Longwood Golf Club - Palmetto Course

The staff at Longwood (especially the course attendants and greenskeeprs are the most polite and friendly that you will find. The course is in very good shape. The only one negative I would mention is that the same course attendants that were so nice should grab a tree trimmer, jump in a cart and ride the course and trim all the limbs that are hanging over the cart path. If it his the cart, remove it. A small issue to what otherwise was a great day at Longwood.

My son and I both liked Palmetto best. Pine was a nice challenge. We played again on Sat and still had a great time. I rained of and on, so no back-ups. Greens were aerated on Post Oak

This is a short course routed through thick woods that places a premium on straight ball flight. The layout is fairly interesting, but if you are any better than a bogey golfer you will be frustrated by the 2-3 short holes per nine and the extremely slow pace of play given the yardage and difficulty. Each time I have been out there, you have contact with a marshall about every 3 holes or so, but they are out there solely to make sure no one is getting in any extra golf; they seem quite content to be backed up and have 4+ hour rounds on a chip and putt layout. 7 out of 13 par 4s are under 400 yards and the longest par 5 (most of which play like par 4s) is 531, so make sure your wedge game is sharp. The conditions are what you would expect for the price range, but they appear to have different schedules for green maintenance on each nine holes so the green conditions are somewhat inconsistent between nine holes. Blackhorse and Cypress Lakes nearby are much better options for slightly higher green fees, so I would only recomend Longwood if the other two are not an option or if you dont mind waiting 20 minutes in between wedge shots.

I have not been to this course in a while because it often takes far too long to complete a round. On this day I was able to complete the round in a little less than 3 hours. The overall conditions were good, but the greens were a little long. My only concern was that in June the water on the course was warm and stale.

Nice course. It helps to hit the ball straight here, but you can occasionally be offline and find your way through the hole anyway. There were a couple greens on the Post Oak course that weren't in great shape, but the rest of the course and greens were in very good condition. Played in 4 hours on a Sunday afternoon, so the pace of play wasn't bad. Overall, a very nice course, but they've recently increased prices since being bought by Triumph. I'll only be playing there when I can get a good rate on GolfNow.

Overall the couse is fine, but could use some improvements on the greens.

Excellent course and conitions. Some greens being sanded, but that is just part of maintenance

Course layout has always been a good test of your golfing skills... New ownership has radically improved course and facility conditions

Love the layout of the course but sadly the course needs some work. There are some dead spots on the course large devits/craters. Still had fun but have seen the course in better condition.

Pretty staff. Some tees were hard as a rock. I would recommend this course specially for 16$ from a hot deal.

Had a great time. Course was in good condition. Excellent fathers day.

They stack tee times 8 min apart. You'll wait all day.
Didn't see cart girl till the 18th hole. It was hot and humid with only the hose water from the Igloos around the course and those were few and far between. The bridges are so loud with loose planks. This course has a lot of potential if it were managed better.

THE PALMETTO/PINES WAS IN GREAT SHAPE PACE WAS A BIT SLOW FOURSOME DIDN,T LET TWOSOME THROUGH NAVIGATION INDICATORS NEED UPDATING AND TEE BOX MARKERS ARE LACKING OTHER WISE ENJOYED IT WILL MAKE THAT DRIVE AGAGIN

I really enjoyed playing the longwood golf course. Coming from Mansfield Texas to Houston, this course will be my first choice of play.

Longwood has Ben a consistantly good place to play. Conditions, staff, food and course are all good, looking forward to new management keeping up the tradition!

Bad green. Too too mach slow slow. Now golf sesson. Now lot s player but no good green.

With new management, the course has turned around. I was a member years ago but wasnt worth it. The greens now are much better. A little bumpy but way better than before. The sand still need work but i will blame the rain for most of them. the other are due to bad keeping. Pace of play was awesome but could have been due to the extreme heat. All in all, I will start coming back here.

Nice course but even aa a group of 4 we were held up by groups of 2 ahead of us and a group of 3 behind us were getting frustrated with us altough we were awaiting on every tee box.
They need marshalls out on the course to keep play moving and talk to impatiant groups.
Other than that course s recovering well after the winter but ome bunkers are washed out. .

Tucked away in a residential neighborhood, this course is surprisingly isolated. Beautiful Oaks, tall pines and woods still in there natural state give this course a feeling of seclusion. It is laid out in both sides of Cypress Creek with holes taking golfers back and forth repeatedly. Staff is top notch.

WE were not told about a tournament that was going on
We had to play the same 9 holes twice because of it.
Not what I was expecting.
When I asked the clubhouse guys about it they really didn't seem to care
Hopefully the new owners will turn this place around
