Don’t play here if it’s been raining
Lately the greens have been terrible; almost unreadable. I paid $35 on a hot deal and it wasn’t even worth $20. I understand it’s a 9-hole and normally in decent shape, but it seems like it’s only gotten worse the last few times I’ve played here. Wouldn’t pay more than $20 to play here if it’s like this.
Worse course I’ve ever played.
The greens were like oil slicks, there was a big instructional group in front of us that was holding a clinic on each green, and the grass was horrible. Do not waste your time here.
Thank you for reviewing the course. Let us first start by apologizing for the poor experience you had during your visit. The current condition is by no means the standard we strive to achieve, and we are working towards getting things up to par. Thank you for playing Harvey Penick Golf Campus. We hope to see you again soon.
Terrible Track and greens
Friendly staff. However, I wouldn’t pay more than 20 dollars to play this course again. Rough and muddy greens, the fairways play more like rough and VERY short holes. I had to play from the tips just to make the round interesting. Also cart fees? Really....?

Don't expect much
Don't expect much and it'll be all good. Waited a long time for a cart and we were late for our tee time. Greens are rough. Rest of the course is greening up. Played a quick 9.

Ed's report
Course was in good clean shape. Greens need a lot of work. Oversanded and bumpy.

Slow
It took 4 hours to play 9 holes, I played there because it’s usually a quick play. But per usual all the hipsters in Austin have ruined that too with their dumb foot golf. Please whoever invented that. Kill yourself. Overall the greens are trash and sandy dirt not grass. If someone took care of this place, and kicked off all the hipsters it might be fine.
The worst
Greens were like putting on a stone parking lot. No signage at any hole, except for stupid foot golf. Fairways were weedways. Charged $30 with a cart for nine holes. I expected a nice course and got crap.

Course in terrible condition
This course is a mess unfortunately. The layout is confusing (there are flags everywhere thanks to the “foot golf” holes all over the place) the greens are more like browns and have grass tufts everywhere. Really short holes as well, mostly par 3s. Decent value for 30 bucks for 9 holes, but you’ll be getting what you pay for.

Friendly Staff, Poor Course
The staff is the best thing going for this course. The driving range looked pretty decent, but when it comes to the course....it’s not a golf course. Understandable it’s late March and the grass isn’t thriving as much as it should be. But in and around the tee boxes is a ton of large broad leaf weeds. The fairways on the par 4 are poorly maintained. The tee boxes had a lot of rocks in them because the cart paths are mainly all gravel. The greens are not golf greens. Extremely disappointed as the putting greens are mainly sand that is dyed green or hard compacted dirt. There is only about 5% living bentgrass/Bermuda on the greens. It doesn’t seem like this course has much of a budget, which is unfortunate. It could be a great short course to work on iron shots. But it is so poorly maintained. The foot golf is intermingled with the actual golf which can turn dangerous, although our group did not encounter any foot golfers. I don’t live in the Austin area, but I just cannot recommend it to others.

Confusing
Greens were horrible and the disk golf course overlaying the golf holes was confusing. The property has great potential but was like playing in your yard with over rolled compressed greens but if you only have time for nine it is still golf.

Harvey Penick Rolling in His Grave
This is a pathetic little 9 hole short course that was in poor condition. Layout was confusing with few tee markers. Fairways were a goat pasture. Perhaps the greens were being reseeded this day.
Both Hancock Park Golf Course and Lockhart State Park Golf Course are far better 9 hole courses, and even Butler Park Pitch and Putt is nicer.
The gasoline powered Yamaha Golf Cart was very nice.

Harvey Penick golf
Soccer players (foot golf??) were playing along side golfers. It is a ridiculous set up and a hazard. The course is in bad shape. Many of my lies were on dirt or poor grass. I am not a beginner. Too many people were on the course and it was very backed up.

Fun 9 hole
Fun course. Decent conditions. Great price value. Way too many people on the course playing soccer golf. At one hole we had three parties playing golf and two parties playing soccer golf. There was 12 total people trying to play through on a hole. Total mess. Once we skipped a hole and passed the soccer golf groups, we enjoyed our back 9. Need to manage all the groups & times better.
