Grey Rock Golf Club

Had a tee time for 11:50, course apparently had a tournament the same day and we didn’t actually tee off until around 12:50. Did not get any notification or heads up for a late start whatsoever. Course was in decent shape yet on many holes the greens had elevated patches of grass.

This was the first time I had played the course and it was a blast, course is in great shape. Very cool atmosphere at the property and clubhouse/surrounding area is beautiful!

Played a 4 hour round in a friendly foursome. Course was in good shape for winter play. Good value for the money this time of year. Will do it again.

Enjoyed course fast greens and also held shots well. Would imagine it would be pure in spring summer excited to get back and play again

The fairways and greens need to grow out a little more. The layout is very good. Good practice area. Would play again once the fairways grow in.

I enjoyed playing this course but it wasn’t in the greatest condition in my opinion. The staff was extremely friendly and accommodating however and I would totally recommend it to a friend to play. I would like to see nicer fairways is m biggest complaint.

The woman in the pro shop was slow. The ladies behind the bar were cute, but they paid more attention to their phone than the customers

Course is in good conditions considering winter. Greens were fast bunkers good and staff was friendly played in about 3 1/2 hours no one in front of us. Highly recommend

70 degrees, sunshine, no wind, tees and greens in great winter condition, good foursome; nuff said. Let’s do it again.

Greens were brutally fast with some diabolical pin placements. Don’t be above the hole or short-sided on chip shots.

Greens held full shots well if struck properly.

Course played pretty short from the blue tees with ample roll out on fairways.

Gorgeous day for golf with an awesome pace of play.

I’ll be back. The City of Austin should be proud to have this great course in its lineup.

This is a nice golf venue. If you haven’t played the course you should give it a go!s

Excellent track, city of austin has made many improvements. Bunkers are finally in perfect shape. Greens and fairways are nice considering the winter season.

Its a must play!! 9.5 out of 10.

Food was perfect.

Staff was very friendly and helpful. Course in very good condition and pace of play excellent. Played here before and always well run.

Been a few years since I last played Grey Rock. In fact, I don't think I've previously reviewed the course here on GolfAdvisor. Ironically, it's the closest course to my (current) house. Well, I had the opportunity recently as part of a tournament.

For this mid November cold and rainy day, I found the course to be in really great shape overall. But, I also noticed a couple of missteps by the course and/or staff.

I must say I really do like the grounds around the club house. I like how the high rock wall separates the area from the parking lot. You just get a nice, calm feeling once you're walking up to the club house while passing the putting greens. And the driving range is just behind the club house yet not in the way nor are you distracted by others while warming up. Warming up off of mats instead of real grass is a problem though. No one likes it ... no one except the course maintenance folks. Overall, it's really a great use of the land. And the landscape is very well done .. grasses, trees, up-lights, brush/bushes, etc. Anytime I think "I could live here" ... well, that's a sign that you're doing something right.

Being a tournament, I didn't get to directly interact with the course staff on this particular occasion. With regard to the carts, we all noticed the lack of towels. On the majority of courses I've played, a towel is provided for each player. And being that it was cold and RAINY this day of play, they should've provided towels; no exception.

For the most part, the tee boxes were just fine. However, my players all commented on several boxes that were severely mounded. I understand course maintenance and water runoff, but these are definitely in need of being rebuilt. All of the tees had also seen a bit of play and had a significant number of divots, etc. I was surprised that the staff didn't move the markers for this tournament. The course is full of players and it's Sunday afternoon. Pretty sure you won't have a ton of play over the next few days so why not give us a fresh area of grass off which to hit our tee shots!? The #3 tee is especially large and it was almost painful to look back at a massive perfectly smooth green grassy area ... that was no where near the markers.

Not much to say about the fairways. They were all in fine shape. No complaints. And my players certainly like having the yardage markers (bumps) on the cart path. They're colorful and very easy to see ... unlike the paint that so many other courses use.

The bunkers were a-ok -- perfect amount of (good) sand. The water was plentiful ... likely due to heavy rains during the previous month. There was a nice amount of varying vegetation around the course. And being on the edge +/- of the hill country, there are plenty of oaks (and other large trees) along with the heavy rough which really like to turn the head of that iron you're swinging.

The greens were all in excellent shape. I can't recall seeing a single bad spot on any of them. They'd likely been aerated within the past week and I saw tiny bits of fertilizer all around which often collected on your ball. No worries ... just part of yearly upkeep.

Grey Rock is in fantastic shape. Greens are rolling true and quick. Overall, the course is in great shape and looks to be going into the winter months at top notch. No complaints on the course; however list price of $84 is steep. I am guessing that since they are the only course in a rather wealthy area, they are able to maintain a high price point.
