Great Day of Golf

First time playing this course and it did not disappoint! Great layout and just challenging enough to make it fun without it being too difficult. Greens ran true and fast. Great staff and friendly cart attendant. Can't wait to play again!

Great course an layout

The service from arrival to finish was excellent. The course was in great playing condition. The pace of play was 3 1/2 hrs to play. We never waited on any shot. The course from tee to green was great. Greens rolled true with some tough reads. Received a great price via Golfnow. This Made the outing worthwhile. I can't wait to come back to play this course next year.

Great Staff

John and David were very friendly and took great care of my buddy and I. We made a two hour road trip from Victoria. I had played herearpund 10 times. It was a first for my buddy. The layout is excellent along with a well manicured course. It was great to come back! We played decent too. That always helps

Super nice

This is one of the best courses I've played in a while. Just one solid golf hole after another. Could be supe challenging if the greens were running fast.

Fantastic Layout

Best layout I have played in southeast Texas. Course is fair but challenging. Tee boxes are placed to promote confidence in tee shots with very few if any forced carries over water or native areas. Fairway bunkers and green side bunkers are well placed and manicured, however I wish they would have used native sand over the shipped in white sugar sand. Greens were just recently punched so they were a little inconsistent but they are large and well designed. Pace of play was 4.5 hours, however we followed a tournament so that was to be expected. Great course to play with a group of mixed golfer abilities. High handicappers will not be excessively punished and experienced players will find the course challenging, which I think is what every course design should strive for to make the game fun for all. Pro shop and starter were friendly.

Great course

It's not easy, huge bunkers and large, slippery greens but beautiful and well kept golf course with all the amenities you would expect.

I will definitely be back.

Welll worth the drive from Houston

If only The Wilderness were a half hour closer, I would probably play it all the time. But with that said, it's certainly worth the drive if you've got a day to kill with your buddies. The layout, the natural beauty and Jeff Brauer's wonderful design make this a treat. And as an added bonus, the hospitality here is second to none. I love the rustic clubhouse, which fits the theme of The Wilderness, including the back porch, which is the perfect place to relive your round over a cold one or two. As for the course, there's a green that's 60 yards wide (Brauer knew that would be a talking point), but the course is anything but gimmicky. Just one solid hole after another.

Blustery day!

Wind was really up that day! Course was in great shape despite some greens work being started. Course is tree lined which helped with some coverage against the wind. Very good price point for the quality of golf that is received.

Hidden Gem

This course is a hidden gem in the coastal area near

Lake Jackson. The layout is challenging and the bunkers are plentiful. The green were very smooth and had many subtle movements. This is a course that you will definitely enjoy more your second round there.

Polite staff and nice grill.

Love this course

Staff was friendly. When we made the turn a group got in front of use. They said they were told to by the starter. After we questioned them they allowed use to play through.

Beautiful and Challenging

GC is about 45 minutes from my house, but well worth the drive. My wife and i love the scenic views. GC is built in the middle of a wild life preservation. There are gators and snakes so stay away from the ponds and OB lines said the starter. WE didn't see any but did see some birds and lots of rabbits. THe GC is well kept. Beautiful fairways and greens. But warning... greens are heavily undulated! Talk about two to three teir putts and 2 to 4 feet difference! Very challenging so plan your approach and chips accordingly or be ready to 3 to 4 putts! We love this challenge and will be back again!
