Hot weather
Used cart

Good course for this area but I dont think I'll play it again.

Got paired up with 3 other blokes. The other two's cart kept stopping because the gps mapping was off and I think it affected one guys game because he became irate and started throwing clubs.

Course did have some pretty holes but I am not a fan of all the blind shots and bunkers. They try to take the driver out of your hand on most holes. The blind shots are dangerous and some idiot actually hit a ball that richochted off of our inside the cart.

The other problem was the greens were too shaggy and the ball was not rolling out very well. I came out wanting to shoot a good number but I left so many putts short due to those thick, soft greens.
It was fun but I'll probably never play it again because its a long ways off and I dont care for the layout.
Cheers!

Course has lots of potential - friendly staff

Challenging course but the day we played the greens were cut too short in my opinion.
The greens were a little unpredictable and I felt like I couldn’t attack the greens because nothing was sticking..
The course needs more water. The fairway should be more lush this time of year. Still a fun course with nice views. I’ll be back again when I’m in town.
I did notice a few Auburn fans out there but I guess they have to play somewhere 😎

Fun Island Course but…

It is in a retirement community so there are risks of hitting into backyards or houses. The course was wet and there are no ball washers available.
Overall I enjoy playing here. Fairly challenging especially if the wind is blowing.

Small, loud and lots of sand

I like a challenging course but they kind of went overboard with the amount of bunkers. Instead of bunkers, fix the Texas hard pan around the greens so a good approach shot can be rewarded with a good chip shot.
This course appears to be in a park with water events so lots of hollering which is distracting.
I do like the golf carts and pro shop.

Good ol Jimmy

I played this course in 34 degree weather with a couple guys. We had a good time. Looks like the greens had been sanded a week earlier but all was good.
This can be a challenging, fun course. I finally figured out how to play hole 18. I smoked a long drive with a slight cut and ended up 114 yds out. I’ve always payed up with 3 wood but you have a bigger opening than you think. Hit driver.
Go play Jimmy! Good food also

Nice course but...

Felt like I was playing a very hilly hybrid links course.
I couldn't adjust to the speed of the greens because some felt faster than others. I left a handful of birdie putts short all day.
The party 4s are long, curvy, hilly and challenging. It was super windy the day I played so it made it even tougher to hit the fairway.
I might play again but to me this course doesn't really interest me in playing here often.

I like Avery but hope for a few small changes..

They charge a pound of flesh to play there.
It's ok because it's a pretty nice course.
Avery Rqnch has oversold their players clubemberships.
What is not okay is showing up to the range an hour early to warm up for my tee time.and seeing families taking up all.the hitting areas. Why does a kid need a large bucket of balls?
I only got to hit a handful of balls 10 min before my tee time because families decide the busiest day of the week for golf is the best time to teach their brats golf.

Why can't kids practice Sunday afternoon? It's mostly foreign kids so their parents want to teach their kids golf. I get it.
Also, be quiet on the range. Nobody wants to hear you scream.at your children while teaching them. Golf is hard.
Another thing is why can't they cut back some of the tree limbs? One shouldn't have to contend with braches from a tee box.
Overall I like Avery. I'll play there again but there is a reason I dropped my membership and stopped practicing there.
It is overrun by families taking up all the range time and slowing down Pace of play.
Cheers.

Take into consideration that this is an old course

The staff is cool and when they get the new practice facility in the course will be really good. The greens just need a little work and they need to know the rough and will be good to go!

Course needs a responsible owner

I won't go into the details but when you lose golf balls in the fairway because the grass is so deep, it's in bad shape.
Course needs alot of work.
If your not going to maintain a course, sell it to someone who wants to rebuild a course.
I cannot recommend this course in this shape.

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 ColoVista Golf Club. We hope to see you again soon.

Overpriced, bad marshals, too many overhanging trees

I heard they spent millions re-vamping this course. I just do not see it.
The course is a pretty boring layout. It does have one whole that makes a square around a patch of woods but why?
A marshal jumped on us after I tapped the flagpole with my putter. The green was so muddy i was knocking mud off.
He claimed I did "significant damage " to a flagpole with my putter?
That sun of a biscuit eater hawked us the whole round and sat between us and the green a few times. I buzzed one over his head. Very unprofessional.
We were using pushcarts and they had flooded the course trying to get the grass to grow. It was so bad I almost got a pushcart stuck walking across the fairway
I still stole 3 birds from this place but I doubt we will be back.
Trim some trees please!!
You should not have to contend with tree limbs from a tee box!

Sir, your behavior that day was totally unacceptable. We had to adjust the cup, you banged the flag stick so hard on the 2nd hole. The wetness you speak of was from a severe T-storm that dropped over an inch of rain a mere 2 hours before we opened. You exchanged un-pleasantries with more than one member of our staff during your round. We do our very best to insure customer satisfaction but we are not sure we were ever going to please you on this day. Hopefully it was just a bad day. Take care.

Nice course but windy

The greens are a little bumpy and the wind is relentless.
Don’t forget to bring your bug spray! Big mosquitoes.

A little pricey for the current course conditions

They have raised the rates to $45 for this course but the quality of the course has regressed. The greens need a lot of work. Most all of the tee boxes were very lumpy.
This is a tough course because it is so hilly. You will rarely be hitting a flat lie. You have to really balance your stance.
This is a scenic course overlooking Lake Travis and lots and lots of deer everywhere.
This would be a pretty nice course if they could get the greens in shape and mow the fairway. It is deep.

Better bring your own water

No coolers on the course and the greens are bumpy. Don't expect to make alot of putts.
Not a bad course for a practice round.

Nice course but not for $50

Overall course is in great shape. Nice putting green. A few challenging holes but lots of woods. If you hit an errant tee shot, you ball is lost.
Greens were ok. 18th hole is tricky.
