Wildcat Golf Club - The Highlands
About
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 layout, poor conditions
This course is one of my favorites but I'm afraid they are letting it run down. When I arrived, I was told I couldn't hit a warm up bucket as "the machine was down". Couldn't they just give me a bucket anyway? I mean, aren't their in fact plenty of range balls and baskets to put them in? Secondly, their was pea gravel in several of the bunker hazards. Who wants to hit their nice irons out on rocks? Not this guy. I admit, I will pull my ball from the bunker on occasion but pea gravel, really? I don't get it...
Didn't hit a single tree
I live 8 hrs from this course and this was my 2nd visit to the Wildcat golf course. Played the Highlands both times. The golf experience starts when you drive up to the front door. Someone to welcome you and assit with the clubs. The Pro Shop, Restarant/Bar area, driving range and the golf round starter all very nice.
The course is a very nice play ground for all levels of golfers. Excellent tee boxes, fairways, hazards and greens.
Anytime we go to south Houston for football games at Reliant Stadium or anything else we will stay at the Pearland Town center and golf at Wildcat Golf Club.

Fun course while visiting family!
It was wet and cold and pretty ugly out there, but the Highlands were a lot of fun and I will play this course again when I return
Wow!
Have played the course several times but this time -WOW! Had the best time ever! Beautifull views, greens were rolling pure, and the was treated excellent at the 19th hole by the General Mgr. Tim and the Teaching Pro Tom, who struck up a conversation out of the blue. I have to go back soon! Course and greens are in super shape. Ball sits up nicely on the grass, even in the rough...Something magical about this course!
will come back again
very nice course, good pace of play, shouldtry when you can....
Nice course
Greens were in good condition as well as the fairways.
Tough course!!
Good fast greens tough pin placements. Good course for $60.
nice course, many blind shots
Course was in nice shape. Challenging terrain with good views. Had a few blind shots. Weather was cold and windy and it was cart path only. I purchased the round a few days earlier otherwise I probably wouldn't have played. But I had the course to myself so I played fast. Staff was friendly.I'll come back on a nicer day.
Best Links Style in SE Texas
After playing in Europe on a true links course it was a great pleasure to play here in SE Texas a great representation of a true links course. Think twice about teeing off with the driver on every hole.
Great views and fun course
I thought the course was in great shape and everything met expectations. Wonderful views of the city!
Wildcat at the Lake
Always a great course from tees to green. Play got a little slow on the back nine.
Great Course
I've now played both the Lakes and the Highlands and I love both courses. Perfectly maintained with incredible greens and above average difficulty. I used a GolfNow special and was able to play for ~$45 taxes and fees included on a Sunday afternoon. Amazing value for the quality of the course.
Greens are true
I found a Sunday afternoon tee time for $31. Just can't beat that. The course was in good shape but nothing I would rave about. Playing the course for the first time was difficult because of so many blind shots. The greens had minor weed issues but rolled very true. Almost nobody on the course so play was very fast.
Great course - nice views
the course is in very good condition - greens roll true and fairly fast - lots of undulations on the greens. Fairways were in very good condition - tee boxes in fair-good condition. Weather was outstanding - and pace was reasonable for a Sunday afternoon.
Great Course
The Highlands course on a whole is great the only
negative is there is no sand in the dand traps. Just
hard unraked untilled dirt impossible to hit a good
shoot out of.
Wildcat Golf Course
Wildcat is a fun, challenging golf course in great shape!
so so
I like this course for the scenery and overall layout but that's about it. I'd say the pro-shop was of average friendliness. Tee boxes were an absolute wreck, fairways were good, greens were mostly good but a little long. This course has the potential to be world class but it is no doubt slipping. It used to be you couldn't get on this course for less than about 75 but now you see it for as little as 25 because they are hurting. Would I play this again? Yes. Would I pay more than about 45 yo play? No.
ready to play again
Great course! Very different from the surrounding courses. Club selection a must. Course was in great shape. If the rounds where $10-15 cheaper I would only play there.
Great course
This is a very under appreciated course. I liked it so much the first time I played that I went back the next day. Highly recommended.
Great view of Houston skyline
I have played here several times and always enjoy the views, the layout and the staff.
The clubhouse bar is a good place to have an after round beer.
