Freeport Municipal Golf Course
About
Freeport's muni is more of a links-style track noted for its solid par 5 holes. Water comes into play in the form of rivers and lakes, but the course isn't overloaded with water. The par 5s in question each play well over 500 yards, and they're all rated as the most difficult holes on the course. No. 9 is the longest at 557 yards, but the most difficult is No. 7 at 520 yards.
Getting there : Driving north on Hwy. 36, turn right at Slaughter Rd. You will see the course when Slaughter dead-ends.

Great value
I will definitely play here again. Over an hour away but for the money this was a great find!
Tee boxes and greens are in great shape. At first sight I thought the greens were going to be really slow but I was wrong. They had decent pace and rolled true. Fairways were hard and a bit sparse in spots so I lost a few balls to water hazards when trying to lay up. Water somewhere on almost every hole but not overly punitive. Windy as expected.
Clubhouse leaves a little to be desired but I don’t go for the clubhouse. Not much in the way of food or snacks.
Will definitely play again.
Good course
Love this course. Fun layout and you can't beat the prices in the afternoon. I'd recommend this course to anyone!
Hard to Find a Better Golf Course
Sometimes on my days off work, I look into traveling the Houston area to try out courses other than Freeport, but then when I see reviewed photos of other places, I know that my money and my time is better spent here. The greens here are fabulous. Grass is well kept. Tee boxes are clean. Water is always freezing cold and in supply. My only suggestion is don't come hungry, they don't have a lot to choose from in the snack and sandwich department.
Fun Course
Fun to play , watch the water hazards for alligators!! Very friendly staff!
Best course south of houston
Tight fairways and lots of water , Will make you a better golfer . Best course south of houston , Course maintenance is worth every penny spent here
Well managed golf course
The course has nice layout and is quite challenging. Has water to consider on almost every hole.
Water, water everywhere.
Don't play here if you don't like water in play on just about every hole.
Fairways in good shape, greens in fine condition.. Holes pretty much straight, with variation only in length.
Decent enough
Started off with half a basket of muddy range balls, but fortunately got better from there. Only other downside was the standing water on parts of the course. Other than that tee boxes, fairways, and greens were pretty good for the money.
Pace of Play an issue
Pace of play is the only issue. There was a 5 some that slowed 4 groups down to a halt. The twosome behind them wasn’t offered to play through. Other than this, the greens are rolling pure and fairly fast.
Very nice course
This golf course has water to deal with on most holes. It is quite a challenging course but very enjoyable to play.
