Bare Minimums

Staff was friendly and great value for the money.

Heads up pro shop is limited and no alcohol sales on property or beverage cart, and no drinking water on the course at all.

A handful of greens just covered in weeds and most tee boxes are bare sand but still playable. Carts are decent no coolers gps or washers, with a little more investment off the course this could be a great course.

Really nice layout with beautiful rolling hills. Greens are in good condition, with most of fairways in good condition. This is a challenging course, good for both low and high handcap players. I will definitely play this course again.

Course Marshalls needed

Played behind a threesome today that left pretty good reasoning to go to a par three course first. Took four hours and 45 minutes to play.

Always Slow

I have played at this course multiple times and I have always had a terrible experience with pace of play. This time it was due to a group that was allowed to play with 6 people. UNSAT. They were slow and they did not let people go through. The fact that the course does not have amenities (none) and does not staff a marshal to ensure pace of play, I would not recommend spending the time and money to play at this course. Do better.

Great looking course!

Great Lakes exceeded our expectation, especially when compared to other public courses in the area.

Very hilly fairways, but the challenge was apt.

Sadly, facilities are lacking (porta-potties on 6 and 17), but the staff was friendly and the greens were in excellent shape.

So quiet out there, too. Definitely need a cart, though, as some of the holes are quite a distance from one another. Cart paths are all concrete all the way.

Great Layout

Course offers a wide variety of holes and terrain changes, which is uncommon for Houston. Some long par 4's and short ones mixed in. Greens break way more than first appearance. My gripe is there are no yardage markers on the course, no sprinkler heads, nothing marked on the cart paths and nothing in the fairways! Everything is an educated guess. Spend $100 on some paint and at least mark the cart paths at 250, 200, 150 and a 100
