Long considered the best course in the Houston area, Walden rolls through a spectacular setting on the southwest shores of Lake Conroe and offers one of the most memorable golf experiences in Texas.
The course was designed by Robert von Hagge and Bruce Devlin, who moved over 300,000 cubic yards of earth to extend the lakefront property. This famous spot is now home to the unforgettable 589-yard double dogleg, which rounds out the impressive stretch of par 5 holes that make up Nos. 9-11.
More about No. 11: A draw is preferable off the tee, avoiding the trees and out-of-bounds that guard the left side. The key second shot should be a fairway wood left, avoiding Lake Conroe that comes into play on the right. If that shot is solid you'll face a 120-150 yard approach over the lake to a green that slopes back to front. Watch the wind and don't be afraid to take a bogey, as this is one of the finest, most difficult holes in Texas.
Getting there : From I-45 north, take Hwy. 105 ( Exit 87) and head west. When you come to Walden Rd., turn right and drive 3 miles to the course.

- Beautiful course, but the staff at The Café on the Green was the worst! Especially Taylor D. who acted inappropriately and unprofessional. Someone should look into hiring staff with customer service experience.Very challenging course and beautifully maintained. Lovely patio near restaurant makes a great place to enjoy a drink after the round on a nice day. Pros are great as well--very good lesson programVery nice course with a good restaurant.One of the nicest and well maintained courses I've played. A little challenging for the novice player.
Well maintained with some challenging holes. Sand is everywhere, greens are consistent. I especially enjoyed the holes by the lake (8,11,12,13). The course winds through well groomed neighborhoods and along the lake.
Staff was courteous and the 19th hole had an ample menu and a good view out over #10 and #18. It was worth the visit.
Driving range was easy to access and unlimited bags of balls so you can hit until you drop. Practice green was consistent with play on the course.
Nice job Walden. I'll be back when I am in the area.
