Fun course

This was the first course I played in Ireland - coming over from Texas. It was a fun track, in good condition and played with a member that was friendly and helpful. Course layout was straightforward - good course to start my trip and get used to local conditions. The rough was not as penal nor were there as many blind shots as I saw on other links courses in the area. The price was reasonable and very much enjoyed the round. Definitely will play again if/when I return to Dublin.

Great round, fun course

I have been traveling through area lately and was able to get in early for an appointment in the area to give this course a go for the first time. I found the course to be a great layout that is different in that it plays links style. It's pretty wide open without blind shots, but I was also helped by being paired with some folks that knew the subtleties of the course. The course was in great shape on a windy, hot day. The bunkers weren't great (hard sand, needs raking), but luckily I didn't spend much time in them. Pace of play bogged down a bit at times, but it was Sunday morning and course was busy. This is a fun course and hope to play it again soon.

Fun round…

I’ve played this course several times, but none within past few years. Course was in excellent shape, getting a little bare in spots most likely due to lack of rain in area. Greens were in good shape, but were running a little slow from what I remembered. The range was closed on the day I played - so had to figure things out on course that usually get done in warmup. Value was excellent as I booked tee time at last minute when I found a GN hot deal.

Fun Course

Hidden Falls is a bit off the beaten track in Marble Falls, but started playing this summer due to cost and accessibility for last minute tee times. My son and I decided to play there on New Year's Day and was able to book a round given the many cancellations due to the cold and windy weather. Course was in good shape and with a mostly open course, we were able to get around in a little over 3 hours. It's a fun course, but be aware of lots of blind holes with extreme dog legs, so local knowledge matters and/or pay close attention to scorecard layout off the tee.

Fun Course

The course is a fun layout overall. Tee boxes and fairways are in moderate condition, but well maintained. The course is not terribly long, but has several holes that require precision in working around doglegs, some blind. Greens are well maintained, but moderate speed. Prices are very reasonable and at the times that I play, the course is fairly open, so pace of play moves quickly.

Fun course!

Booked on special on GolfNow. Course was in great shape. There are definitely a few holes where you have to pay attention to subtleties of the layout, others where you can cut loose. My son and I signed up, and was paired with a couple of nice guys for an enjoyable round. Course was generally clear, had to let a few singles play through and did catch a slow foursome on the last few holes, but not too bad overall.

Fun track in great shape

Haven't played here in years, but found course in great shape. Early Friday morning tee time and course pretty open with more folks on course by mid-morning. Greens in good shape, but fairly slow.
