I was struck by the beauty of The Barton Creek Resort and Spa when I received a notice about their 25th Anniversary event. I’ve been to Texas just once—as a guest of Crowne Plaza for their Colonial Invitational Pro-Am—but I was much impressed with what I saw.

The place has TWO Fazio courses, a Crenshaw and a Palmer. All look wonderful. I’m thinking I want to take four days there and play them all.

BARTON CREEK RESORT & SPA CELEBRATES 25th ANNIVERSARY
Yearlong commemoration includes special anniversary packages, new F&B additions, and spa offerings

AUSTIN, TX – September 6, 2012 – Barton Creek Resort & Spa, the #1 golf resort in Texas located in Austin’s scenic Texas Hill Country, kicked off its 25th anniversary celebration yesterday with a special party attended by resort dignitaries past and present including ClubCorp President and CEO Eric Affeldt, General Manager James Walsh and longtime patrons Darrell and Edith Royal among others.

“We are thrilled to share this wonderful milestone with our staff, local residents, and loyal guests who have supported us since our opening on September 5, 1987,” says General Manager James Walsh. “We view our 25th anniversary as a perfect opportunity to thank our staff and guests for their continuous loyalty.”

Barton Creek Resort & Spa officially opened its doors September 5, 1987, with former First Lady of the US Lady Bird Johnson in attendance for the grand opening ceremony. The resort’s four championship golf courses were introduced in 1986 (Fazio Foothills & Palmer Lakeside), 1991 (Crenshaw Cliffside), and 2000 (Fazio Canyons). The resort underwent a major expansion in 2000, with the addition of 154 new guestrooms and suites, expanded meeting space, new restaurant and new resort swimming pool. Along the way, the resort has hosted a variety of notable events and tournaments, including the Liberty Mutual Legends of Golf (Senior PGA) Tournament, and many influential guests including former #41 President Bush and former #43 President Bush.

In celebration of its 25-year milestone, Barton Creek Resort will offer guests an array of commemorative packages and offerings in a yearlong anniversary celebration including:
