Wolfdancer Golf Club

Nice 'resort' course.....too bad they had sanded greens a few weeks before.....why they do this in prime golf time is a mystery to me ! Only one real 'signature' hole and only one hole that used a big hill on the property. Fun to play once for the price (hot deal - only way to go) but would not be worth Full cost ($165).

If you are looking for a course to really test your golf skills, this the course for you. Make sure you are playing from the tees that fit your skill level, ortherwise be prepared for a kick in the pants.

This course has some elevated and sloped greens and tons of sand around the greens. Course is well maintained

The month of August in Texas is a nightmare for all golf course superintendents, but Wolf Dancer seems to be surviving the summer just fine. There are no houses on the course like many courses in Austin, and the course is both challenging and very scenic.

One of my favorite public courses in Austin.

Love to play again. Pretty expensive but would come back. Staff was exceptional

With the local rate, it's a great deal! Best course in the Austin area. Challenging and fun and the staff is always friendly. Great facility. Can't go wrong when you play at Wolfdancer.

A great mix of holes set in the hills and down in the river valley. One of the most challenging courses in the Austin area, but no ridiculous fairway slopes or tremendous carries. The only thing that could be improved is the condition of the bunkers. Extra kudos to the marshal delivering iced towels. Nothing better on a 100+ degree afternoon.

thoroughly enjoyed my round at Wolfdancer...it is quite a long drive from Austin but worth the trip...every staff member I met made me feel special...and the course -- wonderful layout that forces you to use every club in your bag...tough greens, but fair...one criticism, the bunkers could use some work -- most that I visited are in rough shape...the Golf Now deal was incredible value for money...

We were able to play for $50, which is a great deal for this course. Greens were in great condition and rolled true. Fairways were great - some were a little hard, but that isn't uncommon in the middle of summer in Texas. One of my favorite courses in the area.

This course is just the right mix of challenge, fun, scenery, greenery and more. Golfnow.com made this a no-brainer

Wolfdancer was a good course for the amout I paid through Golf Now. I certainly don't consider it a $100 a round course, but I suppose they have a captive audience at the resort. It shares the same annoying feature that the Hyatt in San Antonio has, which is trees in the fairway. For some reason the course designer decided that well hit tee shots should also need some luck. There are some holes on Wolfdancer that has an unnecessary tree blocking a shot to green that is completely unnecessary. Stupid design! Also, be aware that if you play on a weekend, it will almost for sure, be a 5 hour round. It is set up to play very slow. The much review super fast greens were not that fast. Many hadn't fully recovered from whenever they airerated. They were still pretty rough. Overall, a good course but nothing really special.

The course was in great shape and proved to be very challenging. The fairways are generous for the most part, so you want to hit them...if you don't, the rough is thick and can be difficult the hit out of. Several of the greens could have been in better shape, but all proved difficult. The deal we got from GolfNow was a steal, but I am not sure the round would have been worth it if we had paid full price.

There are some really tough holes mixed in with a couple of resort like cupcakes. The greens are the biggest challenge with plenty of undulation on most of them. When I played here in mid July 2013, the entire course had been aerated. I wish I had been told, or offered five bucks off, or something like that. It made for the some bumpy putts. I know it has to be done...just tell us about it. Overall a fine experience!

When I called and asked if the greens had recently been aerated, the guy said "yes, but they are holding and looking great". Only to get there and they were aerated two days earlier and were the most terrible greens I have ever played on. A total waste of money.

I'm sure the course is great in the fall.

Escape in more ways than one at Wolfdancer, part of the Hyatt Lost Pines Resort west of Bastrop. This property is a revelation in its sweeping country and river views, elevation changes, routing, and length -- all less than 5 minutes (and more than a few blood pressure points) from the bustling Austin-Bastrop growth corridor.

Fast, undulating greens will also give you the feeling of escape--if you leave the green in bogey or better. GPS in carts; USE IT to stay on the right side of the pin, usually underneath. Greens are fairly consistent throughout, so you'll probably get all the chance you need to gauge speed and break.

The amenities and course conditions are pretty well worth what you're paying, even if you think it's a little on the high side. This is not bargain seeker golf.

Truly enjoyed the round of golf. Staff was very friendly and course was in immaculate shape.

Always pristine, beautiful, everything you would want in a golf course and then there is the excellent staff which is all about service with a smile and very friendly attitude, permeates throughout the entire staff. Great location for all of Central Texas, fabulous practice facility. This place has it all, highly recommend for all levels of golfers that don't mind having their game tested, sometimes to the max but under the best possible golfing conditions.

Very enjoyable course. Only saw the drink cart on course ONE time in 100+ heat so plan accordingly.

Wolfdancer is one of my favorite courses to play in the Austin metro. Friendly staff and very helpful.

The issues I had with this trip (played 6/25/13 is that they had just verticut and top dressed the greens. Greens are at the top of my list when playing golf so this was a let down. The other disappointment I had is they are now handing out a bag of practice balls at the golf shop (bag may have 20 balls in them). They used to have the mini golf bags full of balls at each station on the range and you could hit as many as you would like while enjoying some good Texas country music. I hope they consider bringing back the mini golf bags at each station. For such a high end course to hand out a small bag of practice balls, it almost made it feel like playing a muni.

Had a great time was expecting a real difficuit course. Turned out to be great for us not too long hitters. Were able to keep score low by playing with the course. Easy fairways but tough tough greens. Can't wait to play it again.
