Tempest Golf Club is a destination public course tucked into the piney woods of East Texas near Gladewater, offering a design that takes full advantage of the region's dense pine and hardwood forests. The course winds through stands of tall loblolly pines and native oaks, creating tight, tree-framed corridors that demand accuracy off the tee over raw power. Lakes and ponds appear on multiple holes, adding strategic interest and beautiful reflections of the pine canopy. Gladewater's East Texas location puts Tempest in the heart of the Piney Woods, giving it a distinctly different character from courses in DFW or Houston. For golfers driving through or staying near Longview, Tyler, or Marshall, Tempest offers a quality public golf experience that exceeds expectations for a small-market East Texas venue.
Tempest Golf Club was developed to bring a destination-quality public golf experience to the Gladewater area of East Texas, a region better known for antique hunting and the oil patch than golf tourism. The course has built a following among East Texas golfers and travelers on the I-20 corridor who seek a quality round in a distinctive piney woods setting.
