Brenham Country Club

About
Originally a 9-hole course, an additional nine holes were added in 1993, making this a very challenging 18-hole layout with a few monster holes from the back tees (6,721 yards). The course features wide, tree-lined fairways and small greens, as well as water that comes into play on almost half of the holes.
One local told us that short-iron play was important; however, that’s hard to imagine considering the length of some of the holes. Three holes stand out from the tips: Two par 5s play 600 yards or better (No. 11 is 643 yards), and No. 3, a 247-yard par 3. The rest of the layout is of a more reasonable length, particularly from the middle tees, where there are a few short par 5s under 500 yards as well as par 4s around the 300-yard range.
Getting there : From Houston, take Hwy. 290 west and turn right on FM 577. Turn right on Hwy. 105. The course is located 2.5 miles away on the left-hand side of the road.

Fun course
First time playing here, staff was friendly. Pace of play was good, had just rained so driving range was closed and front 9 was cart path only. Confusing layout going from hole to hole at times, could use a little better signs from each hole, mostly on the back it seems. Overall great day, weather was perfect. Definitely had some tricky holes if you haven't played there before that I would play different on a second round.
2 groups of 7
There were 2 groups of 7 playing so pace of play was very slow
Good round
Always enjoy playing here and try to find deal times to save money. Showed up and was told I had to pay 17$ cart fee because it was just “too cheap” at the deal price. I paid because I drove almost an hour to play but was not happy the deal time with a cart was not honored at the course.
Staff friendliness extremely poor
I've frequented this course several times thanks to my friend's membership there. Generally, the course is well-maintained, and the layout is quite engaging. However, my recent experiences over the last five rounds have left me extremely dissatisfied due to the unprofessional behavior of the clubhouse staff and their lack of familiarity with GolfNow policies.
For instance, during one round, I purchased a Hotdeal through GolfNow, and upon arrival, the staff questioned whether I had also paid for the cart. When I confirmed that it was included, I was met with a disrespectful inquiry: "Are you sure you're lying to me?"
GolfNow told me that the course is aware when hotdeals include cart fees and should not be suspiciously asking their guests.
During the last three rounds, my friend and I opted to play a second round on the same day. When I attempted to book my second round, I was only (correctly) charged for cart fees. Despite only having two holes left to play around 4:30 PM, with two groups ahead of us, the clubhouse staff instructed me to return the cart by 5 PM. Despite explaining our situation, that the group ahead was very slow, they insisted that I end my round or bring the cart in and walk back to play the remaining 2 holes. I concluded my round and return the cart, which I did around 5:40 PM.
On my subsequent visit, the staff brought up the previous incident and also informed me that, because I had booked through GolfNow, a second round would now be at full cost. Requesting to speak with the manager, I was met with baseless accusations of rule-breaking and threats of being banned from the course. When I asked for evidence, the manager simply cited hearsay from her staff. The manger then corrected her staff that a second round is NOT at full cost, but cart fees only.
The level of unprofessionalism displayed by the clubhouse staff and manager is astonishing and has significantly tarnished my recent experiences at the course. Very disappointing. Good course, very poor, unfriendly staff service.
Fair course if you…
…stay out of trouble…a lot of mature trees that can make you adjust your shots…played white tees, they were placed at their tips, made each hole play their longest…reading the green are tough, fortunately we had a member playing with us and he would help us read the greens, and it helped…sometimes you red breaking right, it would break left, but our member saved us a lot of embarrassing putts…overall enjoy this course, will definitely book again thru Golfnow.
Fun Course with good pace of play
We finished 18 in 3 and half hours, which was awesome. The course was not overly crowded. The price was right for what you get, nothing super high end but decent greens and over all very enjoyable experience.

The course is in great shape. The greens are back and rolling very well. Staff are friendly and helpful. Had a great time and will be back.

Good Condition - Great value for less than $40!
Course was very playable. The layout is a little strange, very small greens but they had good speed.
