The Highlands Course is probably the more stimulating of the two tracks at Wildcat GC, offering better views of the city, natural wetlands and grasses, and some intriguing flat sand bunkers. Case must have an affinity for the No. 7, because like the Lakes track, the 421-yard, par 4 hole 7 is the most difficult rated hole. Watch out for the par 5s on this one, three of which play at or above 570 yards from the tips.

Getting there : From downtown take Hwy. 288 south for 5 miles to Loop 610. Head west and find the Fannin exit, where you'll U-turn under 610 and drive east on the access road to Almeda Rd. Turn right on Almeda and the course is 3 miles further.

Great course. Will definitely be back.

I drove in from Austin to play Wildcat with a customer. It had been a while since they played the course, but it was my first time. We both agreed it was in good shape and enjoyed the round. There were nice elevations, the greens were in very good condition, and the pace was just right. I couldn't ask for more, other than free range. I wasn't thrilled that you also had to pay for range balls, but it is what it is. I'll definitely be back to try a round at their other course, the Lakes.

Best course.

Considering the course conditions , location (Centrally located), these course is tops for the city of Houston. Enough for the veteran, but doable for the beginner. The carts are in great condition and they have a great screen/GPS/multimedia system that helps you out.

Nice greens

They had cart path only which I found a little excessive being how it's fairly high and dry with huge hills but wasn't too bad. I'm all about the greens and they rolled very well and true. It's always nice having undulations throughout. Was worth the golf now special rate, not sure it's worth 100+ level but very nice.

The view of downtown was really nice and I'll be back for sure

Interesting track

The fairways and greens were in great condition. However, there were some unnecessary garbage and debris around the course. That stopped me from giving you a 5!
