Fazio Foothills

Barton Creek Resort & Spa’s signature golf course is an astonishingly beautiful design masterpiece by Tom Fazio.  The architectural layout features dramatic cliff-lined fairways, natural limestone caves, waterfalls, and superb TiffEagle Bermuda greens, which gives golfers 18 holes of pure pleasure with no lack of challenge.  This unforgettable golfing experience provides plenty of elevation change and visual impact.

The Fazio Foothills course, established in 1986, ranks at the top of all experts’ lists.  Golfweek Magazine rates the Foothills #4 among America’s 50 Best Resort Courses.  The course is also named the Best Resort Course in Texas and has the distinction of consistently having several holes listed among the State’s Best or Most Beautiful Holes (holes #12, 4, 9, 16, 10, 18) recognized by the Dallas Morning News.

Fazio Canyons

The 7,153-yard, par-72 layout boasts the signature of Tom Fazio, the legendary golf designer of Barton Creek’s 18-hold Fazio Foothill’s course.  Fazio’s 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 Creek’s existing #18 hole on the Foothills course.
