Classic pine and oak trees adorn this beautiful course. Cut through scenic wetlands, this course offers a great diversity of play. Despite its abundance of trees and lakes, of which nine come into play on the course, fairway play is adequately open. The greens are ample, firm and fast. Run-up shots are plentiful with no forced carries. The course's signature hole is #13, a 458-yard, par 4, which plays out from a plethora of 100-year-old live oaks. The green is well-protected by bunkers, with a large lake to the rear.

| Not only is the the course great to golf on, the staff is friendly and the cook, Wilson, makes a mean philly cheesteak sandwich. |

 Upscale heading Downscale, Jan 26, 2004 |

from Houston, Texas |
| This course has so much potential. As it stands it is still one of the best courses in Houston for one thing and one thing only: Greens. It is just unfortunate that it has changed management hands several times in the last few years. In the process, each regime has focused on different things. Mostly cutting back on what the previous management did. No overseeding fairways in winter, Sand bunkers that qualify as gumbo bunkers, No restrooms on course, carts that badly need replacement. To compete with area course price points, they have dropped their average rates. What this means is more course play with less revenue. Couple this with the fact that there is less maintenance staff and no one fills in divots. Looks like a bombing campaign afterphoto on some fairways. The claim to fame is "Best greens in Houston". While this may still be true, the overall package is declining. I am concerned that even the greens may suffer as a consequence of the extra play and reduced maintenance. They used to put balls out on the range, but no more. They have some funky bag system where you lug these large red bags to the range with you. It could be so much better. Aesthetics are an afterthought. Actually, no one is thinking of aesthetics at all. I think they just keep thinking they can coast on the fumes of the reputation of their greens. Their slogan when the club opened 6 years ago was "Country Club for a day". An updated version would be more like "Mcgolf with your redneck buddies for a day". |
