About
Houston National Golf Club, located in the northwestern part of the city, definitely follows the old adage that "everything is bigger in Texas." This whopping course stretches to 7,337 yards from the back tees. It is a lengthy golf course no doubt, but it doesn't just favor those who can hit long. The layout has a unique links design, so long hitters will be pleased but they will have to be careful of the numerous pot bunkers and other strategically placed hazards waiting treacherously throughout. The golf course has an interesting character that sets it apart from others nearby thanks to a landscape of rolling hills and hardly any trees, a surprise since there is no shortage of trees in the area. Houston National Golf Club's wide-open links design also subjects golfers to the strong prevailing winds, making several of the holes especially tricky.

Great course for the $65 at 11:30
Good course, can’t complain about the course at all. A few bare spots here and there and a dead patch on 2 greens, but that’s summer in Houston for a golf course. Nothing to really do about that, and any that were apparent were minimized. Worth the $65 if you’re a regular golfer. Rained out at 9, so I have to get ahold of GolfNow for the rain check, but that’s a golf now policy, not the course. Definitely will be back.
Wow! We are so happy you enjoyed your round! We look forward to seeing you again soon at Houston National Golf Club.
Hello and thank you for your 5-star rating! We're delighted you enjoyed your round. Please book another round with us soon, and thanks for choosing Houston National Golf Club!
Great course
First time playing this course, I am by no means a pro. Just an average guy. It’s a great course of you can hit the “Long Ball” as well as the more technical players that excel at the short game. Will play again
We're glad to hear you had a great first time playing Houston National Golf Club! We look forward to having you back soon.
Played here a lot over the years
First time I can say I was really disappointed. Had a 12:20 tee time, checked in 12 and couldn't even get a cart until 12:30. No marshalls out here to keep pace so we got to the par 3 7th and had 3 groups backed up and waiting.
The priority is definitely the Sterling side. Could be a top public course in Houston, maybe Texas, if the effort and money were there.
Thank you so much for leaving us with your feedback. We value our customer experience, so your review is important to us. We will make note and we hope to see you back at Houston National Golf Club!

Good Course
Interesting layout and fun to play. Greens were challenging and fairways were narrow and undulated. Too bad there was no marshal on patrol to speed up the pace!
Two guys were yelling when I was putting, which was annoying, but then, when I approached them for an explanation, they said “we were just messing with you guys. It’s not for slow play or anything “. Morons!
Thank you for taking the time to review us! Your feedback is valuable, and we hope to have you back again soon. Houston National Golf Club thanks you!
Recovered well
I golfed here after the snow storm and the course took a beating. There was a storm the night before I played and you would think the course would be wet but it was emaculate! The course recovered well and the greens rolled great!
Thank you for your review! We will pass along your positive experience to our team at Houston National Golf Club. We look forward to seeing you again soon.
Not even rain could make this one a bad round
Good facilites and very convenient all you can hit range balls for 5 dollars. Rain made its way through the course but good drainage kept the round going. Other than hole 12 no other hole had standing water will all the rainfall we have receive during the last week. Greens were firm but receptive and the pace was a tad fast but playable. Great experience will come back is the discounted tee time.is available again.

À Nice golf for a good price
Very friendly staff and people around.
It looked like you are in a family.
We asked for a golf bag and they gave it to us free of charge and every one there was so friendly.
On the course we changed to the other private golf and again some people told us we were wrong and told us the Wright way and again very friendly.
After the golf we went for a lunch and again like we were member of the family.
The only negativfremark was about the condition of the ground that was to dry but that is probably due to the weather conditions in the region I believe!
Thank you for taking the time to review us! Your feedback is valuable, and we look forward to delivering you excellent service again soon. Houston National Golf Club thanks you!
