After letting my comments digest for over year, I wanted to provide a new review. It appears that some of my comments were taken to heart by the staff( or at least in my mind they were) and new ranges balls are slowly making their way in and the old balls that were fished out of the canal and going where ranges balls go to die. Also, the clubhouse has proposed plans for a renovation that will also include a community center. The course itself has measured up and is in excellent shape even after the hard winter in the Houston area. The greens are rolling true with good pace and the fairways have a measure of cushioned grass. As for the houses, well, some will never be torn down, but for the two courses and that Quail Valley offers, you will more than get your money's worth.

Played this course several years ago (pre-renovation) and did not notice any changes.

My distaste for the course began on the driving range. Any course that is using balls it has fished out of the lake from 20-30 years ago needs to invest in some range balls. Range was also in poor shape, but I was willing ignore these items as I got on the course. The course itself is played through a corridor of houses, which makes one feel clausterphobic on the tee. The clubhouse also has a very rundown feeling. Supposedly, the course was recently renovoted, but I saw no traces of anything that had a redesign to it. Maybe they sould have started with the range and clubhouse. The only positive I had was that they gave you a free hat with your round.
