Holes are not Numbered and very few signs giving directions! Hope you like talking to strangers to constantly ask for directions on how to find the next hole. You might think I'm joking but I'm 100% serious! The course is a decent looking golf course but this one little thing is a Big Issue especially if you're new to the course. There is a clubhouse with full bar and restaurant. And cart girls that roam the golf course with cold beer and liquor drinks. Cash & Card accepted read more

The course has a lot of potential, but the staff are all very rude, obnoxious, and unhelpful. People who regularly play there tend to entitled and unfriendly. The culture and environment of this course is very disappointing. read more

Terrible neighbors...drunk patrons...idiot golf cart drivers...loud and obnoxious music...unfriendly staff.

I would love to give Horizon Golf Course a 5 out of 4 but they lack signs!!! You are enjoying the beautiful golf course but then you get thrown off due to the lack of signs throughout the golf course. Other than that I like it much better than any other golf course in El Paso, yes it is not the fanciest but it is just right. I like the trees, the ponds and better green than other expensive courses in the area. Horizon Golf Course also has good costumer service, I disliked that the snack golf cart lady would just pass by from far away and too quick instead of actually stopping by and asking you if you needed anything, I was never able to get a hold of her, also hole 9 is next to 1 but you don't really stop by the clubhouse in between so it makes it hard to stop by and get something to eat/snack/drink. Tee times are every 10 minutes so bring in your game because it gets busy. read more

I called around lunchtime to confirm when the driving range closes. I was told 4pm. I drive there straight from work and arrive at the desk at 3:50pm. There were 2 gentlemen at the desk having a conversation about pull carts and completely ignored me for a good 5-10 minute. When I finally asked for a bucket of balls, the younger man stated the range closed at 4pm. Does all of your staff act like this? Is there a time you cut off selling buckets of balls? Or was I ignored just to make sure 4pm passed and they could officially say the range was closed? read more

So today was a lil chilly but my brother and I decided to brave the elements and play. We set up a tee time @0740 and when we arrived it was a bit brrrrrrrr. Good thing I had pants on as did my brother and some light jackets. We were nice and toasty... the were some holes where it was colder than others but nothing to to crazy.. the course was in decent shape and all in all we had a great time. read more

Horizon Golf Course - Golf Near Me - Horizon City, Texas

What was once a good looking golf course is now in need of a update. The surrounding areas are in disrepair and look shabby. The townhomes that surround the area are in bad shape. The golf course itself boarders on good neighborhood's and almost seems out of place. In addition I see very little golfers there. Sometimes a few but it appears to be rarely used in comparison to others. If course could be updated and the surrounding town kept in better shape this course could be revived. read more

It's kind of been in the back of my mind to check out the El Paso golf scene, but I always put it off because I'm not a golfer. Wait, not only am I not a golfer, I've never in my entire life golfed. Maybe as a kid I played a round of putt-putt, but to the best of my knowledge I can't recall such an instance. I had literally never picked up a real deal golf club and that was a fact. 'Was a fact'. After a little push from Yelper, Jake E., I started doing some research. I consulted with my boyfriend (who is a golfer) and when he told me about Horizon Golf Club and how it's been closed for a decade, give or take, I settled on them as my introduction to the world of golf. I was pleasantly surprised what I found out in the dusty city of Horizon. We decided to start our trip by dining in the restaurant (which I will be leaving a separate review for), Moonlight Bar and Grill. I have been to Sandtrap at Lonestar Golf Course and was expecting something similar, but what I got was so much better. So much! It was a great start to our outing and had a great view of the 18th hole from the patio. If I'm in the area, this'll be my first stop for lunch or an early dinner. Afterwards we picked up his clubs and headed to the clubhouse to get a tee time. The clubhouse is a little small and I kind of expected them to sell things like chips, sodas and beers since that's not exactly the atmosphere of MBG... but no beverages or snacks. No biggie, I was full anyway. The price for 18-holes and a cart for one person was pretty dang reasonable, only $27 and some change. They do charge per person in the golf cart, but there was no requirement for each person in the cart to play or for you to play with a group of four. There were quite a few people on the course and they did let us know a tournament just finished, but it didn't feel cramped at any point so maybe that's why they're so easy going with it all. The course. Oh man, this course. Now, I've seen courses and I've been to a few for events so I've seen courses that have houses on the outskirts of it. You know the ones where people pay a little extra to live right on the golf course and when they're feeling like playing a round they just walk out their back door and up to the clubhouse. HGC's course is like that, but on acid. But I wasn't mad at it, it's just something you have to adjust to. I was driving the cart to start with. The cashier at the clubhouse went over what areas I could and couldn't drive on, but all of that was mumbo-jumbo to me because I literally understood 0% of it. I nodded as if I did understand all the same. My driving started out a little too cautious I would say because I did not want to leave the path, but there are parts where the path turns to grass or dirt. My boyfriend explained the areas that I couldn't drive on (the tee box and the green) and luckily for me they labeled which areas they absolutely did not want to driving on so it made if relatively easy for me to navigate after the first hole. Now, here's were the golf course on acid part happens. Although we had a map and it was pretty accurate, you can't really determine distance from it. There are parts of this course where you are, I kid you not, driving in the street. It may be for a small amount of time, but it gets confusing as hell and one of the holes (I think it was 9) only points you to the street and then never tells you where to turn off so after driving three or four blocks down a street and watching multiple cars pass me, I did what any sensible person would do in that situation and turned to my boyfriend and said, "You drive!" Yeah, I panicked a little. I would just appreciate a little better signage or for the map to at least clearly outline streets (with street names) that I should be taking to get to the next hole. It's only April so the grass wasn't perfectly green, but the grass was nice for the most part. I am interested to see it towards the end of spring or in the summer, but it really wasn't bad for the time of year. There were quite a few aged trees which was nice to see and one of the water features was full which made for some great pictures. The smaller water feature was unfilled, but I think they might be working on it. They had a couple of water coolers on the course which was nice, but we still ended up heading up to the bar to grab a couple of soft drinks (they were complimentary because we were on the course which I thought was a really nice touch). I thought the course looked very nice. It was a charming experience and I'm excited to head back out here again. We didn't have time to practice at the driving, chipping, or putting ranges beforehand because we went kind of late in the day, but I will make those the number one priority next time I'm out there. From what I saw of them while we were eating, they looked nice. It was very nice, but not snooty... I don't know that I could've had a better introduction to golf in El Paso than Horizon Golf Course. read more

Hello Good Day! First to start the path carts are horrible! RESURFACE THE CART PATHS! Who in there right mind designed the course! Children from !st grade! ZIG ZAG, across from one hole to the next hole! Really! Horrible Marking for each hole, you don't know if your going from hole 3 to 6! Nick R read more

This is the single WORST golf course I've ever played. From Maine to California. You could not pay me to come back here. There were literally no greens. The holes were at the end of the fairway. All of this could be excusable if there was a semblance of customer service. My group played 18 holes and weren't able to get a bottle of water. This is not an exaggeration. The staff that was onsite did not have keys to the coolers. They also must not have had a cart-person, never saw them. It would have been preferable to not play golf today. If I could leave 0 stars I would. read more

DO NOT GOLF HERE! Do not waste your time or your money on this golf course. There so called volunteer golf Marshalls are the absolute worst. We pay an honest rate for a course experience and are stopped with 30+ minutes of daylight to finish what was paid for. I will NEVER play this course again. They are rude - unprofessional and do not deserve my repeat business. BUYER BEWARE. read more

They do not have ball washers, 9 hole rate, signs, cart paths, and most of the time their greens are not in shape. It's wrong from their part to charge 5 dollars more to everyone who plays and not fix any single of these things. Ultimately, there's a guy on the counter that every time that he charges anyone he's so arrogant. Thank you. read more

A Municipal course that could be a Gem if the City managed the course correctly. There are no Starters, Cart Paths are pretty much non-existent and full of potholes with muddy water; no signage whatsoever or tee markers, no ball washers and a dangerous course where you have to watch the other fairway golfers to keep from being hit. We will not be coming back. read more

Emerald springs is the epitome of ghetto golf, and they should pay people to suffer through their course. Made a tee time with 3 other friends as we are trying to play the other courses in town in addition to our weekly Painted Dunes outing. BIG MISTAKE. The first hint we were in for a rough time was we were the only car parked in the lot. The course was still obviously open and we looked forward to a slow liesurely game of golf. How wrong we were. The pro was nice enough but the first thing out of his mouth were "check the greens before you agree to pay". We go check the 18th hole, which wasn't in great shape, but still decent, and it was obvious they were reseeding and repairing the greens. While this is an annoyance, it makes for some forgiving golf due to their slowness. We decided this wasn't a large enough factor to turn us away. Fast forward to the middle of the round and it's hole after hold of desert fairways, grassy roughs that haven't been cut in what looks like months, stray sickly dogs/cats, and old graffiti tags all over the course. The greens were honestly the least of our concern, as a beautiful tee shot down the middle would yield you into old dead dirt/grass. I remember playing Emerald springs 10 years ago and it not being the best course, but still decent, but boy has it fallen apart over the years. It's such a huge waste as their is such a huge population surge of higher income homes being built in Horizon, you would think they would try to appeal to these people and make a halfway decent course. As it currently sits their are a milion other better things this land could be used for than a golf course. A giant parking lot comes to mind. read more

Back to play since the overseed closure, and let me tell you it looks good. The course is green in all shades and pleasant to play. Good prices and Monday deal is awesome for 19 to play, just call ahead to make tee time. If you haven't played Horizon Golf Club lately, call your friends and make the trip. Plus the Moonlight grill upstairs offers great food and drinks and a nice view of the course for 19th hole after shots. read more

So much better than some of the horror stories I have heard regarding this course, back when it was Emerald. I stopped in to knock off some rust on the driving range. Jay, the gentleman working the pro shop, was very friendly and was eager to help me with anything I needed. Had a good conversation with him, he got me my bucket, and headed out to the range. The driving range wasn't anything special, but that isn't a bad thing. The lanes weren't torn up really bad, and you could tell that they work to keep it clean and fresh. I am looking forward to playing many rounds at this course in the future. Will update my review after I can play through a round. read more

We play about twice a month at vista hills. One of our friends that lives in horizon kept insisting we should try this one out. We literary had the Marshall on our backs hole after hole. He would make us wait and let the people in front of us finish and play their games (which is ok with me) but kept on flagging us every time some other foursome got close to us. He was not harassing anyone else just us. Makes me wonder if it was because we were speaking in Spanish among us that he really put pressure to kick us out. I had to quit on hole 11 and left home. Too bad because I was actually having a good game and the weather was great. Never coming back again. Very uncomfortable. Seems like you had to be part of the local community to be treated fair. read more

I've lived on the golf course for many years, I can tell the owners have put a lot of thought into renovating this place perfectly. The greens are beautiful read more

I've played here several times now. Great staff, course in pretty good shape, Overall a fun place to play. It is a great place for beginning golfers up to the skilled golfer. If your looking for a fun course with a good vibe this is it. Speaking of which I think ill just head out there now! read more

Had the most disrespectful phone conversation of my life with this manager. I attempted to schedule a tee-time for my father's birthday, knowing he loves to play 9 holes into the sunset I asked for a late tee-off around 4. Completely disregarding my request, he asked if I had ever played a round of golf. I was trying to explain this is for my father, and was interrupted by him telling me "that's not what I asked, I asked if you have golfed before because if you were you would know better than to schedule such a late tee-off and wouldn't get more than two holes before the sun goes down." After that, the phone call turned south very quickly. I asked if he was the manager, in which he said yes. I told him no customer should ever be talked to like that, in which his response was to put me on hold, and not pick up. I don't think I had ever spoken to a manager who lacked the most basic understanding of customer service, but today marks that day. For a business already struggling to retain customers, you'd think they'd make an attempt at hiring a competent manager. Sad to see that I will never recommend this golf course that I used to play at for years growing up. read more

I used to live in Horizon City and was never able to enjoy this Golf Course due to it being closed. I was informed that it was purchased by a local utility company and re-opened. My girlfriend and I decided to try it out this past weekend. I have played at almost every course in El Paso so I was interested in playing somewhere new. As we arrived, I could immediately tell that the owners had been investing in this place. Everything looked renovated. As we entered the main entrance, I was pleasantly pleased that the Restaurant, Bar, and Patio areas were very nice! No short cut observed! This included the menu. I had a Steak Sandwich and it was prepared perfectly on a French Bread with onions and peppers. The view of the 18th hole made me eager to play as I could tell the fairways and greens were well maintained. The club house was located on the ground floor of this 2 story facility. The club house did appear to be a work in progress as there was less merchandise than I have been accustom to seeing. Nonetheless, the staff was friendly and the course was very nice. The only bad spot on the course were the reminisce of the winter greens that were still brown. My worst comment of the day was the layout of the course. You will find yourself drive your cart across streets and at times, down streets. Never did this before. Also the map and lack of directional sign had us lost twice in one round of golf. I will remember next time but as a first time player at this course, it was frustrating. Nonetheless, the course was beautiful and we had a great time. I would definitely rank it up as a very close 2nd place next to Butterfield golf course in El Paso. We will be back! HGC- recommendation. Offer a military discount! All other courses in El Paso do this. Thanks! read more

It has changed ownership and it is showing. Had dinner at their grand opening of Moonlight Bar and Grill. A little on the higher end of costs for the fare but portions were large. The food was really good we recommend the Ahi tuna! read more

Course is always in great shape. Great rates for golf. Burgers at Moonlight Bar and Grill are awesome!

Pretty easy layout. Good price for what the course is. Having a cart person would help. I may be wrong for not looking for water sooner thinking that we would have a cart person come by and sell us some beer, but the first water cooler we came across was on the back nine. A regular played with us and informed us that it's very rare to see a cart come around at this course. Visited on a Friday with a1:30pm tee time. read more

This review is not for the course but for the pool and the pool area. I have been over there several times this summer and the pool, while it is no longer slime green on the sides, is nasty because of the bugs, leaves, hair and other trash floating in the water. The surrounding area is covered with trash. The lifeguard spent more time with his nose stuck in his cell phone than watching the pool. The girl taking money could have been policing up garbage around the pool and the lifeguard should have had a net in his hands skimming the water. For the $5 a head that it cost us I expect a neat pool area and clean water. read more
