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.

Worst course conditions

Course in bad conditions. No fairway grass. Greens are unplayable. No marshal. Slow play. Not worse the $16 I paid.

Cold, Wet, Fun!

Conditions weren’t great but this is a fun track. Some challenging holes where you have work around trees, some long par 3’s, lots of variation. The ninth hole basically going off a cliff is gimmicky but it’s what they have to work with. All in all, a good golf value.

Unplayably Slow

It’s a public course so I’m not expecting a speed round, but we teed off ten minutes late and then took 3 hrs to play the front 9. We even skipped a hole to try and play around some slow groups but it was all the same ahead of them. We tried to start the back 9 but waited another 15 minutes to tee off and ended up calling it a day. Course staff needs to figure out their booking and marshall needs to get a handle on things on the course.

Nice views, good layout

I hadn't played this course in about 8 years, but it was nice to come back. The course has some nice views of Lake Travis, the fairways are wide, but there are a few holes with blind shots to get in proper position. A few of the greens need some work as there were bare spots. But I Would come back again, it was worth the 50 minute drive from Steiner Ranch.

Great times at Lago Vista

I've played here 5 times since July and I really enjoy this course. There are some great elevation changes on a few of the holes, and considering how many rounds have been played during Covid, the greens were in good shape and rolling well.

The back nine is definitely more challenging than the front, but that's not to say the front is easy. You should be able to hit most if not all of the clubs in your bag which is the sign of good design. Overall, the layout is fun and challenging, the views are very picturesque, and the staff has always been very friendly and helpful. I will be back for more rounds!
