Max A Mandel Golf Course

Opened in 2012 and located just north of Laredo, "The MAX" overlooks the Rio Grande River and has been acclaimed as one of the best Public Golf Courses in Texas.

Golfers can enjoy stunning views of the Rio Grande River throughout the course, especially on the four holes that play directly on the waterfront. The course features a great variety of holes, with short and long Par 4s and Par 5s, and four unique Par 3s that range from 138 yards to 210 yards from the tips. The layout even offers up everything from double fairways to a few semi-blind tee shots, adding to the challenge & mystique of this beautifully maintained track.
