Cowan Creek Golf Course
About
Cowan Creek Golf Course is the newest of three courses that are part of Del Webb's Sun City retirement community. Cowan Creek has a resort-style layout with a front nine that plays through the community, with the homes set well back from the fairways, and a back nine that stretches across the scenic Hill Country landscape. The back nine is slightly tougher than the front. Although the golf course is wide-open there are some mesquite trees and cacti that add some scenery throughout. The layout features large landing areas, forgiving fairways, and there are few tricks and hazards, all of which make it an approachable course for beginners. There are some challenges though that will appeal to more experienced players including a few blind shots, elevated greens and tees, and some forced carries. Throughout Cowan Creek Golf Course, golfers will find some interesting risk-reward opportunities.

Golfer Reviews
Fun course, just need some grass in the fairways
Overall fun course, good layout and greens were rolling fast which is a good thing. Tee boxes in good shape too, just wish the fairways actually had some grass. Might as well hit off the cart path, same as the fairways.
But this seems to be an issue for most of the courses in the Austin surrounding areas, they cut the fairways too low in the Fall, grass goes dormant and then screwed for the winter with no grass in the fairways.
Hi atxg0lf3r, thank you for leaving us with your feedback and taking the time to visit our course. We value our customer experience, so your review is important to us for any potential improvements. We will make note and hope to welcome you back for an improved golf experience in the near future!
Good Golf Course
Cowan Creek GC has nice, wide fairways and great greens. Has a good mix of par 5, 4, and 3s. Sand traps and fairway bunkers are well maintained. Friendly staff. A huge negative is lack of snack, food, and drink amenities. Uses GolfNow for online tee time booking. Not the best choice for their online bookings! All three Sun City courses would be much more efficient with EZLinks, which is less of a hassle and much more user-friendly.

Great course
Very nice course, good pace of play, and beautiful weather.
They don't have a clubhouse with alcohol - which is the only drawback.

Entertaining & fun track to play
Didn’t tee off till around 2 so paid for 18 & only got in 9. Other than that negative, course was fun, challenging. Greens were super fast that required some adjust but that made the round more interesting. Wish I had been able to play 18.

Pace of play way to slow
Pro shop must have booked all the golfers for the whole day in a 3 hour window. Got bottle necked really bad after first few holes so every one was standing around for 20 minutes at least before you could tee off. Other then that best course I've played!3

A good Sun City Course
The courses in Sun City, Georgetown are generally well maintained and offer moderate challenge. Cowan Creek fits that description...it is very open and fairly forgiving.

About what you would expect
This course is part of the Del Webb Community, which is a real estate development for active-lifestyle seniors. As such, it is not overly challenging, but is designed for enjoyment. On that score, It succeeded. The course conditions were excellent (except for a few sand bunkers that were under major repair).
