Outstanding!

The layout is challenging, with tight fairways, greens protected by bunkers, and some water. Greens rolled true, and were in great condition...very impressed with this course, and with the hot deal from GolfNow a great value! Highly recommend...staff was great as well. Let me go off solo, played 18 in 2 1/2 hours. Will be back soon!

Need a marshall

The course is in great condition. Unfortunately no one is on the course to keep players moving. The threesome in front of us had no etiquette, period. From driving on the par 3's to the loud music from their cart. We (a twosome) caught them on the first par 3. They each hit several tee shots on each hole and spent several minutes driving around looking for the balls in the woods. It was a shame too, because otherwise it would have been a great outing.

The course is great to play until you get to the green. Passionate golfers beware: these poor green conditions will ruin your round.

Challenging course

Although this course is a resort course, it is quite challenging and I’m a 6 handicapper. We played from White tees (6500 yds) and it has 6 Par 4s over 400 yds.The course has Tree lined fairways requiring fairly accurate drives as well as fast and well guarded greens make this course worth playing.

What a deal!!!

Got the “Hot Deal of The Day”.

Due to a typo I got the Deal of a Lifetime!

Recent rainy days made the course still very damp. I probably would have still ruled cart path only if it was my decision. Very tight fairways made driving an all day challenge. Greens were very frustrating to read, nothing seemed to break. Plenty of water holes and the bunkers are well maintained.

Played the white tee’s, and I’m glad we did! I’m not a “long ball hitter”, (average 230-260), almost all the par 4’s left me still 200 yards out.

Had a great time overall. Would not recommend playing if your trying to set a personal record. (Smiley Face)

The more I play this course, the more I like it

Admittedly, when this course was simply known as Del Lago, I didn't care for it much. But when Jeff Blume did a redesign a few years ago, I gained a new appreciation for the routing and uniqueness of the holes, now that balls don't roll forever on hard pan into the out-of-bounds areas. The improvements included new bunkers and greens complexes, giving the course a much better look overall and making it more playable. What it still is, though, is fairly difficult. Even from the white tees, some of the par fours are fairly long and difficult, water comes into play on at least a third of the holes, and the doglegs make driving difficult. Still, overall, it's a very enjoyable track, with lots of memorable and interesting holes. (My only complaint: the cart paths are terrible, and really need to be redone)

Worth the drive!

This course is about 45 minutes from North Houston, but I would recommend giving La Torretta a try. Course conditions were above average and the pace of play was excellent for a Wednesday afternoon. Staff were accommodating and helpful. I will play here again.

Condition

Great course, it’s my opinion that it’s the best kept public course within a 20 mile radius of Conroe. At 78 the course is a little long for me, but the great condition of this course makes up for it. I played off the yellow T’s.

Clean fairways

Well kept course. Fairways were clean. Greens in good shape. A little slow but to be expected on a weekend. No beverage cart which is never a good thing during hot summer months.
