About

Holes 18
Type Public
Par 72
Length 6782 yards
Slope 129
Rating 72.7

Parlaying the successes of the Dallas-area Tour 18, Houston's version of America's greatest holes has become one of Harris County's most popular golf destinations. This one takes advantage of the Southeast Texas pines, with towering trees lining every hole, and the impressive conditions that have made both Tour 18s popular with the public.

Two holes stand out on the front side, and they're not the replicas of Augusta's Amen Corner (5-7 on this track). No. 1 is perhaps the most difficult on the course, intimidating off the tee because it is surrounded by wetlands. You'll need a solid drive to start well on this narrow, 440-yard hole. Bay Hill, La Costa, Inverness, and Pinehurst are also modeled, but the other great hole on the front is No. 9, a version of TPC Sawgrass's island hole.

Texas' own Colonial's third hole makes a showing on No. 12, and you'll get to see what Pebble Beach might feel like on No. 13. And those who've played the Dallas track know that the crew can sometimes get diabolical with their stimp-meter readings and pin placements, which is similar to what happens on No. 15-a replica of Shinnecock Hills' 8th hole. The green on this one slopes so heavily toward the front that a three-jack is almost certain.

Doral rears its head on No. 18, the perfect finishing hole for this track. Play the approach to the right side of the green, away from the water left, just like the pros do when they're protecting that precious lead.

Getting there : From US 59 north, turn right on FM 1960 and drive east for about 2 miles to the course entrance.

Poor course conditions

No sand in bunkers plus numerous bare patches around greens and in fairways. Course seems to really be going down hill but prices have gone up.

Tour 18

One of the slowest rounds I’ve played in a while around five hours, and no marshal to keep the pace of play going in front of us. How can you be $120 course with no marshals!??

Good but expensive for the course

The site is nice and the course is good but, for this price you expect perfect greens, ball shaggers, better cars and others, There are courses around for the half with much better facilities

Great course

Golf course is in very good shape.

Very challenging, just hit from the correct box for your game

Play number 2 conservatively. Bite off too much of the lake and you will be looking at double bogey.

Island greens are fun with a very forgiving drop zones.

All said it’s a fun golf course.

Course Rates.

I was disappointed to find out that I paid Tee-off $113 and when I got to the Proshop they told me that the greens fees for seniors was $90. Next time I won't assume that Tee-off has the best rares.

Great course .. slow play

Love this course, but pace of play was very slow today. Perfect weather so that probably brought out the masses. Course in very good condition.

Very Enjoyable course

There had been a ton of rain in the area and the entire course was Cart Path only. Despite this the fairways were fantastic and the greens putted a little slow, but were in overall great shape. I gave a 4 for course conditions because the cart paths are not in the greatest conditions and really could use some repair. the rest of the course was great.

Best for money in the area

One of the best and funnest courses in the area that doesn’t cost an arm and a leg to play. Ans usually it’s pretty quick play with low traffic on week days.

First time playing one of these replica type courses. It was a lot of fun playing Amen Corner and most holes were realistic. Will play again.

Wait for prices to drop

Definitely not worth $100. Ofcourse i played in February so I understand the winter like conditions. But seems little to none on the upkeep. Luckily I got a hot deal for 55$. Range was okay. They have a top tracer which is hit or miss. Not consistent on tracking. But I’ll try it again in the summer.

Amazing course. no marshall. And the people it attracts. Had a guy hit into us while they had two tee times stacked behind them on number two holes. They then blame us for not getting out of the way.
