GOLF In April of 2007, Jeffrey D. Blume Limited was commissioned to re-design the golf course at La Torretta Lake Resort & Spa in order for it to better compliment the other Texas resort activities being offered. This Texas golf course had fallen into a state of disrepair/ abandonment, and needed a complete renovation so that it could fill its role as the finest Texas resort golf course in the Houston marketplace.
