THE GOLF CLUB AT MARGARITAVILLE

The Jimmy Buffett theme might make you roll your eyes, but this Montgomery layout delivers serious golf across rolling East Texas terrain that rewards course management over brute force. Architect Bruce Littell carved fairways through mature pine and hardwood forests, creating demanding approach shots to elevated, well-contoured greens that penalize the reckless and reward precision. The par-4 16th epitomizes the design philosophy—a dogleg left around towering trees where only a perfectly positioned drive unlocks a reasonable angle to a green that slopes wickedly from back to front.
