Spanish Oaks: Austin's Most Private Club Community

Is Spanish Oaks a resort community?
Spanish Oaks is a private club community rather than a hotel resort. It's guard-gated 24/7 in Bee Cave, with a Bobby Weed golf course, resort-style HOA amenities and homes from about $2 million.

There's no hotel at Spanish Oaks, and that's the point. What you get instead is privacy: two staffed gatehouses, a small membership and a golf course where members play without tee times.

It qualifies for this list on service and setting. The amenities that come with every home rival what most resorts offer their guests.

At a glance

Why it counts as a resort community

Every homeowner gets the HOA amenities: two gatehouses staffed around the clock, the Pool Pavilion, the Fish Camp on a private stocked lake and trails through seven private parks.

The golf club adds a Bobby Weed par-71 course with a caddie program, a Spanish-Colonial clubhouse and a private dining room.

Life in Spanish Oaks

Mornings start on the trails or at the Fish Camp. Golfers walk on without a tee sheet, with caddies.

You're also less than two miles from the Hill Country Galleria and about 25 to 35 minutes from downtown, so you don't give up convenience for the privacy.

What you're buying

A custom home or homesite, typically on one to several acres. Golf club membership is a separate application. Buying a home doesn't guarantee a spot.

The community has more than 350 completed homes, ranging from about 2,500 to more than 10,000 square feet, in Hill Country, Mediterranean and Pacific Coast styles. The newer Hillside release adds 64 homesites across 83 acres, from about 0.3 to 1.6 acres, many on or overlooking the golf course.

Published figures put a golf membership at about $200,000 to join plus roughly $1,365 a month, as of October 2026. Confirm directly with the club before you budget.

Who it fits

• Buyers who rank privacy and security first
• Serious golfers who want an uncrowded course
• Full-time residents who want Hill Country views with Bee Cave convenience

It's a weaker fit if you want hotel-style services, a marina or lake frontage.

Before you write an offer

• Membership availability and waitlist, in writing
• Current HOA dues and any assessments
• Architectural review rules if you're building or renovating
• Gate procedures for guests, contractors and deliveries
