They have also removed some trees too where a beautiful view of the river emerges, and it could make you forget that you’re golfing and not just sightseeing. Valley International Golf Course will win you over at hello. And while you may not see it immediately from the parking lot, this course has worked to be better every day. That means fewer complaints and a better golf experience. That surely makes it a winner of winners. From major improvements to the simplest and most subtle changes VICC has shown meticulous care for both its course and its golfers. Of course, when it comes to food – which every golf stomach is looking out for – the country club part of the course shines brightly and can easily make you forget if you had a bad round or add to the pleasantries of a good one. From tender loving care to magnificent scenic views of the course to the food offered, these three Winter Texan winners have surely found the blueprint to success. Brownsville Golf Center is exactly what a municipal course should be, inviting and available to all levels of golfers. That is not to say it is not challenging, and water comes into play on most holes. Also, you still have to carry that water at times and be strategic on several holes, deciding how much you want to cut a corner or to “go for it.” Long Island Village Golf Course is located just across the Intracoastal Waterway via a swing bridge from Port Isabel and provides vacation rentals as well as permanent residences. And don’t be fooled – just because it’s a par-3 course doesn’t mean you can leave some of your clubs back at the house. With the unpredictable wind – in both strength and direction – you may have to choose between three or four clubs. Playing at Rancho Viejo is likened to taking a vacation at an exotic resort. With all of the amenities – including rentals for a short visit – this is the place for a staycation. A gorgeous pool with an outdoor bar, a restaurant with the highest quality of food and service, a wide arrangement of clothing and accessories in the pro shop... the list goes on. The course is “playable yet challenging, stretching over 6,800 yards from the back tees,” according to its website. Valley International Golf Course. Courtesy photo River Bend Golf Course.
