awful conditions

I used to play this course quite often and really enjoyed it. Finally, had chance to play it again and was so disappointed. They was absolutely no grass on the greens, It was just plain dirt. Even the grass in the fairway was more like hardpan. Was so disappointed. There was also so mention of the conditions when I booked on line, Was a waste of time and money playing this course. Won't be back here for a while. What happened???

Fun and Challenging Course, Rough Greens

The course is both fun and challenging, but the greens continue to be an issue. Best advise I can give is to set up temporary greens wherever possible and put some money into the main greens to get them back into shape. With the hot months of summer coming, it won't get better unless a lot of attention is given to the greens.

Terrible condition

I have played this course several times and have never seen it in this poor condition. Several of the greens are nearly bare of any grass and the fairways have little grass on them as well. There are many courses in the area that are in good condition but this is not one of them. It is shocking that they let this course get in this condition.

Cute course, ugly greens

Challenging course which rewards accuracy over distance. Fairways were a little dry and thus the ball would roll for days Greens were in tough shape.

Delayed ; yet, worth the wait!

Lightning delayed our T-off…. Yet, owner Rick Howe was more than generous with a cup of coffee and plenty of enjoyable stories.
The course layout is challenging, and enjoyable reflecting the hill country of Texas.
Once the greens come back from winter, the course will be an even better experience and bang for the buck.

Great value and a fun, challenging course

I think this is one of the best kept secrets in the Hill Country. If we actually get some rain, then this will easily be the best value out there. Everyone does need to understand that conditions arent going to be great in a transitional time of the year or during a drought. If you catch it at the right time, you wont be disappointed.

Awesome course!

Greens obviously took a hit from the freeze so they were a bit chewed. But still rolled great. Layout is really fun and different.it’s tight ,strategic and a little quirky on some holes. But loved what they did with the space. Definitely hard to know where to hit your first time out there. But really fun. Truly magical with all the blue bonnets out lining the fairways. They do let out large groups though. 7 person bachelor party we saw at 8 when we were putting at 2 ended up being stuck behind them at 17 and 18 somehow. Must have been over 7 hour round for them lol. 6some behind us but were local and all had their own carts. They were just as quick as the 3 of us so not bad. Looks like slow groups let everyone play through. Staff was awesome. Range was decent was really happy to see it was matless . Cant wait to go back when the greens get nicer. Definitely bring a range finder. The par 5 surrounded by red rocks and blue bonnets truly felt like a dream

Seen better days

Unfortunately the greens are in terrible shape. Ive seen this course in fantastic shape but it will take a while to recover. The pace was 5 hours plus.
