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.

Course in great shape

Greens are medium fast and very smooth. As good of greens as I have seen in quite some time. Fairways were great. Only drawback is driving range is chewed up - but that is always a challenge this time of year. CAN'T WAIT TO GO BACK!!!

Rude staf in pro shop

I bought a round for me and my buddy the old guy in the pro shop tried to argue with me that I didn't buy 2 rounds. After I showed him email confirmation he still had the attitude of to bad so sad. He needs to understand I am the paying customer and I have proof of purchase. There was no reason for him to be a jerk. Will play here again but will advoid checking in with with this guy from now on.

Fantastic Course in the eyes of an East Coaster

Traveled to the Houston area for a wedding and after doing some research, decided to play here for my first taste of Texas golfing. I really enjoyed the differences in the grasses and course layout, immaculately maintained with fast greens and and thick rough. I did lose several balls in said rough including a ball that rolled off the back of one green so be warned.

I'm used to courses that have a lot more elevation changes but this course still has plenty of character and challenges of its own.

The staff was very attentive and gave me a great overview before the start of my round.

Excellent practice facilities as well and a top-notch clubhouse. This place isn't the cheapest but you certainly get your money's worth here. Would highly recommend to anyone local or just passing through.

Good Day

Excellent conditions for the time of year. New white sand in the traps adds to the course appearance and very playable. Green are fast and smooth. Maybe too fast for some of the pin placements, but in all a good day on a good course.

Good quick round

I have played this course, Blackhorse North a number of times. It is a very good layout with memorable holes. Green were in good shape and putted smoothly.

Sand trap;s have been worked on and the white sand was plenty and deep. Fairways were in decent shape with signs of repair from the floods. Course should be in awesome shape come next spring if no more floods. At 49 bucks at 1:00 in the afternoon on a Saturday you could not beat it. Played with my two brothers and a single that joined us. Play was just a hair over 4 hours but if we could have hit more fairways we could have played in less. Rough was thick but not so bad you could not play a shot. Overall a great afternoon.
