Rockport Country Club

The golf : RCC is the best place to play in Rockport, an outstanding championship Bill Coore design that opened in 1984, and considered one of the best courses in South Texas. And while it is technically a private facility, their policy is to reciprocate with USGA members.
Coore's layout rolls over very scenic terrain, with views of the coast and the accompanying wildlife. There is water on 12 holes and the fairways are dominated by huge bunkers, including one that stretches an impressive 400 yards. The fairways are mostly slim and the dogleg holes are short, requiring precise shot-making. The course's signature is its phenomenal greens.
The best hole is No. 14, a 550-yard-plus eye-opener that requires numerous shots over water.
