ShadowGlen Golf Club

Usually the pace of play is good at Shadow Glen, but not on Monday. Seemed like one group was holding up three other groups and nothing was done about it. The pace picked up on the last three holes, mainly because that other group finally finished. Guess they didn't know how to play ready golf.

I like the course overall, greens are not as good as I have seen them in the past, hopefully they will fill in with the warmer weather. At least it does look like work is being done to get the course into shape.

This is a sad story of a course that literally came back to life almost a decade ago, became probably my favorite hidden gem in the Austin area and is now a complete waste of time.

We played on greens that had maybe 10% of the surface area actually covered with turf. When we asked the staff what happened it was “you know, Austin courses” Like, huh? We just finished playing three other courses this week that were pristine.

That same attitude carried to every aspect of service. Even down to your choice of beer.

Total dogtrack now. That’s a bummer, It has a great layout that makes you use a lot of different clubs and shots - it’s just that nobody around there cares anymore.

Sadly, crossing this one off the list permanently.

Nice layout. Greens were rough. Pace a bit slow. I played right after lots of rain and course was flooded in places. Enjoyed the course overall.

Love how back nine is different with the Austin foothills course layout

The greens were in poor condition - infested with an odd grass that caused the ball bounce and go off line.

Pace slow 4.5 hours due to a slow threesome and no ranger.

Greens are awful and not maintained. Over priced for the course conditions. Go to Star Ranch GC up the road for a better experience.

I liked the course. Nice layout and it was in good condition except the greens. Obviously the cold had killed most of them. Nothing but sand, mud and weeds. It will be a while before they can be recovered.

Really nice layout. Course has taken a beating from the rain and the inconsistent temperatures. Greens were a mess, but just needs a little time and warmth for the Poa Annua to die out and the Bermuda to recover.

Played the Saturday before Easter and the staff was incredible besides their one marshall. I get that our group was slow but you do not need to threaten to kick us of the course for being a few minutes behind. Also if you are going to warn us don't yell from your cart while we are putting on the third green and then drive off before we can say anything. I would not be coming back if it wasn't for the other staff members being so great and the course being insanely fun. Side not that pizzas is INCREDIBLE.

I’ve played here several times and loved it. This time was a little different. I’m not gonna hit it with a bad review, but the green’s definitely needed some love. It’s missing quite a bit of grass. Fairways were pretty hard and lots of missing grass. I’d still recommend playing here since I know they will be maintaining it and getting it back up to where it was. Very challenging, lots of water. Beautiful scenery.

This was a great course to play. Surprising layout and difficulty. Greens had been sanded and unpredictable but I would happily play the course again. Minimal food options. Evidently they will have a food cart this week.

Course was in the absolute worst condition I’ve seen. Looked like they hadn’t watered the course in months. Playing off of dirt mostly. Bunkers were hard as a rock.

Limited carts. Life’s too short to play golf courses in this kind of shape.

the starter at the course gave us the bad news that the greens are in bad shape and some would be un puttable. this would have been good to know at time of booking and paying that high price for poor conditions.

Course is in awful condition. Weeds all over the green that constantly moved my ball like a pinball machine. Fairways were comparable to a dead lawn. Constantly hitting off of dirt and mud in the fair ways. Tee boxes were nice though. Do not recommend playing here.

This course is in bad shape. This is the fift time playing this course and the last two time this course has been in terrible condition. The green were terrible and couldn't get a average role. The course layout is great just plain maintenance. Someone told me they fixed it so I gave them another shot but not again.

I have played the course many times and it was not in as good condition as I usually expect it.

May still be recovering from the winter freeze, but seemed lack of water on fairways was an issue and greens were bare and bumpy in spots.

To their credit, appears measures are being taken to correct situation. One green was considered temporary as it was being dressed. So may want to check on conditions before playing to avoid disappointment.
