Flood research for a specific home

No golf community is flood-free, and a course’s history doesn’t tell you about a specific home. Look up the exact address on the tools below, ask the seller for the Texas flood disclosure and any claims history, check the elevation certificate if there is one, and get a flood insurance quote before your option period ends.

  • Wikipedia says El Dorado designed 1964 and closed early 1990s; club says opened 1965, closed 1990.
  • Golf Digest overview says Open ran 2002-2018; club says 2003-2019.
  • Tournament yardage 7,422 (Wikipedia/Golf Digest About) vs 7,425 (GCSAA/Golf Digest overview); Member Course 7,500 (Escalante release) vs 7,508 (Golf Digest).
