Rating 72.9

Located in the town of Kingsland on the shores of Lake LBJ, Lighthouse Country Club features 18 holes set in a charming, hill country in the heart of the Highland Lakes. The course was originally built in 1968, winds through scenic Hill Country property full of oak trees and red granite rock outcroppings. From many points, Packsaddle Mountain, one of the Hill Country's highest points, is in view from many spots on the course.

Lighthouse was formerly named Packsaddle Golf Club until the name changed in the fall of 2011 when new owners Rick & Mercy Howe purchased the bankrupt property and revitalized the golf course. Part of the enhancement was the construction of a brand new lighthouse at the clubhouse. In addition on on-course enhancements, Lighthouse constructed a handful of two-bedroom condos for stay-and-play packages and longer term winter homes.

In addition to the golf course, the facility also features a driving range, short game area and a full restaurant, bar and banquet facility.

Wow!!

What a gem. Some of the best greens I've ever played. Course is in excellent condition and the scenery is wonderful. My compliments to the staff and especially the superintendent. If it wasn't an hour and a half drive for me I'd play it all the time.

Great Owner & Staff

We had a tee time that in all honesty my group and I had completely screwed up through GolfNow. When we got to the pro shop the assistant was having quite a difficult time taking care of the situation. The owner of the club happened to be there and he jumped right in and took over the process and took care of us without issue. It was great to see true customer service at work! Love the course and thank you for wanting our business. It's nice to see in today's world.

Excellent course conditions

Best I have ever seen this course. Have not played in 2 years because of the course conditions but this course was in great shape. Greens were awesome and fairways were plush. I drive 50 miles to play there and I will again.
