Sonesta Bee Cave
About Sonesta Bee Cave
The Sonesta Bee Cave is located 20 minutes west off Austin off Highway 71 in the Hill Country Galleria, home to a collection of shops, bars and restaurants. There is no golf course onsite but there is shuttle service to the nearby Lakeway golf courses, including public Falconhead Golf Club, and the hotel does have some limited access to the private courses at the Clubs of Lakeway. The Sonesta Bee Cave features a large, outdoor courtyard pool, 10,000 square feet of meeting space and a 5,300 square foot ballroom. Lake Travis is minutes away where a marina can be accessed, and world-famous Hamilton Pool is also a short drive away. A highlight of the Sonesta Bee Cave is not only the galleria shops and restaurants but the hotel's own rooftop Meridian 98, which features cocktails and specialty plates in a lively setting that hosts live music.Facts

Nice course!
Played it twice course is scenic and fun to play. It’s a little tough and some greens need work but overall you won’t be disappointed. Staff is great!!
Expect to play a 4.5 hr round.
Hi, mjacob98. Thank you so much for the great review. We are glad you had an incredible time, and we hope to see you again soon! Thanks for choosing Falconhead Golf Club.
Terrible Day - 5+ hour round
Five hours and twenty minutes in 105 degrees with Rangers that tell you there is nothing they can do. WHAT? That is exactly you job, to make sure a 10:30 tee time does not have a 10 min wait on every hole.
Tee boxes were terrible, hard to find grass on many. Greens were good shape, fairways for the most part were good, but did have quite a few barren areas.
For $100 per round you would think they would take better care of the course and have Rangers that actually know the job description

@Falconhead Golf Club - My suggestions are to pay closer attention to where the tee markers are placed on the tees. Looked like they were hardly ever moved and if they were moved, only moved a few feet. Meant there were quite a few tee boxes that were torn up where the markers were, but the rest of the tee looked good. Also, pace of play was really slow. Would suggest marshalls do a better job of keeping groups within a hole of the group ahead. Those two things would have given it a 5 star review.

Great Hill Country style golf course!
Course was challenging enough for more experienced golfers and easy enough for average golfers. The greens were in great shape, but tricky due to the hill side shape of some of them. Still, the greens were fun to navigate once you got a good feel for the speed. I will definitely return. The staff is super friendly and very accomodating.

Austin semi private gem
Pleasantly surprised after playing many of the municipal courses around town because Falconhead has a great course layout with some very interesting holes and even a little water. A decent chipping area with bunker and a full driving range is always a plus.

Sloooooow Sunday
We showed up for our twilight tee time at 5 pm and there were no less than 3 other groups on the tee in front of us. It took just about 3 hours to play our 9 holes just before sunset. The tee boxes were mostly dirt but the course was nice otherwise, strange that the tees wernt in better condition. I would love to come back on a less busy day. Staff was very friendly.

Nice but slow green
The greens are well maintained but slow to me.I played the course for the first time during my trip to Austin. Played with a few locals and they don’t seem to think those are slow. My feeling is it’s ~9.
Some good looking drives were penalized due to the terrain. When it happened more than once, I got annoyed a little. I appreciate fairness of courses.
Overall, the course is relatively well maintained.
After checking in 40 minutes were left. I purchased small bucket of balls but ended up not being able to use it. It took so long to deliver carts to the customers before me that there wasn’t enough time left for me to go to driving range which is far away and requires a cart riding.
Starter was very busy delivering carts to customers and sending out players to the 1st tee. Sprinkler heads popped up and wetting people waiting for their carts. Overall, the starting of a round looked hectic and unorganized.
We appreciate you taking the time to review the course and rate us, baemh. We are going to pass on your feedback to the team. Thanks for visiting Falconhead Golf Club, and we hope to see you again in the future.
Over priced for pace of play and amenities
I’ve played this course a few dozen times and this time was one of the worst. This is based on the quality of the tee boxes, pace of play, and access to water.
For $100 round on a Sunday, I found it frustrating that the tee boxes were sand traps and there where others that looked much more playable. We did tee off on time, but the round took five hours and ten minutes. Lastly, for $100 round and playing in 100 degree weather, the club did not do enough to keep golfers hydrated. There were 3 water coolers on the course and one was empty in the middle of the day. There was one cart girl that we saw twice. Both times I asked her for ice in the cooler and was told to get it at the clubhouse.
Some of this is picky, but if I’m paying $100 a round, I feel these pieces are table stakes. At lease put bottle water in the coolers of your on course water supply is low.
