Turtle Hill Golf Course ☆ Follow

Turtle Hill Golf Course is an 18-hole course featuring 6,742 yards of golf with a par of 72, designed by Dick Murphy and opened in 1993. Located just north of the German town of Muenster, Texas, the course sits in a remote area of North Texas. The course features a beautiful relaxed setting, challenging and picturesque 18-hole layout, unforgettable views, outstanding bent grass greens, and a friendly and professional staff.

The front nine is more traditional and straightforward, but the back nine features a variety of holes, elevation change, doglegs, blind shots, and narrow tree-lined fairways with elevated tees. Although Turtle Hill has very few bunkers and water hazards that come into play, each hole requires precision and accuracy in order to keep the ball in play, and out of the oak trees. The signature hole is number 11, a par-3, 204-yard hole that is one of Texas' most scenic and unique holes, named by Texas Golfer magazine as one of the 18 most unique holes in the State of Texas.

The course rating is 72.2 with a slope rating of 123. The signature par three eleventh is picture-perfect with a two-club drop in elevation, requiring a perfect tee shot to avoid the protected natural areas that surround the green.
