Spring Valley Golf and Disc Golf Club
About
Spring Valley is the realization of the late, great Texan Vernon A. Roland, who grew up on the land, served the country in World War II, and became a successful businessman by running Houston's Roland Cleaners. A man who knew the land intimately, he originally purchased the land to run a sawmill but then he fell in love with the great game of golf, which inspired him to build this charming little 9-holer.
Roland opened this par-34, executive-like track in 1993 amid the tranquil beauty around Spring Creek. Roland's course is fun, sporting five par 4s well under 300 yards, three short-iron-only par 3s, and a reachable par 5 as the opening hole, which also happens to be the number one handicap.
Getting there : From Houston take I-45 north to FM 2920, then turn left under the freeway. Take 2920 to Rhodes Rd. and turn left on Spring Stuebner. Gosling road is ahead, where you'll turn right and drive 3 miles to the course.

Good course for beginners who’ve never played a round to get the feel of golf
Spring Valley
Course could use maintenance and the greens are in pretty bad shape. Additionally, you’re constantly intersecting your play with disc golfers.
Course for the non professional.
Good course for the money. Not the best course conditions, meaning most greens are more sand than grass but the fairways are decent. It is definitely challenging to play through the narrow fairways but fun. If you get tired after playing a round but are into disc golf, rent some discs and take off. I have played here a few times but am still working on my game so I’ll use this as a good practice course. Definitely not knocking this place as the area is cool and the people are even cooler. Would play it again and recommend to friends. Side note, the gofers here are pretty destructive.
TRASH
This is not an executive 9 hole course. This is a disc golf course with some poorly taken care of golf holes. The greens are sand, with little to no grass. The fairways didn’t have grass in many spots, so you were hitting approaches out of sand and/or gravel. This was my first time playing bc I am new to the area. Will NEVER waste money there again. Do not go there unless you’re teaching your 5 yr old how to golf for the first time.
Great golf course for the money
short course most par 4 holes are between 220 to 260 yards, You can knock off the 9 holes in about 2 hours. Friendly staff. Overall great value.
Poor Customer Service
Waited over an hour past scheduled tee time due to the lack of carts and never received an apology for the delay. Friendliness can go a long way.
Do NOT golf here!
Absolutely terrible golf course. Paid $13, and it was too much. Don’t get me wrong, my expectations were not high considering how cheap it was, but it did not even live up to what I expected. I don’t expect to have to putt through sand patches on the greens. It is cart path only, because we were told “our grass is not meant for that”. Translation: our fairways have a sand base and it is basically like playing from a bunker. Most tee boxes were torn up and impossible to put a tee in the ground. It is clear they have completely let the golf course to focus on disc golf.
On top of that when checking in, the guy in the pro shop told me to write 51 and 0 on the golf cart waiver. When I got to the carts, I saw 51 but there was no 0. I assumed that it was just a filler for a second cart so we took 59. Then when we were on the first tee, he comes yelling at us asking what carts we took and he told us we were supposed to take the one that was blank, honest mistake. He then complains about us to the man warming up on the practice green, loud enough where we can hear him from 30 yards away. He then goes to the pro shop and comes back and tells the man warming up which cart he now should take “since the group in front of us didn’t listen”. Still saying loud enough we could hear from 30 yards away, while we were trying to take out tee shots by the way. Oh and by the way, the guy warming up took his cart before us and it was the one that was supposed to be assigned to us.
Slow peace and rude players
Very slow peace, greens in poor condition with a lot of sand on it, rude people playing (one guy hit 2 ball after where we were playing even us with a kid of 8 yo). We played in 2 people not from the same household and we need to pay extra for the second car ($13).
A course to not come back.
Great Course for new golfers
I took my 11 year old for his ever 9 hole round. He had a blast. He is already asking when he can go back.
If Sandlot was a course
Staff is very friendly and kind. The course is rough. Greens and fairways were ROUGH. Unfortunately I will not be back.
