Moody Gardens

It’s been a long time since I played a course that was in this great of shape. The fairways were lush and the greens were like expensive carpet and rolled true.

Love this course. It’s in great shape- also love the layout and the staff. But with the recent hurricane coming through, the mosquito infestation is seriously out of control. The round today was absolutely unplayable given this - mosquito spray stood no chance at keeping these little monsters off of any of the foursome I played with. Quit after 9 as a result, which took quite a bit of resolve to even do that.

I’ve been here several times in the past and have noticed the bugs, but not quite as bad as this. No ideas on fixing - but the current infestation is untenable. Tee time was 6:50am, so perhaps an afternoon time with more heat and wind could help. This course is a must play, but something has to be done about the bugs.

I played that recently while on vacation in Galveston. I saw other reports saying that the course was in perfect condition, and I found that a bit hard to believe. However, in being there, the course was in fact in perfect condition. The greens are a bit slower than, some players may prefer, but there was not a single instant, where you could point to lack of maintenance or upkeep on the course. The one complaint I do have, is that myself and another decent player were paired with a couple who was averaging roughly 7 strokes per hole. Backed up all of the groups behind us, and we had to endure this all day long. I’m not sure what other option the course has, but when someone books a twosome, and then gets paired with two seniors, who both are playing from separate tees… it makes for a very long round, but otherwise could’ve been ben very quick. Given our early morning tee time. Otherwise, everyone was very friendly, it’s me to watch all of the helicopters coming and going to the oil rigs, and all of the other unique air traffic to the nearby airport. The course does have roughly 8 to 10 shots where where you should aim is unclear. But other than that, it’s mostly straight… And straightforward.

Course is in great shape, greens are very smooth and consistent and the marshal’s make sure a good pace of play is maintained

This Might have been the worst pace of play I’ve ever encountered during a weekday. The course was in good shape, but I wouldn’t recommend this to anyone.

The fairways and greens were wonderful. The mosquitoes are horrible and so was the staff. Even though we didn't have anyone waiting behind us, we were constantly being pushed to play faster. We were only given 5 minutes to get drinks and snacks at the turn, but no one was there to wait on us. For $105 a round, I expect to be treated better. I will NEVER play this course again!!!

This was my first time playing this tough layout course. A lot of water. I've heard it can be very windy, but it wasn't on the day we played. The staff in the pro shop was very friendly. The course itself was in perfect conditions. Some of the bunkers had a little water from recent rains. The only downside was the mosquitoes. Like many of the courses in the Houston area, they were out in force, especially near the rough and bushes. Bring the strongest repellant you can find and you'll be OK. I'll definitely be back.

Fairways and greens were in great shape. Fun course with some challenging holes. Will definitely play here again.

Love playing here every time I come to Galviston . The fairways are perfect and so are the greens. Bring bug spray, the mosquitos are crazy!

The course was amazing and we got the Hot Deal for 1/2 off. The starter warned us before the round about the mosquitoes and he wasn’t lying but we had spray in our bags already. Don’t hesitate to play this course

Greens and fairways were in great condition. Wind switched directions during the round, which caused me to really think about the right club to hit and avoid water. Number 18 was challenging but fun.
