Any of you guys live in a golf community in this area? If so, which ones. Pros and cons would be appreciated. TIA.

Club Corp has Falcon point in Katy. Nice course, extremely tight and challenging

Thank you. This is the type of feedback I was looking for.1208HawkTree said:
We lived in Greatwood for 4 years before moving to Seven Meadows (Meadowbrook Farms). We loved Greatwood but I grew tired of the course and its declining upkeep and other cost cutting BS. I now live 60 seconds from the clubhouse at Meadowbrook and have played it a lot. We joined Falcon Point in September and have enjoyed it so far. Now that I have somewhat learned the course by playing it repeatedly, I like it more now than I did initially. The neighborhood itself immediately surrounding the club is aging some, but still pretty nice. There are a lot of newer neighborhoods close enough that unless you want to drive a cart from the house to the club, it's not that big of a deal. I live about 10-15 minutes away and while I'd probably use the other facilities (workout, pool, etc) more if I lived right by the club, it doesn't prevent us from going up there once or twice a week.
It depends on what you want, really.
I notice the railroad while looking at some properties. Kind of a turnoff.1208HawkTree said:
Nice neighborhood if you can get past the railroad cutting through the middle.

Never been a fan of the course, to be honest. A few too many goofy holes for me. Had a friend who lived there for a couple of years that Joined the golf club pretty much sight unseen when they bought their house, and dropped it a month later. That said, it's probably been 10 years since I played there, but it was always in terrible shape. Keep reading on here how that has apparently changed now. They never seemed to be able to keep the greens alive back when I was playing there off and on.

THIS X1000... Greatwood's pace of play is deplorable. Ive played a 5 hour round by myself. (I shot a 91). Trying to play through is a waste of time, as you will just run right up on another group. Greatwood can be decent i you are the first one out thoughBAS for life said:
SP and Greatwood are not really Katy area but SP is 10x better than greatwood. Better conditions, better layout IMO and MUCH better pace of play.
