Pearland Golf Club
About
Pearland Golf Club opened in 1982 after Jay Riviere was brought in to build the course as the centerpiece of a residential development for senior citizens. Mike Hoelzer rolled through in the late 1990s for a redesign on this fairly basic 18-hole golf course. The short design features generous fairways and prominent bunkering around the undulating greens. Lakes and ponds have been added over the years and impact play on most holes. Trees have also been added over the years to spice up the flat, prairie-like course.
No. 9 is one of the toughest holes, a 440-yard par 4 that doglegs and has water. No. 16 is considered Pearland's signature -- a 554-yard par 5 that also doglegs and has water in play.

Fairways and greens
Fairways were in decent conditions but were super bumpy to drive on.
The greens were absolutely in horrible condition!
To play a nice course and not pay high fees this is your course.
This course has a great layout and can be challanging. The fairways provide nice lies but can be a little bumpy. This course offers a lot of bang for the buck. To play a nice course and not pay high fees this is your course.
Good course for the money
I was able to get a late weekend Tee-time for $20 and easily got in 18 holes before it got too dark. Not a lot of people out there but probably because it was Sunday after 5:00. That being said, I believe it is semi-private so I don't think a lot of people out there are aware that tee-times are available to the public after noon. I have played it twice before in scrambles but remembered that placement on certain holes was imperative. The course has a lot of small hills and moguls in the fairway which makes it difficult to get a flat lie. The houses surrounding the course come into play quite often and there is plenty of water, sand, and OB to contend with. The overall condition of the course was great with the exception of a handful of greens. They had some kind of fungus that the greens keeper was clearly trying to get a handle on but in the meantime there are several patches that were missing grass and/or filled with sand. I actually had a chip that came to a dead stop as soon as it hit the green because of a big patch of sand that I didn't notice. The rest of the greens were very soft and receptive, yet had decent speed with regards to putting. Will be playing there as often as possible to "figure out the course" since I had trouble keeping the ball in play! OB surrounds most of the holes due to the backyards of the homes. So, for $20 and a quick pace it is definitely worth it for me to continue to give the course some play.
Greens are are terrible condition. Two are unplayable.
The course is really dry, which is expexted due to the lack of rain in the region. The greens on the front 9 are terrible. Back nine is in better condition.
I will play the courese again this Fall. I like the layout.
Wouldn't play again, even for $20 buck a round
Extremely dry fairways and greens. Mostly hardpan lies expecially outside the center cut of the fairway. Several greens were oversanded, dry and even void of grass in several areas. Tee boxes were uneven and very tough to find an even spot or where you didnt have at least one foot in a hole. Only thing more uneven than the tee boxes where the fairways. I've seen smaller moguls at ski resorts. The combination of hardpan and eneveness made these the worst fairways I've played in years. Cartpaths are just as bad. Every path was uneven and full of potholes or broken concrete. Clubhouse is dingy and there was no staff readily available. For a private course built in the mid eighties it sure looked like a forgotten cluhouse built in the fifties.When you do locate someone, they are friendly though. There is only ten or so slots at the practice tees and even though they seem to rotate tee locations, the ones open that day where very worn and hard. Throughout the round, I kept having the feeling that this course was cramped into the neighborhood and not designed then homes added. For 5 bucks more stick to Clear Creek Golf Course adjacent to this one. Better condition, more challenging and doesnt appear like its a forgotten muni.
greens need work
but when they get fixed the rest of the course is fun and chaallenging. only thing did not like is it the only course that when you drive on any fairway it is so bumby to drive
Great value for the price...
The fairways are in wonderful condition, the rough was fair and playable. The tee boxes are pretty level and in good condition. Most of the bunkers had plenty of sand and were consistent. The only bad thing about the course was the greens. They are patchy, rough and inconsistent. With that said, the course is definitely on my replay list as the good certainly outweighs the little bit of bad.
Nice mid level course in all aspects. Service was friendly and the Marshall was helpful.
Course play nice well taken care of. kinda right at points with homes on each side.Driving range bordered street making it hard to have confidence while warming up.
Great price. Decent course. Greens need love.
$20 for 18 holes is a deal you cannot pass up. Fairways and tee boxes were in good shape. Nice cold water at many of the holes. The only negative was that several of the greens needed some maintenance and love. They had some dry patches that made the ball bounce when putting.
Good value for the $ I paid but only fair conditions. Short course with very bumpy fairways and some greens are in need of repair.
Staff was very friendly and informative. Course was in fair shape but some of the greens were in need of repair. Tight fairways and short holes. Most uneven/bumpiest fairways I've ever played. A drive down the middle of the fairway might end up in the water because of bumps. No hole diagram on the scorecard to let you know if there were water hazards ahead. Three stars...
Lots of Water
The fairways need smoothing out. The course is tight with lots
water that you can not see when making your shot. Best to play with someone that knows the course. Some of the greens could use a little work in spots. All in all it's a good course for the money. I will play it again.
Great potential
The course does have some odd layouts and the greens need a little more attention, but overall it is a decent course.
Good course but needs greens need more attention.
Our tee time started at 1pm. and the concessions people only came around once. It was very hot. The putting greens need a lot of work. There were spots that didn't even have grass. Great course but needs work.
Good course
Good course. Requires little attention but over all good value for money. Some bald patches on fairways that need attention.
greens in bad shape
Nice course average condition but green are terrible right now.
Fareway is fine, green condition is very poor.
Fareway is fine, green condition is very poor.
Too many people was pkaying and delayed playing
Not quite ready for prime time....
On the plus side, it is a great (and occassionally challanging) track tucked in a quite neighborhood. The club house/pro shop is adequate and food/drink prices are reasonable. The greens are well laid out and carefully protected, requiring a reasonably good approach shot. The course is very scenic.
On the other side...the greens are in really bad shape needing a full over-haul and probably replacement. Very little grass actually on them. Putted through sand on one hole.
Fairways were greener, mostly. There is a weird undulation about them that we couldn't figure out if it was intentional or something has heaved/fallen over the years. It was like playing on top of a waffle.
Water guards many approaches and runs down the length of several holes. With the strange fairways not being flat, rolling into one wasn't an issue.
Lastly, there is functional, but small, driving range by the clubhouse.
They are obviously working on the conditions, there are new sprinkler heads and mains being installed in several places.
Give it some time and more money, this may be a great little course.
Do not pay over $20
This front nine greens were in desperate need of water, the fairways were in need of some maintenance. All in all if it wasn't a beautiful day, I would not of played the whole course. I dont think I had a flat lie on any of the 18 tee boxes.
Making a comeback!
A month or so ago, the greens were terrible. They still aren't good but they are starting to fill in and with the rain we just had, hopefully they will continue to improve. Nice challenging course with several doglegs that will test you. Water placed just right on many holes that will make you think about your club.
