The budget for entertainment includes all events. It is not broken up by age. If you would like to see more kids events, please attend an amenities committee meeting and let them know.

The fence capital project is currently being bid. Once three bids are received, they will be reviewed by the finance committee. The AFE is then presented to the board for final approval. We expect to have the AFE approved at the June board meeting.

As per the bylaws, an assessment is for a “project for a specific length of time” and a “lump sum” – neither which apply to your question. Dues are not assessments and are voted on and approved by the Board.

Lakes has their own designated section within the budget.

In 2020, the property stewardship committee noted that several members were requesting to purchase the lots next to theirs, but that no purchase price had been set on the lots. The Committee recommended that the lots be sold for $1,000. At the following board meeting that year, the board member chair of the committee explained “that the Property Stewardship Committee met to discuss the sales price of a Club owned lot that adjoins a members’ lot.” He added that said lots would be combined into one as soon as possible. A board member moved to approved to set the sales price at $1,000 and it was seconded. The motion was approved 9 – 1.

Rules are enforced and the fines are designated in the rules document. The pro shop has Marshall’s on the course during busy hours. If you happen to see something, please let the Marshall know or call the pro shop. We appreciate your help.

We have not received our confirmed date from our supplier at this time. As soon as we receive our confirmation, we will let the community know.

The treatment can take weeks to work. For updates on what other steps are being taken, please attend the Lakes Committee meeting or review the minutes from their meeting.

The new menu will be available upon the relaunching of the restaurant on August 18, 2026.

The concept of “Heritage Clubhouse Kitchen” was developed as part of an ongoing effort to evaluate and enhance the Club’s dining experience, branding, and overall member engagement. The proposed name reflects an emphasis on community, tradition, and the unique character of Hideaway. We’re excited about the future of the Heritage Clubhouse Kitchen and look forward to members experiencing the new menu, refreshed environment, and the many enhancements planned for our dining program.

The Food and Beverage Manager oversees all operations in the clubhouse and the Chef runs the kitchen.

The lakes were sprayed for the second time the week of July 15th. Please give it some time to see improvements. We are also looking at other options to help with the situation. The issue will be discussed at the upcoming Lakes Committee if you can attend. If not, minutes will be made available for your reference.

Look for our exciting new clubhouse restaurant launch coming towards the end of July. It will be an updated menu and some other refreshed ideas, including the name. 🙂

The 4th of July events are posted in Member Central and on the Members Only Facebook page. If you have a specific question on one of the events, please contact Administration.

This issue has been discussed by various committees. Each time the results were to maintain our existing golf cart program. Feel free to reach out to the golf committee about this issue.

You can contact the front gate to reserve a spot. The cost is $25 a day.

Andrew is the Food & Beverage Manager.

Like this year, dues has always supported the clubhouse restaurant. As an example, with the loss associated with food and beverage in 2025, it cost each member roughly $16 per month in dues. The plan this year is to start working towards reducing the budgeted amount needed in the next few years and strive for a breakeven scenario. In regards to changing the dues, this would need to be a board action. According to our bylaws, dues will not be changed within a fiscal year except by a two-thirds (2/3) vote of the board members.

The pool has been permitted and is scheduled to open on Memorial Day weekend.

Our new chef has recently started and is crafting a new menu for the clubhouse. At this time, we can’t confirm that catfish will be on the new menu but we do know he is definitely be looking at several fish options.

Our maintenance team diligently works at maintaining the lodge and beach area. If you notice issues with the area, please contact Administration immediately so the issue can be addressed.

The adult pool is open from 10:00 AM to 9:00 PM Tuesday thru Saturday, and 12:00 PM to 9:00 PM Sunday. Aqua aerobics may be scheduled separately and may occur without lifeguards.

The porta-potty will not be returning. Bathrooms are available in the lower-level lodge near the snack bar.

No timetable has been set for a revamped menu, but the restaurant is currently testing out new specials, and the new chef is working on adding items.

Thank you for your feedback. The website is maintained by the administration team. With the ballots being mailed shortly, we will be posting a page dedicated to the 2026 Board Election. We will update this response with the URL once it its available.

In Texas, there is a major legal difference between a public school board meeting and a private HOA board meeting when it comes to videotaping. A school board is a governmental body and their meetings are considered public forums. Our HOA is a private corporation and meetings are for members only. As previously discussed during a town hall, two of the major reasons are risk management and litigation concerns, and governing document/policy control.

We are continuing to work hard to strengthen the dining experience at Hideaway and remain focused on providing great food and service for our members. As with any key position, we want to ensure we find the right fit for the Hideaway Team. Staffing timelines and discussions can change during the hiring process, and it’s our policy that we do not discuss personnel matters publicly. We are excited about the future of food service at Hideaway and look forward to welcoming the right chef when the right opportunity comes along.

We suggest that you contact the board member directly to get a response to your question.

At this time, all but one of the current Board members have signed the Code of Ethics.

They are scheduled roughly every other month. During the budget season, there are traditionally more to keep the community updated on projects, plans, etc. They are publicized in member central, in the Facebook members group, via email, and in the soon to be available app.

The Fair project has been approved by both the City and the Club. They are currently working on moving forward with the project – including the sewer connection. The Club is expecting an updated on their progress in August. At this time, we will have a better understanding of timelines, construction, etc.

Oncor has not given Hideaway a timeframe for when the poles will be removed. All utilities need to be moved from the old poles to the new ones – including cable, internet, and phone. Until that is done, the old poles will not be removed.

The fireworks have been scheduled with our supplier for the day after July 4th based on their availability. We have requested July 4th, and if it becomes available next year we will take it. These types of shows are booked a year in advance and are hard to come by.

The 15 MPH signs are posted to slow the traffic down in the back gate area. Additional sign placement will be discussed at the next Security Meeting.

Feel free to contact the Board President directly to express your concerns.

Thank you for the suggestion. Unfortunately, our systems do not allow this option.

New questions will be posted at the top of each section.

We have completed the overgrowth removal at this time but will continue spraying the lakes to help mitigate the growth. The next spray date is scheduled for July 10th.

Depending on volume and complexity, we’ll do our best to answer the questions as soon as possible. Best case, within a day or two. Worst case, within the week they are received.

Yes, the phone system is down and currently being worked on by our suppliers. Temporary numbers will be set up and sent out to membership for use until they are working again. We apologize for the inconvenience.

The temporary number for the grill is 903-385-0561. You can call this number for reservations or to-go orders.

We were able to add another line outside of our current system.

Both the club and the city approved the Fair plan. The “Fair Development Presentation” is available under the Community Updates section on member central. It outlines the project and the tracts transferred to the club. The memberships that Fair has will remain with Fair – they will not be transferring any memberships to the club. As far as a timeline, as soon as we hear from Fair that all development plans (including sewer approval and annexation from Lindale) are completed, they will provide us with start dates. We do know that the East Course project along 849 is slated to be the first.

The middle and third lakes are scheduled to be sprayed on Thursday, May 14th. Please watch for an announcement on this on Member Central or our Facebook Group.

You can ask this question directly to each candidate at the upcoming POSA Meet the Candidates night to be held in the Upper Lodge on Thursday, May 21st at 6:00 PM. If you are unable to make the event, we suggest you contact each candidate directly.
