Laguna Vista, TX - July 1, 2009 - Continuing to impress the national media, South Padre Island Golf Club has garnered a place on a national list of the top master planned communities in the U.S. During a nine month long selection process Where to Retire magazine’s editors visited hundreds of communities across the country and evaluated them based on amenities, cost of living, location, and the views and experiences of those who actually live in the communities.
For retirees looking for an active and well rounded lifestyle South Padre Island Golf Club is an ideal choice due to its outstanding golf course, world class fishing opportunities, proximity to the coast, and welcoming residents. As resident Bill Schnier noted, "At night, we look across the lagoon to the lights of South Padre Island. We have crystal-clear skies and stars. It’s a relaxing lifestyle. Another benefit is the relatively affordable cost of living. In costal areas this is a great value."
Located at the tip of Texas, South Padre Island Golf club is located on the beautiful Laguna Madre and just a few minutes from the beautiful beaches of South Padre Island, which was named one of the top 50 island beaches in the world by Conde Nest. Awarded a four star rating from Golf Digest the golf course is second to none in the area and has hosted Texas Senior Open.
