Detailed description of Highland Lakes Country Club

The course, built in 1978, was designed by Leon and Charles Howard and was originaly named World of Resorts Country Club. The course was redesigned in 2007 by Dave Bennett.

Like the original Lago Vista Golf Course, Highland Lakes offers the same wildlife and breathtaking views. The view of Lake Travis from the #1 tee is one of the best in Central Texas. The meandering fairways, elevation changes, and bunkers aplenty will truly require the use of every club in your bag. The course, built on hilly terrain, features some steep mounds in the center of its fairways. The fairways are tight, and the greens are undulating.

Watch out for # 5, a 372 yard par-4 challenge and the #1 handicap hole on the course. The easiest hole is # 1, a 361 yard par-4.
