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.

Really bad greens and bunkers

They say this is $100-$150+ course but not currently. More like a $65 value.

Greens are dead, bunkers lack sand, and fairways cut to dirt.

Recommend playing somewhere else fir few months.

Not super happy

The golf cart restrictions were very annoying. 90 degree rule is one thing but those carts are irritating.

Also at the turn the toilet in the bathroom exploded at it was disgusting.

Pace of play due to three guys not using good golf course management was horrendous. Must hasten Marshall's 4 times but they never seemed to care how they were causing a large back up.

I used to love the course but it just doesn't have the same feel anymore.

Conditions don’t match the price

The course was in pretty bad shape especially considering they’re charging the highest public green fee in Houston. Fairways were pretty baked out. Most of the greens had sprouts making the putting surface uneven and a lot of the lies around the green were mostly bare dirt. Before the round even started there were no range balls and even if there were any there’s no spots on the range to swing. If you’re going to charge prices that are up there with golf club of Houston at the very least you need to have close course conditions and a spot to warmup.

Over priced course with rude staff

The course is over priced for what it is. We played the North Course and it was in terrible shape. The greens had all kinds of foreign grass mixed in with the Bermuda grass. The pro shop was rude when o asked for help looking for a shirt size. I would not return and play here as the price doesn’t reflect the quality of the course.

Nice course

Good overall conditions. Too many sand bunkers. Mostly straight and flat so not particularly challenging or interesting. Also not much to look at visually.
