Max A. Mandel Golf Course
Rating Snapshot
About
Located just north of Laredo, the Max A. Mandel Municipal Golf Course overlooks the Rio Grande River. Golfers can enjoy stunning views throughout the course but especially on the four holes that play directly on the waterfront. The par-72 layout sprawls across 270 acres of rugged south Texas landscape. The terrain is covered with 100-year-old mesquite trees and two vast arroyos, which were incorporated into the layout. There are also a variety of elevation changes across the landscape that can be challenging but the design manages to seamlessly blend dramatic features and playability. Crafted by Robert Trent Jones Jr., the golf course appeals to a range of skill levels from novices to frequent golfers. Risk-reward opportunities can be found throughout Mandel, giving both short and long hitters a variety of ways to play each hole.

Great Track, Loved it!
I played here a couple years ago but they were in the process of redoing the greens. So I was a little bummed out. But when my business took me back to the area, I was excited to get another chance at it and it was spectacular. The greens were in great shape and the layout is hard but not too hard. As always good shots reward you. The worst part is the drive out to the course. The Big Rig traffic is horrendous.
They were out carts when I arrived. The cart provided did not work properly from the onset. Limited power, no gps or course tracking and information. Was eventually brought a new one. The young male attendant seemed like he was in a bad mood or miserable. Very little interaction despite it being his job to help, like he was being bothered. Aside from that, everything else was good. They might want to clean out the water coolers. One had dirt inside and another mud around the spout. Like it was dropped and they didn’t bother cleaning it. Nice and cold though.
The course is getting better and better each time I go.
The course keeps improving daily and the entíre staff from top to bottom are on their P's and Q's.
Great Golf Course
Course is in excellent shape. Fairways are beautifully landscaped and greens are well maintained. Overall this course offers a great opportunity to have a fantastic round of golf.
Awesome course
Very nice course staff very helpful would recommend it to anyone and I don't think they'll be disappointed

The course is in great shape. New management has changed rules which gives an impression of golfers as unwelcome burdens.
Great round
The course was in really good shape for a cold day in January. The greens still need a little bit of work, but they are so much better than the last time I played. I enjoy playing this course whenever I get the chance. I highly recommend it.
1st 2025 Golf Round
Excellent course layout and the fairways and greens are in great shape!
Great Sunday
Course was in great condition. Fairways were in excellent shape. Greens were a little long but overall they were in good shape. Only one green was somewhat unplayable. Overall course was in the best shape it’s been in a while.
