The 5 Best Golf Courses in Texas

In order to define the five best golf courses in Texas, you should first consider what makes them the best. Clearly some courses are better than others but if you cannot afford to play on it, is it really the best? On the other hand, if the golf course is more than affordable but the course itself is subpar, it is not the best either.So in order to rank the five best golf courses in Texas, this list includes the best course by design, the best course based on value, and the best courses for the average budget. This is perhaps the more reliable way to rank public and private golf courses so that even if you do not have country club money, you can find a course that you will like and you can afford to play on!

1. Out of all of the golf courses in Texas, Dallas National Golf Club is perhaps the best designed, most sculpted, and distinguished golf course in the state. If you can afford to play there, no doubt, it would likely be the best course you have ever played. However, golfing on this championship course is by invitation only so for most it is unattainable.

2. Golf Magazine ranks Memorial Park Golf Course in Houston as the best bargain for golfers. This course was first built back during the Great Depression and has been the site of more than a dozen PGA Tours held in Houston. It has been completely refurbished and can be played for less than $50!

Out of the two courses at Cypresswood in Spring, Cypresswood Golf Club has been chosen to play host to qualifying rounds of the Houston Open because of its great landscaping, challenging courses, and professional design. In addition to its great features it is also priced affordably for recreational golfers.

3. Fourth on this list of the top five best golf courses in Texas is located in the heart of Montgomery County in Conroe, TX. The Links at Westfork sits along the San Jacinto River giving golfers an attractive course accented by pristine waters. It has a challenging terrain and the design is very unique.

4. Last on the list is a public course that was once devastated by Hurricane Ike but now has been beautifully restored. Moody Gardens Golf Course in Galveston has been completely rehabilitated after an investment of more than $15 million to restore this exquisitely designed public course. For a bargain on an excellent course that is open to the public, Moody Gardens tops them all!
