Sammons Golf Course

A must play, especially for the price. The course conditions are amazingly good right now. This was definitely not always the case, in terms of the conditions, but now, wow! The course superintendent has really turned that place around. A "Tip of the bill" is in order for him. The greens are rolling great, so be careful if you're above the hole. The Pro and staff are very welcoming and friendly as well. I played early, so we finished in a little over 3 hours. Give it a shot, I'm confident that you'll be pleasantly surprised.

Good use of the water on the course. Kind of hard to know where the next hole was in a couple of places, Signage would have helped. Staff was friendly and the cost was great. We will be back.

I got a tee time at 1045 of golf now for 20 bucks with my coupon. Greens rolled really smooth. Fairway was a little over grown. A lot of rain recently, which made for some wet spots. Other than that course play well. It’s an easy course and good for beginners.

Pace was quite slow Sunday, but often is when friends and family get to the course. Played with : very good golfers—behind a 5-some. Had to wait on each hole. Impatient guys behind us almost hit a young man in my group as he was about to putt! Only thing worse that waiting to hit off each tee box is to get hit into by players behind you! We dropped out after 9. Course in nice shape. Greens good overall.

It felt like there was more water than land. Very little room for error. Many water hazards were hidden. Others very unforgiving. No directions to tees. Got lost twice and had to ask how to find the next hole. It was my first time there. I guess if you played it regularly you would know how to find the tees and avoid the hazards. Take water. There is none on the course. No ball washers on the carts. I only played 7 holes because I was traveling without my golf and had nothing but new golf balls that tired of losing. If I had a bag full of old balls it might have been a fun challenge. As it was, it was my golf experience ever.

The course is one that is difficult the first time you play it which definitely makes it a challenge. It is not a course you can just grip it and rip it.

Pace of play is always bad at this course and no one enforces the pace two groups in front of us joined up to create a sevens one for the last 4 holes. The tee boxes are so hard you can’t put a tee in the ground. Don’t forget to aerate the tee boxes. Greens are in pretty good shape except for people not repairing ball marks.

Course is in decent shape for the price point. Playing around the lake is fun and some sort of creek or water feature is in play on 12 of the 18 holes, which makes for some interesting decisions having to be made throughout the round. The pace of play here is horrendous. Don’t expect your round to ever be less than 4 hours. Due to many tees, greens, and fairways being so close to each other, there are several backup spots that are almost unavoidable. You will wait on several tee boxes. The food and staff are great. Overall average course. If pace of play improved, I would bump it to 4 stars because it’s great value for the price.

Where do the “fairways” end and rough begins? Wouldn’t know since it all looked like rough. Terrible grounds keeping. Tee boxes were even worse. The greens were decent is about the only good thing about the course. First and last time playing there.

Had a great time with my crew ,it was a over cast loved it . I shot a 83 getting better

We have been playing Sammons on vacation for over 30 year. The course layout is unique with a large body of water and a rail line that runs through the course. For April the greens and course were in good shape despite a little sogginess from a recent Texas downpour. Friendly staff and well appointed club house. Not enough affordable public courses like Sammons.

The morning Marshall was a bit gruff, but the rest of the staff was very nice. The course was in great shape, definitely a challenging course.
