Greens kept up well, hope there is some rain in TX for the fairways soon

A good average course for beginners wide fairways nice greens and enough of a challenge. I don't get to play as often as I want, so my playing is spotty. All I have to do is hit a good shot to keep me going.

Good challenge for the average golfer. Lots of variety in hole configurations. Greens and fees in excellent condition fairways still recovering from drought. Ample practice area and adequate pro shop.

It's almost unfair to rate a Texas golf course in the middle of this drought. That having been said, the drought has not been kind to Bluebonnet. Outside of the tee boxes and the areas around the greens, you're going to play a lot of REALLY thin lies out there. Good news: the greens are still receptive and will hold shots--putts are a little bouncy but not too bad. You can tell how hard the staff is working on the greens by the fact that, even in these conditions, a good approach shot will still make a ball mark. Bad news: nobody's repairing any of their freakin' ball marks! C'MON, MAN!

Rewards good tee shots, penalizes wild tee shots. Decent driving range and nice practice greens! Easier than most of the Austin courses I play, but still challanging. Dirt cheap to walk during the week. Pace of play is the main selling point.

This course is holding up very well in this hot Texas summer! Greens are in excellent shape and roll true. Easy course to walk if you are brave enough at this time of year! Worth the trip.

A challenging but fair course for my seniors group (late 60s to 80s) Great price for seniors: $90 for 5 rounds w cart. Heavy set guy behind the counter is unfriendly and unhelpful and would be fired if I ran the course.

Great layout but always windy as it is on top of a hill. Great staff. 4 Hour pace of play mandatory.

Greens are typically excellent and fast. Very short but the challenge is there in tee ball positioning. Fun course with a quick pace of play.

Very good greens and not too difficult. Good staff.

Most of the greens had multiple bare patches; to the staff's credit, they seemed to keep the pins away from bad areas or areas that you'd have to putt through. Fairway and light rough lies were iffy; some of this should improve as spring and summer take better hold.

Love this course. Greens are almost always some of the best around. Fair course, no unreasonable hole, but plenty of challenge. Nice driving range. Seniors can buy a card with 5 plays for $100- there is no better deal around. Wish there were rest room facilities on the course.
