Austin Country Clubs
Explore the best clubs Austin has to offer
In 1899 when the greater Austin area housed around 25,000 residents, Harvard Graduate and lifetime Austinite, Lewis Hancock, put together the state of Texas’ first formal country club, the nationally known Austin Country Club (ACC). ACC opened the first nine-hole course, now known as Hancock Park, featuring sand greens and a modest two-room framed clubhouse. The club endured for half a century, in large part due to Harvey Penick. After a huge local debate, the facility was moved to Riverside Drive in East Austin (now known as “Riverside”). From there it made it another 35 years before moving to its current Davenport Ranch location next to the iconic Pennybacker Bridge.
Barton Creek Country Club is known for its legendary tennis, golf, and wellness amenities. Members have access to elite country club amenities, including new tennis courts, four award-winning golf courses, refreshed men’s and women’s locker rooms, redesigned wet areas, an outstanding fitness center, and a robust social calendar.
In addition to the private club amenities, the new Omni Barton Creek Resort & Spa provides Members with a Mokara Spa and expanded amenities, including additional pools, dining, and travel benefits.

Falconhead Golf Club
First opened on May 30, 2003, and adjacent to Bee Cave, Falconhead was formerly a remote outpost west of Austin. However, Bee Cave is now a beehive of commercial and residential development. This is one of the areas that Austin is growing rapidly as the well-to-do head for the hills. The land is rolling and heavily treed, crisscrossed by streams and creeks that empty into nearby Lake Travis.
Falconhead does not have all the amenities of a Country Club. It has 54 holes of premier golf, three driving ranges, and three dedicated chipping and putting greens. There are many communities around Falconhead that would provide an opportunity to choose it as your club.
