Mission Inn (Las Colinas)

The Mission Inn Resort & Club had existed with a mere 18 holes for more than 70 years before ownership decided to make the investment in another option for guests. Although the El Campéon route remains the most popular at the club, the Las Colinas 18 will provide a challenge of its own.
Gary Koch realized that he faced a mighty task in trying to create a course with similar teeth to Campéon, and he certainly did his best. Stretching more than 7,200 yards from its back tees, Las Colinas is the longest of the 18-hole routes at Mission Inn.
Although Campéon may offer more opportunity for the golfer to lose a ball in the water, Las Colinas offers almost as much chance to lose a ball in the trees, which guard many of the fairways. Although, to be fair, there are ponds aplenty on the Las Colinas side, the signature hole — “Alligator Alley” — does not feature any water. Instead, it’s the most forested area on the property. Measuring just 492 yards from the back tees, players must still consider the risk of hitting a bomb, due to the arboreal spectators lining the fairway here.
