Clear Creek Golf Course is a flat, wide-open links-style track loaded with water and bunkers. The only sort of elevation changes you'll experience come from the ravines that route through the course and the undulating greens.

The back nine is the more challenging, spiced up by some interesting par 3s and two outstanding par 5s. Clear Creek's 11th hole goes 555 yards and involves an approach over a ravine, and No. 13 is a 584-yard monster that double-doglegs to a skinny green framed by bunkers.

Great Course for Cost

The Bunkers were not raked, could have have been due to inclimate weather a couple of days prior but the carts were off the path and there was no standing water in the bunkers, therefore you would expect them to be raked. They were hard and firm like clay. Other than the bunker conditions, the course was in great shape and for the price it is almost unbeatable! I recommend this course but wouldn't pay over $35

Four Star course for Two Star Prices

I thought the course was in excellent condition especially for the middle of August! Greens rolled well, fairways were flush, and the course is fair. It is fairly straightforward with no tricks that you have to be a lifelong member to know how to play certain holes. It was a 30 minute drive for me since I live in North Houston, but it was worth it and I will definitely be back soon! GPS in the carts is a huge plus, too!

Fantastic Conditions

Definitely the best value I've found in Houston all summer. The course was in awesome shape. The hottest time of the year hasn't taken any toll on this track. Pace of play was a tad slow but we finished with just enough daylight after teeing off around 4:00.

What a jewel

I simply love playing Clear Creek! Even in the middle of a Houston summer, the greens are well kept and the fairways play really nice. This is not an easy course by anyone's imagination. A nice plus is that the carts are equiped with GPS.

Bring Your Canteen…

We drove about 40 minutes hoping for a links style experience at a great price. Got both, including a $19 Golf Now rate so no complaints there. But unfortunately, I do have complaints.

Even though we went on a Saturday, it was in the afternoon on a triple digit day, and that combined with having the GPS on the carts I had hoped would speed he pace of play. So I was surprised when the round turned out to be a grueling 5 hr. 35 min. The marshal was essentially non-existent on both the first tee (we even started late) and the course, leaving us no recourse for the foursome in front playing the back tees without the game, while somehow evolving into a five-some on the back 9 to add to our already excruciating pace.

We did choose to play in the heat of the day (and year) but we normally have a blast as long as we are hydrated. The problem was that none of the drinking water coolers on the course had one drop of water at any stop. I do know that some courses do this ‘on accident’ to increase refreshment sales, and I have no idea if that is the case, but when you are talking 100+ degree heat someone could be seriously harmed so at best it was negligent on such a hot day. Not only should they be refilling the water for pure safety reasons, the refreshment cart (especially as your only alternative) should come around more than once per nine. The cart girl was very polite, a highlight to the day, but maybe they need to go to two carts on the busier weekends? Even when you do buy from the cart like we did, you do not know at that time the need to stock up due to the lack of drinking water up ahead. So it only helps alleviate some of the hydration problem.

I do realize that this could be a one day anomaly, certainly pace of play comes and goes on any course, but I am hopeful that this review will at least shine a spotlight on the drinking water availability provided to the players here. They have got to start taking the Texas heat more seriously than what we experienced even if management has to refill the containers themselves. Previously chalked up to cheapness, I now understand why many folks sneak in their own drinks while playing...

Course wise, it was is in good general condition, the greens were excellent and the practice chipping area was nice. But I found the layout simple and somewhat monotonous and the sand was low and compact despite the super dry conditions so it is not to my own personal taste.

In fairness, due to the length of our round I was not able to speak with anyone (beyond the cart girl) so I am not sure how aware they may be about these issues on this particular day. However, based on my round here I certainly could not recommend this course at this time.

Great slow outing

The course at $29 was a steal. We were a twosome that teed off at 9a, sunny/hot morning. The fairways and greens were in excellent shape. Course is a links setup that is somewhat forgiving. Only one problem and that was pace of play. From the first tee it seemed sluggish and by the third hole it was evident that it would be a 5+ hour round. On the third tee we noticed a fivesome holding groups up on #8. The backup continued throughout the round. A Marshall was seen several times and observed on two occasions that he drove by the problem. I like the course but slow play in hot/humid weather is not what this golfer is looking for.

EXCELLENT course to play

Clear Creek was a joy to play, somewhat to very difficult to play, when you can not stay in the fairway.....lol! The group I was with had a great time, weather was good (extremely humid) and their all electronic scorecard and GPS rangefinder on the cart was/is an excellent amenity for your fees, THANKS Clear Creek.

Great Weekend Value

Although the pace of play started out a little slow it was much better on the back. This course gets a lot of play, but stays in pretty good shape for a public course. Excellent value and very friendly staff.

One of the best conditioned golf courses southside of Houston

Have played Clear Creek for many years and it generally is always in top shape. Their greens were absolutely perfect when we played. The weather in Houston has been horrible for a couple of months so the bunkers were not perfect but they were playable. Everything was lush and green...product of having lots and lots of rain followed by sunshine. We got drenched more than once on the day we played. I had played it a couple of days before with no issues at all.
The staff is very friendly, the driving range is big, food and beverage is very good.
I recommend this course if you are looking for something convenient to downtown Houston on the southside.

A long drive to mediocrity

The fairways were in good shape but I can't say the same thing for the bunkers and greens. The bunkers looked to be washed out from all the recent rains. Most of them were eroded and full of rocks. The greens were riddled with brown patches that made putting difficult. There were good sections on each green however the pins were all located in the bad sections. I have played this course in the past when it was in much better shape. When it is in good shape it is well worth the long drive for $55.

Good course. Extremely slow pace.

Nice links course. Greens are very nice fast. Hit it past the hole and you will have a 6 footer coming back! Pace of play was slow. We had to wait til 10 min after our tee time to start. Our round took 5h 15min. With that said I would return to this course anytime. Fairways were great, if you're in the fairway you will almost always have a good lie.
