Play the Highlands Course at Wildcat Golf Club
High Drama, High Views, High Fun
Play Wildcat Golf Club The Highlands, one of Houston’s top public golf courses, offering skyline views and bold elevation changes. The Highlands Course is where Wildcat gets its name. Routed across the highest elevations on property, this course lives up to its reputation with bold contours, wide fairways, and panoramic views of downtown Houston and the NRG Stadium corridor. Every tee box feels like a stage, every hole a new opportunity to take in the skyline or test your game.
This layout is slightly shorter than the Lakes Course, playing 6,954 yards from the back tees, but don’t let that fool you — it’s packed with strategy and movement. The rolling terrain and wind exposure present subtle challenges that can quickly add up, especially if you’re not thinking a shot ahead.
Praised by visitors for its variety, views, and pace, the Highlands Course is a favorite among repeat players and tournament groups alike.
The layout favors thoughtful shot placement and confident ball striking. And for those who love the feel of elevation, the Highlands offers some of the most dramatic tee shots in Texas public golf.
