Houston National Golf Club Driving Range

Character killed by lack of care. The golf course has a lot going for it. The layout is interesting and can be a good challenge. The greens and tee boxes are well maintained. The staff are friendly, and there’s regular refreshments on offer from the cart coming around while you play. Unfortunately, the course itself is so poorly maintained that it really ruined the experience for me. Pretty much none of the bunkers seem to be in play, given how poorly cared for they are, with many not having rakes either. If your ball lands in the rough there’s a good chance you won’t find it because of the piles of grass cutting everywhere. My wife and I both lost balls within feet of the fairway because of this having seen where the ball went. The drains and sprinkler heads are overgrown too. In summary, there are many far nicer maintained courses at this price point in the area, so I’d pick one of those before coming here. The second star was because of the curses potential, and the staff, it really wasn’t good.

Spending $100+ here felt like dumping money into the water. The driveway and greens were poorly maintained, exactly as shown in past photo reviews.

Played Houston National for the first time yesterday. Greens fees were very reasonable and included lunch! Pro Shop employees were super friendly and helpful. The carts were very nice and comfortable with GPS. Only issue was parts of the course around holes 7 and 8 where I was on the cart path but the cart said I was in a restricted zone so I had to drive backwards to the 8th tee box lol. Overall the course was in great shape with just a few dry areas due to little rain this Fall. Greens were great, and challenging lol. The slope of the greens definitely made it challenging. The bar and grill was cool and the girl working there was terrific and friendly. Very positive experience and will definitely come back.

Early Tee time, on a Monday. Range balls included, so I stopped there for a quick warm-up. Solo player, so it was a fairly quick round. Fairways were nice, and greens were very well kept. Lots of undulation, so keep everything under control, and you can score pretty well. It was a dewy morning, but overall, it was a great course. Stopped in for the included lunch after the round (when you book through Houston National, not golfnow), including chips and a beer, if that's your fancy. Well worth the price of the round, all things considered.
