The Dominion Country Club — the reason many residents chose to live inside its gates — was born from a simple ambition: to build a championship golf course worthy of professional play, surrounded by a full-service club worthy of a lifetime of memberships.
That ambition has been proven many times over. The Bill Johnston-designed course opened alongside the community in the mid-1980s and quickly earned a spot on the PGA Senior Tour (now PGA Tour Champions), hosting the Dominion Seniors Classic for more than a decade. Champions who walked these fairways include some of the most decorated names in golf — their plaques still hang in the pro shop.
The course, in detail.
Johnston's design uses the land's natural contours — elevation changes, creek beds, mature oaks — as design features rather than obstacles. The course stretches to 7,047 yards from the championship tees, with strategically placed bunkers, undulating greens, and doglegs that reward both thoughtful course management and aggressive play. It is, by consensus of the golf press that has covered it, one of the most honestly challenging private layouts in Texas.
Practice facilities include a full-length driving range, short-game area, and dedicated putting greens. The pro shop is staffed by PGA professionals who run year-round instruction, junior programs, and member tournaments.
