Red Wolf Run Golf Club

I really liked red wolf, I’m not very good and there were a few holes I struggled on, with water traps and narrow tree-​lined fairways. But those trees also provide good shade in the Texas heat. The staff was friendly, and the patrons are well mannered. My only complaint is that I didn’t see one beer cart, had to get them from the clubhouse.

This course is located in the pine forest on the east side of Lake Houston and provides a pleasing getaway from the busy city without being a long drive from town. The course was recently rehabilitated and has better fairways, landscaping, and maintenance than in previous years. The layout is challenging without being too difficult for weekend golfers. The greens are fast but not bumpy and the fairways are in good condition. The length can vary from PGA yardage to average via four tee placements. Staff and other golfers are very nice. Slow groups let others play through. Green fees are very reasonable and the cart fleet was recently replaced with new gas powered Club Car carts.
There is not much elevation change throughout the course, but other challenges make it interesting. The greens are large but sculpted to test your ability to read breaks. Sand traps and water hazards are located throughout the course in strategic locations. There are some homes along the course, but they are located far enough away from the fairways and on large forested lots so as not to encroach on the natural beauty of the area.
The clubhouse has a full breakfast and lunch menu, a large screen tv, and nice furniture.
Overall a very pleasant golfing experience.

I braved the rain and played here the other day. Great course, it’s in as good of condition as to be expected. That being said, the place is not in bad shape. Greens were recently sanded but still accepted the golf ball well, fairways and bunkers were also in great shape. The girl in the pro-​shop could attempt to not be such a curmudgeon, but… you can’t have everything!

Golf course was in pretty good condition. The pro shop employees were informative. It is reasonably priced for the course and it conditions. I would love to play again!

Overall good but not great experience I had there today. Wish I had known this was not a «resort» as their website really entails as I expected there to at least be some locker rooms.
Also found range balls to be a bit pricey but you can go discount hunting and find a rate that discounts 5 $(the price of range balls)
The course was better than expected for a course that apparently used to be complete garbage. The layout is great and offers some difficult challenges, such as 9, a very long par 4 or the isthmus green on 16. Par 5s are fairly easy for the most part, it’s the par 3s and their small greens I found to be difficult.
Overall solid experience. May come back here again soon.

Played here again yesterday.
The course is in pretty good winter golf condition. The greens were in better than average shape and consistent speed. The fairways are being plug aerated and the plugs are everywhere. Seems to me they should be swept up and used to fill in areas in need. But, doesn’t seem like it’s going to happen. The holes done on previous days had flattened, dried out, aeration plug chunks all over them, to be left on their own. Hopefully they won’t be left in place long enough to affect the turf underneath?
The staff as usual was helpful, friendly and courteous and worth an extra half star! 3.5!

Have not been in a year because the place had progressively gone down hill. After playing there today, I was thoroughly impressed at the changes. The new owner and staff seemed to have been working very hard to fix this place up. The greens are in great shape, fairways are pretty good, and bunkers are in great shape from what I remember. Even with as hot and dry as the weather has been there was waterfilled ponds and streams where they should be. I think they also got new carts. I was very impressed and I will be back. On a 1 – 10 scale I would rate the overall course 6.5−7 with 10 being the best. Last year this time this place a 4 at best. Koodos to the new owner and hard working staff… Keep it up!!!

Not worth it. Even at $ 30 with a cart. This course has a ton of potential, but was in very poor shape. The greens had just been sanded and were over watered. There were numerous holes with standing water on the greens. The fairways were in descent shape except for where, again, they had over watered. Any ball off the fairway though was on hard pan with lots of exposed roots. Bunkers for the most part looked well maintained. I understand the new owners have put a lot into improving the course, but, they still have a way to go.
