Great course but greens recently aerated…

This is normally a great course, but the greens were recently aerated and were not in playing condition. The condition of the greens made for a frustrating round unfortunately. On the other hand, great staff and despite the rain, the superb drainage system allowed for 90 degree so the pace of play was outstanding.

Nice Track

I really enjoy playing this course. The only issue this time was the greens were just punched. Maybe another week or two and it will be awesome again.

First Time Playing

Very nice course!!!

When I first arrived I was greeted and setup to get started! Loved the course can say anything bad about it….spoiled to having GPS in the cart so that was pretty much the only thing that was bad. Being that it was my first time playing the course I didn’t have much insight into where to hit ….but loved the course!!!!

Great Course In the City

Wildcat highland course was great! Kept greens, friendly staff and overall very fun course. Seeing NRG stadium and the city of Houston while playing my favorite game was the cherry on top. Strongly recommend!

Great pace, slow greens

Fantastic day on the Highlands course on a very hot day. Finished round in 3 1/2 hours. Greens were a little slow for my taste on this particular day, but I don't think that's always the case.
