About

Holes 18
Type Public
Style Links
Par 72
Length 7072 yards
Slope 125
Rating 74.5

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.

Bad owners

The owner of this course refuses to maintain the course. Greens are in horrible condition the fairways are patchy at best. Water spewing out of the sprinkler system, no water coolers on the course also. I would not play this course again especially for the money you have to spend.

Don’t bother

They need to shut this place down and rebuild it. Clubhouse is gross and it feels like the floor is going to collapse. Course is in horrendous shape… easily the worst I’ve ever seen. The fact that they charge $50 is crazy.

Don't bother

Worst course experience in a long time. Not enough carts for the scheduled tee times, we were delayed 40 minutes. The starter let two other groups ahead of us with later tee times. Course is in horrible shape which I knew going in, the customer service was the reason for the poor review.

This course is not at all maintained and not at all playable. This course is potholes, dirt patches, weeds and overgrown fairways. Cannot even putt due to condition of greens. The clubhouse looks like a run down abandoned building. The carts are dirty and have destroyed upholstery.
