A Robert Trent Jones II Signature Design

Opened in 2012 and located just north of Laredo, "The MAX" overlooks the Rio Grande River and has been acclaimed as one of the best Public Golf Courses in Texas. Golfers can enjoy stunning views of the Rio Grande River throughout the course, especially on the four holes that play directly on the waterfront. The course features a great variety of holes, with short and long Par 4s and Par 5s, and four unique Par 3s that range from 138 yards to 210 yards from the tips.

Below are just a few of our Wedding & Event Testimonials across some of the most respected review sites on the internet. We're proud that our customers give The Max some of the highest Reviews & Testimonials again and again.

"We used the venue for our wedding at the end of March. We knew we wanted a location that hadn't been overused in Laredo but also beautiful. We were so pleasantly surprised that the chef, Lorenzo Serratos was located here! He helped us coordinate everything that went on leading up to the wedding as well as the day of. We were able to take advantage of the outdoors by doing a cocktail hour downstairs and have the reception upstairs. It was amazing because so many Laredoans have never seen the view that The Max has to offer, but people that were visiting from out of town and out of state had such a great impression of what Laredo has to offer in beauty and in taste of food. My now husband also surprised me that day with fireworks! This location was evidently a wonderful place to do it as the night sky lit up with large fireworks! Could not have asked for more! Thank you The Max for being awesome!"

"A very beautiful Spanish styled public golf course. Attended a wedding and the first thing that caught my eye was the view from the patio. Watching the sunset during the reception was amazing... The management is funny, friendly, and easy-going. It was my first time visiting, but it sure won't be my last. I plan on returning next time I find myself in town."

"Beautiful event venue. The grounds are breathtaking for an outdoor wedding..."

Before and after your round come enjoy our beautiful new 9,000 square foot clubhouse opened during the summer of 2013 by LPGA legend Nancy Lopez.
