Walden on Lake Houston Golf & Country Club
About
Patterned after the successful Robert Von Hagge/Bruce Devlin-designed Walden on Lake Conroe, this course opened in 1982 and immediately became known for its numerous bunkers and lakes. Considered a shotmaker's course, this layout features over 100 bunkers and requires precise play throughout.
Holes of note are the intimidating opening hole-a long, bending par 4 with a lake guarding the right side. Beware of the pin placement on this multi-tiered green. No. 8 is a 429-yard par 4 that requires a long drive and perfect approach because of the channel that guards the tiny, bunker-loaded green. On the back No. 14 is the best, dominated by a large lake in the fairway. At 444 yards it also requires a challengingly long approach into a small green.
Getting there : From U.S. Hwy. 59 north, take the FM 1960 exit and go east for 8 miles to the course. The clubhouse is on the right side of the road.

Not in good shape
Played this course today for the first time in 25yrs and I was very disappointed. I haven’t been able to play here because this used to be a private club. Now I can see why they are offering tee times on GN because they have lost the course and possibly members. . The tee boxes had lots of bare spots as well as the fairways. The only good thing about today’s round was the greens even though they were super slow. I won’t be coming back to the course because it’s not even worth $50 much less the $69 that the charge. Do yourself a favor and go play Tour 18 instead at 2pm you’ll be better off.
It was ok
Course pace was slow, greens were in good shape. A lot of homes along the course that can be hit. It was ok for the price
Glad I came back!
I used to play this course all the time years ago and it was getting in bad shape. It’s been recently bought and the new owners have done a phenomenal job on bringing it back to its glory days. Course was tough, bring lots of balls, and the staff was super friendly. Ended up staying for a round or two of beers and food. The food was fantastic! All around great day, and my expectations were low, so I was very impressed.
