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.

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.

This course was in terrible conditions
This course was by far in the worst conditions I have ever seen or played on. For $45 dollars you’d at least expect to be able to see where the greens start and end. The greens were 90% sand. Had to play through a sprinkler running while we played as well. Fairways, well there weren’t any. Absolutely terrible course. I will never play there again!
Thank you for reviewing the course. Let us first start by apologizing for the poor experience you had during your visit. The current condition is by no means the standard we strive to achieve, and we are working towards getting things up to par. Thank you for playing Legendary Oaks Golf Course. We hope to see you again soon.
All good, greens are coming back after winter storm freeze.
We appreciate you leaving a review and rating us. We will inform the entire team, so they know their hard work is paying off. We look forward to having you back at Legendary Oaks Golf Course!
Have seen the course in better shape
Course is in bad shape. Greens are almost all sand. Fairways are very patchy. Needs some serious TLC. Hope they get this fixed, used to be a great course.

Excruciatingly slow play
The pace of play was 4 1/2 hours. The ranger/ marshal was more interested in having a beer with his mates in the group in front than getting the groups to speed up in front. We waited every shot on every hole.
We apologize for the pace of play during your round. This is by no means the standard we strive to achieve. We will continue to look for ways to improve. Thank you for playing Legendary Oaks Golf Course. We hope to see you again soon.

Good iron practice but terrible greens
An underfunded course with minimal practice areas and extremely bad greens but inexpensive and good practice until you get to the greens. The area around the clubhouse is very poorly maintained with minimal facilities.
Their gas powered golf carts are fantastic.

Freeze took its toll
The course was in decent shape. Had a 1050 am tee time. Course was still really wet from sprinklers. And obviously the recent winter freeze is playing havoc with the greens. Fairways need a good bit of work. Lots of clumps and dirt spots.
Hello, spd923. Thank you for taking the time to leave us a review. We are sorry to see that your overall experience was anything short of 5 stars, but we hope you'll give us another try in the near future. Thanks for choosing Legendary Oaks Golf Course.
Awful conditions
I have NEVER seen this course in such poor shape. I understand the hard freeze can explain the dead greens that are equivalent to putting on tarmac....but the the fairways are literally dirt with small tufts of grass. I sure hope the “Hiring Course Maintenance Manager” sign in the window doesn’t stay up for long. Definitely won’t be back until conditions improve, even at twenty a round it’s not worth it. On the bright side, pace of play was amazing...I guess most have figured out what I did.

Terrible condition!
My friends and I have played this course several times and we have grown to like it. However, in the recent months the course conditions have really deteriorated. The tee boxes are mostly dirt and uneven, the greens are in awful shape and last but not least, the fairways are atrocious. I realize that this is the dormant season, but that's no excuse because I've played other courses during this time and they were in way better condition. I will not be back anything soon and neither will any of my friends. However they did get all new golf carts, so I'm sure a price hike is on the horizon.

Winter Golf
conditions are as expected this time of year. Good place and good pricing if you don't mind a short drive.

Needs improvement
Although its winter the greens are horrible right now. The carts are in bad shape. The wheels are bald and carts are not cleaned. The owner needs to put more money in the course and less in there pockets. Course is opened 7 days a week which means no maintenance days. SAD

Cool layout fast greens poor fairways
Course layout was interesting and fun but the condition of tee boxes and fairways were awful. Middle of the fairway was like hitting out of fairway bunker in a lot of places. Greens rolled great and fast but were very brown.

Need to grow some grass
I've been playing this course for years and have never seen it in this condition. Most all fairways and tee boxes are dirt. Greens were never winter seeded this year. Winter conditions are one thing but this is just neglect. Might check back in a couple months but probably not.
