The Golf Club Star Ranch

About
Hutto’s been put on the golf map now that the first-class Star Ranch has opened up on what was once a cattle ranch, boasting a unique collaborative effort from the Morrish brothers (Jay and Carter) and the Bechtol, Russell design firm.
The course sits on a hill and is built around a centralized lake, featuring the typical spectacular Hill Country topography highlighted by plush, undulating fairways and bleached white sand bunkers.
No. 2 is one of the most difficult holes and the first real challenge of your golf day. The 417-yard par 4 has more of an open feel than some of the other holes, but it’s length generally means a rather long approach, and the green is surrounded by several massive bunkers.
Getting there : From Austin, take I-35 north and exit Parmer Ln. Turn right and go east on Parmer to Dessau Rd. Turn left and go north on Dessau, which becomes FM 685. Go 5 miles past FM 1825 in Pflugerville and the club is on the left.

Not common of course, but this happened one round when the cows from the neighboring field decided the grass was greener on the other side. Photo submitted by GordonATX on 07/03/2013
excellent course conditions
Two thumbs up on all aspect of the course and staff. Four thumbs up if I had two more hands.
top notch track
Course is amazing-fun to play-well designed holes. The need for various tee boxes are right on! Will be back.
Comfortable layout
truly enjoyed the course as fairways are comfortably accomodating and greens are in phenomenal shape
Beautiful
Long time ago i played this course first time at that time i made first time hole in one during my life in this couse, after that i tryed to get opportunity play again but i missed with several reasons. Always memorize to make chance play this course again and then i made reservation through golfnow and played again. It was very nice course if i have chance i would like to play again again in a future.
Great public course
Love the layout and the condition of the course. Really enjoyed the design and the layout. Worth the price.
Always Good
Star Ranch is a great course. It is very fair with wider fairways, but the greens are protected well. There are some beautiful holes. They supervise the pace of play well and it is never over 4.5 hours at the very most. Staff is very friendly. Good concession and the refreshment cart comes around regularly. Definitely worth the price. They keep in good condition.
Hutto Texas Gem
I had the great pleasure of playing The Golf Club T Star Ranch. The course offers a great layout with a challenge for all levels of golfers. The course was in great condition and the pace of play was good.
I look forward to my next round!!
Par Ranch
Love the layout even more when starting from #10 I hope they make that the new normal.
Free range balls is such a huge perk it gives a public course that private feel, all the staff are great and make this easily my favorite course in Austin. Course is in great condition at the moment too
Unnotified Aerated Greens
The course had its greens aerated just two days prior to my round, which severely impacted the quality of play. Unfortunately, this important information was not disclosed at the time of booking.
Had I known the greens were recently aerated, I would have chosen a different course or delayed my round. I rely on GolfNow for accurate course conditions, and in this case, the lack of transparency resulted in a poor experience.
