    • A bottle of Chandon Rosé sparkling wine
    • Artisanal chocolates

    If you'd like a little more time to recover from the holiday hustle and bustle, consider extending your stay at the hotel. Here's a sample itinerary for 48 unforgettable hours at the resort:

    Day one

    Morning: Start your morning at Toast & Tee Coffee Collective, located on the lobby floor. Indulge in scratch-made pastries, artisanal beverages, hearty sandwiches, and more. Cozy up with your morning treats on the expansive 10th Fairway Terrace and delight in panoramic views of Fields Ranch.

    Afternoon: If you’re a golf enthusiast, test your swing on one of the resort’s two 18-hole courses, Fields Ranch East or Fields Ranch West. Both courses incorporate the best of the property’s natural features. Designed by Gil Hanse and Beau Welling, respectively, these courses are designed to test a golfer’s shot-making skills. Book a tee time here.

    Halfway through each course at the highest point of Fields Ranch is Fields Overlook, with ready-to-drink cocktails, savory bites, and stunning views of PGA Frisco. If you’re in the mood to relax after your round, visit the Fields Ranch Clubhouse, home of Ryder Cup Grille and the Fields Ranch Pro Shop. Make a reservation here.

    Evening: Take a nighttime stroll to Monument Realty PGA District, where entertainment, events, retail, dining, and ample golf options await. From movie nights and live sports on the 920-square-foot video wall to night golf, there’s something for everyone.

    Erase a bucket list item by teeing off on one of the largest, natural-grass putting courses in the nation by visiting The Dance Floor. Standing at two acres, this lighted course was co-designed by Gil Hanse and Beau Welling and is open Monday through Sunday.

    Day two

    Morning: Start the day with a delightful assortment of fresh breakfast options at The Apron Kitchen + Bar. With panoramic views of the fairways, indoor and outdoor seating by a stunning waterfall, and homestyle delights like buttermilk pancakes and warm Texas cinnamon buns, this dining experience is sure to be memorable. Make a reservation here.

    Once finished with your meal, take a stroll around the spacious 10th Fairway Terrace and explore inside the resort for retail therapy at St. Bernard, Weekend, and Mokara Spa, all located on the lobby floor. From chic finds to golf needs, discover all you need within reach.

    Afternoon: Treat yourself to an afternoon of head-to-toe treatments and world-class amenities at Mokara Spa. The two-level relaxation destination is designed with tranquility in mind and offers a full array of rejuvenating services, including body treatments and a full-service hair and nail salon, as well as a naturally lit relaxation room, private locker rooms, jacuzzis, eucalyptus saunas, and steam rooms.

    Once your treatment is complete, continue your journey at Green Cactus Café, a private dining experience located on the ground level of the spa, that boasts a wellness-driven menu that can be enjoyed inside, poolside, or within a private cabana. From the indoor whirlpool to the private pool outside, Mokara Spa is an escape into serenity.

    Call 469-305-4646 to book your spa visit, or book online.

    Evening: From the lively country music at The Lookout Lounge & Bar to the smooth jazz at Trick Rider, to the fireside fiddler that welcomes the sunset on the 10th Fairway Terrace, the resort is always filled with surprise and delights.

    After enjoying a signature drink from The Lookout Lounge & Bar and a game of billiards in The Library, indulge in a mouthwatering selection of signature steaks, seafood, and shellfish dishes at Trick Rider. Want to delight in the chef’s favorites? The tailored selection includes a vibrant menu of broiled oysters, caviar service, tomahawk 45-day dry-aged steak with a side of lobster mac n’ cheese, and a refreshing Sidepiece cocktail to top off the dinner. Make a reservation here.

    The night doesn’t have to stop there — explore more of PGA Frisco and take the scenic trail to the Monument Realty PGA District for live music at Lounge by Topgolf.

    The Lookout Lounge & Bar is located on the lobby floor, adjacent to the front desk. Upon entering the resort, Trick Rider is located at the end of the left-hand side hallway, on the lobby floor. The Library is located on the left-hand side of The Lookout Lounge & Bar.

    vacation home dreams

    ​2 Texas cities have the most affordable beach shacks to buy

    Port Lavaca Formosa Wetlands Walkway

    The Formosa Wetlands Walkway in Port Lavaca is a great spot for birdwatching.

    Texans who have longed to buy a home on the Gulf Coast can make their dream a reality by searching for their next home in Port Lavaca or Corpus Christi, which were both named on Realtor.com's list of the 12 most affordable American beach towns for homebuyers in 2025.

    Realtor.com's economists narrowed down the numerous list of American beach destinations based on which towns had at least 50 active residential home listings for the month of April 2025, then ranked them by their median list prices for single-family homes (including condos but excluding mobile homes). To keep the list fair, only two towns were included per state in the top 12.

    Located more than 320 miles from Dallas, Port Lavaca ranked as the No. 5 most affordable beach town with the fifth-most budget-friendly housing prices this past spring. Homes in this quaint Texas town were on the market for a median price of $292,000 in April, the report found.

    Realtor.com said Port Lavaca is a restful place that beckons visitors to "take a breather from the chaotic pace of modern life" through calming activities such as nature walks. The town is also situated along a "major migratory flyway" for 400 different bird species, making it an ideal destination for birdwatching.

    "Although the town is small, with just 11,000 year-round inhabitants, it is not short on attractions and activities, from relaxing on Magnolia Beach to taking a stroll in Bayfront Peninsula Park," the report's author wrote.

    Port Lavaca is also home to several historical monuments and the Calhoun County Museum for any history enthusiasts that want to learn more about the small town.

    The (much busier) city of Corpus Christi ranked as the 8th most affordable beach town in America, with April homes selling for a median price of $310,000. The report said Corpus Christi's bustling population of more than 300,000 residents makes it the most populous city on the list for 2025.

    Corpus Christi is home to more than 100 miles of beaches, including parts of both Padre Island National Seashore and Mustang Island State Park. From water-based activities like kayaking, surfing, or fishing, to visiting iconic attractions like the Selena Museum, Texas State Aquarium, or the Corpus Christi Museum of Science and History, there's no shortage of things to do in this coastal paradise.

    The 12 most affordable beach towns for homebuyers are:

    • No. 1 – Pascagoula, Mississippi
    • No. 2 – Deerfield Beach, Florida
    • No. 3 – Atlantic City, New Jersey
    • No. 4 – Port Richey, Florida
    • No. 5 – Port Lavaca, Texas
    • No. 6 – Myrtle Beach, South Carolina
    • No. 7 – Ocean Springs, Mississippi
    • No. 8 – Corpus Christi, Texas
    • No. 9 – Surfside Beach, South Carolina
    • No. 10 – Long Beach, Washington
    • No. 11 – Ocean Shores, Washington
    • No. 12 – Ocean City, Maryland
