Rating 35.1

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.

Fun to play

Thuis course is real fun to play, allthough à little easy, but with difficult to read greens. The staff should be taught to be a little friendlier to their guests.

Point Venture is one of mine and my husbands favorite courses...

People here are so nice. The first time we went, we were a little put off because an employee was mowing the first fairway, so we had to wait for him to move on. He continued to mow on the fairway of the next hole and on and on til about the 5th until he either took a break or was finished. Every time after always a pleasure. We had one gent with his daughter show up and "cut line" around my husband and I and when my husband asked if he'd show some etiquette, he didn't feel he'd done anything wrong. We only ask that he "asked" first out of common courtesy. He soon left the course and I hope he returns, no harm no foul just requesting some level of decorum.

Great 9 hole course for a quick round

Nice course, very casual and no crowds. Inexpensive. The couse is in pretty good condition considering the summer we had in central Texas. Greens are good overall. Good beginner course - 9 holes is just about right. I took my son out for his first ever round and although he was chalenged, it was enjoyable for both of us.
