First Time Playing Grey Rock

This was my first round at Grey Rock. The course is in great shape overall. However, the greens are still coming in from the winter so they do have a bit of sand from course management. Not enough to give the course a lower rating. Overall would play again in a couple of weeks to see how they improve.

First Time Playing

1st time playing Greyrock

I'm a 2 handicap. I had never played Greyrock before and saw on golfnow that it was $28 to play.

I was greeted in the parking lot with a cart which was unusual, but much appreciated.

The only complaint I would have is that they just sanded the greens the day before. However, even with the sand on the greens the course was an excellent shape.

One strange feature about Greyrock is the First Tee is about three-quarters of a mile away from the clubhouse. Because of that it would be a really tough course to walk in my opinion. But I guess if you got a ride with someone to The First Tee It would be decent from there.

I played from the gold tees, which measure a little over 6900 yards. The course has plenty of room in the fairways. One thing nice is that there are very few houses on this course especially the back side there are no houses.

I definitely plan on going back when the greens are not sanded, very good deal.

What's with the greens?

First of all, I love the track. Few holes are just straight forward and each hole has a unique challenge whether it's long, short, left, or right. The service staff is very friendly and the cart service is always exceptional. Only a few things concerned me with my last visit. First was the horrendous condition of the greens. I understand aerification is important, but I didn't understand the 4-5 foot sand patches all over several greens. Also, any time there are weeds growing on the greens of a course this caliber it's disappointing. Next, we were behind several groups of four on the standard 4:10 pace and no golfer should have a problem with this on a busy day. So when I get hit onto while on the green 2 separate times, please kick the foursome in jeans and tee-shirts off the course. But apparently several complaints to the marshal isn't enough to get the situation handled. If you want the best muni golf in Austin, go to Roy Kizer. It has smooth greens, challenging play, and good people.

Hi, Justin. Let us first start by apologizing for the current course conditions. We are working on getting everything ready for the 2017 season and are wrapping up all of our projects as fast as we can to minimize the disruption. The delay you experience during your pace of play is by no means a standard we strive to achieve. We will escalate your feedback to the team in charge of our rangers to make changes before your next round. We appreciate the honest review and hope you can give us a second chance to show you why we believe we are the best course in Austin. Thank you for playing Grey Rock Golf Club.

Reasonable rates

Greens were top dressed which detracted from the course. Fairways in good shape although starting to dry out. Snakes were out, though, so balls amidst trees were left to rot. Overall made me more conscious of what can be found even for a course with few water hazards.

Good design but greens are struggling

Played Grey Rock for the first time. When arriving the first area you walk past is the putting green. It looks Ok from a distance but dropping balls down it is clear the greens are ruff. It is early in the growing season so they may come back. On the course they are playable but overall not real good. The course design is done well and a real pleasure to feel like you are out in the country even though you are in Austin proper. I would definitely go back but would need to be assured the greens were in much better shape.

Greyrock

I was disappointed in the condition of the course. The greens were horrible on the front nine, but a little better on the back nine. All in all not a good value for the money they are asking.

Underwhelming for the money and poor maintenance

I had high hopes for the course since I just moved close to it, but for the price I expected much more. The greens were half sand and patchy all over the place. It felt like I was playing more of a $20 course compared to the $70 charged for the round. The carts are old, and mine barely made it 9 before dying. The course has the potential to be something nice with the layout and landscape surrounding it, but maintenance is definitely lacking. Hoping it improves as time goes on. I will give it another shot in a few months.

In good shape for winter!

We played on Sunday before the superbowl, weather was overcast no rain course was a little wet. Greens are is great shape for this time of the year they were smooth. There was one par 3 that had some damage on the greens but other than that they are really good for this time of year. Definitely will be back soon.

Grey Rock Golf Outing

Course is tight and places a premium on straight shots. Course seems to play longer than the yardage. Enough bunkers and trees to challenge misdirected shots but not overly punishing. The course condition was good considering it is middle of winter and the greens rolled well.

Excellent Course and maintenance

I really enjoyed playing Grey Rock. The fairways are lush and the greens couldn't have been greener. The layout is challenging but not overly difficult if you have an errant shot occasionally. We played from the blue tees as a threesome with handicaps of ~10 and it felt like a good balance of length and difficulty. A couple of drivable par 4's (9 and 15) made for a fun day. I would certainly recommend this track to anyone looking for an enjoyable round without paying an arm and a leg.

Grey Rock is a winner

We were in Austin for Thanksgiving and played Grey Rock on a whim. I will make this my "go-to" for the Southwest Austin area. It was really scenic and had a great vibe from the clubhouse and amenities, and throughout the course. The course was in great shape and challenging. Don't miss it!

Good track, worth checking out

I had very enjoyable round. Despite recent wet whether course held up well. Track is interesting and not overly difficult so gives a chance to score low if striking well. Staff were friendly and pace of play good despite being mainly 4-balls out on course. Would recommend if looking to play in Austin area.

Great Course

It was a prefect day for golf, a day that matched the course. I thought the course very difficult, pin placement was a large part of that. The greens are very challenging. The tees, fairways and greens were all immaculate.

This is definitely a course to visit again.
