Challenging but fair.

It was really fun to play the same course the pros played the Houston Open on. As a senior who drives the ball 210-220 yards, I thought the course played fair from the men's white tees and didn't ask me to hit impossible shots. Condition was great as always and the greens present a challenge in judging speed and break. Very enjoyable!

Few or none distance markets

How far out am I? No clue. Few markers. I would have like a picture of the hole … maybe on the back of score card. Slow pace and had to wait which puts a big snag in your game. Cart path only makes for a longer day but understand why.

Favorite Course in Houston but ...

Great course - overwatered in front of greens making chipping from the apron more challenging than usual - also resulting in tons of divots that were not sanded - maybe due to overseeding?

Pace of play was okay but paired with two other players, one of whom took 3 shots for every one of mine and my playing partner. Courses in the US need to require and schedule players based on handicaps - as they do in Europe - only way pace of play is ever going to be solved. Also, Marshalls should be on the course, coaching and nudging slow players along.

Great Course

Course conditions were great! Greens were very fast & immaculate. Drink cart girl was friendly and visible on front & back nine. Starter Joe was awesome & worked to get us moving on time. Unfortunately after that, we waited on every hole, never saw a marshal & our round took 5 hours. Was surprised to see that both of our carts were dirty, but they ran well. Despite the slow group in front of us, we enjoyed playing this course & will come back when we catch some discounted prices.

Great course! Immaculate greens. Newer golf carts.

Course was amazing. The carts were backed up so they let us use a members only cart which is awesome so we didn’t miss our tee time.

Ok corse

Nothing special about the course. There are better courses for the amount they charge. I could see this being 60-70 but nothing past. I most likely won’t play here again
