The Wilderness Golf Course

The Wilderness Golf Course is a Public, 18 hole golf course located in Lake Jackson, Texas, 50 miles southwest of Houston, just 10 miles off the upper Texas Gulf Coast.

The Wilderness Golf Course first opened for play in 2004. The course was designed by Jeffrey D. Brauer.

The course was carved out of the lush forest and routed through protected wetlands. The Wilderness has two distinct nines. The front is more wide open. On the back nine, holes are more secluded with a real wilderness feel.

#2 is a 560-yard par 5 protected by a lake with multiple landing areas for lay-ups.

#7 is a 551-yard, par-5 with a 60 yard... 180-foot long green.

#10 is a 535-yard par 5 risk-reward hole but even the safe play lay-up is no gimme with water to the right of the fairway.

The course isn't overly difficult, but a key to scoring well is the placement of your shots into the green complexes keeping the ball on the proper side of the hole.
