Hermann Park Golf Course, Houston, TX

Greens and fairways are in very good shape. Course is a little tight in some places. Cars and joggers are generally not a problem neither are allowed on course grounds. Four fairways have streets adjacent but not that close. A very pleasant place to play.

This course was a bit cramped and it isn't uncommon to find others or yourself in another fairway. Also, as mentioned by another poster, cars, school buses and joggers are not my ideal golf setting. At $42 a pop I expected a bit more. The nice thing is,if you know the area somewhat, there are lots of options for where to go have a beer for the after action review.

To start off, $50.00 bucks for a short course is not a great value. If you can avoid hitting the cars and joggers then you should be in the PGA Tour. Course is in average shape, but log onto their website to get some coupons because this is a costly course. No amenities, one bathroom for 50 people to share is not really good. Go to Brock Golf Course for the best scenary and best value.

Hermann Park golf course is a very nice and challenging track. The course is by no means long but challenging in that water comes into play on virtually half of the holes (8). It takes the emphasis off distance and places it more on ball striking. The course is in good shape and the greens can be a challenge.

nice course, good greens, cheap but dont expect to have a serene environment with birds chirping, instead, expect sirens roaring every couple of minutes. but still nice

great place to practice(on the 13th hole we attracted a crowd of dog walkers who cheered us on...unknowingly we all hit our drivers right into the drink about 240yds out)...it was fun to play in an urban environment with cars, dog walkers, and joggers at every turn...would play again...

Decent Public Course

Located in the heart of urban Houston, this course makes for an enjoyable round. It's not long or particularly challenging but it has a good (and scenic) mix of water hazard and tree-lined holes. It's fairly well maintained and has a refreshing lack of snobbery - all in all - a great place for a beginner. Good value for money.
