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.

Don’t play this course, the greens are horrible, at least half of the greens are temporary, and nothing appears to be getting done to fix the problem.

What happened?

Way too many greens in poor condition, multiple temporary greens, a disaster. Only two greens were close to good. This course has always been so pretty and a good value for the money. Hopefully the greens recover.

This course is not well maintained other than mowing

Greens are half grass/half sand / hard to putt - bunkers don’t drain and are unplayable - 2 holes had temporary greens of mowed fairway- storm damage limbs laying around - this course could be great with some professional care and maintenance.

Greens not good

Greens not good, sand traps not good, only move pin placements a couple times a month, not good, tee boxes need work, need a greens or course manager that knows what they are doing, reach out to TAMU for guidance. Course has good potential, can only achieve that with hard work.

Great bargain course

It is what it is here. If you can grab a deal for around $20-30, it’s worth it.

Hot & Humid

The course will still need a couple months to get greens back in shape. But the overall conditions otherwise were good. The mowing was behind a bit, due to rain & wet conditions. The mosquitoes were terrible.

Greens were mostly sand!

I don’t understand how a course that is so poorly maintained could be so packed with people. The greens were pretty much unputtable because they were mostly just sand.

The greens are basically sand. Worst greens I have ever seen.

I don’t know what happened to the greens. They are almost completely sand. It made putting almost impossible. The tee boxes aren’t level and mostly domed.

Okay for the $

Played this course 3 times now… its a decent course for the money. However I had to rate it low this time due to greens being absolutely un-playable. I can only assume they are doing some seeding work to redo them… but had I known that PRIOR to booking… I wouldn’t have booked. Would have been nice to have some kind of notice or heads up from the course/app.

No value at all

This place was probably nice back one the day. Currently it’s not very good. Over half the greens had sand on the greens no grass at all. The ball washers were all broken, not muck sand in the bunkers. I like the layout but the owners need to spend some money and bring up to decent standards. GolfNow had a great price but the course was in such bad shape that even at 29$ it was not a good value.

Greens…

The course has some good grass on its fairways & tee boxes (moving tee markers regularly). The greens need a lot more time to be good, probably into July. Will check back.

Poor Green conditions

The greens were the worst I’ve ever seen. 75% of them didn’t even have any grass and you had to put on sand instead. No way should the tee time have been almost 60 bucks for now poor the course conditions were. Hopefully they fix the greens or else it’s really unplayable
