Avery Ranch Golf Club

Our group plays this course often. Unfortunately, in our most recent round, our fourth player couldn't attend. However, we were charged a full rate for that no-show player. Not cool.
Avery Ranch has always pushed the limits of daily fee values while not always providing top end conditions or pace of play. It's in a convenient location so maybe those things can change for the future??
We'll be playing somewhere else for our next round.

For the money, you can find a better course, better carts and better management.

The green speeds were inconsistent on just about every hole. The front nine play was very slow, thankful 4 some in front of us didn't play back nine.

For $80 on a Wednesday at 1130, I would expect the greens to be in much better condition. Lay out was of course was fun, very nicely maintained after ice storm, fairways and approach cuts were clean and healthy, bunkers played nicely but I will definitely play again at a cheaper price now that I know what it has to offer.

Love this course but currently the greens are in bad shape.

The pace is horrendous. After 2:45 we had finished the front nine. After 4 hours we left after hole 14. The greens were in terrible shape and the puts would bounce up and down and everywhere.

My only gripes were they had a fire and so they lost a lot of golf carts and when I called to verify my tee time they said they were running late but didn’t tell me it was be cause they didn’t have a cart for us, then we only saw the cart girl once but other than that the course was amazing and in great shape. Overall still a great experience and they did their best to accommodate everyone

This course consistently has pace of play issues. Maybe because people pay some of the highest green fees in the area (for a public course that is) they feel they need to maximize the time spent on the course. I’ve had to abandon rounds here because after 4.5 hrs I’m waiting on hole 14 or 15 to tee off. Disrupts your rhythm as well.

Also their peak time green fees are exorbitant. Not worth it. Go elsewhere.

I have been wanting to play this course for a long time.. but was very disappointed in my experience.

Greens weren’t maintained properly prior, so they had new sod and sand patches (big areas) on multiple greens. The sand traps weren’t consistent either. Some were good, others were rocky or hard.

Worst part was the entire back 9, we had to wait 15-20 minutes at each tee box, due to 1 slow team 3 groups ahead of me. We had as many as 4 groups stacked up on one tee box multiple times. The marshal was aware it was happening and still did nothing to keep the pace of play at a decent flow. Not impressed at all.

I will give this course another shot in the future, in hopes that this wasn’t how it is all of the time.

A lot of bad tee boxes... Bunkers were terrible.. But the greens were the worst I've seen. 470$ for 4 ppl. 70$ your done old hotdogs n club sandwiches.. Overall, gotta be the worst golf experience in Austin.

Great layout. Greens were really slow having recently been verticut. Bunkers were bad and several tee box's were closed or heavily sanded. Saw bev cart once and only one person working in restaurant. You'd think with food and drink margins they'd resource those areas more.

Had a 3 pm tee time, got there at 2. Waited at the range until 2:35 for practice balls to be brought out, didn’t swing a club until then. Not open bay to hit from, then the putting green was closed. We begin the round at 3:07 because the group in front of us was in awe that they were on a golf course. I can deal with all of that. What I cannot condone is that the next 3 hours produced 8 played holes of golf. No Marshall telling people to speed up. Group in front of us hitting multiple balls. This is why I don’t play Avery Ranch.

Course is in great condition
Greens are great
Pace of play was almost five hours. People in front of us were talking instead of playing when the green was clear. No Marshall on the course.
