Golfer Reviews
Very enjoyable round of golf
The greens were very fast and in some challenging locations. The fairways were very good but the grass was a little high so the ball didn't roll very much. Overall a very enjoyable round of golf. I will certainly play there again.
Awesome course
The course is in beautiful shape. The staff is extremely friendly and I would highly recommend the Wilderness to anyone.
Great Experience!!
The Wilderness is a challeging golf experience. I played it for a $25 twilight deal which is a steal. The greens are well guarded by bunkers. The only complaint is that the carts seemed too slow. Otherwise, the staff was friendly. Course etiquette by other golfers was great. I will be back definitely.
Excellent course
Was on vacation and found this course. We had planned to play tour 18 in Houston but decided to try The Wilderness instead I am glad we did. This course is in excellent shape and is very challenging especially the greens.
Worth the drive.
Had heard about the course for a while and decided to give it a try. Glad I did. Friendly staff, course is a solid fair test and it was in great shape on this day.
Will definitely return.
Great course
Great layout and in very good shape. Fairways are very lush and greens rolled well. The course is maintained as well as, if not better, any of the best courses I've played. This course is a must play, can't say enough good things about it. If you're even remotely close to the area, you won't be disappointed.
Worth the Drive
First I must say I made the drive from Cypress, Texas to Lake Jackson and was pleasantly surprised. When I arrived in the distance tucked away is a Texas gem. You drive up to the clubhouse which takes you back to simpler times. The staff was very friendly. From the time you lay eyes on the course you see rolling fairways and undulating greens.The course is in great condition despite the lack of rain recently. The only complaint I have is the greens were being aerated so you could only play the front nine which was quite disheartening considering the drive i made. In addition to that i prepaid on golfnow.com and was charged a higher rate than the clubhouse was offering some kinda of hotdeal. I would definitely recommend this course to anyone if you want to get away from it all and enjoy a round of golf then find yourself in the Wilderness.
This course is excellent.
The tee boxes, fairways and greens are in very good condition, the staff very friendly.
I recommend this course.
Excellent Course
Good Greens...Roll very true...Bunkers raked and fluffy sand ... Facilities neat and clean....Friendly, helpful staff...For a public course this is as good as it gets.
excellent course
A really outstanding course - phenomenal tract for a public course. Excellent variety of holes - a player will use all the sticks in his/her bag. Course was in very good shape - greens were close to perfect. The huge greens make the course somewhat forgiving if you are a decent putter. The staff was extraordinarily friendly. I was paired with 2 'regulars' who were good players and were very friendly and helpful with the local knowledge of the course. I would very strongly recommend this course to golfers of all capability.
Best Bang for the Buck
Best course for the money in Houston area! Any comparable courses 70+ dollars at primetime....
Houston Area Must Play
Have played this course many times. Mature trees, water, interesting wildlife, turtle back greens, forced carries. Interesting holes, just a great piece of property.
Course is above average in maintenance for a public course.
Two downsides you should prepare for:
1. mosquitos will reduce you to a skeleton
2. its a drive
Everyone likes this course and wants to play it again, just draw cards to see who drives.
Great course
I like playing this course. Always fun and the staff is awesom
Great value
The Wilderness is in great shape and the staff is very welcoming and helpful. The course is surrounding by lots of mature trees and green growth, so you feel as though you are far away from the cares of the world. Just be sure to take your bug spray - the mosquitoes are plentiful.
Experience
Awesome staff, course is in very good condition, pace of play is exceptional.
Fun Place
Reasonably long (great pay 4's) with somewhat wide fairways. Very nice layout and very playable. The staff here is great (treated us wonderfully).We were visiting the area for a couple of weeks and played as much golf as we could. Played "The Wilderness" three times and loved each. Highly recommend this place.
Great course
The course was in great condition even though a front had came through just 2 hours earlier. It was windy but the course was fair. I live about 30 minutes away
but the course is well worth the drive and with the Golfnow.com discount the price is unbeatable.
This course is one of my favorites.
I've had the opportunity to play The Wilderness a few times now. And not once has it disappointed. The course itself is located in such a peaceful and relaxing setting just outside of Lake Jackson. And I love how it is always in such excellent condition. It plays pretty straight forward, what you see is what you get. But you still have to hit your shots, because it will challenge you. And when you do hit the green in regulation the greens are full of awesome undulations. If you get a chance, make the drive down 288 to Wilderness. You won't be disappointed.
Beautiful place from the clubhouse to the 18th.
Awesome staff! After my round I ordered food and ate while I watched an afc playoff game. We had the best time in a long time on this course.
