Hill Country Hideaway

By Susan Breslow Sardone, About.com

Set on 4,800 lush acres in Texas Hill country just 12 minutes west of downtown Austin, Barton Creek Resort welcomes guests to a world of recreation and relaxation.

Three of the country's most highly acclaimed 18-hole golf courses make the resort a choice destination for players: The original Barton Creek Course designed by Tom Fazio, the Crenshaw & Coore that replicates Scottish links design and the Arnold Palmer Lakeside Course adjacent to Lake Travis. In fact, Barton Creek Resort & Spa is home to the #1 and #2 rated golf courses in Texas.

With twelve lighted hard courts, the resort is also the place for a game of doubles or a session with one of the professional coaching staff.

Those who enjoy the pampering of a European-style Spa can request a massage, facial, herbal wrap or aromatherapy. Fitness facilities include saunas, steam baths and a hydrotherapy area. An indoor pool and jogging track, aerobics programs and workout equipment help vacationers stay in shape.

Distinctive dining rooms, picturesque terraces and poolside patios satisfy guests' craving for everything from Tex-Mex cooking to gourmet cuisine. Check Rates Now
