Avery Ranch Golf Club
About
Avery Ranch Golf Club is a part of the Avery Ranch residential community, 20 minutes northwest of town, that was carved and blasted out of the rocky ranchlands along Brushy Creek. This historically significant area was once home to Indians and robbers, who were drawn to this beautiful setting thick with dense oaks, meandering creeks and abundant wildlife.
The golf course was designed by former Jack Nicklaus designer Andy Raugust, who literally had to use dynamite to blast rock out of the landscape for five holes. His design features two potential signature holes on each nine.
No. 7 doglegs left, and features two scenic carries -- one off the tee and another on the approach. The hole is rather short, providing the chance to be in good position for this most spectacular approach shot on the golf course. Staring at the multi-level green, you’ll notice the huge rock wall fronting the green, the large bunker to the right, and the native cacti to the rear.
Avery Ranch Golf Club's 13th is sure to be considered one of the best par 3s in the Austin area. The 161-yard par 3 features water on the right side, impressive, towering oaks in the back, and a unique ridge of rocks to the right of the green. The reasonable distance makes it a fun challenge, and the hole features a bail out area in case of a miss

Overall great course, greens were punched recently but they didn’t putt too bad. Very interesting layout
A tricky layout yet rewarding
Playing this course the second time around, enjoying the wonderful views and the speed/conditions of the greens. Some blind tee shots although when you know where to hit it you’re set.(When driver is over 300yds you shall be careful) on landing areas. Tee box conditions could have been better hence the 4 star review. Don’t hit it off into the rough as you may find rocks in the rubbish. Otherwise I will be back to play again!
Enjoyed the round. Great course.
Really enjoyed playing Avery ranch today. Great staff course was in nice shape. Fun day.

Great Course for Late Day Tee Time
The course is in great shape. I played after all the rain and 9 was closed but I love this course. The green fee after 4 was very reasonable at $45. I played solo and finished in 3 hours. I got to work on my game and was very relaxing. The pro shop could have been more friendly but I am sure he wanted to leave for the day. Highly recommend.

Won’t come back.
I show up 1 hr early to check in and grab a bite at the club house. And im told I have to partner up with someone on a cart. Im alone and 4hrs with a stranger in a cart ruins a round. So they tell me its $20 on top of the $18 already they charged for a cart. So I say fine whatever. I go order some food, cook has to be reminded twice to start cooking my order. 40 mins later I get my food that they said it would take 10 mins. So I eat fast and go to tee off. Im waiting for my group to go and I ask 2 other guys, “Hey did you pay $20 for a cart since you are single. Both said no! The single in my group also didn’t pay. Course was good, I had fun. But when they nickle and dime like that when there were 10-15 unused carts when I started and when I got back. Doesn’t sit well with me. Went to play there because it was the only course in the Magnolia Membership, glad I went. I wont be getting that membership. $20 cost them $400 a month and $1500 initiation fee.
A good Tuesday
I've played here before and will play here again, always a fun, challenging day. Golf shop staff always professional and pleasant. F&B gals behind the bar, on point and Brook makes a mean spicy bloody mary! Overall a good place to play. In my personal opinion there are 2-3 holes i don't like/understand but have changed my approach to these holes to try and score better.

Worth it!
Great course all around! Fairways and greens were nice! One of the more challenging courses I’ve played lately. Will definitely play again.
