Course Highlights
Water encircles the 18th green, crowning this short par 4 and making for a memorable close to your round. Aim for the fairway then dial in your approach to avoid the hazard on 18, often hailed as the “Best Par 4 in Houston.”
Course Highlights
Nature takes center stage at the North Course. Unwind amidst wooded scenery and beautiful emerald fairways, framed throughout by over 20 acres of Texas wildflowers. Relax with friends or get competitive, the choice is yours.
Course Highlights
The fourth hole is the course’s number 1 handicap—a par 5 running 600 yards from the tips. Go with driver for a chance at the green in two, but be mindful of the well-placed bunkers and narrow fairway. Careful layups and a confident swing reward most with a well-earned par.
