First time at Longwood

Pines was closed down for repair, should be opening back up. My only gripe about this course was the bunkers. From my understanding they're going to work on them next. Lots of standing water and just bad bunker conditions overall.

What could have been

Wonderful layout that has been destroyed by the floods and lack of resources. 1/2 the tee boxes are weeds or dirt, all bunkers are unplayable and majority of fairways are spotty at best. Cart paths should all be replaced as well.

Living within 5 minutes of Longwood brings me back every few months in hopes of improvement. Steady decline is all I seem to find. Unless this course changes management or ownership it should be thought of as a 20.00 course.

Disappointed

Cart paths had dips full of water,lots of bare spots around all cart paths. Probably due to the rain we had. $46.00 to much for the conditions at 2 O'clock on a Sunday

A personal favorite

I've played this course several times and it's easily one of my favorite courses in the Houston area. Great layout and landscape with a secluded feel and holes providing all levels of difficulty.

I can't wait to play it again.

Longwood - Still a Disappointment

We tried Longwood again after reading a few positive reviews. I live close to Longwood and would love to be able to report that enough improvements have been made to make it part of our groups course rotation, but unfortunately it will probably be another 3 years before we give Longwood another chance.

The Positives - Clubhouse staff and starter were friendlier than we remember.

The Not-So-Positives - Tee box areas are small, weedy and not flat. Fairways had been aerated but the chunks of dirt were left on the ground. Greens had many bumps and ballmarks and were extremely slow. Sand traps were completely unplayable.

The Unforgivable - Round took 6 1/2 hours due to one foursome directly in front of our group that by the time we reached the 10th hole had fallen SEVEN HOLES behind the group in front of them. For the last 2 hours there were a steady stream of carts passing us from behind as most everyone just gave up and quit. Not a single marshall was spotted the entire day.

Perhaps some day the Cypress Lakes group that has taken over the Longwood golf operation will correct some of these issues. Until then, as much as I would like to be able to recommend Longwood, just can't do it.

Nice layout

Played for the first time and wished I had come out sooner. Course was in good condition considering the time of year. Liked the layout although the pace of play was a bit slow. Staff was very friendly and helpful. Will definitely be back.

Good round

Course layout is challenging and fun.
Fairways were dry due to time of year and ball rolled extra 20 + yds.
Greens were a little bumpy but in fair condition.
Great course to play!

Improved Greens

The greens have improved a great deal since the last time I played the course!! I played Pine/Palmetto combo.This course has negative reviews because of their greens, but it looks like course management has taken it to heart and they are working on it. The tee boxes looks like their next step at improving, since a lot of them don't have a lot of grass, some none,so give it some time. Longwood staff, thanks for listening to our reviews.
I found the fairways in good condition
If you've never played this course, I recommend it.
All 27 holes area a pleasant challenge.Trees line the entire course, but the fairways are generous.
The greens have nice undulating breaks, but nothing too severe. Several tees to choose from depending on handicap.
The fairways have slopes and mounds to keel your next shot interesting.

Don't waste your money here-STAY AWAY

When you first walk into the pro shop you are greeted by a rude gentleman behind the counter. You then proceed to the starter to check in for the cart but another rude employee who only cares if he finishes his Sudoku. We approached the tee box 10 minutes early & had to watch 3 groups tee off ahead of us. The pace of play was horrible all round as we had to wait about 5-10 minutes every shot. The fairways, rough & bunkers are in horrible condition. The greens are in horrible condition, like they put sand down on the entire green then spray painted it green to appear nice. Every single tee box is tore up and the sand they use to fill the divots does not have grass seed. It took 5 1/2 hours to play a round of golf. It was $60 to play a round which is highly over-priced for the condition of the course & the way the employee behind the pro shop desk & starter treat you. This course is 5 minutes from my house but I would rather drive 45 minutes to a better course & spend my money there.

Fun and Challenging Course

Played Pine to Palmetto and had a great time. Pines is definitely challenging but has a fun design. The greens were recently worked on and not very good conditions.

A little disappointed

Went and played Longwood pine and Palmetto yesterday. It was a beautiful day, they over booked Pine and it took us for ever to get the first 9 holes in. When we finally got to Palmetto an older man jumped in front of us and took his time even though the sun was disappearing fast. Needless to say we did not finish.

Same problems every time I play here

Pace of play is HORRIBLE! They have no marshals going around to speed things up and they are always ALWAYS backed up. 2 groups on each hole makes it a long and not so enjoyable round. That makes this experience 4 times in a row now that this has happened. Longwood is the course that causes my friends and I not to get memberships with them and Cypress Lakes. You are better off playing anywhere else seriously.

Joke!

Longwood keeps telling people, "New Management is improving things." The truth is this course is as bad as I have ever seen and should we a $35 weekend rate at the most. Many areas of the course are unplayable.

It's just very meh

sand traps were washed out to a large extent, the greens were furry and slow. Sad because the layout is actually nice. Best attribute was cart girls, some talent on the bev cart for sure. The course even at $50 is over priced. And they let their Usga ratings lapse to its not even a course you can turn your score in

Played Longwood several times - sort of my home course. The greens are starting to look good, hopefully they will stay that way. Fairways are full. Good job to the course superintendent!
