Beautiful hill country views. Lots of elevation changes.

Surprisingly playable and exceedingly enjoyable Hill Country track. Length from the blues was unexpectedly manageable, though you will get stretched out on a couple holes. I imagine if the wind is up (which it wasn't when I played), the course has a little more bite to it. Overall though, you owe yourself an outing like Falconhead.

Had a great time from the moment I dropped off my bag. The Pro Shop and starter were very friendly and informative. We were lucky to have a local added to our group who knew the course. Beautiful layout!

Among the best courses in the area. Expensive, but worth it. Proshop staff a little stuffy at first, but helped us out of a jam with regard to our grouping. It worked out fine with their help.

Very nice golf course. Has the -West of Austin- hilly terrain and uses it to good advantage. Most in our tournament expressed interest in playing the course again. The staff was very friendly and acted like they were glad you were there.

It had been a while since I last played here and I had forgot how difficult it was. The elevated greens, the holes going up and down, and the challenge presented require you to pay attention or the course will eat you alive.
