Overall Review
I used to play Longwood a lot, but their greens went to pot, so this was the first time I've played the course in a little over 2 months. The greens were is great shape, compared to before, even though they still had a few bare spots, but not in strategic places. I have to give the new guy they hired to fix up the course kuddos on the new look.

Nice golf course with good driving range and putting area. Nice club house. I will play it again.
Definitely come out and see us again! Also, don't forget to check us out on Facebook, we have special offers just for our Facebook fans!
Great course great value staff needs to be friendlier
The course was in good shape we teeed off at 2:15pm Thursday. We were supposed to play the pine/post we stop at the clubhouse for lunch as we were returning to our cart to make the turn the Marshall rudely said we are going to have to change our back side because we were taking to long. I didn't mind that but we were spending our money in the club house. Just work on how you deliver the message to guest.
Daniel,
We are so sorry to hear that our staff at the course was rude. I would like to ensure you that we hold our staff to an exemplary level of customer service and I deeply apologize for your experience. We hope you will still come out again and give us another chance.
Great course
Two things I like when playing golf are the greens and the fairways. Both were great here at the course.
Thanks for your great review! We hope you come back to see us soon!
Course was nice
Fairways good green very good like the hazards course challenging perfect for tournaments
Hi benitobinaraogatan43,
Thank you for your kind words about our course! Don't forget to Like us on Facebook to stay up to date with events/specials we have happening out on the course! Hope to see you soon!
Greens need work along with bunkers
Some of the greens really have bare spots, Big bare spots. Reminded me of Chambers Bay greens. Bunkers needed work. Nothing done since rain
Lee,
Thank you for taking the time to review the course. We have recently acquired Longwood Golf Club. We are aware of the Chambers Bay-esque green conditions at the course. Major renovations are underway and we hope to see the course in great condition soon. You can follow the renovations across social media by searching the hastags #DoinWork and #LongwoodGC. We hope you'll come out and play again.
Dissapointment!
I am not typically an online review person, but everyone should be warned about this course. We played Post Oak to Pine. The Post Oak Course was in the worst condition of any course I have played in the last 10 years. The Tee Boxes, Fairways, Greens, and Bunkers were all in awful condition. Specifically, large areas of grass were missing and the bunkers were hard packed sandy mud. If you have any golf ability or experience, you will be disappointed by the conditions. Putting is just unfair on this course. The Pine course was in better condition, but still had large areas of the greens that had no grass.
korylagr,
We apologize for the current state of the course. We are aware that the course needs work. We have begun major renovations across the course and hope to have things looking better soon. We'll be posting pictures of improvements online and hope to have you back out when renovations are complete.
Very cool
Nice course Very challenging the greens need a little work but still a great course
Great people, Nice course, average greens
Took a little over 5 hours to play due to a foursome about 3 groups ahead. We picked up a fourth on the 10th which helped the pace quite a bit. Course was in pretty good shape except for the greens seemed to be a little bare. Enjoyed my day and will definitely play again at Longwood.
Rundown
This course is in poor shape compared to previous years. The tee boxes are not level. The greens have a lot of large dead spots and are bumpy. It looks like they have really cut back on the use of chemicals and maintenance at this course. Many dead pine trees have been cut up and just left around the course. Eroded areas from flooding have not been fixed. Considering the discounted price of $60 it does not compare well to other surrounding courses. Pace of play was erratic as the foursome in front of us did a lot of hunting and fishing for their balls (on a Sunday morning).
still a work in progress
The layout is attractive and challenging. I enjoy playing here, but as the course continues to change hands, conditions go up in down. Presently, the fairways are in good condition. Traps are pathetic, and the greens need serious attention. There have been upgrades in customer service, as one no longer encounters the rude old curmudgeons who formerly served as starters.
It would make a great purchase opportunity for Canongate, Or perhaps, with Clear Creek as an example, the County could purchase and contract out maintenance.
Good round Greens need some work
The greens at longwood need some work, but they made sure i was aware of the bumps before hand
This course is in terrible shape
Most of the tee boxes look like a cow pasture and all of the greens are like putting on a gravel road. I you are willing to pay $56 a person there are several courses in the area that are less expensive and have great course conditions. This course has 3 9-hole courses and they don't tell you what course you will be playing for your 2nd 9 holes. If you call them to make the tee time to be sure you play the two course you want there tee rate is $20 more person. This course is not worth $56 a person.
Poor greens and fairways
Greens in very bad shape. Fairways hard and little grass. Everything cut too short. Some of the worst in Houston area.Told they are putting some money into the course to improve things. It is going to take a while since it is in such bad shape.
Greens have to be addressed
Great course layout but the greens vary from poor to terrible.
very poor conditions
Greens were terrible. Play was slow. The only time they pushed was when we were asked to hurry up because they they had a scramble and we needed to get off the course. We were not told about scramble when we booked tee time.
Bad Time
Greens weren't taken care of! Staff couldn't get it together for our tee-time due to tournament on 3 different changes. Conflicting with fellow Golfers!!
Good Location but needs some TLC
The course is in a handy spot for me and I have played there three times this spring. The condition of the course has declined over the last month.
The greens were very inconsistent and even after a week of rain, nothing would stick. There was a hail storm the night before I had played but most of the greens were too firm for any damage. Fairways were above average shape. Tee boxes were as inconsistent as the greens. I hope a streak of more predictable weather helps get the maintenance back to where this course was in March.
Poor green and tee box conditions
This is the second time I've played this course and it's usually a great course for the money, but this time the green and tee box conditions were terrible. The last time I played course conditions were excellent, so I'm not sure what has changed at Longwood. I wouldn't recommend this course to someone, at least until they fix the green conditions.
