The Covey is a championship style course in the Hill Country of Texas. A vast variety of holes that make it a ton of fun. Dog leg rights, dog leg lefts, driveable par 4, true 3 shot par 5 and a ton of undulation from tee to green. The greens are pure and tough.

Played from the Tiger Tees at over 7,500 yards but never felt unfair. Pure, perfectly manicured fairways lead right into pine straw, no rough to be found. Incredible bunkering with crystal white sand.

Thought the conditions were awesome, beautiful range and clubhouse. Felt like you never saw two holes at the same time, and felt like we were out there by ourselves.

How we rank
This ranking uses each golfer’s scenery rating, on a 0.5–5 scale. Scenery is the scenery score golfers give when they log a round. Every golfer counts once per course: repeat rounds are averaged first, then the course score is the average across golfers. A course needs scenery ratings from at least 5 different golfers. Ties go to the course with more golfers, then the higher Course Vaults score. Only open courses with a published Course Vaults score (at least 5 explicit ratings) are eligible, and a page is published only when at least 5 courses qualify. State pages include courses across Texas. Rankings refresh about hourly.
