18th hole Photo submitted by BrandonTuckerGA on 11/13/2016
Just okay
Pace of play was BAD that day, 5hr round! 4deep on servers holes. Greens are still under recovery with some major dead spots. Nice layout and once greens recovery the course will be worth the green fees.
Bad service
Booked a tee time a week in advance like I usually do just to find out course is closed for maintenance. No notification was given and tee times were still available for this day on golf now. Drove over an hour to play and was told pretty rudely I was SOL. Course told me they were unable to offer any refund for money paid so I’m out the booking fees I paid. Out of principle this is an awful way to do business and I won’t be going back to this course.
Would wait
Lots of greens under maintenance, lots of sod ripped up. Hole 16 closed. Hole 3, par 5, turned into two different holes. One is a par 3, the other par 4. You still play 18 holes but its not the same Forest Creek.
Greens gone
Do yourself a favor and play elsewhere. The greens are completely gone. Cannot believe they are charging what they are for this course currently. Shame cause it used to be one of my favs.
Nice Track
Really liked the layout. Greens are hurting BUT management is trying to correct the situation. Everything else made for a good day.
First timer
Fun course. I can tell this place used to be amazing in its early years. Fun, challenging layout. Back 9 definitely plays longer and harder than the front, so get your birdies early. Alot of doglegs, and a couple of holes where you can't hit driver because of the fairway runout. Fairways were good. The sides had a couple bare spots. Front nine greens were pretty decent, but the back are having some trouble, but most are puttable, except for 1, which was pretty brutal. Tee boxes were ok. I can't fraction the stars, but condition would be more like a 3.6. And considering Austin courses right now, 3.6 is pretty good. Find a weekday to go play Forest Creek, because it's not worth what they're asking for on the weekends.
Tough times
I've been playing Forest Creek for 25+ years and think yesterday is the worst condition I have ever seen the course (other than the ice storm a couple of years ago). To be clear, I saw the grounds crew all over the place. . . they are very obviously trying to address the problems but they have major issues. Should be paying about $25 to play right now. My favorite track in Central Texas. Really hoping they can recover but really irritated that they are not adjusting the pricing to reflect. Pace of play was not great either.
Fun, interesting course
Played for the first time with my sons. We loved it. Staff was courteous, friendly and efficient. It was a busy Saturday, but we teed off exactly on time and finished in 4-1/2 hours. Never waited to hit a shot. Some greens were a little rough but overall the course was in good shape. Nice variety of hole layouts and challenges. We will play it again.
Love Layout, Greens need Help
Always enjoy the layout presented at Forest Creek, was dissapointed to see the greens in such poor shape. IN hte past FC has painted the greens during winter and not sure if that is killing the grass but in a lot of areas it was just now painted dirt or sandy dirt/grass. The clear out and grass cutting done in "rough" areas was a welcomed update.
Enjoyable and a good value
Pros: price was reasonable and even included a free dog, free beer and free small bucket. The staff in the pro shop was very nice, the snack bar not so much. Driving range is OK but we had to hit off mats. Fairways were good for this time of year. The greens are not great but they putted pretty true. It just looks like they are struggling to keep the greens healthy. There are some bald spots here and there. Overall, I don't think the greens were a serious drawback unless you are picky. Overall, we had a very enjoyable experience, well worth the green fee. This is an interesting track and some holes are quirky but fun. Recommended.
Great Layout!
Fun layout, course was in good shape, overall an enjoyable experience!
Greens are rough
Too much money for the conditions. Greene were in bad shape, lots of dead spots and pained dirt. Need to lower prices or get the course back in good shape.
Good course
Greens need help. A lot of areas need repair. Overall a good course. Played easily in 4 hours.
Thoroughly disappointed in the green condition at this time. Price way out of line to current course condition. I’ll give them a long break to get it together
The greens were disappointing, was expecting better
Overall my two comments are the Pace of Play was a little slow, we approached 5 hrs. Second were the inconsistences in the Greens were not good. Each green was either Fast or Slow, Bumpy or Smooth, and you had to deal with one of those four combinations. I know with the winter we had some issues, which are inevitable, but this was pretty bad. I know they will get the Greens in good shape in a month or so, but I expected better.
