Lakeway Country Club features 36 holes of golf played over two very unique layouts. Both courses, Live Oak and Yaupon, offer Members, Guest and Resort players various challenges with rolling hills, blind tee shots and tree lined fairways.
Live Oak features a par 3, hole #3, which is commonly referred to as JAWS. The hole plays 204 yards from the gold tees over a deep ravine that gobbles up a shot that falls short of the green. Recently at Live Oak Golf Course, we placed 18 Blue Diamonds on the course to challenge juniors and beginners. The length of the golf course can take away some of the fun of learning to play golf. This hurdle can be overcome by shortening the distance of each hole. A family course set up simply involves establishing teeing areas forward of the “red” tees to make the course friendlier to kids and beginners.
Yaupon features hole #18, a 503-yard par 5, playing down hill to a pond with a 50 feet drop in elevation. After successfully crossing the pond the player is challenged with an approach shot, which rises 40 feet to a tricky green.
Live Oak and Yaupon are located approximately 3 miles apart with snack bar and grill areas available at each.
