Pecan Lakes Golf Club (Navasota) - Pecan Lakes Golf Club is a public, residential, and golfing community located just northwest of Houston and south of Bryan/College Station in beautiful Navasota, Texas.

We first opened our doors in 2002 and by 2003 we were already rated by Texas Golfer as one of the Top Five Best Kept Secrets in our ENTIRE state. Our famed architect Jay Reviere, coined us his "swan song" among his many unforgettable designs. Our course blends challenging play for all skill levels and simply remarkable playing conditions. Pecan Lakes Golf Club offers four sets of tees to challenge golfers of all skill levels.

High Meadow Ranch Golf Club (Magnolia) - High Meadow Ranch Golf Club is one of the premiere daily fee golf facilities in the greater Houston area. Built on the spectacular terrain of southwest Montgomery County of Texas, the course sits inside the rustic country development, High Meadow Ranch. Here you will find land blessed with large stands of native pine trees, towering oaks, dense hardwoods and natural ravines nestled into peaceful surrounds which will lead you to make Houston's High Meadow Ranch Golf Club your golfing home!

BlackHorse Golf Club (Cypress) - One visit to BlackHorse Golf Club, and you will know why it is considered one of the top public courses in the state of Texas. With two 18 Hole courses that provide landscapes like nowhere else in the Houston area, BlackHorse Golf Club is as challenging as it is beautiful.

We feature a variety of landscapes, including our notable South Course back nine quarry. Our courses are traditional in style, so you won’t find a lot of housing. What you will find is a lot of mature trees – majestic oaks, live oaks, and pine – that offer an aged feel to our courses, well beyond its 2001 inception.

Our layout is superior and requires all the clubs in your bag. You can swing away with the driver on most holes, where others require careful consideration. You’ll appreciate lots of changes throughout the course no matter your skill level. We have six sets of tees to accommodate golfers of all levels. Ranked as one of the top facilities for women by the Houston Chronicle, the ladies who play BlackHorse love it!

FISHING AND OUTDOORS

Gibbons Creek Reservoir (Navasota) - Ready to catch the big one? Come on over to Gibbons Creek Reservoir. Originally stocked by The Texas Parks and Wildlife Department in 1981, the Reservoir supports healthy populations of largemouth bass, catfish, crappie, and an assortment of bluegills and sunfish. A quarter million hybrid Texas-Florida largemouth bass were introduced in 1985, with 133,000 more added to the stock in 2002. With such a rich stocking history, the fish are biting. So come on over and bring your rod and reel.

Maybe you feel like taking a spin on your Jet Ski, tubing with friends, or just spending the day in the boat. Come on over to Gibbons Creek for that, too. Public boat ramps provide quick, easy access to the water. Covering 2770 acres, the main body of the lake ranges from 12 to 37 feet deep, with creek arms varying in depth from 3 to 13 feet.
