The greens were very slow and bumpy, and it was 5+ hour round… still, great views, layout, and value.

Thought the conditions were awesome, beautiful range and clubhouse. Felt like you never saw two holes at the same time, and felt like we were out there by ourselves.

I think about 8 holes blended together not in a bad way since the holes are fine but just in a repetitive way. Wide fairways and little trees. So those kind of just blend. Each hole gains character as you get closer to the greens. The bunkering and the greens were very good.

Challenging, tree lined course, but fair. It was engaging, which is better than most public’s. Pace was slow slow. Good clubhouse. Range leaves a lot to be desired, facilities fine. Would play again, value may be in question depending on prices.

How we rank
This ranking uses each golfer’s value rating, on a 0.5–5 scale. Value is how worth the price a golfer felt the round was. Only public and guest-friendly courses are ranked, since private clubs rarely have value ratings. Every golfer counts once per course: repeat rounds are averaged first, then the course score is the average across golfers. A course needs value ratings from at least 5 different golfers. Ties go to the course with more golfers, then the higher Course Vaults score. Only open courses with a published Course Vaults score (at least 5 explicit ratings) are eligible, and a page is published only when at least 5 courses qualify. City pages include courses within about 25 miles of Austin, so nearby suburbs can appear. Rankings refresh about hourly.
