Memorial Park Golf Course
Houston, TX · 4.5 mi away
Memorial Park Golf Course is a municipal, 18-hole course inside Houston's Memorial Park, originally designed by John Bredemus and opened in 1936. Tom Doak led a full rebuild completed in 2019 that reshaped the greens and fairways and improved drainage for the site's heavy rainfall. The course plays to a par of 72 and stretches to 7,292 yards from the back tees, with water in play on several holes on both nines. It remains a city-operated public course, with tee times booked through Houston Municipal Golf, and serves local golfers of all skill levels.
Wildcat Golf Club (Highlands)
Houston, TX · 5.1 mi away
Wildcat Golf Club sits on a former oil field just south of NRG Stadium in Houston, with two 18-hole Roy Case designs. The first course opened in December 2001. The Highlands is the shorter of the two. Both courses were shaped with up to 100 feet of elevation change, rare for Houston, and the high tees look out over the downtown skyline and the stadium complex. The style mixes open, links-like holes with hilly ground. Wildcat is public, with a range, a pro shop and the Vista Grill on site.
Wildcat Golf Club (Lakes)
Houston, TX · 5.1 mi away
The Lakes is the longer of the two Roy Case courses at Wildcat Golf Club in Houston, at about 7,000 yards from the back tees. Wildcat sits on a former oil field near NRG Stadium and opened in December 2001. The round starts from a tee close to 100 feet above the city, with skyline views. Lakes come into play on seven holes as the course works down the hill. Expect a few blind shots, a split fairway and fast, rolling greens. Wildcat is public, with a range, a pro shop and the Vista Grill on site.
