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.

Stay out of the bunkers
Sand traps were unplayable: full of water and hard packed.

Fair course...poor marshall / staff
Every time I have played at this course, regardless of the pace of the group I am with, the marshall addresses our group regarding pace. I swore I would not play at this course again but got sucked in. Sure enough, with a single (slow) player ahead and a double behind, our foursome was making very good time...but around hole 4 or 5, here comes the marshall…"we are getting complaints...blah, blah, blah"...heard it all before, and I've learned my lesson. Sayanara, Legendary Oaks.

enjoy your course, fun to play
I play your course about three times per month. It is in good shape. A great course for a duffer like me. It is 42 miles from where I live. Plan to have a church group outing in early April.

Great Value
I’ve played courses all over the country including Spyglass and Pebble Beach - and I can tell you, this course is no Pebble. But for the money and for where it is located, it’s a great deal. After heavy rains and it being winter time, the course was very playable. They offer Senior rates and their standard rate is reasonable. The course conditions are “okay” with decent fairways and soft greens. They have some challenging holes that will test the best golfers. Overall, I give this a thumbs up, especially since I do not need to drive into Houston to play.
Good value, fast to dry
This course is a very good layout, and dries quickly after rain. They are always working to improve the course and usually moves along to be able to finish in 3 to 4 hours. Greens need work but still winter here so cutting them slack.
Hello, we're glad you enjoyed our nice course layout. Thank you for playing Legendary Oaks Golf Course! #LegendaryOaksGC

Sandy beaches
The sand traps are the main issues on this course. They don’t drain rain water very well or at all in some cases. Poor condition mostly. I understand with all of the rain the course has had is not their fault, but seems like traps don’t get much attention. My friends tell me to stop hitting into traps HA HA But we love the course in general. Great staff!!!
Hello, we're glad you enjoyed our friendly staff. Thank you for playing Legendary Oaks Golf Course!
Rough Course
The course was in awful shape today. No grass on the greens. Several parts of fairways that were muddy or had no grass. Several bunkers were full of water 1.5 days after the most recent rain. It appears legendary oaks is more focused on building new homes on the course instead of proper course maintenance.
Hello, we're sorry you didn't fully enjoy your round. Our goal at Legendary Oaks Golf Course is for every player to enjoy their experience. Thank you for playing, we hope you give us another chance in the future.
They really let it go.
It was like playing in the cow pasture. Green were decent, but from tee to greens was really tough. Most tee boxes were bare. The fairways were tough, like hitting off mud.
Hello, we appreciate your feedback. Thank you for playing Legendary Oaks Golf Course!
No enforcement
Golfers driving carts next to greens and tee boxes and on par 3’s when you are NOT supposed to be. 5 players sometimes not letting players thru. Not raking sand traps.
Hello, thank you for the great 4-star review!
Covered in gnat bugs
Deep woods off would not keep gnats from swarming my face on every shot. I would give more stars if they simply sprayed and killed the gnats. There is an infestation. Course is always a good price. Workers are nice Greens are often a concern. Pace of play always slow due to players not understanding ediquet and the total lack of any employees watching pace of play.
needs work
the course is starting to look a little sloppy needs work. looks like one of the ladys that works at the front is starting to come down a bit, she is not as rude as she normally is. Looks like she is bothered by you coming in. For the most party the course is still ok. for the price. NO ONE manages the flow of golfers speed.. sometimes is VERY SLOW, no one around to tell

Excellent course, not crowded and reasonably priced
Loved the course. Not crowded and the pace of play was good. Not a lot of trees to deal with. Water hazards are just enough to keep you on your toes. Priced reasonably and the staff is there to make your day wonderful.
Hello, we appreciate your feedback. Thank you for playing Legendary Oaks Golf Course!
Hello, thank you for the fantastic 5-star review! #LegendaryOaksGolfCourse
Nice layout with watch challenges throughout
This was a 45 min drive to the course but my brother in law and I were pleasantly surprised at the course. For the deal price of $20 plus a $5.50 bucketloads of balls be were happy. This time of year in Texas your not going to fine every thing green but the course was in good shape. The greens had recently had sand purée on them. We truly enjoyed our pace of play and the challenges of the course.
