The best golf courses in Round Rock, Texas

“In one sentence, you could spend a great day at UTGC and not even play the course. The club house is filled with photos and memorabilia of Texas greats, excellent restaurant and bar, and friendly and welcoming staff.”

“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.”

“The Fazio Foothills course at the Omni Barton Creek Resort is a fun, sporty track just outside of Austin, TX, providing more elevation changes & rolling hills than I expected. The Par-3s are particularly good & nice mixture of risk/reward Par-5s.”

“Doesn’t feel resort-y (similar to Canyons). Love the water holes, but decently boring other than that. Fun downhill par 4 to start.”

“Cimarron Hills is a demanding, super quirky Jack Nicklaus Signature design northeast of Austin, TX. A few too many fairway trees for my liking, but strong Par-3 diversity and a very nice closing stretch. Greens were in absolutely superb shape…”

“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.”

“Very great layout, however recently it’s been in poor condition for a while. So much potential.”

“Can walk right up and put your ball down to get in line. You should only need about 2 clubs as most holes are 60ish yards. Every city should build one of these in their public park system, truly a ton of fun. Pro tip: If you are looking to get out on the weekend, go early.”

“Some good golf holes, some poor golf holes, overall a pretty fun course in decent shape. Wouldn’t go out of your way to play it, but if you are in north Austin area for work it’s not a bad place to check out.”

“Typical semi-private golf club. In better shape than a lot of munis in central Texas but has been overrun with much more traffic than it can handle and conditions have fallen over the years.”

“An Austin staple. First couple times around can be challenging as there’s several blind tee shots where you need less than driver. But gettable after you know where you’re going. Enjoyable with under 4 hour pace. Short course.”

“ShadowGlen GC is a quirktastic 2003 Roy Bechtel/Randy Russell design that is regarded as one of the better public options in the Austin area. Very unique topography and lots of risk/reward holes to keep you interested. Fairway conditions were to be desired, but greens were solid!”

“Probably my favorite of Austin’s munis. Getable with really good green complexes and interesting green contours. The trees on the course are stupid but that’s the case with many public’s in central Texas. Enjoyable and has a good variety of holes”

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

“Good place to learn the game. Not the best conditions but that isn’t expected on a course like this. Walking only for the most part.”

“No driving range, first hole can be played as a par 3 or par 4, great value and some fun holes. Cool view being able to see downtown Austin from a couple areas on the course. Some holes feel repetitive.”
