Awesome course

What a day... Great course and layout. Staff was excellent. I will play there again. Better shape than where I usually play and a better layout. Avoid the trap on 18.

Pleasant experience

Upon arrival at the pro shop everyone was friendly and very helpful with getting us going. Pro asked if we had played the course before (we had, but many years ago) then proceeded to suggest the various tees that were available and most suitable for our handicaps. We were about 15 minutes early for our tee time, but since no one was on the 1st tee, he told us go when ready. The tees and fairways were in very good shape, especially for this time of the year. Greens and traps were in good condition and greens putted fairly fast and true. The layout is somewhat tight, but plays fair. Pace of play was great ( not even once held up - we teed off at 12:30). Paths could use some work. The rock landscape was a very nice addition to the coure since I last played. Grill people were great and the beer was Cold! Keep up the good work guys!

Came to play golf, got what I wanted and pleasantly surprised by the conditions given the time of year

Played as a single on a Saturday afternoon and did not need anything but a course in good conditions. Tee boxes, greens and fairways in good shape. Certainly pleasantly surprised given the rate and time of year.

Pace of play was good given the circumstances, although it certainly felt clogged on the second nine (three flights on multiple par 4s).

Nice course

The course was in great shape. Greens were quick. Fairways were fantastic and the bunkers were playable. The course has a lot of dog legs and you have to hit fairways. If you miss a fairway, you are going to have a ton of tree trouble.

Worth the Drive

I was a long drive but worth it. Course was in great shape for the fall. Excellent layout with tight fairways , trees, traps and water. Greens were also in excellent shape. Food choice and service was fine but could be expanded to fit expectations with course

Nice Layout

The course has several interestingly laid out holes. It has lots of trees and is tight but not brutal. I look forward to playing it again.

quick round

I find the course plays a bit longer than the card says. Would like it better if there were a set of tees at about 6000 yrds. Bunkers and greens in great shape.

La Toretta revisited...again

This course is consistently among the best conditioned course in greater Houston area. The fairways are fairly plush, sand traps are full & the greens are always in stellar shape. They are fast as well as very difficult to read. I've read on here that

the course is too difficult for its locale. I will make the scenic drive down FM 149 to this course in a heartbeat. A talented clubhouse as well.

Tight course greens in excellent condition

The course is tight and sometimes too severely in my opinion. Number 9 hole has a chute with a fairway that is only 25 yards wide but then trees overhang the fairway reducing the slot to about 12 yards. If I was playing in the PGA maybe but for weekend golfers this was ridiculous!! I told staff at the turn and they said they already trimmed twice which tells me the greens keepers would rather be proud of the course than having average people play it. I queried my group and they all feel that if u are going to drive over an hour it should be a fun track and they would rather play a track that average golfers can play and have fun!! Course is in great condition just too severe for weekend duffers!!

Great time!

This was an exceedingly great value. The course is very nice, extremely well-maintained. It was a little hot, but bearable. They will loan you coolers when you buy drinks there, and that helps a great deal. Even the food was reasonably priced. Pace of play was great, and we took the back way Pace of play was great, and we took the back way to The course, so even though it's just a little bit further than some of you might consider, the drive was very nice.

Highly recommended
