Summit Rock is a gated golf community inside Horseshoe Bay Resort, built around an 18-hole Jack Nicklaus Signature golf course that opened in 2011, the only Nicklaus Signature course to open anywhere in the U.S. that year, according to Nicklaus Design. Where Applehead Island is Horseshoe Bay’s deep-water estate community, Summit Rock sits southwest of the resort core on some of the highest elevation in town, with home sites either directly on the course or up on the hilltops with Hill Country and Lake LBJ views.

Builder Legacy DCS lists new farmhouse and contemporary designs in Summit Rock starting in the low $500s, per Legacy International Resort Properties; resale estate and garden-style homes have listed at a range of price points above that. Texas is a non-disclosure state, so closed sale prices aren’t public record. Treat any number you see as an asking price.
The Golf Course
The Nicklaus Signature course at Summit Rock is a par-72 layout playing up to 7,246 yards from the championship tees (75.4 rating, 136 slope) across roughly 147 acres, according to Horseshoe Bay Resort. It’s a private, members-only course. Golf membership is separate from home ownership here, the same as elsewhere in Horseshoe Bay, so confirm membership availability and cost before assuming it comes with the property.
Gated Enclaves, Not One Single Gate
Summit Rock is organized into multiple gated enclaves rather than a single gate for the whole community, according to HSB Sales. That adds privacy, but it also means access and HOA specifics can vary section to section, the same pattern that shows up across Horseshoe Bay’s roughly 28 separate HOAs. Because both custom-built and builder-built homes exist side by side, confirm which category a specific listing falls into before comparing it to another.
