Black Jack’s Crossing at Lajitas Golf Resort and Spa
Lajitas
Watch out for the ocotillo when you tee off at this lauded Lanny Wadkins–designed course located between Big Bend National Park and Big Bend State Park. The stunning, 18-hole fairway has varied terrain that includes mountainous holes to sweeping views of the Rio Grande and Mexico. The course is named after U.S. Army General “Black Jack” Pershing, who famously pursued Pancho Villa. History buffs will also enjoy the fact that the clubhouse is the former Lajitas Trading Post once used by miners and cowboys during the early days of the Texas Frontier.
