Margaritaville Lake Resort, Lake Conroe

As in Tee box, fairways, bunkers, cart paths, and greens in need of some major attention. Is a fun layout and perfect for beginners but definitely is not resort quality golf. If you don’t care about scoring it is a bare minimum (as in bare or minimum grass) to play on.

Played late afternoon and course was not that busy. They were getting prepared to host a Texas UIL High School Golf Regional tournament. I've been to this resort several times through different ownership but never played course. The course is tight just like most reviewers say. Water can come into play. The front 9 greens were slower than back 9. Greens could use some improvement but I have played around the Houston area and can say this for other courses as well. I didn't use my driver at all. 2-Driving Iron or 5-Hybrid on most tee shots.

Course is in great shape. Challenging but fair. Staff very friendly.

We have been looking for a home course since moving from Cypress where there are a number of nice public courses. The layout is not to bad and the course is challenging for novices such as myself. I will be playing this course more often. Good value, especially during the twilight hours.

Greens are pock marked and unplayable.

Fairways have leaves everywhere.

With a little extra TLC this could be a good course

The layout of this course is the only slightly positive thing. The maintenance is nonexistent. Greens are legit the worst I have seen in years. There is mud and leaves everywhere. They must have forgotten about the golf when they pumped all that Jimmy Buffett money into the resort. It’s not worth playing for any price.

The layout makes the course fun to play. However, the fairways where covered in leaves and pine needles. In was December so I'll give them that, but no maintenance had been done whatsoever to remove debris from the fairways or greens. The coverage was pretty thin as well so we played pick, clean and place all day.

This was our first time playing at Margaritaville. We enjoyed the course and are looking forward to playing again in the Spring.

Improved from start of year

Work in progress

More time no more freeze

Front nine is narrow and unforgiving. Back nine let’s you have fun. Course is in the winter condition with leaves and wet fairways. Hard to maintain in these conditions.

The staff is unbelievably friendly. And it doesn’t matter who’s there. Truly a great experience. Too bad the front nine is not as friendly.

Joke on the side I would recommend this golf course to all my friends.

Keep up the great job.

Thx
