In 1879 Gulf, Colorado and Santa Fe Railway Company agent George Sealy purchased 11,635 acres from the township of San Felipe de Austin for the purpose of establishing a railroad depot. Our driving/walking tour will take you to all the historical buildings around town that have held the test of time for over a century.

“The hidden jewel of golf in Texas” is Stephen F. Austin Golf Club. Nature lovers and golfers who take particular pride in spending time outdoors will love this course. Loaded with wildlife and featuring fairways that weave through native pecan trees, Stephen F. is a beautiful 18-hole course set near the Brazos River. Put your driver in the bag and play for accuracy. The course is under 5,900 yards from the back tees, and on many holes even drives that find the fairway will not result in a clear view of the green. Only one par 5 is over 500 yards, and most of the par 4s are under 400 yards. Bollinger Creek runs throughout the course and forces carries on four occasions. The back nine, built in 1970, is a little more open than the front nine.
