Max A. Mandel Golf Course

4-star: Above average course - well worth a visit.

Est. 2012

Max A. Mandel Golf Course is a well-rated and pleasantly testing layout. This tree-lined and open parkland course should not disappoint, with many attractive features and several excellent holes to enjoy. Routed along bluffs, with views over the Rio Grande and across into Mexico, the par-72 layout winds through 270-acres of sandy terrain. Golfers enjoy stunning views of the Rio Grande valley throughout the course, especially on the four holes that play directly on the waterfront. The layout provides a balance between drama, playability, risk and reward, making for exciting and enjoyable golf. Plenty of golfing challenge and usually good upkeep contribute to the appeal of this well-crafted design. One to include on your play list if you are in the area.
