Wildwood Golf Course
About
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.

Great course. Incredible experience.
Wow what a hidden gem. Can't believe I am just now finding this place. A bit of a drive from Pasadena but the reviews were so good thought we'd give it a try. Everyone was right. The course is in great shape. While most other courses are struggling to keep their greens in shape during the drought Wildwood greens were beautiful. Overall the course was lush and green. The staff was friendly and helpful when one of our group canceled last minute. Like I said a bit of a drive but absolutely worth it to play this kind of course at these rates. Definitely looking forward to our next visit which will be very soon.
Excellent track
