First time

It must have been great once

But now it's all a bit down trodden

First 9 that go into the forest is wonderful setting

Yet let down by the greens and bare fairways

Back 9 through what I can only guess were old resort accommodations is tight and the course conditions are poor

I felt as though I could be in the gardens of the apartments as there are no fences

Value for money off the app

Practice green and bunker not been looked st in a while

Stone Bridge at NEwport

This is the 20th time to play this course.

It has came a long way since it's recent purchase and new management. Course is undergoing upgrades to greens and tees along with sprinkler system upgrades.

New Gas Carts with ball/club washers onboard, nice new Pro Shop, and now has a Cart Gal serving Bloodies to start of the morning!

Green quality

For one of the area golf courses available in the Northeast Houston. The greens in this course is above average. Congrats to the greens keeper, you are doing a good job. There are some parts of the greens that are barely with grass but under the current season that's understandable. Fairways need more TLC (dollar weeds and such). There are times that it ends up being a flyer lie in the middle of the fairway.

Greens were brown, no hole markers at tee boxes, but it was still a good day of golf for the price we paid.

Great Round!!!

My 13yr old son and I had a great time playing this course. It is a very nice course, Beautiful woods surrounding most holes. Even enjoyed a little wild life company with the turtles at the pond and we spotted a bald eagle. Course only has like 2 water hazards. Lots of woods, brush and residential back yards if you don't stay on the fairway but we had no problem with that. We both lost maybe 2 balls each and actually found about 7 balls total, that was a fist leaving with more balls than we came with, lol. Pace was great never felt rushed and group in front moved along well. Really enjoyed the ball and club cleaner attached to the cart, that came in very very handy! One thing I will say is that I wish each hole was marked. We accidentally started on the back nine and didn't realize it till my gps showed me on hole 13. But I definitely look forward to returning an playing this course as often as I can. Even think I will use this course to help gauge my playing score average because it was so much fun.

Extremely fun course

Course is full of big and very fun dog legs. This course is so much fun and can really make you work for it on some holes. This time of year can leave some courses in pretty rough shape but they have done a great job with keeping up with it.

Tee Boxes

This course was exactly what I needed, to start playing again after 6 months. My only real complaint, is that there are no tee box markers. Nothing to identify hole number or hole layout. I will be back.

Value course - worth if you are on east side

Its an average course in average condition but I got a Hot Deal price, $10+$5 fees=$15, that made this a great value.

Would like to play the course when its a dry. Will play it again if I can get another Hot Deal.

Ok Course, Terrible Managment

Course: Tee boxes could use some work. Fairway was not so good, they had been mowed when grass was too long and the trimmings just left there. Then it rained and created baskets of dead grass all over. Greens were receiving some needed TLC but based on rest of my experience there, doubt they will ever be good. The new carts with club and ball washer was a nice touch.

Reserved and purchased on Golf Now @ $25 each. Was a bit surprised when we got to pro shop and big sign on door stating that course was closed till 1400 due to private party- wedding golf tournament. Checked in and my buddy was approached by Jeremy (Course Manager) and told to get started asap and shouldn’t be a problem as long as we don’t start @ same time as everyone else. By start of third hole we were now surrounded by groups of 5-8 members on each hole and now felt like we are intruding someone’s special day/wedding. After requesting cart girl to have marshal come find us so we can move holes to be less intrusive – no one appeared. Father of bride approached us in middle of 5th hole to inform us that we are in the middle of a private tournament…… Needless to say – everyone was frustrated and made the entire day very SLOW & AKWARD. I went back to pro shop @ the turn – asked to see manager when a young kid asked how he could help. After explaining the situation, he basically said it’s my fault and nothing he could do. To say his attitude was bad would be an understatement – I again requested to see the manager. After waiting 5 more mins, Jeremy the manager approached and again I explained the situation. He blamed golfnow and that they sold spots before they could close it off to public. I asked when the wedding tournament planned (‘Oh I don’t know, months ago’). So why then was I able to book a tee time on Tuesday(4 days prior) when this should have been blacked out months ago?? Blank Stare. OR If you knew after Golfnow made reservation, why didn’t anyone call us and we would be happy to go book a new round. No I’m sorry or yea we screwed up, just tough luck and go fly a kite was the feedback I got. Even if he had offered another free round at course at later date I would haven’t accepted it as this course is meh and not worth the drive.

Dear UPPER Management,

Your current workforce is seriously lacking the leadership and accountability necessary to meet its customers’ needs and expectations. I have lived in Houston for past 6 months and golfed on average 2 times per week, I will never come back and will share my experience with my friends and colleagues.

Long drive

Got a very good deal on GolfNow for a Saturday round. Was a long drive from downtown. The course was nicer than I expected after driving through the town on Crosby on the way in. I really liked their new carts with the ball and club washer on the side. They had lots of greens under repair, you could play onto every green but at least half the greens had large areas covered in sand. Sand traps have pebbles in the sand. Fairways and tee boxes have healthy grass (but different grass species on different holes). Fairways needed to be blown, had lots of leaves. Layout was interesting except the ~5 holes which were narrow with houses. Played the back tees and it didn't feel like 6900 yards-- the par 4's are all short, most of the distance is on par 3's and 5's. Shot under par without much difficulty. Overall it looks like they're putting some good effort into repairing greens and course conditions as a whole. The course is comparable to Country Place (prior to renovation) or Clear Creek. Would play again for this cheap (<$20 on a Saturday) if not for the drive, will probably play elsewhere instead.

Greens were a little rough as they were in the middle of doing some patch work on them and fairways need some growth. However none of that took away from a great round of golf.
