#10, Par 4 Photo submitted by papajobear on 04/30/2013
With the recent rain the fairways are in great shape and they are mowing on a regular basis. The greens are coming around. You can play a round in under 3 hours. The scenery is outstanding with views of lake Travis on many of the holes. You’ll encounter deer the entire round. Take the drive to Lago Vista and renjoy a relaxing day playing golf
Absolute GARBAGE
This is not a golf course. It is an unknown field without personality.

Work in progress
We played this course about a year ago, it was in ruff condition. The owner(s) have been reworking the course and it is greatly improved, much better than we expected. There is lots more work to be done on this course, but we will be back. This course has great elevation changes, makes it challenging.

Plenty of Potential with Incredible Views!
This course is going through a rework and has a lot of potential, it has fantastic views, the course has a great variety of some quite challenging holes and then some holes that keep you inspired to keep coming back to the sport that we love.
The greens were being reseeded, so they weren't in great condition - but the work is clearly underway to get this course beautified.
The staff were amazing, super friendly and made the check in process easy and quick. The carts was in great condition too.
I will definitely be coming back to play again, and as this course continues to improve, my golf will follow suit.

Course needs a ton of work
Tee boxes were in awful condition. Fairways were fine. 4 of 18 greens had green grass. There was no sand in the sand boxes, tee boxes were extremely uneven. I don’t know who’s running the show their but they should be fired
Thank you for reviewing the course. 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 Lake Travis Country Club. We hope to see you again soon.
Thank you for taking the time to leave us a review. We are sorry to see that your overall experience was anything short of 5 stars, but we hope you'll give us another try in the near future. Thanks for choosing Lake Travis Country Club.
Deplorable conditions
Course condition is deplorable. Hardly any grass in the fairways, and the greens are a mixed bag of grassless and partly covered. Clearly course is not being maintained to any reasonable degree. I was a member back in mid-80s and course was much better, as was the clubhouse. Now greens are unputtable and fairways are basically dirt. Only plus is that many sand traps have been taken over by grass, either by intent or just lack of attention. Barely even worth the $25 total green fee per person, especially considering the very long drive from Austin.
Thank you for reviewing the course. Your feedback about the conditions are important to us. We are working to get everything up to par. The current condition is by no means the standard we strive to achieve. We will continue to work towards an excellent experience by using your comments for guidance. Thank you for playing and we hope to see you again soon.
Great potential
The course is in bad shape, but i knew that before hand. I had a great time making the best of it. The lay out is fantastic. Some really fun holes with great views. Give it some time and we'll see how it progresses. The club house which is unaffiliated is first class. We had a great day. Thanks.

Formerly a Good Course - no greens
Road to get golf cart and pay is a potholed nightmare.
The greens are mostly not there - just black patches of over seeded land.
Sand traps are over grown with grass.
The course should not cost as much as it does to play. Blackhawk is in better shape and can be found much cheaper than Lake Travis. This course has a long way to go to regain even a modicum of the glory it held when it was known as Highlands.
The people who worked there were very nice.
Thank you for reviewing the course. Your feedback about the course is important to us. We are working to get everything up to par as the current conditions are by no means the standard we strive to achieve. We are going to escalate your feedback to our team so we can make improvements before your next round. Thank you for playing Lake Travis Country Club. We hope to see you again soon.
Greens need lots of work
I can tell new owners are trying, but still need lots of work. Weird setup not at the main building, they have to do something better than driving down to the maintenance shed.
We appreciate you taking the time to review the course and rate us. We are going to pass on your feedback to the teams in charge so they can work to make changes. Thanks for visiting Lake Travis Country Club. We hope to see you again in the future.
We would love to hear more about your 4-star experience on our course. Please tell us what we can do to earn that last star, and thanks for golfing at Lake Travis Country Club!
A Gem in the Texas Hill Country that is a work in progress
I have played this course a number of times now and have seen the progress the new ownership has made to the condition of the course. Since the change they are bringing this course back to life. People need to be more flexible, it takes time to accomplish this type of undertaking. The value and pace of play is amazing.
I look forward to playing here again
Thank you for taking the time to review us. Your feedback is valuable, and we look forward to delivering you excellent service again soon. Lake Travis Country Club thanks you!
Horrible greens
The greens were some of the worst I’ve ever seen. Sand and mud holes on every green. Made putting impossible

This course was not open!
Extremely disappointed with this app - made reservation confirmed reservation - woke up extremely early drove an hour and this course does not exist. Has been closed for 2 years! It ruined our entire day! How can this still be an option on the site? Do not use this site!
Hello, thank you for taking the time to leave us a review. We're so sorry to hear about the confusion you experienced while trying to find our course. We are not closed down, but we are currently working out of a temporary clubhouse near the course. We apologize for any confusion this might have caused. The address to this clubhouse is listed correctly both on GolfNow and Google. We hope you reconsider returning for another round soon, thanks for choosing Lake Travis Golf Course.
Fun track
The overall condition is sub par, the layout is challenging and fun. When the greens and fairways get updated it will be a great little track. The staff was super friendly and very honest about the condition of the course. I was in town for a couple of days and wanted to get a a round in. I was able to play 18 holes in under 3 hours. For the money it is a great value and I shot an 88 so I’m happy. P.S. the scenery and wildlife was an added bonus! Will play again when I come this way.
Hi, Tom. Let us first say that we are so glad to hear you enjoyed your visit. We also want to thank you for your honest and constructive criticism of the course. We are going to escalate your review to our team in charge and do everything we can to improve before your next game. Thank you for visiting and playing at Lake Travis Country Club. We hope to see you again soon!
Great course architecture but poor course conditions
Great course architecture but poor course conditions We had a lot of laughs at the surprisingly poor course conditions. Seems like a 1 man show maintaining the course. Our threesome paid for 18 holes but we left after playing the first 9 holes. With about $4M invested in improvements this track will be a gem. Until then pass on playing it unless you’re a masochist.
