The picture of the clubhouse is inaccurate. The current clubhouse is a modern brick design. The course was transformed a few years back by Tripp Davis. The routing is still the same, w some modifications to the shaping of the land.

Course is set on typical South west of Houston land, but there is some movement in the terrain. It is at the bend of a river and water does feature throughout the course, several ravines and natural drainage areas are in play.
