I grew up out at Raveneaux CC and at one time they had (2) Von Hagge/Devlin Courses, the old and new. Mr. Devlin's son was a good friend and a regular golf partner throughout high school. Back in the 80s an 90s Raveneaux was a very nice club; however, poor management over the years led to the decline of this property. Champion Forest was an affluent neighborhood for the area and Raveneaux had plenty of members. Ultimately they sold off land from the "new" course and the downward spiral continued and now here they are about to lose the whole club. My parents left Champion Forest years ago but I am sure the residents are none too pleased to lose a country club for a water plant.
Overall, the golf courses were fun to play. Tight fairways, elevated greens and plenty of doglegs. The courses were no match for their neighbor, Champions Golf Club, which is right across Cypress Creek. It is nice to see that Champions has still maintained its status over the years.
