The Best Golf Courses Around The Lake




Are you ready for a relaxing weekend on the golf course? Right now is the perfect weather to spend the day putting on the green. Even though it’s still a little chilly in the mornings, the afternoons have been absolutely beautiful when the sun warms up. A day full of golf by the lake in 60-70 degree weather, what more could you ask for? We’ve put together some of the best golf courses around the lake, enjoy!

 

Legends Golf Course - Kingsland


One of the most ideal 18-hole golf courses for anyone looking to try their hand at golf with (or without) an experienced friend. While the Legends Golf Course is complicated enough for those looking for the challenge, but easy enough for someone just starting out with a golf club. You’ll walk around the 200 acres in awe of the beautiful scenic hill country, golf the 8th hole right alongside Lake LBJ, and trust us when we say - it’s going to be hard to leave.

Blue Lake Golf - Horseshoe Bay


Nestled inside a small neighborhood community located on the South shore of Lake LBJ, Blue Lake Golf has one of the greatest courses right in the center of the peninsula. If you’re looking for a shorter course, Blue Lake has 9 holes and is designed for golfers of all skill levels. You’ll be blown away by the stunning views you’ll be able to see next to the lake and wildlife surrounding the course.

Rating: Forward Tees Red/Green 61.8/93 (Men’s), 65.1/104 (Woman’s), Rear Tees White/Blue 63.2/102 (Men’s), 67.8/104 (Woman’s).


Horseshoe Bay Resort - Horseshoe Bay


Horseshoe Bay Resort has 3 golf courses, each spreading roughly 150 acres across the land, with one more on the way and a couple different options for the kiddos, too! Each course is challenging in their own way, especially where the greens are surrounded by sand dunes. While the courses may prove to be a bit more challenging, you can rest assured that you’ll still see your fair share of Texas Hill Country on the lake. Here, the greens are even elevated, so you’ll probably get to see further than you have been able to before!

Fishing Report from TPWD (Nov. 20)

GOOD. Water stained; 65 degrees; 0.25 feet below pool. Crappie are fair on minnows in 12-20 feet of water on brush. Channel and blue catfish are good on punch bait in 20-24 feet of water over drop-offs and rock piles. Report by Jess Rotherham, Texas Crappie Fishing Service. Bass are very good with catches up 6-8 pounds in the grass with chatterbaits, rattle traps and crankbaits. Brush piles in 8-15 feet with shad colored crankbaits, and 7-10 inch June bug or pumpkin worms. Bass are under the docks with ⅜ ounce jigs and frogs. The morning bite has been best. Crappie are good with minnows over brush piles. Report by Charles Whited, Barefoot Fishing Tours. Bass are good working docks and bulkheads with creature baits, worms and flukes. A frog or topwater around underwater vegetation is working well. Do not forget a wakebait in those same areas. Report by Bryan Cotter, Texas Hawgs. This lake has a lot of vegetation in shallow water. Focus on these areas near deeper water, 10 feet, has been loaded with fish with creature bait, or Texas rigged worms. Fish are not very big but good numbers can be caught. Back of canals in shallow water under docks with a weightless senko. Water is stained more than normal so fish will relate to structure and banks. Report by Randal Frisbie, Central Texas Fishing Guide, LLC.
