Wolfdancer Golf Club Lost Pines, TX
“On most golf courses, an architect is lucky to have a desirable golf environment in which to create distinct golf holes. At Wolfdancer, we had three: a high open prairie with long panoramic views, a forested and rumpled ridgeline and lower valley along the Colorado River.”

Project Details
Located at the Hyatt Regency Lost Pines Resort, Wolfdancer Golf Club is known as one of the Austin-area’s upscale resort courses. According to Golfweek’s golf course rankings, Wolfdancer G.C. is among the top golf courses in Texas.
While working for Arthur Hills, Chris Wilczynski was the lead designer and project manager of the Wolfdancer course and relished the landscape they had to work with. Described as “one of the most rewarding projects he’s ever worked on”, Chris attributes that to “a great client and an amazing piece of property.”

- Multiple tee system playing from 7205 to 4953 yards.
