El Dorado at Quail Valley Golf Course

La Quinta is closed till May so El Dorado is showing signs of being overplayed in the greens. Front 9 greens were wet and had very little grass on them, making it pretty difficult to putt. But this challenging course is fun to play, just a bit overpriced for what you’re getting right now.

After serious rain, the course dried out well enough to play even though the bunkers were small lakes. the greens were in very good shape.

This place is awesome. I love it and it’s my favorite course to play. Easy to walk. Lots of benches, water, and restrooms. Layout is fantastic. Greens are usually really good. Although lately the amount of pitch marks have been ridiculous. People need to repair their pitch marks. There’s a few fairways that have a dirt spot like a fungus or something killed the grass in a small part of the fair way. But that’s really my only complaint. I absolutely love this course.

I booked a reservation on Golf Now with a cart included on hot deal. When I arrived they charged me 40.00 for a cart when I showed them it had cart included on the app. Also they have a habit of forcing you to play in others groups. We had a twosome but they forced us to pair up with another twosome eventhough the course wasn't busy. It took us longer to play. Just not a good experience this time around. Wouldn't recommend it.

Like the course. Got a good deal on Golf Now, BUT the guy at the front desk tried to charge me for a cart! I showed the receipt to him. He did that to another guy while I was checking in. Bring the receipt! Staff was terrible

You can always count on El Dorado to be in good shape. It’s a challenging course no doubt. The other 18- La Quinta is being renovated and I can’t wait to play it. As well, their restaurant looks on track to be open by summer 2026. I highly recommend this course especially to locals.

The course offer it all. The layout is fun and calls for course management.

Course has turned around huge and still improving! They are redoing la Quinta. El Dorado is an amazing shape right now.

The course is in great shape would definitely recommend playing this course

Stopped in for a work outing and called ahead to reserve a tee time along with three rental sets. Upon arrival, we discovered there was barely one rental set available. When I asked for a driver, the head pro, Terry Strickland, seemed visibly agitated by the request.

It turned out there was only one full rental set available, and while Terry did offer a small discount on that set, his attitude made the interaction unpleasant. When I asked if they could offer a discount on our rounds to make up for the issue, that request was denied.

Overall, this was a disappointing experience, and unfortunately, I would not recommend this course. The lack of preparation and poor customer service—especially from the head pro—made this the most unpleasant experience I’ve ever had at a golf club.

I would suggest thy evaluate the head pros ability to deal with guests.

Quail Valley- El Dorado is in excellent condition. We played after a recent rainstorm so the bunkers were unplayable but normally they are fairly well maintained. The staff is always courteous. Driving range is okay (mats only). Nice practice green and chipping area with bunker. Overall one of the best values in the Houston area.

Conditions were great. Pace of play was very slow because of the two players in front of us ignoring the rules and courtesy. Just made the best of it with their clown show.
