Morris Williams Golf Course

So, after not playing Morris Williams, a City of Austin municipal course, for just over ten years, I found a reasonable price and a convenient tee time, and decided to enjoy a nostalgic trip back into my golfing past. I made an early morning tee time on a weekday through GolfNow, and expected to be paired with others. But, when I arrived at the course, I learned that I was playing solo, which suited me. The weather was perfect, and the greens and fairways seemed to be in much better condition than I remembered from my distant past. I only encountered one foursome during the entire round, and they quickly waved me through - I finished 18 holes in 3 hours and 7 minutes, which was ideal. Why did I stay away for ten years? I'll be back soon....

Enjoyed the perfect weather and an enjoyable round.

I really like playing this course. Its in great condition.

I’ve played here before and love it. Never had issues. However this weekend the pro shop employee ruined the experience for multiple groups. Normally staff is super layed back and lets people have fun and enjoy. This time the lady that was checking people in made the experience a bummer for multiple folks. Forcing buddies to put an extra bag on the cart that we’re sharing clubs, making a random woman ride with a stranger in a 4 some despite having 30+ carts outside for a 4pm tee time, rude to people checking in and out. Just all around poor customer service from a course I normally love to play.

Course in great shape, great value for your money and tee times not overcrowded. Food is great with great selection of beer

Very good layout and challenging. Manicured fairways and the greens ran well. Need water stations on the course. Beverage cart came around occassionally. .

Having played here for 50+ years, MW is as good as it has ever been. And it only costs $18 to walk! There is grass from fence line to fence line, with no hard pan in play. Greens are a little slow, but it's in as good a shape as i've ever seen it. 10 minutes from downtown; the view of the skyline from #5 is awesome.

19th hole has good food, too.

This is the first time I have played Morris Williams since the course has been redeveloped. Chose the course for the first ever round of golf for a new player. Played mid-day on a hot day because we didn’t expect to see too many people. From the much improved practice putting green expansion to the green and bunker improvements from my last visit the course was even friendlier than before. We were there because it is fairly wide open and errant shots don’t mean a lost ball or a long search. Even with a new golfer we only had to let one group through, never felt any additional pace pressure and finished in under 4 hours. Staff was very friendly. Margarita for the back nine was welcome and new golfer had such a good time he was trying to schedule our next round in the car on the way home.
