Legendary Oaks Golf Course
Rating Snapshot
About
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.

Day of golf
Greens in terrible shape need someone who knows what they are doing, why not go over to cypress lakes golf course and see what greens should be like !
Needs some TLC
I have been playing here since the early 90's after it first went public and had only 9 holes. Over the years the course conditions eb and flow from pretty good to yesterdays round which was pretty poor. I get that we had a freeze and it may take a little while for it to bounce back. We are pretty easy going and enjoyed some time playing with our sons and enjoying some golf time. I realize you need players to make money but if I would have paid more than let's say $35 dollars and not been told of the course conditions, I would have been asking for a refund after the first couple of holes. We hope that things improve soon. It will always be on our rotation but not for a while.

Really fun
Greens need a little tlc… front desk girl awesome. Pace was a little slow
Hello,
Thank you for visiting us. We appreciate your 4-star rating and review. We hope you join us for another round soon.
Course layout is great
Greens are rough this time of year with a mix of bermuda and polenta - they need to mow more often - sand bunkers are not playable since they don’t drain and have become packed wet clay !

Course maintenance is fair
I love the layout - every hole has different challenges - sand traps are mostly clay and unplayable and they don’t drain - the greens are always rough due to non maintenance and different types of grass so they don’t roll true . - however you can’t beat the price for playing a round of golf !
We appreciate you taking the time to review the course and rate us. We are going to pass on your feedback to the team. Thanks for visiting Legendary Oaks Golf Course, and we hope to see you again in the future.

Overbooked as usual
The course was really looking batter the last time I played it about two months ago. Yes we had a hard freeze and I am sure that is part of the issue with no to little grass on the greens. Biggest issue is over booking. Had a 1110 tee time. Was there at 11, (I don't do any warm up hitting on driving range or putting) had multiple foursomes sitting at the first tee waiting. Even saw several groups of 5 playing. Overbooking made for slow play so I only played 9 of the 18 holes I payed for.
We apologize for the pace of play issue you experienced. We always try to keep a great pace when having our golfers on the course. Thank you for taking the time to give us your feedback as we will use your review to better the experience going forward. We hope you give us another try in the near future!
Rundown, Overbooked Jay Reviere rolling in his grave if he saw this.
Once a very good course that has completely fallen into disrepair. I last played and reviewed the course in Sept of 2022, didn’t think it could get worse but they managed to do so. “Fairways” indistinguishable from rough as very little grass is to be found on the course, not a rake to be found at a single bunker, many years back the greens were remarkably good but that was years ago. Tee boxes are uneven and if there’s any grass on them it’s weed grasses. Pace of play is astoundingly slow and not a Marshall in sight on an overbooked holiday. As for the off course amenities, the bathrooms are atrocious. Toilets backed up and water flowing out from the women’s restroom and my wife said it looked like they hadn’t been cleaned in months, men’s restroom no better. Overbooked? Well the Saturday before when calling to ask about tee times we were told just come on out, they were so packed there wasn’t a cart available and there were at least four groups waiting to tee off! I guess a better term would be they don’t care about tee times just pack in the $$’s.

The bathrooms at Legendary Oaks need to be cleaned. They are a disgrace, both the ones near the proshop and the one on hole #4.

Hit or miss
Last time we went course needed some up keep. Fairways are fine. Tee boxes could use some work. And the greens definitely need work. You can still have a good time playing this track. Easy layout not much to get in trouble with. Open fairways and not to many ponds. If you can get the hot deal for $20 on a weekend I say jump on it.

New cart paths
It has been awhile since I’ve played Legendary Oaks. The members (most likely) drive their carts around Greens & Tee Boxes in the shortest path, creating new run down areas / paths where there shouldn’t be. These patrons are showing very little regard for the course, completely disrespecting it & other golfers who are hoping to enjoy a pristine layout. They run over stakes for roping off & do their very best in destroying the course by running straight up between tee boxes onto the fairway & almost never using the cart path or using the 90 degree rule.
