Kissing Tree Golf Club
About Kissing Tree Golf Club
Kissing Tree Golf Club is a semi-private 18-hole course in San Marcos, Texas, designed by Texas-born architect Gary Stephenson.
The layout follows the existing Hill Country terrain, using its natural slopes, contours and changes in elevation rather than reshaping them. Fairways are generous and set at strategic angles, and most holes offer more than one route to the green, so the course can be played by a range of skill levels.
The club participates in the Audubon International program, with an emphasis on preserving and highlighting the native landscape surrounding the course.
