About
Blackhawk rests on the site of an old dairy farm, where the rolling terrain is suited for this links-style layout. This wide-open course features lots of water, loads of bunkers, and huge greens that are easy to three-putt if your approaches are off and you don’t have that feel for lag putting.
Each side has a punishing finishing hole. No. 9 is a monstrous par 4 that plays 464 yards. Off the tee, the narrow landing area is not conducive for the necessary booming drive, and the water causes problems in the fairway and around the green.
Hole 18 plays 430 yards, requiring a tee shot into the dogleg-right fairway that must thread two bodies of water.
The club prefers that you walk only on weekdays.
Getting there : Take I-35 north out of Austin, then exit FM 1825 east. Drive 5 miles to Hwy. 685 and turn left. Drive another 2.5 miles to Kelly Ln. and turn right.

Golfer Reviews
Course in bad shape
Greens were in terrible shape pitted everywhere causing putts to bounce around, no water to drink on the course and bottled water at pro shop was $2:50 a bottle.
It’s unfortunate because the course layout is good but the each hole was in disrepair and not managed
Great place to play have fun.... Play golf
Great course to visit have a great time every time I'm there. Greens are in great condition prayer ways first respect
Good Course
Good course for the Value. Empty water jugs on course, bring or buy your own. Back nine got a little congested. No cart girl on a Friday, not sure on other days. I’d definitely play here again.
Disappointed
Used to be a nice course with friendly staff. That is not the case any longer. Right off the bat the gentleman at the clubhouse desk was rude, seemed confused and frustrated. The course is nice but in horrible condition. Lots of better places to play in the aeea for the price.
Great bang for your buck
Easily the quickest golf course in Austin area (aside from Lago Vista).
This place gets a bad rap but it is actually in fine condition and has some 500+ yard holes. I have never taken longer than 3 hours to finish a round and that is playing with other people.
Great bartender too.
All around good course for $25 afternoon rate
Greens were bad
Just keep coming back and hoping for improvement but course continues to disappoint . Has lots of potential but greens were so bad it took the fun out of it..
The reputation is real
I live in the neighborhood and wish this course was better taken care of. They need someone to buy them out and put a good amount of funds into it. Take a year off to update and then release the new course.
Bad
From the tee boxes down to the green, on each hole is terrible. It’s like they aren’t even trying.
Sad state
I use to play this course often when my Father was alive. The course from those days doesn’t even come close. They should actually not charge to play this course at this time. Weeds are taking over the greens . More dirt than grass on the fairways. I have seen driving ranges with better grass and greens. Please someone buy this course and turn it around. On the right shape this course could get 85-100 per round like Avery Ranch or Forest Creek. Please either fix this course or just close it. How sad to see the shape this course has gotten to
Work To Be Done
This course is a low cost local, but the owners don't seem to take much effort in making the greens & fairways a priority to fix. Really, really poor for the area.
Not worth what they are charging
Course conditions are horrible for the amount they are charging. Greens are still bare and fairways are in need of some much needed up keep. Tee boxes are uneven. Best part of round was it wasn't busy so pace of play was not an issue. Staff was was very friendly. This course really has the layout to be very special, but only if they put some serious money in renovations.
