First Time visitor

We are from Houston and for our first time here at this course, we had a blast. The difficulty above our normal course it was a good challenge for us. The staff was friendly and we will be planning another trip down to Bastrop to give this course another Wack.

Rough shape

The fairways had many areas where grass was non existent or grass was unmowed in areas.,even lost my ball in one fairway The greens had not recovered well from aerating. Tee boxes had little to no information about the hole and one tee box had been moved very far forward as the fairway was under repair but no sign addressing this and golfers were left to find this out on their own. One restroom on backside of course was out of order. This course does not reflect the title of country club very well.

Still Needs Work

This course has a lot of promise. I heard it was making a comeback. It is still certainly in the early part of the comeback phase. Half of the greens still have patches that won’t grow grass. All of the fairways are terrible. Bare rock and gravel in the middle of some fairways.
Too overpriced. Needs about 2 years of work to be charging the $50 they are for a weekend morning. Hope it’s able to get to that point but for now steer clear.

Colovista round

When we got to the course, they were working on the course so only the front nine was opened for play. They are still working to bring the course back to good shape from the 5 years it was shutdown and the hard freeze last year. No snack bar at this time during the week but the staff was excellent. Even comped up 9 holes since we couldn’t play the back nine. Overall was great time considering their struggles. Would definitely go back even if we didn’t have partial free golf.

So much potential

Played this course in its prime, which was very nice and many moons ago. Current conditions are a long way off from back in the day. The greens are coming together, they were good and fast, the rest of the course is in repair and in need.

Lacking

The first visual impression of the club is awesome! Then….. not so much. 1) when I checked in, the guy didn’t ask if I needed range balls or even say where the range was then when I find it it turns out the balls are back at the clubhouse which is 1/4 mile away. Argh!!
The desk guy didn’t mention the greens were sanded and offered no discount because of it. Argh!!!
The course has so much potential but was in pretty poor shape overall
I may give it second chance in the Spring
Don’t waste your money right now(Feb 2022) it’s not worth the $40 I paid.

What a dump

I was overcharged to play a so called golf course. This was one of the worst golf courses I have ever played. The layout was ok. It has potential but has been neglected. The pace was awful and never saw a Marshall or anyone of authority out to check on pace. The fairways were so sparse in some places a goat would have starved. The greens looked good but putted terribly. They were bumpy and you could putt the same putt three times and it would do three different things. Won’t be back and I will let my golf buddies know to avoid this overpriced goat track.

ColoVista after rain

The course had over 3” of rain the evening before we played in the morning. This course does not drain well. Several bunkers were little ponds. The fairways did not drain well. The course lays out well and greens are smooth and fast. We will come back again in the summer

Greens nice. Tee to green, not so much.

We’ve played this course several times over the years. The front nine condition is one notch above terrible from tees until greens. The back nine appears to have gotten the most attention since new management took over a couple years ago. The greens are the most improved and show the obvious concentration of starting the maintenance on there as they are rolling true and fast. There is hardly a playable bunker on any hole of the course, fairways, especially on the front nine are almost nonexistent and hard as rocks. A lot of work still remains to get this neat layout back to a value of $35-45 green fees.

Not The Best

I hope this golf course is being rebuilt. Tricky greens, hills, and water show potential but the bunkers don’t drain, no food, no cart person, and no water was provided on the course. Also, parts of the courses are both overly firm or nice consistency on the fairway. The greens can be both fast with large hills or extremely slow with a hill at the cup. It is very patchy on the greens and fairways. Not having water to drink on the course was brutal and the worst part outside of the inconsistency.
There was a giant plantation house that is right smack in entrance when you get to the course. We were guessing that’s not the restaurant since there’s no signs just a giant mansion. The clubhouse was a small shack to the left of that we did not see the kitchen.
Outside of being hungry and dehydrated the course was still somewhat fun.

Beautiful course!

I really enjoyed this course. The fairways were rough, a lot of bald spots, but the greens were beautiful and fast. Tee boxes were great. Never had any issues placing tees, etc. Friendly staff. The course had some unique features which made it fun. Some water, some sand traps, but not too many. I’m a pretty new golfer & I felt like this course was challenging, but not so much so that it frustrated me into never wanting to play it. I had a lot of fun & played a decent game.

Disappointing

Has the potential to be a nice course with some interesting hole layouts. Greens have a lot of break and are fun to play. But for the most part the course was in terrible shape, specifically the fairways.
