Lago Vista Golf Course

About
The Lago Vista Course is Lago Vista resort’s original track, designed by Leon Howard in the late 1960s and renovated by Dave Bennett in 1992. The golf course has four water holes, more than 40 bunkers, and dramatic elevation changes of up to 100 feet. Lago Vista is known for its demanding par 3s, which all go right at 200 yards. No. 10 is fun because it can be reached in two: a 495-yard par 5 with a creek that looms right.
Getting to Lago Vista: From Austin, take Hwy. 183 north to FM 1431, then turn west 11 miles. When you come to Lohmas Ford Rd. turn left and drive 3 miles, then turn right on Boggy Ford R. Veer to the right and follow the signs to the golf course.

Enjoyed Lago Vista
I really enjoyed Lago Vista. There are 5-6 holes that offer stunning views of lake Travis and surrounding areas. The conditions were great, but a few spots on some of the greens. I would rate it a 9.7/10 experience. It is pretty challenging as well with a few hidden fairways, which was great. I would definitely come back many times.
WB
Over all course is very playable right now. The greens are coming back nicely. The fairways are nice and green with all the rain. And is just a fun layout.
Best kept secret
Love this course because of weekday rates and pace of play. Also near Cedar Park.
Major improvements
Course has made a major turn around. Looks a lot better than it did a year ago. Still some spots on the greens that they are working on fixing. Overall everything is going in the right direction.
Will definitely be back very soon.
Beautiful and challenging
Beautiful area, course was fun and some holes challenging, definitely worth the trip and value. We will be back to play on our next visit to the area. Carts were well appointed with E-maps and comfortable seats. Bathrooms on the course were also clean and well maintained, not just in the clubhouse.
Fun Day Great Golf
Enjoyed golf with friends at Lago Vista.
We were treated great by friendly attendants.
Looking forward to going again.
Nice layout but greens are...not good
The course layout was very nice and had some beautiful scenery and wildlife. The pace of play was pretty slow..Did a lot of waiting. The greens are rough. A lot of blotches. I'd play again but hope they improve the greens.
Rough Condition
I want to start off by saying that the course layout is actually really good. Elevation changes, dog legs, drivable par 4s, and risk reward on a bunch of holes. I would rage this course higher but, the course conditions were horrendous. The bunkers were probably in the nicest shape. Every green except one or two were baked out and had dead spots everywhere. The fairways were not mown, it was like playing in my back yard, you couldn’t if you were in the rough or the fairway. They were also baked out with bare spots. Same thing with the tee box. I don’t know if they have the ability to upkeep the course but if they did it would be a really awesome course. Great pro shop, staff is friendly and nice, bar area is perfect with a big flatscreen tv over a fireplace. It has the potential to rival some other courses in the area if they took care of the course better.
Getting better. Just not there yet
I have played this course a few times over the last 4 years. The conditions of the course are getting better however, still not great. Greens still are hard to put on and the fairways were turning brown. The course has a fantastic layout with some great views of the lake. It really is fun to play this course. They just need to get the conditions of the course better.
