Great Hills Golf Club
About
Great Hills rests atop one of the highest points in the Hill Country, featuring a Don January and Billy Martindale design that rolls through scenic hills and canyons.
Updates in 1990 lengthened the course, but it still plays a pedestrian 6,103 from the white tees. During the renovation, the last three holes of the more spectacular back nine were modified.
No. 16 is deceptively tough, playing only 378 yards but highlighted by huge oak trees and a hilly, rolling fairway before you get to the green. No. 17 is the most scenic par 3 on the course, a 183-yarder. And the par 5 No. 18 is one of the more welcome finishing holes that you’ll come across, a definite birdie opportunity at only 477 yards.
Getting there: From Highway 183 north, take the Great Hills Trails exit and turn left. When you come to Rain Creek Parkway, turn right, head over to Lost Horizon Drive, then turn left to the course.

Best Golfers Golf Course In Central Texas
If you are a good to serious golfer, you will love the greens on this course. GHCC is said to have the largest number of sub 10 HDCP members in all Central Texas...and for a reason. The course is kept in great shape, even in blistering 100 degree summer temps. It provides an equal blend of fade, draw and straight favored shots. The course, while not terribly long, requires accuracy and placement. The driving range is newly renovated and its great social atmosphere for 19th hole appreciation for the round. Golf pros are excellent. For the money, convenience and challenge, this is a great club and course.
