Wilderness Golf Course

It was a little wet due to rain; however, the course was in great condition. The pace was fine. The course marshal had my group play the back nine first to even out play and helped us play faster. We started the front nine with hardly anyone in front of us. The service was great and polite. This is my second time using GolfNow to play this course and would play it again if my schedule fits. Great course.

Booked my round through Golfnow but had trouble getting to the course in time for my tee time. Called the course and they were very accommodating - told me not to worry and I would go off whenever I arrived.

There had been a lot of rain the previous day and intermittent rain throughout this day but the course was very playable. The only place we found standing water was on the tee boxes (they were a bit wet) but the rest of the course, especially the greens, played great. The course can play quite long depending on which tees you choose to play. That said, pick the tees that set up for your game and it's a great course. Fast, undulating greens with a lot of break - not many straight putts here. Plenty of trees and hazards make for a terrific experience and a rewarding round of golf.

Great course for the money. Great food and staff. Overall 5 stars.

Took a friend who plays very well to The Wilderness. He thought the experience was "delightful".

I played miserably but still enjoyed the round. The course was in fine condition and all of the people are welcoming and likeable, hoping to please the customer.

It was a great course and worth to drive out over an hour. I will go back to play again.

Overall, this course was great. Greens were fast and fairways were very well maintained. I have played here twice. The first time was after a very heavy rain and my one complaint is the course did not drain well and I was forced to play front 9 twice. The second time was a week later and it was much better. Both times I played I was very glad I brought some Off as mosquitos were very bad.

Really good course. The greens are challenging with lots of contours and fast.

Awesome course! Beautiful & well maintained. Challenging layout, yet not quirky or unfair. Cool, rustic clubhouse and very friendly staff and marshals. Well worth the short drive from Houston.

Course is wonderful. True greens--fairways in great shape. Look out for the alligators. Set in a very beautiful natural area with LOTS of water and trees.

This course has a great layout, no houses or anything for that matter to block views of nature. From the doe that crossed in front of us to the snake, we took it all in. Although a hot and muggy day we were able to stand it because the pace was great. The maintenance crew would move as we approached - how often do you that? Even had a cart girl making the rounds.

Well worth the drive out south of Houston. Go have a fun round as it does not over penalize for poor shoots but does reward good shots.

Played Wilderness for the first time yesterday! What a pleasant surprise!! The course was in excellent condition and has an interesting and somewhat challenging (but fair) layout!! Greens were also interesting and in excellent condition.

Course was in excellent condition. One of the best courses I've played in the surrounding area. Friendly staff and easily navigable layout.

Course is in perfect condition. You can tell how much work the crew puts into it. Nice and soft fairways. Greens are immaculate. But the best part is the friendliness and helpfulness of the staff. Most specially the gentleman at the pro shop, Jack. He went out of his way to help and accommodate me, to correct the mistake I made in making wrong date reservation. At golf now. Very professional and accommodating. Playing wilderness is a pleasant and relaxing experience. Definitely endorse it to other golfers.

One of the best courses in the houston area. Love this place

This is one of the best courses in the Houston area. The fairways and sand traps are in great shape. 2 and 3 teir greens are fast and tough. Awesome course can't wait to play it again.

I scheduled a round for Father's Day early enough to have family time afterwards. Since none of my regular golf buddies were able to play, I went as a single. The Marshall paired my up with a threesome which was fine as on A Sunday singles either have to play through a lot or wait on every hole. The course is in excellent shape, as usual. One thing I did notice was the pace on the greens seemed to vary between holes. Over all it was an enjoyable round. I look forward to my next one.

This is a beautiful course and is super clean in every way. Greens were superb, and the holes were challenging enough. Especially the under rated par fives.

My only knocks are
1) Google will point you in the wrong direction and make you overshoot the runway on 288 if you are coming from Houston.
2) You will die from blood loss if you do not come prepared for the Mosquitos. They are everywhere.

Nice shaded parking lot. Courteous staff in club house. Warm up facilities are excellent ( practice green , chipping, sand trap , and driving range). On time tee times. Not over-priced. Well maintained fairways and undulating greens, Fair layout for all handicap levels (pick the tees to fit you handicap). Sand traps were among the best in the Houston area, Greens were large, receptive and fast but not "unfair" pin placements. Well worth the 45 minute drive from southeast Houston

The Wilderness is well worth the drive down to Lake Jackson. From Missouri City, it takes me about 40 minutes.
The link style course is secluded in a wooded refuge. The fairways are wide, but the greens are protected by deep bunkers. There's not a flat spot on the greens, and they role fast and true.

This golf course is a good test of golfing skills and beautiful.

Fun layout and challenging. Front 9 is a good warmup for the back 9, as everything gets tighter and more scenic. It actually gets a little shorter on the back 9, so they throw you a bone there.

The greens are complex and challenging. They always roll true and are fast, but be ready to three putt a few times because of the complexity of the humps on the greens and the larger influencing mounds around the greens.

The par-5s are my favorites. Pack a lunch for playing holes 9 and 18, they are difficult and long. I'll return early and often to play this hidden gem. It is worth the drive from Houston and all of Houston's suburbs.
