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.

Review
Staff is nice, good for playing with groups. Green fees shouldn’t exist because all greens are brown.
We love hearing about our golfers' experiences, Please tell us more about what you enjoyed during your round. Thanks for choosing Legendary Oaks Golf Course!
Greens
Needs lots of work on course. All greens are dead! Bridges need work for safety!
Hello, thank you for taking the time to review our course.

We greatly value your feedback as we work towards any necessary improvements and hope you will notice some of these improvements during your next round with us. Thank you for choosing our course, and we hope to see you again soon.
Greens need lots of work
I believe the winter freeze took its toll on the greens. The fairways are OK but the sandctraps are full of water. Fortunately I wasn't in the sand often. In the past the course has been nicely maintained & I trust it will be again
Hello, Thank you for reviewing the course. Let us first start by apologizing for the poor experience you had during your visit. Your feedback about the sand traps is important to us. We are working to get everything at the course up to par. We have a project to tile the bunkers and restore them. The current condition is not the standard we strive to achieve. We are going to escalate your feedback to our team so we can make improvements before your next game. We are glad to see you rated the course layout to be great during your game. We will continue to work towards an excellent experience by using your comment for guidance. Thank you for playing Legendary Oaks Golf Course. We hope to see you again soon.
Golf Now Sucks
This review is for golf now.. I accidentally booked the date and Golf Now would not let me change the date so I had to pay twice. What a rip off!!! They count on people making mistakes and capitalize on it. Don’t use the app it is a rip off!!!
We would like to apologize for any inconvenience you experienced when booking your tee time. Our goal is to provide our golfers with all relevant information when booking their round online. We apologize if we missed the mark. Thank you for choosing Legendary Oaks Golf Course!
Greens
#8 & #16 geeens didn’t have any grass at all. Small patch on #8. Although all greens had some bad spots, most were ok. The fairways were in really good shape & there was a couple mowers cutting the rough, just in time for another week of rain.
Thank you for visiting us at Legendary Oaks Golf Course. We appreciate your 4-star rating and review. We hope you join us for another round soon.
Where are the greens?
Nice people. Great pace of play. But the tee boxes were terrible and the greens non-existent. Only two greens had grass. The rest were a combination of dirt and rough.
Thank you for reviewing the course. Your feedback about the course is important to us. We are working to get everything up to par. We have projects ongoing to recover the tee boxes and greens. The current condition is by no means the standard we strive to achieve.

Thank you for playing Legendary Oaks Golf Course. We hope to see you again soon.
Bad greens
Poor green conditions are somewhat excusable in winter, but not in May. Serious problems on multiple greens. Inconsistent greens with multiple patches of disease and bare spots. Very slow pace of play. Needs better marshaling.

Course in bad shape
Good luck putting on those greens! Or should I say browns, some had no grass.

Not for a long time
Never say never! But, darn! Worst kept course I have play in over 5 years. 2 greens were green. The rest were dirt or spotted. Bunkers were dried mud flats

Few greens in rough condition due to re-seeding but in 2 weeks should be in great shape.

Has seen better days
A once really nice course has been in decline for a while now.
Im guessing greens aren’t recovering from the freeze earlier this year. Mostly bare, very wet and soft.
Fairways were ok but a lot of bare spots.
Glad I got a really cheap green fee.
Won’t be going back until conditions improve dramatically.
We appreciate you taking the time to review the course and rate us. Please bear with us as we work diligently to make improvements. We hope you'll give us another try in the future. Thanks for choosing Legendary Oaks Golf Course.

Save your money don’t play here
Legendary Oaks was once a great little country golf course with a nice layout. The course has never been in optimal condition but today what is something totally different. There was literally no grass on the greens mud and fungus no grass in the fairways also mud. It had been raining last night but this had nothing to do with the poor course condition. I’m not sure of the course can recover without a complete makeover. The cost was $48 today and at $15 it would not have been a good value.

Thank you so much for the great review. We are glad you had an incredible time, and we hope to see you again soon! Thanks for choosing Legendary Oaks Golf Course.
Goat Ranch
This course is in bad need of work. The greens for the most part in terrible shape, the tee boxes abysmal. Fairways were intermittently bad or moderately bad depending on the hole. Vey bad distance marking, nasty clubhouse bathroom - just overall neglect and mismanage of a course that is laid out fairly intriguing.
If the cost wasn't so reasonable I would rate this place even lower.
Thank you for taking the time to review the course. We take single star feedback very seriously at our course. You are welcome to comment further or reach out to our team in the golf shop. We always appreciate the feedback. Thank you for playing Legendary Oaks Golf Course.
We appreciate you taking the time to leave us a review. We would love to know how we can earn those last two stars next time! Thanks for playing Legendary Oaks Golf Course.
Good Layout But Needs Grass
Fun layout but the overall condition of the course is poor. Hopefully, spring will see the grass on the fairways and tee boxes grow in.

Course needs work
I have been playing Legendary Oaks for many years and can say the greens were the worst I have ever seen. Not much grass and much of green is hard mud. I play other similar level courses in the area whose fairways and greens are dramatically better.
LO needs to hire another greens keeper or they will start losing many customers.
I like LO since it is a great value thru Golf Now discounts, however, I can no longer convince my golfing buddies to play there.
