About
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.

Slow Slow
At one point it was an hour to play 4 holes. The only reason it went faster is because I teamed up with some nice folks playing ahead of me. Not 1 time did the Marshall come by and check pace of play. I normally play Meadowbrook farms and might just go back to playing there. When I asked for a rain check because I was 2.5 hours into 9 holes and when I drove to the 10th tee, there were 5 guys waiting on the tee box and another 2 carts in the middle of the fairway, I was told a 6 hour round wasn’t uncommon on a public course. I didn’t want to hang around and see what that was like.
Granted, I could have had a free round out or two out here but I didn’t want to use that card as I wanted to be a paying customer and support a local business and a great course that had good reviews. This just might not be the course for me. Greens were in good shape as were the fairways and bunkers. Just didn’t like the pace of play at all.
New owner may ruin this course
We had an 11:54 tee time. Did not tee off until 1:00. Two tournaments, which we were not told about. Gps has been taken out of carts, no ball washers. And of course the price increased. I have played this course for years. This might be my last time.
Good Day for Golf
Another good day at Cinco Ranch. Too bad I couldn't live up to it. Too many penalty strokes. Course was in good condition and it has a great layout. Some holes are very challenging for me but probably not that difficult for a skilled golfer. Very good place to play. Only downside is pace of play was a little slow on the front 9.
Good GC in good location
This is very good GC. Week days are always good. busy in weekends.
Was good
The course was in good shape bunker I was in needed more sand club bottomed out and bounced into the ball. Caused a poor shot but that was the only issue I had. The rest was all good. Will play there again soon.
Roy Orbison round
It was alright, for awhile. Play slowed to a crawl on 15. We decided to skip until we found an opening. Turns out 5 groups were backed up behind a slow foursome on the 17th tee. 18th was wide open, finished at sunset. Others could not.
Defective Cart
The cart that I got didn't have the windshield nor the GPS. I called asking for a replacement and never got it. The price of a great-wor+king condition cart is included/
If you love slow play then this is for you.
A total lack of marshalling means that this golf course comes to a. complete crawl as beginners. hack their way around, having to make every 3 inch putt. If you like an average 4 hour round then don't bother going here, it will take nearer 4 3/4 hours. We didn't see one Marshall throughout the whole time and yet the starter process was officious in the extreme.
Won't be going back there in a. hurry, in fact nothing happens there in a. hurry.
Great Course
The course was in great shape. Staff was friendly. The diner was slow about bringing our food out to us.Not crowded ,but almost 45 mins for chicken wings.Other than that , we really enjoyed the exprience
Greens are in good shape. Leaking sprinkler is an issue around many of the greens. The last mowing of the year fairways were cut very short creating bald spots in some areas. Pace of play was very slow. Took over 5 hours.
Bumped because of tourney
Arrived early for our 3:12pm tee time. Was informed we had been bumped due to a tournament in progress. Computer error at the course had allowed us to reserve and pay for tee times that couldn't be honored today. The staff was very apologetic and then the their meaning of hospitality came to the forefront. They offered us an additional replacement round on top of the 3 we had already paid for. We had a year to redeem those free rounds plus they threw in range balls to use today in lieu of our round. We spent hours on the range practicing in anticipation of our future replacement rounds. Mistakes happen but the way this was handled on their part, speaks volumes about the importance they place on service. They value their patrons. They gave us reasons to return to this course beyond the free rounds forthcoming. We will definitely be back and we will share this level of service with all our friends. Thanks again for your hospitality!!
S. L. O. W!
5+ hours? I don't agree with allowing 5-somes on the weekends during peek hours, especially high handicap players. Made the round miserable! Counted 7 groups on 2 holes. The marshall did nothing to speed up play, and the starter kept packing em In! We were 25 minutes behind pace when we teed up on #2. Seriously considered quitting, but football sucks right now, so what the he'll. Beer was cold! Really nice greens. It's a shame that they sucked the fun right out of it!
