Wildcat- Highlands was a great experience

First time playing Wildcat, weather wasn’t the greatest but everything else was top notch! Staff was welcoming and friendly, course was in great shape for this time of year. Played on a Monday morning and it seemed like we had the course to ourselves. Two groups allowed us to play through with easy. After the first round, we payed the inexpensive replay fee and played a second round. Already looking forward to my next visit to the challenging course

Hills in Houston?

So much for everything is flat at sea level! Incredible rolling hills, lakes, streams, views and wildlife. Can’t wait to come back!

Zero customer service

I love this course and spend thousands a year with Golf Now with clients. My clients son has covid and can’t make it and I can’t get a cancellation or reply or any chance of response since 3pm the day prior. At minimum I need a response of some sort. I would pay a minimum on cancellation fee but zero response is hard to swallow.

Been a while since playing here. But I know I can count on it being in great shape. Really nice to hit off full fairways instead of tight lies. Nice to see the oil pump on 15 repaired an running too. Lol. Hope to be back soon.

Great course hidden Houston treasure

Did not feel like Houston being on the course. Awesome place. Some greens under partial construction but well marked.

Good Course; Poor Pace of Play

Overall an enjoyable experience. After several days of cold weather and way too much rain, the course was in pretty darn good shape. Greens were great - relatively fast (despite all the rain), and rolled true. Course was a bit too wet in a few places, but not so wet to require CPO. Everything except pace of play was good. Pace of play was horrible. It took over 5 hours for the round. They MUST get Marshalls on the course to ensure pace of play is reasonable (ideally at the 4:15 pace they profess).

Beautiful view, a little bit challenge but fun.

Well kept fairway and greens. Had fun! Too much mosquitoes, got bitten badly. Will come back playing again with anti mosquitoes spray. The pace was a little bit slow as it was Sunday. Wished marshall would do the job.
