Fazio
Foothills at Barton Creek,
Barton Creek Resort’s signature golf course is an astonishingly
beautiful
design masterpiece by Tom Fazio. The architectural layout
features
dramatic cliff-lined fairways, natural limestone caves, waterfalls, and
superb TiffEagle Bermuda greens, which gives golfers 18 holes of pure
pleasure
with no lack of challenge. This unforgettable golfing experience
provides plenty of elevation change and visual impact.
Tom Fazio
puts a
premium on long,
accurate drives down the Hybrid TIFSport Bermuda fairways. The
small,
TiffEagle Bermuda greens with undulating aprons and grass bunkers make
the Fazio Foothills course a shot-maker’s paradise. The five
different
sets of tee boxes appeal to a wide variety of skill levels.
The Foothills
golf
course was upgraded
in 2004 to continue challenging players and evolve with the changing
game
of golf. Representatives of course designer, Tom Fazio, were
consulted
on where to best add yardage and tees to improve play and continue to
challenge
players. Foothills received new fairway and tee grass and gained
nearly 200 yards, making the total yardage on this par 72 course 7,125
yards. The result is a better-looking, better-playing grass that
“greens-up” earlier in the season and stays green later into the fall,
creating a more consistent and dense playing surface.
The Fazio
Foothills
course, established
in 1986, ranks at the top of all experts’ lists. Golfweek
Magazine
rates the Foothills #4 among America’s 50 Best Resort Courses.
The
course is also named the Best Resort Course in Texas and has the
distinction
of consistently having several holes listed among the State’s Best or
Most
Beautiful Holes (holes #12, 4, 9, 16, 10, 18) recognized by the Dallas
Morning News.
