Hidden Gem

We traveled with another couple to Hill Country to visit wineries and golf. I found us a great deal on Golfnow, but had my doubts. Sometimes, you get what you pay for. I read the reviews before booking it and decided it was worth a chance. We were happily surprised at the good condition of the course. The surrounding scenery was nice, of course the wildflowers were in bloom. Most of the holes on the back 9 were straight but the greens were challenging. I am not a great putter but no one in our group could get a good read. Staff was very friendly. I would love to play here again.

Awesome greens

The greens are some of the best around. Roll true and lots of undulations make them truly exceptional. Layout provides for lots of choices in club selection. The 6th hole is a short par 5 which looks fairly simple from the tee but you 2nd shot calls for much thought due to the rock croppings down the right side and around the green .

Great hole!

Great greens, granite outcroppings

My first time at this course was playing in a tournament and the former head professional was in my foursome. His knowledge of the course was shared and made it easy to play. The greens are in fantastic shape and they are the true treasure of this course. There are granite outcroppings that accent the design of this course. Holes #6 & #7 are a par 5 and par 3 respectively. Fun holes to play. The closing hole is another par 3. Don't let it fool you. It is uphill and into the wind. Plays long and requires a shaped shot. I look forward to playing this course again.

This is a great bargain and really nice course.

Got a Hot Deal on Golf Now and was extremely surprised that this gem was so close. My wife and I play weekly and try to play as many different courses as possible. This was an hour drive away and we were very pleased with the course and its conditions. We will be back! The cart paths are not fully completed, but as the community continues to grow I'm certain the course will improve even more.

great layout

The course and greens were in really good shape, but the rough is ROUGH. Some very interesting and challenging holes. I amm a 12 HC and played from the blues and were all I could handle and some holes handled me.

Fun Track, Great Value in the Texas Hill Country

We played Lighthouse CC for the first time yesterday; it came highly recommended. We loved the experience: challenging layout, fun environment, beautiful views and scenery, course was in excellent condition - particularly the greens. We will be back for sure, and also recommend to others!

booked tee time on computer before my hour drive to get there. On the computer there was no other tee time taken before or after mine. When I got there, there were 4 groups waiting to tee off. I talked to a threesome that had the 2:24 tee time. Mine was the 2:30 tee time. The pro shop squeezed the other three groups in between the 2:24 and mine. So, I didn't tee off until 2:45. Made it a very slow round. Course was in good shape and enjoyed, other than cramming other groups in front of me

One of my favorite golf courses

I really enjoy playing this course. The interior of the course is in a valley and the holes on the perimeter are on hillsides. It has a nice variety of holes many of which are easy to remember due to their uniqueness from the other holes. The layout is somewhat challenging while offering a fair amount of risk-reward opportunities. The course is in excellent condition including the greens. The greens hold approach shots well while putting smoothly. They are somewhat undulating with slope, so downhill and side hill putts warrant special attention. I've played the course from each of the three sets of men's tees and found that each presents a different look and challenge. The scenery around the course is really nice including views of Packsaddle Mountain. This time of year, clusters of bluebonnets are on display, especially near parts of the back nine. I usually play here on weekdays and typically make my way around the course in about 3 hours. They also have really nice Yamaha gas golf carts. I've consistently enjoyed pleasant experiences at this course.

I played Lighthouse Country Club again today. It remains in excellent condition. The nice carts I referred to in my recent review are actually E-Z-GO carts (not Yamaha).
