Jersey Meadow Golf Course

The golf :This facility has three separate 9-hole courses that are played in three 18-hole combinations. They are traditional Atlantic coast-style golf courses. Although ownership has changed frequently over the years, it is now a solid public facility for Houston.

The White Course is the toughest nine, with the tightness of the fairways making it a difficult course. This course does not have much water.
The Red Course is tree-lined with some water coming into play on a few holes. The fairways were built on rolling terrain and the greens are large.
In 1991 Carlton Gipson added the 9-hole Blue Course , a links-style target course to go along with the club's new driving range and miniature golf course. There are several bunkers and numerous holes with water in play throughout its design, although the trees are still fairly immature. On this one good drives will leave you with short irons into the greens.
Three lakes come into play on 6 holes. No. 1 is nice because it's a par 5 and only 464 yards. No. 2 is only 300 yards but has water in front of the green forcing a full 300 yard carry if you want to reach the green off the tee.
