Destined to be a leading Houston golf community, Woodforest is built around Woodforest Golf Club, a 27-hole championship course designed by PGA powerhouse Steve Elkington.
Opened in 2001, the public Woodforest Golf Club features three courses contoured with towering pine trees and old-growth oaks common to the Northwest Houston landscape. As it meanders through the course, Fish Creek challenges golfers, while three sets of tees accommodate a variety of handicaps. Golfers hone their skills at generous practice facilities, including a driving range, separate putting and chipping greens, and fairway and greenside practice bunkers.
Woodforest Golf Club quickly gained accolades through local and national reviews, ranked by the Houston Chronicle Golf Guide 2002 as Best New Course in Houston and listed among the Top 10 Best Public Par 5's in Houston for its No. 13 hole by the Chronicle's Golf Guide 2003. It was also voted a "must play" in Golf Magazine's May 2002 issue. Still considered locally as one of Montgomery County's best courses, Woodforest Golf Club continues to garner accolades, and was nominated as one of the state's top 10 golf courses for 2008 by Golf Digest.
The Woodforest pro shop is stocked to completely outfit the golfer, with a wide range of attire, bags, balls, clubs, foul weather gear, gift items and more. Houston new home owners can easily walk to the Southern-style clubhouse, which also includes a restaurant with a tantalizing menu of daily specials and a full-service bar where guests can relax and recap the day's highlights. A veranda overlooking the No. 18 hole can easily accommodate parties large and small.
A variety of memberships are available, offering a wealth of members-only benefits. Individual and group lessons also are available, as are camps and clinics for juniors and ladies.
