Point at Atascocita Golf Club

Atascocita Golf Club sits in the Atascocita community northeast of Houston, part of the broader Humble area in Harris County. The course was designed by Ralph Plummer, a Texas-based architect who worked extensively throughout the state during the latter decades of the twentieth century. Plummer's designs typically reflect the regional characteristics of their settings, and Atascocita occupies land shaped by the East Texas pine belt transition zone, where the coastal plain begins to show more elevation change and tree cover than courses closer to Galveston Bay.

The routing works through stands of pine and hardwood, with fairways that move across gently rolling terrain. Water features appear on several holes, a common element in Houston-area golf where natural drainage patterns and engineered retention areas shape playing strategy. The layout offers a straightforward test for daily-fee and member play, with hazards positioned to reward accurate driving and approach work without requiring exceptional length.

The club serves the residential community that developed around Lake Houston during the growth period of northeast Harris County. Atascocita functions as a neighborhood amenity course, providing accessible golf in a region where public and semi-private facilities accommodate the area's expanding population. The course reflects the practical design approach common to Texas community golf in its era, balancing playability for a range of skill levels with enough challenge to maintain interest for regular players.
