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.

Quality course

I played Grey Rock for the first time on 07/24/2016. The course was in great condition considering the normal Texas heat we have been experiencing. With that being said, the only issue my group had with Grey Rock was the lukewarm water in the coolers positioned throughout the course. Coolers with ice would be welcomed since there was no beverage cart during our play on the weekend. I look forward to playing Grey Rock in the future!

Great Course, Kinda Expensive

I had been wanting to play this course ever since it was announced that the city bought it to replace Lions. Unfortunately it is much more expensive to play than Lions, I did get a good deal off of GolfNow though but I would not pay full price to play here but it is much better than Lions. Course was in great shape and fun to play. My only negative experience was the starter who proceeded to chew me out because my buddy was late and we started about 5 minutes past our tee time. Also, we only saw the drink cart once but the rest of the staff was really friendly and the 19th hole is great with several beers on tap!

Poor conditions for the price

Played Grey Rock early on a Saturday morning. The pace of place was slower than I prefer- 4:30-4:45 for 18 holes.

The good- one of the few courses where hitting the fairway was a benefit. The rough was a 1/2-3/4 shot penalty, as it should be. Also, the traps had sand. A rarity on most public courses.

The bad- the greens were poor. Green speed was slow with several having significant areas with little or no grass. Shots into the green wouldn't hold. Never saw a pitch mark.

At the price being charged to play there, course conditioning was not where it needs to be. I won't be playing this course again.

Greens in BAD shape...

I love this course...Having said that, The greens and in very bad shape. It is impossible to put. Number 8 green is all sand. Its time to close that green and grow some grass.

This course is a good, fair course

Good layout, greens and fairways in great shape with all the rain. If you are hitting them good then you can score on this course. Trees on both sides of most holes but the fairways are reasonable. Not a lot of water. Fair amount of bunkers but not a lot.

Pretty good, but not great.

The course has always been pretty consistent and usually in good shape. Rough could be maintained a bit more - too thin in places where a ball that's barely rolling ends up in the trees vs. being at least playable. Main concern is the value - way overpriced when other equal courses in Austin charge $20 less for the same tee time, range balls, etc.

Those Greens Were Tricky!

This is a very nice course, especially considering it is now a City owned track. There are a variety of shots to be played, with (what seemed like) bunkers everywhere. The entire course was in very good shape, and the greens rolled fast and true. About those greens....whomever cut the hole placement today was a sadist. If you missed, your follow up putt may be be ten feet longer than your original putt. All that said, I would play there again in a heartbeat. Oh, I forgot to mention, I hope you like LONG Par 3's, because from the blues or golds....they are not 7 or 8 iron shots.
