Reader Ratings / Reviews
- Best greens in city... a real treat to play and superb greens! Wish it were closer...The bent-grass greens are the best thing about the course.....the fairways and tee box areas are average. The bunkers / sandtraps are extremely poor! Nut grass growing on the 2nd cut is pretty bad, as well!
Practice area and putting green is excellent! This is a very good lay-out but is in need of someone to take MUCH better care of the course!Great club with a true Texas, laid back atmosphere. Greens are second to none, service is fantastics and the practice facilities are well above average.
The golf experience is fair but you will be punished for bad shots. The rough can be difficult and traps are well placed and some are deep. There are many risk / reward holes and there each and every hole on this golf course is well done and fair to golfers of all abilities.
The greens hold from any distance with a crisply struck shot.
My kids love the place and we rarely play anywhere else.
