Spanish Oaks Featured in Links Magazine
Spanish Oaks was proud to be featured in Links Magazine Fall 2013 issue highlighting the best golf courses around.
The best of private golf communities offer an inviting escape from the outside world. But the very best of these idyllic hideaways also offer one more very important attribute: convenient access to the excitement and activities beyond its gates.
Nowhere does all that come together so perfectly than at Spanish Oaks, just minutes from downtown Austin. Thoughtfully sculpted out of the Texas Hill Country, the custom home community lies on 900 acres of unspoiled beauty neighboring thousands of acres of natural preserve land. Behind its private, 24/7-staffed gates, residents enjoy the ultimate in tranquility and luxury. Yet, within 20 minutes they can be in the midst of Austin’s bustling music, arts, restaurant, and shopping scene.
Spanish Oaks excels at those perfect combinations. The lifestyle is luxurious and relaxed. The privacy is complete; the community warm and inviting. Resort-style pools, fine dining, and impeccable service for members go hand in hand with hiking, fishing, and biking. Rustic and elegant effortlessly complement each other.
Then there is the extraordinary Spanish Oaks Golf Course, designed by Bobby Weed. Lauded by Golf Digest as one of the top courses in Texas, the layout makes masterful use of the rugged Texas Hill Country. The routing tumbles over the unique “step-riser” topography and weaves around ancient Spanish and live oaks. Comfort stations along the way serve a variety of treats and the Taqueria at the halfway point is always ready with freshly made tacos and sliders. This year, Golfweek ranked Spanish Oaks among the best residential courses in the U.S.
Though everything Austin offers is close at hand, residents never lack for activities within their community. The lifestyle is designed to motivate families to get outside and enjoy the spectacular surroundings. Acres of natural habitat can be explored on miles of hiking and biking trails. A private, on-property fish camp includes a rustic bait shop, fishing dock, and well-stocked 4.5-acre lake. The expansive Pool Pavilion features a sport court, sand volleyball pit, and sandy beach for small children in addition to the tri-level pool.
While the lifestyle here is assuredly family friendly, members can always enjoy a quiet dinner at The Club while the Spanish Oaks’“kid wranglers” entertain the kids with games and activities.
The community’s elevation provides magnificent views for residents to enjoy, while winding streets and mature oaks separate each unique, beautifully designed home. With homesites ranging in size
from half-an-acre to more than four-and-a-half acres, you never feel hemmed in.
Unspoiled, unexpected, unprecedented, Spanish Oaks offers a lifestyle of understated elegance with an enviable blend of tranquility and activity set in the splendor of the Texas Hill Country.
