Crystal Falls Golf Course
About
While it hasn't received as much publicity as the other Hill Country tracks since it opened around 1990, Crystal Falls Golf Club is definitely worthy of praise. Highlighted by one of the greatest par 3s in Texas and some outstanding topography, this is one of those courses you'll want to play at least once, if only for the views. In addition to the scenery, the main thing everyone talks about here is the severely sloping fairways that provide problems for those who hit the ball left-to-right. The famous par 3 in question is the 192-yard 11th, featuring a phenomenal view and a 200-yard drop to the green. Club selection is a crap-shoot at best, and the green is surrounded by mounds.

11th Hole at Crystal Falls Golf Course, Leander TX Photo submitted by wshowers on 12/02/2012
Course upkeep is needs help
Layout of the course is great and challenging but the conditions very spotty. Greens seem to have more weeds than grass. Thought I was playing plinko on the greens.
A Bit Disappointed…
This round was a bit disappointing. While the layout of the course is fantastic, with many scenic and challenging holes, the course itself was in rough shape.
Greens had recently been punched and sanded (no mention of this on GolfNow or at the pro shop on check in), and there were significant areas of the course marked “ground under repair).
I have played this course before, and this time around it was definitely in below par shape. Hopefully they can get it sorted, as this would truly be an excellent course when in top condition.
Plinko Greens
Friendly staff and a great layout. Greens were just a huge letdown. Patchy and sandy at best, but for $45 hard to complain too much.
sub par greens
hilly course with lots of character. Conditions were fine except for the greens. We've had more rain the last couple months than usual so I was hoping the bermuda greens would be in nice shape but was sadly very disappointed. Lots of bare spots and weeds on the putting surface and very dry and slow. Not sure how to explain but something not right. I won't make the drive til the greens are re-done.
First time player
Overall course was in good shape. Greens were punched and sanded, and greens looked tired. Let's give the greens 2 weeks.
Top 5 city courses I’ve played!
Even though we booked a couple days after they aerated the greens we loved the course. Scenery is amazing, entire course is very well maintained, and even with how booked up they were, pace of play was great. Definetly plan to come back in the near future.
Great course
Only issue was pace of play, saw the marshal 4 times in front 9 and not once in the back. A group 4 holes ahead of me holding up a line of groups sitting around waiting, resulting in me getting outta there after 5 hours of playing 13 holes.
Group Outing
I set up a group outing with Bradley at Crystal Falls for my bachelor party, it was a huge success. Bradley was very easy to work with and was able to accommodate my large group, we had 16 total golfers. The course was pretty difficult for your average golfer, but still a great time. I would highly recommend looking into Crystal Falls for your golf round, I will definitely be back.
Good track. Tricky.
Overall a nice track. It’s southern US golf and plays like it. Greens are nice but were. bit slow. Water throughout. Good elevation changes with some blind shots. Staff was super friendly and pace of play was good. There were a couple tee boxes that needed work, but overall I would play again.
Tricky Beautiful Layout
You better be able to hit it straight so if not bring plenty of golf balls. I only lost one, so playing well definitely made it more fun but a must play scenic course!
Fast greens
Love the course as it challenges all types of shots. Greens were running fast and true. Will def play again.
Great from start to finish
Entire staff golf and restaurant/bar staff friendly and professional. Course was in great condition. Pace of play acceptable for daily fee course.
Awesome course
Challenging for me but overall beautiful course love it
Great course
Exceptional course. Very nice greens and fairways.
Need to do some work on the cart path in areas due to significant concrete breakup.
Good and drink is also significantly more expensive then many other courses.
