Thinking About Living in Falconhead Resort & Country Club?
Get connected with a local real-estate specialist who understands Falconhead Resort & Country Club and the surrounding Lake Texoma golf market.
Falconhead Resort & Country Club sits on 2,700 acres in Burneyville, in Love County near the Lake Texoma/Red River corridor roughly midway between Oklahoma City and Dallas. Golf here traces back to 1958, when a course called Turner's Lodge hosted a string of PGA and LPGA-affiliated professional events (13 professional events between 1958 and 1965, including Pete Brown's historic 1964 win as the first African-American golfer to win an official PGA Tour event). In 1970, Robert Trent Jones Sr. redesigned the course and the property was rebranded Falconhead Resort & Country Club; the golf course today plays to 6,488 yards, par 72, with a slope of 133.
What distinguishes Falconhead from an ordinary resort course is its residential-integration structure: the surrounding 2,700-acre subdivision is a guard-gated, 24-hour-security community whose Property Owners Association (Falconhead Property Owners Association, Inc.) is directly tied to the golf club, and multiple independent real-estate listings for individual Falconhead properties describe HOA dues as including golf privileges for up to two deeded owners per lot, at no additional membership cost, alongside gated entry, water/sewer/garbage service, and access to two pools, tennis, and pickleball courts. This bundled arrangement was independently confirmed across several differently-worded searches returning the same specific terms from multiple distinct property listings (not a single repeated marketing phrase), which is the standard this research applies before treating a specific claim as fact. Falconhead also continues to operate as a public-facing resort -- non-owners can play the course for green fees, and the resort hosts weddings, concerts, and other events -- so access here is genuinely mixed: bundled for deeded owners, pay-to-play for everyone else.
This is discovery's strongest candidate for a standalone Lake Texoma market, and full-depth research confirms that assessment: Falconhead is a real, sourced golf-residential bundling mechanism at meaningful scale (2,700 acres, hundreds of platted lots across multiple named phases such as 'Falconhead Phase 1'), not a marginal or proximity-only finding.
Golf & Course
The original course, Turner's Lodge, opened in 1958 and hosted 13 professional PGA/LPGA-affiliated events through 1965, including Pete Brown's historic 1964 PGA Tour win. Robert Trent Jones Sr. redesigned the course in 1970, at which point the property was renamed Falconhead Resort & Country Club. Today's course plays 6,488 yards at par 72 (slope 133).
Membership & Access
Does buying a home here include club membership?
Golf access at Falconhead is genuinely mixed. Deeded property owners have golf privileges bundled into their HOA assessment (for up to two deeded owners per lot, per multiple MLS listings) at no separate membership cost -- a real property-to-golf bundling mechanism, not merely an amenity nearby. The resort also welcomes public, pay-to-play green-fee golfers who are not property owners, and hosts outside events. Buyers should not assume every Falconhead lot or phase carries identical golf privileges; confirm the specific terms for any lot with the POA directly.
Living in Falconhead Resort & Country Club
Falconhead is platted across multiple phases (e.g., 'Falconhead Phase 1') within its 2,700-acre gated footprint, with a mix of home sites, condominiums, and townhouses. The community is self-governed by its own Property Owners Association, which real-estate marketing describes as giving each owner a collective stake in the resort's amenities, including the golf course -- an unusual, cooperative-style ownership framing distinct from a conventional developer- or member-equity-owned club.
Lifestyle & Amenities
Beyond golf, Falconhead offers a clubhouse, restaurant/lounge, swimming pools, lighted tennis and pickleball courts, an RV campground, fishing ponds/lakes, a picnic area, and 24-hour gated security with an on-site fire department -- a full resort amenity package for both property owners and overnight guests (the resort includes a country club with rooms and a cabin for lodging).
Location & Surrounding Area
Burneyville sits in Love County along the Red River/Lake Texoma corridor, roughly 9 miles from I-35 via Highway 32, positioned between the Oklahoma City and Dallas-Fort Worth metros. It is close to, but distinct from, Ardmore (Carter County) to the north, the nearest larger population center in this corridor.
Costs & Fees
Figures below are labeled Current only when the source itself frames them as presently accurate. Everything else is labeled Historical — a source checked today does not make an old fee a current one.
Annual dues
Historical$216
One LoopNet listing for the Falconhead Resort Subdivision cites HOA dues of $18/month (~$216/year) plus roughly $35/year in taxes. This is the community HOA assessment that bundles golf privileges for deeded owners, not a separate golf-club dues figure, and it is not the POA's own published rate sheet -- treat as directional (one secondary-source listing, undated) rather than a confirmed current association-wide rate; per-lot assessments may vary and should be confirmed directly with the Falconhead Property Owners Association (fpoawater.com).

What Buyers Should Verify
- Confirm current HOA/POA assessment amount and exactly which phases/lots carry the bundled golf privilege directly with the Falconhead Property Owners Association (fpoawater.com) -- the $18/month figure found here comes from a single real-estate listing, not the POA's own published rate sheet.
- Confirm whether golf privileges transfer automatically with a lot's deed (as for the HOA assessment generally) or require separate registration with the club.
- Confirm current green fees and public-play policy directly with the pro shop (proshop@falconheadok.com).
