The “Live Music Capital of the World.” Home to the University of Texas’ flagship campus. The state capital of Texas. One of the fastest-growing cities in the country. Austin is known for a lot of things, but its public golf courses rarely get the credit they deserve.

As the PGA Tour returns to the Lone Star State for the final WGC-Dell Technologies Match Play at the private Austin Country Club, consider booking your next golf trip to the Hill Country, where there’s plenty of quality public golf. In fact, Omni Barton Creek—one of Texas’ best golf resorts—is located just outside of town and has four courses designed by Tom Fazio, Coore and Crenshaw, and Arnold Palmer.

To help nail down an itinerary, check out our collection of the Best Courses You Can Play in Austin, where you’ll find the top resort courses, some affordable munys that have played an important role in the city’s golf history and plenty more.
