Championship caliber still

Course was in excellent condition, could play The Houston Open now and would be a tough go. Greens were well manicured and rolled true. Bunkers could have used a little bit of touch but with current environment it’s still pretty good. Driving range was in good shape and staff were all very friendly. The “Tourn” was closed when we tried to get some drinks but the course provides some bottle water in the cooler on the cart.

Rude staff

I love playing this course. It’s a mile from my home and it’s always in great shape. Up until today, it’s always been a pleasure to play. My disappointment was getting to the course to find out that everyone were REQUIRED to pair up in the carts. Usually that was only the case if you were in the same household or you were ok riding with someone else.

I have played there twice in the last month before today and as recently as last Sunday. During those times no one was required to ride together. So when I asked why today, the response I got was it’s club policy. So, I asked her about the prior weeks and why now with Houston now at code red with the Covid outbreak. Her response remained the same. I saw that I was getting nowhere with her and asked to speak with a supervisor.

There was no one else to talk with because the GM was off. However, some other woman got on the phone and began to go off saying she heard the whole conversation and that I was belittling her staff. In stead of deescalating the situation she made it worst. I just told her to put me through to GM’s voicemail. I left a message hoping for a call back.

If you’re planning to play there just be aware of being paired with someone.

Just a beautiful course

If the condition of my game was as good as the course, I'd be on the pro tour. BUT it wasn't. :>)

Nice course

It’s a nice course but honestly not that difficult; it’s just long. Greens were C+ condition and fairways were very good.

I played cause we had a great deal for Fathers Day

Course I’m good shape

Course in pretty good shape. Doing a lot of work on hole 15 sand traps.Most traps were in good shape. Getting a little thin in some spots in the fairways. Greens were in good shape. Great value and will definitely be playing again soon
