Wildcat Golf Club - The Lakes
Rating Snapshot
About
Architect Roy Case created both courses on this new 36-hole, daily-fee facility that is located only 10 minutes from downtown Houston. In addition to the views of the skyline, Case had at his disposal a touch of Hill Country terrain with dramatic elevation changes, as well as the typical Houston- area prairie lands. From this he was able to carve the links-style Highlands Course and the more traditional Lakes Course.
As its name implies, the Lakes Course, which tips out at a par 72 7,016 yards, is loaded with water. The best hole is the 539-yard No. 7, which is listed as the number one handicap. Interestingly, the four easiest holes are the par 3s, which range from 165 to 218 yards.

Great course
Great course in the city. Love the lakes course. Great scenery and challenging course.
Lakes course is tough! But fun
We enjoyed our time on the Lakes course. I played the Highland side a few months ago and would recommend mid to high handicap go there but the lakes is good for your straight hitters. Challenging but fun. The pace was okay we had a 2-man team in front of us (4-man team) that was extremely slow and playing on golds while we’re playing blues. I just discount that to poor sportsmanship. Overall love this course.
Love Wildcat
So glad this gem is close to our home in Bellaire. Especially with the new yardage / layout screens added to the golf carts, both courses overall are a great value.
Only wish for improvement :
1. They would install a restroom at the driving range
2. Have a membership program for using the course and range for frequent customers
Wildcat-Lakes
Course was in excellent condition. Greens were rolling beautifully. Had an enjoyable round. Thank you!
GolfNow hotdeal tee time booking didn't work
My name is not on the list when arrived Proshop, proshop asked me to follow up with GN. I started chatting by GN chat, provided the confirmation number...etc asked GN for a refund, but so far received nothing.
Please contact us at Info@wildcatgolfclub.com so I can learn more of this situation. Thank you.
Unable to play because ProShop said they don't see I am paid, please refund
I booked in the morning when I saw a hot deal, I paid at GolfNow and was due $0 at the course. When I was in Proshop I was told they don't see my name on the sheet. I wasn't able to play as I am unpaid.
I did show the GolfNow confirmation email which shows $0 due but was not accepted. I writing this review to follow up with GolfNow to get my credits back since I was unable to play.
Please contact us with your info @ INFO@wildcatgolfclub.com, and we will make sure we make this right. I apologize for the issues with the online booking.
We are sorry for the issue with your tee time, and we would appreciate a chance to resolve this. Please email us at Info@wildcatgolfclub.com with your information so we can make this right. Thank you.
Great course layout and pace of play!
Great course and layout! The course is in great shape and I'll be back soon.
Dam Those Lakes
Really enjoyed getting to play here. We were in the area and found this course on the app. Did not disappoint. John, one of the Marshalls, saw we were waiting for the group infront of us and stopped and talked with us while they were finishing up. He was knowledgable about the course and was a cool guy to talk to while waiting. The driving range has a backdrop of NRG Stadium and the Astro dome! Make sure and bring an extra sleeve with you, the lakes are unforgiving, there are some blind spots to challenge every type of golfer.
Excellent course
This course has two 18 hole choice’s and they are both top notch… always..
We would love to hear more about your experience on our course. Thanks for golfing at Wildcat Golf Club - The Lakes!
Well kept course
I really enjoyed golfing here. The course was well kept, especially during the summer when most golf courses tend to get very dry. Aside from being a well-kept course the staff was very nice and friendly. I would love to golf here again.
Thanks so much for your review. We're so glad you enjoyed your round at Wildcat Golf Club - The Lakes. That's what we like to hear! We hope to see you again soon!
GREAT COURSE
One of the best courses around the Houston area hands down. Greens were excellent, fairways smooth, rough was rough. I played the tips and you will 100% need that little caddy book in the clubhouse to help with your yardages and carry distances. My new favorite course!
Thanks so much for your review. We're so glad you enjoyed your round at Wildcat Golf Club - The Lakes. That's what we like to hear! We hope to see you again soon!
