Austin Country Club isn’t just a golf course — it’s the city’s most exclusive blend of legacy, luxury, and lakeside living. Tucked under the iconic Pennybacker Bridge on the banks of the Colorado River, this gated haven has hosted golf legends, power deals, and generational wealth since 1899.
In this blog, Nicole Cooper — seasoned Austin real estate expert and former UT golfer — walks you through the course layout, the impossible-to-get-in club membership, nearby schools and hotspots, and the real estate reality of living on (or near) the legendary fairways. And if you stay till the end, you’ll get a sneak peek at a jaw-dropping $11.7M off-market lakefront property — the kind of listing you’ll never find on Zillow.
