Exciting New Golf Resort on the Horizon!
Golf enthusiasts, get ready to swing into a fantastic new course, as Dream Golf has unveiled plans for an amazing new resort called Wild Spring Dunes. Nestled near Nacogdoches, Texas, this stunning resort is set to span an impressive 2,400 acres of beautiful landscapes, including pine and hardwood forests, meadows, and winding creeks. Located just about 160 miles from the bustling cities of Dallas and Houston, it will be a perfect getaway for both locals and visitors alike!
A Golfer’s Paradise Awaits
Imagine stepping onto a golf course where sandy and clay soils meet rolling terrain, resembling the gorgeous scenery of Sand Valley in Wisconsin. The land around Wild Spring Dunes boasts elevation changes and a rugged ridge-and-valley landscape that will challenge even the most seasoned players. It’s going to be an experience like no other for those who love the game and appreciate nature.
Cabins, Practice Areas, and More!
This development isn’t just about the golf courses. Plans for Wild Spring Dunes include cozy overnight cabins, providing guests with a perfect place to stay after a long day on the green. Plus, a comprehensive practice area will be on-site to help golfers hone their skills. With ample space to enjoy all that nature has to offer, the resort is geared up to be an exceptional destination for families, groups, and golf clubs.
Two Exciting Courses in the Works
The first of two proposed 36-hole courses is being designed by the renowned course architect Tom Doak, with construction kicking off in late 2024. Early designs indicate an interactive layout that takes advantage of the land’s natural beauty, utilizing ravines and positioning strategic greens over canyons and next to serene water features. How’s that for a stunning backdrop while you putt?
Future Developments to Look Forward To
Meanwhile, the talented duo of Bill Coore and Ben Crenshaw are exploring the possibility of a second course, although details are still under wraps. Coore’s visions for this additional course suggest a balance between serene sections and more challenging terrains, featuring thrilling cross-ravine par 3s that promise to keep players on their toes!
Golf for Everyone
What sets Wild Spring Dunes apart? This resort aligns with a growing trend towards public-access golf courses, making it accessible to golfers of all skill levels. As opposed to the traditional luxury private clubs that often require exclusive memberships, this project caters to a broad audience. Every golfer deserves access to a stunning course, and Wild Spring Dunes is looking to deliver just that!
Hospitality Meets Golfing Adventure
In a world where golf tourism is on the rise, the emergence of Wild Spring Dunes shines a spotlight on the increasing demand for high-quality public golf experiences set amidst stunning environments. The earlier announcement of a similar project called Rodeo Dunes northeast of Denver shows that people are eager for spectacular golfing adventures, no matter where they are in the country.
Plan Your Visit!
While it may be a ways off, the anticipation surrounding Wild Spring Dunes is already building amongst golf lovers everywhere. With its beautiful setting and thoughtful design, it’s poised to become a must-visit destination for anyone looking to tee off in a picturesque locale. So, mark your calendars, pack your clubs, and get ready to enjoy a wonderful golfing experience!
