KERRVILLE, TX-Work should begin later this year on an 800-acre development featuring a golf course, hotel and conference center, retail space and homes. The project currently is moving through Kerrville’s permitting process with final approval expected in March.

The Whiskey Springs Resort is being developed by David and Melissa Hoelscher, who own the property. The von Hagge, Smelek and Baril firm of Houston is designing the championship golf course and master planning the project’s other elements. “They’ve felt that the time was right to develop this particular part of their land and bring this unique development to the Hill Country,” says Steve Tiemann, a minority partner with the Hoelschers.

Construction starts on the golf course later this year with work on the other components beginning in 2004. Parts of the development should be ready in 2005.
