ShadowGlen Golf Club

If you can’t hit straight your going to lose a lot of golf balls. Had beautiful shot but due to layout it was llost. There are so many hazards on so many holes. I will not play here again. Almost every hole has a hazard that has to be negotiated. Several have many. That’s my take.

This course can be challenging for all players. Great deal for the price. Course conditions are overall good with some beat up tee boxes and weedy fairways.

Live this course, it's well maintained and challenging!

This course has it all for the money! Best public course around Austin in my opinion

The course had no tee markers and no hole descriptions. As first time players it was very difficult to maneuver around the course. The greens were very bumpy and did not roll true. I would not recommend this course for anyone without knowledge of its layout.

ShadowGlen is a fine golf course by any standard and at almost any price and is fantastic value, the best in the Austin area. My wife and I played there all last winter and can't wait to get back. The course is long enough and tricky, especially in the Texas wind, and it's a short, easy drive from downtown. The staff epitomize Texas hospitality and good humor. The beer is cold and cheap and the clubhouse is cozy and unpretentious. Even the range and practice facilities are great. If you like your golf to be about golf rather than rich-guy frills and luxury, get out to Manor and tee it up.

Challenging course... front nine is more difficult than the back. Greens, fairways and even the T boxes are first class.

Course is always well maintained. Greens are always tough. Staff is always friendly, and the value is fantastic relative to the cost

Great pace, good value. My 2-some teed off at 8:17 AM and finished in 3.5 hours. Had a single behind us on the front and we followed him on the back. Passed the Ranger twice, and that is about all the traffic we saw. It turned out to be 103 degrees that day, but we were off the course before the heat and home by noon.

Pace of play was ridiculously slow. The time of day that i tee’d off (1:14pm) made my round miserable with the amount of time that i had to wait to hit each shot. No marshall ever seen. Multiple parties with 5 people. Love this course though and will play again. Will plan for earlier tee time next time.

Shadow is always a good choice for a reasonably priced golf course but I have to be honest it seems to have gone downhill this summer. Yes, the greens were aerated and bumpy which is totally understandable (FYI I would not play here until after 8/21). My concern is the overall course. The fairways are seeing clumps of crabgrass pop up and the transition from fairway to rough is unclear. The sandtraps barely have any sand.

All in all, I will try to make it back out later in the year but this time around it was a lackluster round.

First time playing ShadowGlen this past weekend.... Bring PLENTY of water, not much shade on this course at all. Course is in good condition but needs Hole markers with distance at each hole. The back 9 is very enjoyable, with water hazards. Until the weather cools off, i advice an early or late tee time, but all in all a fun and worthwhile Central Texas course.

Great value, course in excellent shape. Greens soft and rolling good. Sand traps could use some care but just minor work. Very enjoyable round.

Fairways have a lot of dry spots and I've never played a sub 4-hour round here. Better to go to Teravista, star ranch, Avery ranch, etc.

Best value in the Austin area. It’s a short drive from central/west Austin and well worth it.

A busy course that could due with spacing out the tee times a bit more. Front 9 plays slow as it is difficult. Some small ravines and creeks to keep an eye out for when you’re playing. Overall a solid course for the $40-$60 range.

The greens and fairways were in very nice shape considering our heat. They seemed to be doing quite a bit of watering. My only complaints would be... They had not manicured the sand bunkers (shaping and grass trimming) and the secondary rough was was too high to the point that you could lose your ball right off the green. They just needed to mow!
