About

Holes 18
Type Public
Par 72
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.

Still in bad shape

We use to play here all the time until it went downhill. Not sure what changed. The greens are better than they were in the summer. In 2023 this course had the best greens considering the lack of rain. The fairways are soft but not close to being a "fairway". No cart girl. Overall this is the definition of a public course. The price attracts new golfers so the course play could be really slow. We got lucky and teed off before the 6 some did.

Decent shape

Compared to a year ago it’s in great shape. Still some work being done on the greens but it’s loads better than it was. And for $40 you can’t really beat it.

Good for the money

Driving in, you feel like you’re in the country- because you are. Entrance looked like in the 80s, this was a happenin’ place. I only tried the course. The range is off to the left of the clubhouse if you have time. Course tee boxes have distance, a map, and a Bible verse, which reminded me to appreciate the beauty of being outside, playing golf, and not working. And to watch my mouth the best I can.

Fairly wide open fairways on the 4s and 5s. 3s were also open and some had weren’t distance to them. Water at places to consider laying up or trying to carry with your driver. Had some work crews working, so made sure to keep an eye out - just in case my ball flies their direction.

Had a 5 some in front of us, but they were playing like there were 4 of them. Didn’t bother us a bit. Could have been a group of buddies that haven’t seen each other in years for all we knew. We had a group behind us too that weren’t pushing and taking their time too. All good!

Good prices on merch, stocked cold drinks, and free hot coffee.

Review

When we got there the staff was very friendly greeting us. The condition of the course was really good and the layout was pretty different it seemed to mainly play a fade. Which for a player who plays a draw made it pretty difficult. Moving on from that at about the six hole we got rained out, so we went to the clubhouse and with no questions asked they were very friendly and understanding and gave us a full eighteen hole rain check. Overall really enjoyed other than the rain really friendly staff definitely recommend.

Getting better

They are finally improving the greens. Fairways have a lot of weeds.

Bathrooms are hideously awful. They need to have them cleaned once a week at least.

Course is getting better

Went to visit legendary today 10/14, Overall a good course, you can see they are making an effort to get their course up to par to others.

Fairways were cut and easy to find your ball with actual grass, and the greens rolled well with a few brown patches on some holes but nothing to be mad about. Especially for a weekday rate is def not bad to get in 18. Will come back for another round.

Only thing I would comment on is the flag stick, it was a windy day so they were just leaning sideways instead of staying in their spot.

Getting a little better

The greens are getting better, They had no way to go except up, because there were absolutely awful before. So much so I stopped going there for a while. The grass was also mowed, which was a very big earlier. So it is getting better

Fun

For a little course what seemed out in the middle of nowhere, it was in good winter condition.

We were able to go off a little bit early on a Wednesday and great pace of play.

The course was challenging and enjoyable for the cost.

Course Complete

It has been awhile since playing here. It was good to see that a lot of places that were roped off have grown up & renewed itself. Also, great to see the greens have all taken shape. Hopefully it will stay this way. I really enjoyed myself.

looks like they've been improving. first time on the course. worth every bit of the $20 it cost.

Been alot better if the 16year Olds in front of me hadn't been treating the course like a play ground.

Took 1hr for me (alone) to play the front. 2.5 hrs to play the back. Playing hopscotch on the green, taking baseballs swings on the green. 6 balls off the tee. Wouldn't let me play through Very annoying.

My dumb self didn't think about skipping a hole until later.
