Just Don't

This is the worst golf course I've ever played on. The greens have crabgrass all over them and you can't tell what's the fairway or rough. Don't waste your time here.

Better Management

This course needs to be maintenanced properly before it just goes bad. The greens are in the worse condition and this course use to be a good course. What happened?

Blackhawk

The layout of the course was good and it has potential to be a nice course. Unfortunately the fairways and greens were in very poor condition and the course looked neglected.. However, it was not expensive and the pace of play good so all things considered i enjojed my day out.

Black Hawk

I like this course because it’s laid back and 5miles from my house. My only complaint is its very wet around the greeens and the fairways need some work. The price should be 30.00 all day everyday for the shape the course is in. FYI no sand bunkers.

Greens getting better!

Greens slowly improving. Still some rough patches on some, weeds on others, but these are as good as they’ve looked for 3 years and you can tell they’re improving, keep going y’all!

Down Bad

This course is in trouble if they don’t make some changes soon. It is similar to playing in a cow pasture.

Solid for the price

If you’re a beginner to intermediate player this can be an OK place to get some practice in. I like the course, but like a lot of places around area the greens are either in poor condition or just OK.

Nice staff and good pace of play. Good place if paying for a low price hot deal

Probably the worst in Austin area

I can’t believe they charge $50 for this. all 20 greens (18 course +2 practice) are sand traps instead of greens. Also, greens have all sorts of weeds growing up through them. Can’t tell what is fairway or rough from the tee box. Staff was nice, but this course should be shutdown for repairs. Driving range was in poor condition as well.

What a goat track!

Staff is rude. No kitchen staff. Horrible course. Worst greens I've ever seen. $60 a round.

Let's see how long the course survives

Blackhawk has gotten worse and worse over the years. They don't even have drinking water on the course anymore. I'd be shocked if this course is around much longer.

Not worth going

This was a poorly maintained course with bad management and customer service. They messed up my reservation (even though I had a written confirmation) with no apology and acted like I was in the wrong. The pace of play was terribly mismanaged (we were waiting 15 minutes on every hole) and the staff weren’t helpful or even particularly polite. despite having paid for 18 holes we quit after 9 because conditions were so unpleasant.
