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
In horrible condition.
This course was in rough shape. I was trying to take advantage of the course being close to my house but it was very disappointing. Everything from the condition of the golf carts to the lack of grass in the fairways and weed-stricken tees and greens... outright horrible. Please save your money and do NOT play here.
What a goat track!
Staff is rude. No kitchen staff. Horrible course. Worst greens I've ever seen. $60 a round.
Not good
Maybe the worst shape I’ve seen this course in and that says a lot. Greens were horrendous.
The only reason to ever play here is if it’s close to you and it’s very last minute (and super desperate to get out)…as you will get tee times.
Let's see how long the course survives
Blackhawk has gotten worse and worse over the years. They don't even have drinking water on the course anymore. I'd be shocked if this course is around much longer.
Just Don't
This is the worst golf course I've ever played on. The greens have crabgrass all over them and you can't tell what's the fairway or rough. Don't waste your time here.
Guys. Wake up
It’s your fault this course is still in business. You guys see the 2 star yet still play for 40$ then write a bad review. If you se this do NOT play this course. Your welcome.
Not worth going
This was a poorly maintained course with bad management and customer service. They messed up my reservation (even though I had a written confirmation) with no apology and acted like I was in the wrong. The pace of play was terribly mismanaged (we were waiting 15 minutes on every hole) and the staff weren’t helpful or even particularly polite. despite having paid for 18 holes we quit after 9 because conditions were so unpleasant.
Better Management
This course needs to be maintenanced properly before it just goes bad. The greens are in the worse condition and this course use to be a good course. What happened?
Blackhawk
The layout of the course was good and it has potential to be a nice course. Unfortunately the fairways and greens were in very poor condition and the course looked neglected.. However, it was not expensive and the pace of play good so all things considered i enjojed my day out.
Blackhawk Not what it used to Be
Played the course on December 30, 2022 and it was in very poor condition. Greens and fairways were both in bad shape. clubhouse needs a major update and no beverage cart was seen on the course.
Terrible course
I feel like I have been robbed everytime I play this god awful course. Conditions are trash, greens are horrific and completely inconsistent, and it’s laughable that they actually charge $50 to play this course. This is hands down the lowest quality golf course in the entire greater Austin Metro. Just go to the range instead of playing this course. Fairways…. Trash. Rough… trash. Greens… trash. Not a single bunker on the course now because they filled them so you just get ridiculous conditions off the green.
Decent course
Have played this course handful of times. For the price it’s an okay play course is definitely under construction. Greens are needing attention like the rest of the course. Would be nice to have more port-a potty’s or an actual restroom throughout the course. Ball wash stations were empty and towels were gone.
Blackhawk Needs Work
Clubhouse and course in pretty bad shape. Greens are very rough and fairways not much better. Ownership needs to put some money into improvements.
