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 a round at Houston National April 8, 2026. Green Fees are too high given the poor maintenance of the course. Extremely disappointed with the maintenance of the course - sandtraps not racked (should be fluffy, not hard and flat), too many cart-trampled paths onto the fairways. Greens were in pretty good condition. Fairways need lots of work. Play flowed well. My opinion is that the fees do not match the quality of the course. Staff was friendly and carts are nice.

I had a really disappointing experience at Houston National Golf Club and won’t be returning. When we checked in, an older male employee was completely rude and frankly ridiculous. He tried to charge us again even though we had already paid through GolfNow. We even showed him our receipt on GolfNow to confirm the payment, but instead of resolving the issue, he got upset and started raising his voice. He told us we weren’t allowed to get lunch, ordered us out of the clubhouse, and even said we didn’t belong there. The way he spoke to us and treated us felt like profiling, on top of acting like we didn’t know what we were talking about. The whole interaction was unnecessary and unprofessional. Things didn’t improve on the course. While we were playing, another worker followed our group for about six holes, repeatedly accusing us of bringing alcohol onto the property. We didn’t have any, and we even allowed him to check all of our carts to prove it. Despite that, he continued to follow us and asked again a couple of holes later if we had alcohol. It felt like harassment at that point. Overall, the customer service here was terrible. Between the ridiculous behavior at check-in and being followed and accused on the course, the entire experience was uncomfortable and frustrating. We genuinely felt profiled during our visit. Definitely not a place I’d recommend.

Greens are in rough shape- sand traps look like they haven’t been tended in months. Genuinely. Algae and fungus growth everywhere Joke of a course for the price they’re charging. Could be a nice spot if whoever is in charge cared a little bit. Customer service is brutal. A couple of older gentleman that work in the Pro Shop have no business interacting with customers
