The Golf Club of Houston [1] is a private golf club in the United States, located in unincorporated Harris County, Texas, near Humble and northeast of Houston.[2] With two 18-hole courses, it is primarily known for its Tournament Course and the PGA Tour event it has held since 2003, the Shell Houston Open. The course was designed by Rees Jones and tour pro David Toms.

Established in 2003 as Redstone Golf Club, it was purchased by Escalante Golf of Fort Worth in April 2013 and renamed that December.[3][4] The Member Course is private, but the Tournament Course is open to the public. The Member Course originally hosted the PGA Tour, which switched to the Tournament Course in 2006.
