Golf Club at Cinco Ranch
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.

Poor Value
The course layout is fine. Average neighborhood course. The condition of the course is poor/fair overall. The tee boxes are in bad shape. The fairways hit and miss. Some are ok some are not in great shape. The greens were in decent shape and rolled pretty well. The problem is the price, this is NOT a $100 course. It's not an $80 course. Not on it's best day. There are way too many courses in the area that are better and much cheaper. (Gus, bay forest, Cypresswood...etc). Even locally, Meadowbrook is a much better course for the same $. If you can find a hot deal for $50 ok, but any more than that is a big rip-off. You can do much better around Houston even at $50. I have played 5 courses over the last month that were better and cheaper. Quail valley, Gus, Pearland golf club, Cypresswood Cypress, and Cypress lakes. JS!

Decent Track
The course layout was nice. Not an extremely challenging course pretty open and you still have shot on miss hits. For $100 I would expect a better course. Every fairway had major dead patches in it and several boxes you could barely get a tee in the ground. In my opinion it’s a $60 dollar course. I would not go back for this price.
Hi Myslas01, we wish your experience could have been better, but appreciate you taking the time to share your feedback. It’s important for us know how we can better serve our customers and your comments will be shared with the team.
Fair course but overpriced.
The course was in better than average condition for a Houston golf course open to public play. The greens were slow because the staff has to heavily water them to save them from the 2023 heat wave. That is understandable. But, a Carlton Gibson course is not a Tier 1 golf course. At $73.00 per player it was overpriced.
Thanks for reviewing us. Your feedback is appreciated and we take it to heart. We are always looking for ways to increase customer satisfaction and will pass your comments along to the team.

First time playing the course
Greens and fairways where in good shape. However the sand traps were awful. Some had water in them, others had small rocks that would damage your club and some had rocks all around the top of the bunkers no sand at all. Staff were friendly. Golf carts are all like 20yr old need serious updating.
Thank you for the review. We hope to see you again soon!
We’re thrilled to see you had a positive experience. See you again soon.
Pace of play
There was a group of 4 playing a scramble or best ball whatever you want to call it. No one in front of them. Took my group of 4 me and 3 others. 5 hours to play 18. Our tee time was 8:20 am. They wouldn’t let us pass. And they took their sweet ol dandy time. Also could barley hit a ball off the tee box
We appreciate the review. Thanks for taking the time. We will share this with the team.
Thanks so much for rating us. We look forward to seeing you again soon.
