About
Until the new Los Lagos club opened recently, Monte Cristo, previously known as Palacio, was the only 18-hole course in Edinburg. The name of the game here is dealing with the wind, which seems to always blow from the Gulf and makes the course much more difficult.
Getting there : Exit Monte Cristo off 281 south, then turn left and drive 2.5 miles to the course.

Great time
Staff was very friendly and the greens were amazing. Really enjoyed the course.
Great challenge
We were a 4 some & pace started out a little slow but the 2 groups in front of us stopped after 9 holes, so we started moving along a nice pace. Course was in great shape even after the cold weather that we have had. Wish it was a little closer to Mercedes so we wouldn’t need to deal with the McAllen traffic.
Green greens
The greenest greens I have played on in the Valley. Three greens had been aerated not the best but still okay.
Monte Cristo Reservation
Disappointed with check in, Rate was to be $33 ea ($132 total) including tax. Pd $19.80 to Golf Pass for booking, remainder to be paid at course. Was charged 8.25% sales tax ($9.26) on remainder balance of $112.20 due at course. Showed check in clerk verification reservation which clearly stated $33 player INCLUDING 18 holes, cart, AND TAX. We will probably not reserve this course again.
Nice course to play.
Course is in pretty good shape. Lots of water to cause trouble. No bunkers. Amy the bartender is fantastic. Great drink prices.
Fun
Played with another couple had lots of fun , plays easy so adds to a relaxing game
Low end course
Typical rural Texas track. Greens were decent, the rest not great. Dated and provides locals with affordable place to play.
Great Day
Great course lots of fun; condition is the best in the area,good value, looking to play again soon.Denis
Great course for the money.
The Greens were in great shape. Pleasure to putt on a true surface. The fairways can be a little narrow when playing the course for the first time. Tee boxes were in good shape. More a precision course than a long distance one.
