For three years in a row, GolfWeek has recognized Eagle's Bluff on Lake Palestine as a "Course of Distinction" among "America's Best Residential Golf Courses."
The 18 holes of Eagle's Bluff golf course wind their way through some of the most scenic vistas in East Texas. Regardless of your abilities, the course will provide ample challenge.
The Designer
The Eagle's Bluff championship 18-hole golf course, designed in 1998, was the culmination of the 38-year career of noted golf course designer Carlton Gipson. Three times named among GolfWeek's "Courses of Distinction," the course has been rated as the 6th-most difficult in Texas (rating by The Dallas Morning News).
Gipson was proud of the fact that he was able to preserve the natural East Texas forest setting of Eagle's Bluff, and although he did not live to see its completion, he considered it to be his greatest work as a golf course designer. This is an impressive statement, considering that he is considered one of the best golf course architects ever, having designed many award-winning golf courses around the nation.
