Elkins Lake

Elkins Lake is a 9-hole, par-36 course playing 3,147 yards in Huntsville, Texas. A driving range is on site. The layout is part of the Elkins Lake residential community, set among the pine forests and rolling hills that define the East Texas landscape north of Houston. Tree-lined fairways and the lake itself give the course a defined, wooded feel.

Huntsville is home to Sam Houston State University, about 70 miles north of downtown Houston. Standard pricing makes this a reasonable option for residents and university visitors. The Bearkat Course, affiliated with the university, is nearby, and Grand Pines Golf Club offers another alternative in the area. At just over 3,100 yards, it is a compact 9-hole track that can be played as a quick round or doubled up for 18.
