Lago Vista Golf Course

This is a fun course in the hills outside of Austin. It starts off with some nice straight warm up holes before it starts to test your shot making ability. #9 is particularly interesting with a blind tee shot only to leave you with a even blinder shot to a green which is situated about 70 yards below your site line. Also, it has roads on two sides. The back nine is fun with some nice challenging holes. Very well maintained course when I played, and worth the drive and money.

I like the course, but the fairways need attention. The cutt needs to be lower. There is liitle roll after your shot hits the fairway. Please lower the cut on the greens too! Thanks

Not only the great value, but the excellent condition the course is in will bring myself and my friends back for more. There was a slow 2-some in front of us, but the $2 beers kept us happy.

Good course in a beautiful location. Women checking me barked "tee time" and then tossed keys and bucket of balls to me and turned around and kept talking. It was not a busy day.

Well maintained, rolling hills with trees, lots of trees.

The course is in pretty good shape. I enjoy playing here.

Grass was in great shape on tees, fairways and greens. Greens were a little firm, and mowed pretty high, so they were a little bit slow (unusual for this course). Course is not overly long, but has a lot of vertical changes and blind tee shots. Friendly staff and golfers. Played a twosome, and we were consistenly waved through larger groups. Completed the round in 2.5 hours.

Played March 2013. Got a good rate on Golf Now ($24 with cart and range balls). Course is probably average at best. Fairways were cut to primary rough length. Greens were in good shape. I walked the course and it is very hilly. Friendly staff and pace of play good (3.5 hours).

I have played this course many times over the last 12 years and have never seen the fairways and greens in this good of condition. I would recommend this course to anyone who is looking for a course in good shape with great views and at a very good price.

Fun to play this course but be prepared for steep hills (up and down) and holes that require careful management to score well.
No range balls available the day we played. No starter or marshals either even though the course was crowded.

Incredibly well kept fairways and greens. Very challenging for this newbie, but so much fun. Crowded so we were paired with two great buys Bill and Ray, luckily too as they had played there before and we (hubby and I) hadn't.

We took a break under a shade tree before hitting the back 9 and were left solo for the rest of the course. We couldn't have had a better time. Good people, good equipment, great greens... what more can I say??

Enjoyed the course greatly. The only down fall would be the slow play, but it was Saturday and everyone was out playing.

The only thing missing here, is good yardage markers and pin placement cards. This can be done for almost nothing. Some of the par three yardages are off by almost 40 yards and it is difficlut if not impossible to see where the pins are located, on many greens, until you are on the green.

beautiful scenery with challenging holes..love to play it

Awesome course. I loved the views off the tee box on the back nine. Be sure follow the directions of the signs to check for people on the fairways. They have two blind holes are awesome.

Lago Vista Golf Course is a great play for the money! There are beautiful views of the Texas hill country all along the course,and plenty of Deer on the course as well. The Lake (LBJ) is down about 80 feet but is still a commanding prescence.The course was well maintained,Lush, and the Greens were soft which made for easy scoring conditions. The course offers many elevation changes and undulations which will challenge your club selection. Pro shop and Food/Grill are available as well as adult beverages.

lago vista is a nice course. it's not the best maintained course in the world, but the layout is good. back 9 has some challenging holes.

The fairways were in great shape, the greens excellent. The only exception that I would make is that some of the tee boxes are not level, making it an issue to set up for teeing off.

Decent condition for winter. Not as good as one would expect from an expensive country club, but Lago Vista is not an expensive country club. Although not a particularly difficult course, it is fun and the terrain is beautiful. It's a great course for $28.

There were also deer all over the place. All but two holes had deer, and I'd estimate there were fifteen deer per hole, if not more.

This course has plenty of challenge to go with the numerous deer. The front nine seemed a little more playable than the back nine. The biggest issue I have with the course was the distance markers did not match the scorecard and it played longer than the numbers posted. Worth playing at least one time, but not on my return list.
