Excellent Golf

Great conditions. even with freshly sanded greens. Not overly challenging, and fair. A consistent layout that allows for a good rhythm, thoughtful club selection, and good scores. The pace of the greens is great, bring your lag game. A really worthwhile experience.

Nice course

Overall nice course for the value. Some greens seemed over watered TBH, but still is good shape. A few had patches of turf replaced that were growing back.
Fairly good pace of play.
Most prices on all courses have gone up, this one is no exception, but at least not as much as Star Ranch has.

We had a nice Thanksgiving playing this course. The greens were in good shape and the layout is somewhat challenging.

Nice course for the price

This course is challenging but fun. It was in good shape, although it was cart path only the day we played, which slowed the pace a bit. It was a good value for the price and I would definitely play it again.

Best Public GC in Austin area

Considering the extreme heat and lack of rain this summer, Forest Creek fairways and greens are in excellent shape - best conditions in the Austin area for a public course, hands down! Add to that the friendliness of the staff who make you feel invited and welcome, a reasonable weekend green fee that includes very good range/balls and a small lunch, and a 4 1/2 hr pace of play, this is the best public weekend golf experience I've had in a long time. Well done FC!
