Worth the Drive & Time

This is the best little 9-holer in Texas, hands down and without competition. The clubhouse, food trucks, and store are better than some fancy clubs. The driving range has a beautiful backdrop. The fairways were actually green and well-maintained. The greens were 7/10; the ball rolled nicely, with some bumps. Most of the tee boxes were good; 1-2 were sandy. While it is a 9-hole course, I played 18 and enjoyed the flow. The Saturday morning I played, they were super busy, but I have never felt the players were pretentious. If I kept up with the pace of play, then I didn't feel rushed. What a jewel. Honestly, it was the first time I ever truly thought about becoming a member. (Note, consider the course rating...this isn't Augusta, but it is a fabulous course for practice and sharpening skills.)

First Time Playing

Not worth the drive if you don’t already live out in this area. Guys that work there don’t care about much. I waited 50 minutes past my tee time for a cart, got skipped over by a party of 5 that had a tee time 15 minutes after me. I was playing solo. Greens were absolute garbage. Tee boxes were abysmal. A few nice holes. The range is right on top of the first hole and runs into hole 6 or 7. There were range balls ALL OVER the fairway of that hole. Pay the extra money and play somewhere else if you’re serious about the game. This place is a joke.

Point Venture

Greens and fairways are in terrible condition. Possibly water restrictions have recently been put in place?

Fun Course to play

The course is laid out well and fun to play. The Greens were in bad shape and he fairways had very little grass. Should be good with a little bit of rain and sun.

Weekend Tournaments?

A few of the times I have played it is like the pace of play is good for 9 holes then drastically slows down for the following 9. I don't know if there are tournaments that integrated during the day or what. Makes it very slow to finish a round. It did not use to be this way a few years ago so I am not sure what has changed.

Good local course

I really enjoy this nine hole course specially just minutes from my home but the greens need improvement. Good amenities including driving range and practise putting green. Will play here again.

Scenic, Challenging and well maintained

Crystal Falls is an exceptional public golf course with scenic views and some very challenging Tee boxes. It is well maintained and the staff has always been friendly and professional. I would have to say that the food from the on-site restaurant was a bit of a disappointment. But I don’t play golf anticipating getting a good snack or lunch. I highly recommend Crystal Falls golf course.
