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.

Course has a good challenging layout

Some of the greens were in bad shape, maybe because of a freeze and then warm weather.

Nice greens.

First time here. 1 hour drive from home. Very cold day with a little wind and light rain.

Course was a little soggy due to our rainy fall. Some cart path only holes. Tees and fairways were good but the greens were very good, amongst the best I’ve played.

Clubhouse/restaurant had a good burger and Karbach beer on tap!

The green on #6 is saturated, and has been on numerous occasions. Ridges in green from mower made it impossible to have a good chance of sinking a put from outside 2 ft.

Incredibly disrespectful Course Member, Course Ranger, and Owner

Been here many times over the past couple of years but this round was the most horrifying day on a golf course ever experienced incited by two individuals who deemed for whatever reasons, they were more entitled to be playing golf than anyone else on the course. In addition, for the course ranger (George) and owner to condone this behavior because they knew the guy and his partner is absolutely ludicrous at best! Gents (and families), find a safer and less life-threatening place to play golf that does not require the involvement of the local authorities to end your pleasureful day of golf.

Fairways and greens were in good condition. Sand traps were wet from recent rains and mostly dirt since sand keeps getting washed out. I never have liked hole number 6 with its moat around the green; other than that hole the course is a nice design with not much trouble.

Great time.

Even with all of the rain, the course had excellent drainage and was extremely playable. Couple of green held to much water which affected putting speed. Only negative is woman in pro shop is grumpy

Best Value near Houston

Legendary Oaks is the best value near Houston. Well worth the drive North on 290. Great layout, friendly people, in a country atmosphere. Putting conditions are good, a little slow but true. Plenty of challenges, play from the tee box based on your handicap. A move between white and blue can result in significant strokes.

Not that great, but hard to do better for the price

I have been on worse courses and for $31 is hard to do better in the Houston area. My biggest complaint was that several of the green had these water hazards completely surrounding the greens on all sides. These were not nice water areas, they were little more than ditches only about 10 feet wide and filled with water designed to suck up balls. It seemed pretty unfair to be honest.

Other than that, the course was fair. The greens were pretty decent and the fairways cute nice.
