Holes 18
Type Private
Par 71
Length 6424 yards
Slope 121
Rating 70.1

Editor's Note: Course closed for business in 2019.

Leon Roberts upgraded this 9-hole facility in the 1960s, adding an additional nine to the former cattle lands on the outskirts of Houston. Roberts' design is short but difficult, loaded with pecan trees and known for its signature small greens and tough finishing holes that route around Rabbs Bayou.

Get your birdies on the more generous and open front side, because you'll need some room for error on the final stretch home. No. 16 involved the bayou looming left, and requires an accurate tee shot to a narrow landing area. No. 17 bends hard right and requires a 220-yard carry of the bayou. And No. 18 offers a similar challenge-a 394-yard par 4 highlighted by another long carry of the bayou.

Getting there : From US 59 west, take Exit 762 and turn right. Drive 1.5 miles to the course. The entrance is on the right.

A nice course, some holes being worked on

Pace of play even for a Saturday was very slow. The course layout was a bit confusing and could be marked a little better. Overall, enjoyed the play and the wide, tree-lined fairways.

Great value

If you get the right price from Golfnow.com I would not pay full price here. The tee boxes are fine, but the fairways are really rough and need a lot of attention. The greens are new but they need to roll them...they are very very very slow. I would not pay full price for this course, but if I only pay $15 every time...I'm game!

Greens have improved

Played FBCC late February 2013. Greens were in very good shape for February - some of the better ones in the Houston area this winter. Fairways were decent, slightly above average for the season. The course is in the process of re-routing some holes on the front 9 and could improve the signage for visitors. Overall, this course is fairly priced, and I appreciate them permitting some visitor play (which i presume helps pay for the ongoing course upgrade).
