Rating 73.8

Carlton Gipson designed the Golf Club At Cinco Ranch in the early 1990s. It's a long golf course that features an ocean of water impacting play on 16 of 18 holes. For the most part, the holes are straight and open, with minimal trees framing the paths to the greens. The greens are unique because of the unusually shaped bunkers that create very different short game challenges from what one normally finds. One of the best holes is no. 4, a 557-yard par 5 that features an approach shot over water into an elevated green. In addition to the water, the green is fronted by a bunker that is at least 10 feet below the hole. This requires a phenomenal, blind bunker shot for an up-and-down.

First Time Playing

First time

First time playing course. Reviews had been mostly positive. I did have to share a cart for the first time ever. The positive of this was being paired with someone who plays course weekly. This really helped being a first time player at course to have an unofficial caddy with course knowledge. Overall, course was in good shape. Greens were mostly good with exception of #9 which had some bare spots on water side. Tee boxes needed work and had a lot of bare spots on white tees. Lots and lots of bunkers! Course has a links-feel with water, trees and bunkers coming into play. A fair course overall. Although it's a distance to get to course, it's worth playing again in the future.

great course

Great course but the pace of play was slow. I came for twilight, and there was a back up on the carts due to a tournament of some kind. So it really log jammed the final 5 or so tee times. Didn't get to finish as a result.. maybe it was an isolated incident?

Alright for 50 or less

A couple of memorable holes.

Course needs renovation and better greens/conditions to charge the rates they want during prime times.

If you can get a decent twilight deal, go for it. It’s not a bad track for a chill evening round after work. Also weird though that you can’t post to GHIN from this course.

Great day at Cinco

Always a fun day at Cinco Ranch. If you've never played it, the course and prove to be challenging. Pays to play with at least one person that can keep you out of trouble. For the money, it's a great value. Greens roll pretty true, layouts are good and there are a number of risk vs reward shots that keeps you coming back. I'd recommend it.

Good Course Needs Better Upkeep

It’s a good course. Kind of simple but no so simple it’s boring. They course it a little beat up but not the worst. The only thing I complain about is how we were told we were the last Tee time but kept having one person players showing up behind pressuring the rate of play.
