limitations if you choose to complain about fairways. They are playable. The detail on this course is amazing if you saw this place in the 90's. Kudos to Mike he approachable and accountable. Red Wolf is great when you consider what Mike works with. Love this place.

Some of the fairways need a little TLC. Other than that the course is in great shape.

The price is great for this course. Like I said some of the fairways need a little TLC. The greens are in great shape. Huge and fast. The front desk personal is very friendly and very helpful. One thing I did like about it was that they give you a pin placement on the golf cart and its posted in the pro shop as you walk in. This course is a great for a person who hits it long and straight. Cause o.b. Comes into play on a few holes if your not in the fairway. When they say fairways and greens this track is one you must keep in the fairway or you will pay the price for any offshot.

Great value

Course in good shape. Very good value.
Greens were rolled nice.
Some of the fairways were a little thin.
Good pace of play.
Staff was helpful.
Kind of a far drive from downtown Houston, but worth the time.

value course

Good weekday value course, pace of play a bit slow behind a couple of slow foursomes on the back 9. No marshal to maintain pace and sand traps leave a lot to be desired, but overall an enjoyable outing.

Always a great value

Quickly becoming my go-to course as it's right across Lake Houston from my house and you just can't beat the greens fees for the quality of this course. I played in May and it was a bit dry, but the fairways have filled in a bit and the greens were running pretty true when I played on July 26th. The staff is always awesome. A lot more people playing on a Sunday. Go during the week and you practically have the place to yourself (Don't let that secret go too far).

This has become my course of choice. The greens are in great shape and there are several holes that will get your attention, especially #9.

Best I'd seen it in a long time

The course in overall the best condition i'd seen in maybe ever? The rough was clean and had levels. Tee boxes have been improved on a few of the holes. This course can be challenging on a number of holes. I would recommend this course not only for the value in terms of cost, but the experience is pleasant as well. ENJOY!!

More rain and watering would help the fairways. Would have liked to play faster.

A Hidden Treasure

It was a fifty mile drive from my house, but well worth it. I had not played the course in over twenty years, but was sure happy I decided to try it again.

The course was in great shape and was quite a challenge. The greens were some of the best I have played. An added suprise was that on Tuesdays and Thursdays, hot dogs and beer are only one dollar.

Green Fairways and Excellent greens!!

This was my first time playing this course and I was very IMPRESSED of the condition of the course. Pro shop was very cordial and explained everything to us. Fairways have plenty of grass. Greens rolled true . Pro shop said they have a new guy taking care of the course for the past 2 years. FYI, I play Windrose, Woodforest courses and for the value and course condtions, I would play this Red Wolf!

Course was in very good shap

In the last ten days my golfing buddy and I have played three different golf courses and I believe that Redwolf was it the better shape. All in all a very enjoyable outing (other than the heat). Redwolf is an hour drive for me but worth the drive, i like the way that when you are one hole you don't see whats happening on the other holes around you.

Great Greens/Poor Fairways

If putting is your forte then by all means this course is for you. The attention given to the greens is superb. That being said I have to wonder if this course had any sprinklers on the fairways. I often found myself in the middle of the fairway hitting off a combination of burnt grass and dirt. Hey for $20 it's still the best place to play for the money.

good greens but hard panned fairways

as always red wolf provides very interesting layout which is for me, very challenging. The greens are in good shape although a few are slower than the others due to coarser grass. The fairways really need immediate attention otherwise it will be in such irreparable damage that would take years to recover. I drove 305 yards because it rolled like it were on the cart path. Then I have to pick my ball up and lay it on some skimpy thin grass rather than scratch my club on the hard pan. If the fairways are as good as beacon lakes it would have been perfect. Im still giving it a 4 stars because it like challenge of the waters, nice big bunkers with good sand, dog legs, trees, crosswinds. I just hope they dont let the fairways go.

Here's my unsolicited two cents, i suggest aerating the fairways after the next big rain.

The Greens are in fantastic shape.. Best I have seen in years.

I very much like the course it is challenging and a great value. The greens are in great shape. I would like to see more work on improving the fairways with better turf coverage and less bare or thin lies when in the fairway.
