About

Holes 18
Type Semi-Private/Resort
Par 72
Length 6696 yards
Slope 121
Rating 71.9

Wildwood was designed in 1966 by Leon Howard, who was able to use this impressive terrain near the Big Thicket National Preserve to his advantage as he turned this par 71, 6,696-yard layout into the centerpiece of a resort community. His design features two large lakes that come into play on about half the holes, as well as wide fairways and good-sized, mounded greens.

Hackers can enjoy themselves at Wildwood because it takes unusually bad tee shots to get into trouble here. Each nine ends with an impressive hole. The front nine's ender is only a 455-yard par 5, but has a creek cutting across the fairway around 260 yards from the tee. No. 18 involves carrying a drainage ditch off the tee, then plays uphill into a dogleg fairway that is lined by trees.

In between, No. 12 presents some problems because it plays 221 yards and requires a carry over a creek.

Getting there : From Hwy. 69 south, turn right on Button Willow Dr. The course is on the right side of the street.

Good conditions

I had a 12:10 tee time, they let me go off early. Pace of play was good. I was a single, had two foursomes ahead of me. One let me play through, the other group, well, I skipped them after a couple of holes.

Ok, course was good considering the time of year. Greens were thin but good on the back, grainy on the front. I will say that they are focused on course conditions and are doing the right stuff. A month from now, it'll be stellar.

Village mills gc

Great little course out in the sticks. Great staff. Course and greens in great shape. Perfect no but pretty good, a little slow. The two nines are different feel. White tees might be a little short. It challenging. Lots of hidden obstacles if first time playing. You have to make a few layup decisions. Golf shaped shots a must. Not bad not bad for the drive

Bad greens

For several years they have had problems with their greens and even closed the front 9 for an extended period to try and repair them. It was nice for a while, but looks like they are losing the front greens again, back greens are not as bad, but not great either. The front greens have a lot of bare areas. The cost on the weekend is $47 and no senior rates. It is overpriced considering the shape of the greens.
