Lost Pines Golf Club

Known for its challenging layout and mix of natural terrain, Lost Pines Golf Club is an 18-hole, par-72 course with a unique personality. Designed by the famed architect Arthur Hills, it features three distinct settings—rolling prairies, wooded ridgelines, and groves of native pecan trees. The 7,200-yard course takes full advantage of the landscape and provides a wealth of scenic views.

Highlights include the sweeping 603-yard par-5 third hole, which offers vistas from one of the course’s highest points, and the deceptive sixth, a 163-yard par-3 where accuracy is key. The closing hole presents a dramatic finish, with the Lower Colorado River running along the right and pecan trees on the left, leading to an approach into a small green.

Whether you’re looking to put your game to the test or simply enjoy a beautiful day out on the course, come see why the award-winning Lost Pines Golf Club has been named one of the best courses in Texas by The Dallas Morning News and Golfweek.

$299.00 per person
The ABMA Scramble Tournament fee includes greens and tournament fees, golf cart, range balls and prizes.
