Originally called El Ranchito de Las Colinas (The Little Ranch of the Hills) the area of Las Colinas, before developed, was accentuated with acres of lush rolling hills, sparkling bodies of water and was full of thousands of head of cattle. It was in 1963 that Las Colinas Country Club was established with the golf course designed on the land handpicked by designer Joe Finger. The carpet-like bent grass greens sit among the abounding hills, mature growth of foliage and now, towering skyscrapers.

Las Colinas' 18-hole golf course, designed by Joe Finger in 1963, is truly a sight to behold.

Standing atop the No. 1 tee box, it seems as if the entire world is spread out before you, a carpet of treetops and roof lines rolling all the way down to the Dallas skyline.  The par four holes could be the best collection of driving holes around.

The course offers a real challenge for golfers of all skill levels. Water comes into play on eight holes, and the fetching hills make for some severe uphill approach shots.
