The 7,153-yard, par-72 layout boasts the signature of Tom Fazio, the legendary golf designer of Barton Creeks 18-hold Fazio Foothills course. Fazios second masterpiece is located just two miles from the resort and has its own pro shop and extensive practice areas. This is also the location of the Chuck Cook Golf Academy.
The course offers numerous scenic holes lined with stately Red Oaks and Sycamore trees and features spectacular Hill Country views of Short Springs Branch, a beautiful limestone bed creek which meanders throughout the course. The 561-yard, par-5 finishing hold is tremendous and by all accounts rivals Barton Creeks existing #18 hole on the Foothills course.
Additionally, the design and construction of the new course embody a Fazio trademark of protecting and preserving the environment. The Fazio Canyons course is among the first courses in the country with the Signature designation in the Certified Audubon Sanctuary System. Fazio Canyons course continues to receive recognition and high ratings among several publications.
