Rating Snapshot
About
Built along Lake Travis in 1971, Point Venture was the first course in Leander, but has been overshadowed since the opening of Crystal Falls. The course has 9 holes that meander through a residential development and is loaded with dogleg holes and mature trees.
Jimmy Demaret designed the course, and his layout features two nasty par 5s. The best hole on the course is No. 7–a scenic hole that starts from an elevated tee box and plays downhill to a green surrounded by a lake.
Getting there : From I-35, exit FM 1431 and drive west approximately 25 miles to Lago Vista. Turn left on Lohman Ford Rd. and drive 8 miles to the Point Venture guard gate.

By far the worst golfing experience I’ve ever had. Booked a tee time on the GolfNow app, paid online and had the money come out of my bank account. Got to the course and they didn’t have my tee time. I proved it with bank statements, confirmation emails, and confirmation numbers. Had to end up paying double to play. Was told we had a free meal with the round… the free meal was a hotdog. Imagine that! The starter had my tee time down on his notebook but the person in the pro shop obviously didn’t. We had 6 groups of four skip ahead of us while waiting on the first tee. The course double booked EVERY tee time and then acted like it was everyone else’s fault. Overall the course was in horrible shape. Tee boxes were complete sand, the fairways were patchy as could be, and the greens looked like a European city during WWII. Just an overall horrible establishment. DO NOT GO HERE IF YOU’RE OUT OF TOWN!!!!!
PV is OK!
Greens are getting back in shape. Fun course to play!
Overall the courses in great shape but it's one of my favorites so it's really hard to complain about had a great day thanks a lot.
Shot fastest round ever!
I played in less than 3 hours. I was alone and the other players were very nice and let me play through twice when I started my 2nd time around the 9 hole course. 19th hole is good buy needs to serve alcohol but has a good selection of draft and can beers. Also shot one of my best scores of 83 using new Taylormade strip balls and was constantly hitting over 200 yard drives!
Great golf by lake Travis
This was a hidden gem it was a really nice course not too difficult but not easy either. Although this is a 9 hole course it was a ton a fun and conditions were good. The drive to the course was nice the staff was amazing over all a great course.
Great course for the money.
Course is in good shape . Fairways are narrow, greens are small and quick.
Hidden gem
First time out here and I have been missing out. Well maintained course. Definitely has some challenges and makes you play a little smarter out there.
