This course is closed. Pointe Vista has purchased the lannd and leveled the course. In 2010, they were keeping Chickasaw Pointe open and planned on building two more golf courses and eventually closing Chickasaw Pointe.
Lake Texoma Golf Course is within Lake Texoma State Park and owned by the State of Oklahoma - as such it is inexpensive, not in the best of condition, and the facilities are very poor (premade sandwiches, dirty bathrooms, no real proshop, and most of the equipment is in need of some maintenance). However the font nine is fun and in pretty good shape and offers a lot of variety, some up and down holes, narrow tree lined fairways, and a couple of blind shots. The back nine of Lake Texoma Golf Course is ok but it is relatively flat, not as pretty or challenging, and doesn't offer the variety of the front nine. If you are in the area, this course is worth playing.

Here's How Texas Outside Determines the Scorecard RatingThe Texas Outside rating scale ranges from 1 to 10 – a perfect 10 course would be something like this: links along a cliff overlooking the Pacific ocean and bordered by tall trees; lush fairways on rolling hills with lots of natural hazards; water (which is crystal clear) on most of the holes; immaculate greens (but they are undulating and tough); lots of variety and character (each hole is completely different and includes blind shots, elevation changes, doglegs, and significant challenges); perfectly manicured traps with the whitest and prettiest sand you’ve ever seen; a nice club house with great food and a 19th hole; a GPS; plenty of beverage carts or your own cooler and ice; and it only costs $40 bucks! What this means is that you probably won’t find any 10s in Texas – try Cabo San Lucas, Pebble Beach, or some of the Hawaii courses!
All of the above determines the overall score for the golf course. In other words, we like courses that are pretty, fun, very challenging with a lot of variety, and fairways and greens in excellent condition – all for $40. We also tend to play the courses that are affordable for the masses, which means in the $30 to $80 range. We rate hard and we haven’t found a 10 in Texas yet – don’t worry we haven’t given up and we’re still looking.
