Pleasant surprise

I played the course for the first time today and thoroughly enjoyed the layout. The conditions of the course were excellent. I highly recommend The Wilderness. It is a challenging course and the high winds today made it even harder. The greens rolled true and the tees and fairways were in perfect shape. I played the ball down everywhere and never had a bad lie when in fairway.

Not what it was

I’ve played this course 4 times over the last 6 months, the greens have always been in great shape, but this time around the greens were patchy, and missing grass in sections. Looks like they aerated & over-seeded the greens recently, hopefully this helps. The bunkers were washed out, perhaps from storms last week, but even the bunkers that weren’t washed out had tire tracks throughout & hadn’t been raked. No marshall moving the pace of play along, had several singles & two balls out between 4 balls & the course was stacked up, had 5 groups on the 10th hole.

Love this course BUT...

I drive 75 miles from north Houston to play this course. I really love the layout and it’s usually in good condition even during the winter months but the greens were not good today. Not a lot of grass on them. I get the greens might be in transition but they were a lot better last week. And what’s even worse, they aerated the greens with the bigger spikes and DID NOT put an Advisory on GolfNow. Like I said before I REALLY love this course and always recommend it to all my friends. It was just disappointing to drive all the way out there and find the greens the way they were.

Great layout but greens need to fill in

Course was good with healthy amount of challenges. Mixed up the tees to get a good feel of distances. Greens rolled fast but a couple need to fill in. Overall, good course and one worth the drive.

Great Course

Pretty course with no adjoining houses. Just an alligator or two. Fairly wide for less skilled like me. Exceptionally friendly staff and other golfers. Really glad I gave it a try. To bad it’s more than an hour from my house.

Great day to play a round

Impressed with the friendliness of the staff. There was a tournament going on but my partner and I were able to complete all 18 holes. The staff kept the pace of play consistent with the tourney as well as for individual play. Hats off to Kurt & Richard the we’re phenomenal!

Dependable course

The wilderness is in great shape. It's one of only a handful of courses in the Houston area available thru golf now whose greens are in good condition. The fairways are plush. I felt like taking off my shoes and socks to walk on it barefoot.

Annual Open House

Course has a great open house around this time of year. Great food and beverages after a fun round of golf. Considering the extremely wet weather we have had this year the course was in great shape. Greens probably as quick as I have ever played there and with amount of undulation putting is challenged. Easy to 3 putt or more if you are in the wrong section of green. Beautiful setting to enjoy with friends.

Nice course

Five hour round, they could do better on marshaling the course. Cart path only, very wet conditions so it plays really long. Easy drive from Houston.
