Chambers County Golf Course
Rating Snapshot
About
Towns of 2,000 residents tend to offer the ultimate in confidence-building golf, which is definitely the case here at Chambers County. Most of those courses are only 9-holers, however. This 1960s-style track, built by county engineer R.T. Pinchback, boasts the full 18, which lay out over 180 acres of heavily wooded wetlands on the east side of Galveston Bay.
Pinchback's design is mostly open, although there are a few holes with narrow, tree-lined fairways. Bunkering is minimal, and the rough is manageable if you miss the fairway. Water comes into play on over half the holes.
Two holes stand out on each side. No. 6 is the most beautiful: a 428-yard tester that requires two shots over water before reaching the green. No. 18 features one of those narrow fairways, tight at only 25 yards and intimidating because it's generally into the wind. The hole bends and you'll need a 250-yard drive to reach the corner.
Getting there : Take I-10 east from Houston and exit 812. Turn right, and the course is on the left down the road.

A fun place to play
Always have a great time at Chambers County. I play here 4 times a year. Wish they had more food available.
best affordable golf
For the money, this is the best course on the far east side of Houston. Pace of play is great. Friendly staff and most golfers will let you play through when they should.
Chambers County little secret
I play this course any time I come to the Houston area. It has a unique feel and it is superb for being a County golf course. The greens are always in great shape and well maintained. The fairways are narrow with trees lining the sides which can make for some interesting shots. Your skills can be put on display off of the tee box on any hole, this course is designed very well with dog legs being perfect disntance an water hazards placed in some challenging locations which gets to the mental aspect of the game. There are not many sand bunkers or changes in elevation through the golf course. Probably the biggest problem I have with the course are the tee boxes are not level. They have been doing a lot of work over the past couple of years and I would imagine it is on their to do list. Overall this is a great course and very fun to play!
