Square Fairways is an indoor golf and entertainment venue located on the historic downtown square in Athens, Texas. The facility offers a comfortable year-round golfing experience through world-class simulators that replicate real courses from across Texas and around the world. Players can enjoy realistic rounds on local favorites such as Athens Country Club and Pinnacle Golf Club, both recreated with remarkable detail. Square Fairways blends modern golf technology with small-town charm, providing a space where golfers of all skill levels can play, practice, and learn regardless of the weather.
The venue operates with a unique membership model that gives golfers 24/7 access throughout the week. Members can book sessions early in the morning or late at night using personalized access codes. Public play is available every Saturday from 2 p.m. to 10 p.m., allowing anyone to reserve a bay and experience indoor golf firsthand. Non-members can book hourly sessions, with rates starting at $30 for one player and increasing slightly for groups, making it an affordable outing for families and friends. The facility also offers club rentals for $10 and can accommodate private events or parties upon request.
Membership at Square Fairways provides added value, including free coffee, water, snacks, and access to training equipment. Two main packages are offered: the Birdie Membership at $125 per month for 10 hours of play and the Eagle Membership at $175 per month for 18 hours. Members enjoy discounted tournament fees, exclusive events, and the ability to reserve tee times up to three weeks in advance. This setup allows flexibility for golfers to practice and play at their convenience while saving compared to standard hourly rates.
Square Fairways is also a PGA Recognized Instructional Facility, offering lessons led by PGA Associate Sean Adams. Adams brings over a decade of golf experience and a strong teaching background, providing private lessons, junior programs, and group clinics. Instructional packages range from beginner to advanced and are tailored to help golfers improve every aspect of their game, from short shots to full swings. Group lessons and junior programs create an inclusive learning environment for players of all ages.
Beyond lessons and casual play, Square Fairways hosts regular tournaments and leagues, including charity events that benefit local organizations such as the YMCA and the Henderson County Help Center. These competitions encourage friendly rivalry and community engagement. The venue’s family roots are equally important—founded by the Browning and Wood families, Square Fairways represents a shared dream to combine golf, history, and community pride in Athens. Their vision is to maintain the building’s historical character while introducing innovative technology, creating a space that honors both the past and future of the town.
