There are three courses we recommend in the area but a lot more if you want to venture to San Antonio or Austin...
The Bandit Golf Club was something special from the very beginning. The course winds in and around Long Creek and Lake McQueeney and plays lovingly with the natural hazards these two bodies of water create.
Significant elevation changes that lead to the sculpted fairways and perfect greens draw the golfer deeper and deeper into The Bandit’s embrace. Tee boxes elevated like hawks’ nests give the golfer a sense of power.
It is these characteristics that likely contributed greatly to The Bandit being named the 5th Best Public Course in Texas by Golfweek magazine. Many other accolades have come through the years, but the most satisfying award is to watch the golfer who, upon completing his round, looks back across the 18 th green, down the fairway and beyond. The look is almost always the same as they wonder—did I simply offer my heart or was it truly stolen?
The Bandit Golf Club is an easy 30 minute ride from downtown San Antonio. Situated off the shores of Lake McQueeney, its easy access to Austin and Houston make it a grand place to meet and play unforgettable golf.
