Tour 18 Houston

About
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.

Hole 9 Photo submitted by bullet2008 on 08/20/2013
novice tournament
booked an early tee time in order to get to my engagements later in the day, but for some reason a tournament was placed directly in the middle of the course. they weren't novices, they just couldn't play!!!! 5 or 6 players on the 6th hole appear to be tutoring attendees on the game . it was a horrible day. tor 18 was a disappointment on 8/21/2021
We appreciate you taking the time to review the course and rate us. Thank you for the 4 stars! We aim for a 5-star experience, so we always welcome feedback for improvement. Thank you for playing Tour 18 Houston.
Lost it’s Luster
The entranceway the signage the appearance of the clubhouse were all in a sad state of affairs.
Sad that it has not been maintained
The fairways and greens were wonderful very fun course to play

5 stars
Course is always in good shape. Even with the heat the greens are are fast and true. I’ll be back soon.
Hi, Ralphy. Thank you so much for the great review. We are glad you had an incredible time, and we hope to see you again soon! Thanks for choosing Tour 18 Houston.
Great concept. Poor delivery.
Great concept but a little disappointed in the conditions. Greens were cut extremely sloppy. It’s like they didn’t even follow the contour of the collars on multiple greens just cut in a straight line. It was bad. Pretty disappointing as this course could be sooo sick.
The round also took 5 hours and 20 min. That’s long on a normal day let alone in 90 degree heat.
We appreciate you taking the time to review the course and rate us. We are going to pass on your feedback to the team. Thanks for visiting Tour 18 Houston, and we hope to see you again in the future.
Tour 18 August 21
First time back in a few decades… Good stuff - need to build back the conceptual pride and improve pace of play - everyone wants to hit 2-3 balls on Augusta 12 and TPC 17 —— here’s the deal…. Missed the shot? You Suck! - move on to the next hole!

Tour 18
Played here not long after it first opened and this was my first time back in all those years. I thought the course was in great shape. Tee boxes, fairways, bunkers and greens were all in great shape especially considering the freeze earlier this year and now the heat. I had not a complaint about the playing conditions. It may not be fair because I only saw it once when it was new but I found it a little sad to see some the decay of some of the site structures. Nothing some fresh paint couldn’t fix. Even still, I’m going to make a better effort to get back out there than I did after my first time. We had a very good experience.
Thank you for taking the time to review us. Your feedback is valuable, and we appreciate your business. Tour 18 Houston thanks you!
Great Course with Friendly Staff
This was my second time playing this course and had great experience both times. This course is very well kept and challenging.. especially hole 6. Pace of play was good for a Wknd and cart girls were very active for those of us who like libations. Greens are a little fast and fairway were in great condition! Highly recommend this course. The only plaint was it was so dang hot! Lol!
Wow! We are so happy you enjoyed your round! We look forward to seeing you again soon at Tour 18 Houston.
What a Great Course
Played Tour 18 for the first time and had no expectations. I was impressed. Great course. Fantastic replica holes. Tough course but fair. I certainly will return. As often as possible

Always Fun
Love playing this course. Course was in great shape, rough was heavy, and the greens were a little slow.
Played from the tips for the first time, and the course was very challenging.
Helped me garner a greater appreciation for the pros that hit long irons and woods into greens.
We love hearing about our golfers' experiences. Please tell us more about what you enjoyed during your round. Thanks for choosing Tour 18 Houston!
