Rating 75.0

The environmentally friendly Blackhorse Golf Club in Cypress was designed by Peter Jacobsen and Jim Hardy, who teamed to build one of the best 36-hole, daily-fee facilities in Texas. Designed to maximize the natural setting, this beautiful complex is a perfect setting for golf with its huge variety of oaks, elms, and wetlands that provide habitat for a wide variety of bird species. Holes 4-6 on Blackhorse Golf Club's North Course generally get the best of high handicappers. Holes 4 and 5 route through massive trees and expansive wetlands, both playing over 400 yards. No. 6 is the North Course's signature: a 180-yarder that tees over the bend of the creek to an elevated green enhanced with railroad ties and framed by bunkers.

Probably the best course in the Houston area except maybe Redstone (forgot the new name) which I have not played due to the price.

Srill one of the best

Only thing that kept me from giving a 5 star is the rough. Really needs to be cut, if you're a few feet off the fairway, iys very hard to find it. All said its still one of my favorite and would recommend to all skill levels.

North Course after aeration not a good idea

Since it was my first time playing Blackhorse I chose the north course which the greens had just been aerated and sanded thinking that fewer players would be on it. I was right but time is wasted on the rough greens. However I was impressed with the beauty of the course. I am looking forward to playing the south course. Note there are no restrooms on the north course.

Great Shape after 3 days of Rain

Played on Friday after rain total of 8 inches on Mon-Tue-Wed, and course was dry overall with only about 5 holes limited from carts; and even those were dry. Greens in great shape; fairway grass very nice; which cut-down distance off-the-tee; thus made the course longer than it appears on the card. Huge greens give ample opportunity to get on. A good bit of sand on the course.

Always in great shape

Always enjoy playing Blackhorse - North & South courses. Played the South on this occasion and it was in phenomenal shape. People could learn to repair their ball marks, and those around them, but that’s ALWAYS been a problem.

Beautiful course, not so traps

If bunkers are present, then they should be raked the night before next morning.

Nice couse

The North course is more open and less shady than the South course. Fairways and greens are in excellent condition. Great value.

Great condition - no drinking water

Course was in amazing condition. Only complaint would be that there was no water at the drinking stations and on a 97 degree day it was needed. Also, the cart girl never came around which would have helped with the lack of water. I will come back though.
