About

Holes 18
Type Public
Par 72
Length 7061 yards
Slope 126
Rating 72.8

Legendary Oaks Golf Club is part of the Lawrence Marshall Family Recreation Center in Hempstead, about an hour northwest of Houston. Stretching to a lengthy 7,061 yards for the back tees, the course boasts several holes that long hitters will enjoy. The layout's par 3s are known to be particularly challenging. The golf course will put your distance to the test but you'll find that accuracy is also needed when negotiating the tighter spots on the course. Water hazards come into play frequently throughout the golf course and there are also many strategically placed bunkers and mature trees to watch out for. Legendary Oaks Golf Club's final hole is a par 4 that demands a tee shot over water while a large willow tree guards the left side and a bunker protects the right. The challenges continue on the uphill second shot.

The course is fun to play

For the money, it's a pretty fun course to play. Not too many hazards to really worry about, few houses and highway being the main ones. Hit straight and you're safe

Need more carts and smaller groups

Due to all the large groups some playing and some spectating. Groups of eight and ten people. Some of these golfers are unaware of the pace of play.

Good course for the price.

While the greens had some issues the fairways were in good shape and the tees were well maintained. It is a tight course with trees everywhere making for challenges. It is a great Muni course out of the city.

Getting there - but slowly

I played back in the fall and this is my first return this year. The tee boxes were mostly unmoved - fairways were firm but better than last time. The majority of the greens are in pretty poor condition. Either dry and cracked or full of weed growth.

Overall - if you find a hot deal, it’s good practice hitting fairways and a fun layout. But don’t expect to score on the greens, which are impossible to keep a line on due to rough shape they are in. If we come back again this year - likely will play until we land the green and then count two strokes and move on.

I hope they get this course back to a condition to make play enjoyable.

Been Awhile

Forgot how good of a layout this course is. Overall it wasn't terrible. Greens were not perfect but I've played worse. They improved after the first few holes. Beautiful oak trees throughout. Hope they continue to improve condition, because it is very enjoyable.

Good practice course for the price. Greens are not in the best of shape. Sand traps are muddy. Fairways are in decent shape. Took over 4 hours to play due to slow play. Some golfers playing 2 or more balls. Over all a good improvement since last played.

Course Has Improved

It had been awhile since I had okayed here, the area has grown, the course is great for the money, still needs work, but if you’re a duffer like me and returning to the links after a long layoff this is the place to play.
