Barton Creek Resort
Had a great five day stay at Barton Creek Resort. Just a great setting in the Texas Hill country. The room was large and comfortable. The daily breakfast buffet was great and we were greeted by name each morning as we headed in for breakfast. The golf is very, very good. I played Fazio Foothills and the Crenshaw course and found them fun and challenging at the same time. The resort is southwest of downtown Austin but an easy drive to Austin's central attractions such as Sixth St. and the University of Texas. We also made a side trip to Fredricksburg (about an hour west of Austin) to see interesting main street shops, the Nimitz Museum of the Pacific War, eat some good German food, and stop for some tastings at a few of the many Texas wineries that line the highway along the way.
