About
While it hasn't received as much publicity as the other Hill Country tracks since it opened around 1990, Crystal Falls Golf Club is definitely worthy of praise. Highlighted by one of the greatest par 3s in Texas and some outstanding topography, this is one of those courses you'll want to play at least once, if only for the views. In addition to the scenery, the main thing everyone talks about here is the severely sloping fairways that provide problems for those who hit the ball left-to-right. The famous par 3 in question is the 192-yard 11th, featuring a phenomenal view and a 200-yard drop to the green. Club selection is a crap-shoot at best, and the green is surrounded by mounds.

11th Hole at Crystal Falls Golf Course, Leander TX Photo submitted by wshowers on 12/02/2012
Great Course!
First time out there and had to get an early morning tee time to beat the heat but other than that, had a wonderful experience. Course and greens were in great shape and the scenery was great.

Highly recommend
Great layout. Very challenging with some narrow fairways and changes of elevation. Course was in great shape considering water restrictions except for the greens had just been plugged. Look forward to playing again when they're healed. A bonus was the service levels with the cart attendant meeting me at my car and the starter making sure I was paired with an enjoyable game. A+ for everyone!

Good course for the price
The course was under maintenance during my round, the greens had just been aerated. The driving range was also under maintenance so I wasn’t able to really warm up prior to my round. But with that said course conditions were pretty good considering the weather and the heat. The staff definitely met every expectation possible. The food/drink is a touch expensive. The course it’s self is a little difficult but definitely an interesting and fun layout. Give this course a month from the day of this review And the greens will probably be rolling very good. Will definitely be playing again

Great course
Was the first time here. Unfortunately, half of the course was on maintenance could enjoy the entire course. But the course was good and well maintained. Was quite crowded due to the course maintenance.

Driving range was out of condition; tee boxes were bare and super-hard. Understand these things will get improved...

Hard as a rock tee boxes
Needed a hammer to place the tees the ground was so hard. Fairways have a lot of weeds in them and it doesn't appear they water them much. I am aware we are in a drought but....just saying that I should be able to tee up my ball on the tee boxes.

Difficult Slopes, Bad Pace
Only been back into golf for a month now and shoot around a 100 on average. If you’re not experienced this course is not for you. Sloped fairways send your ball to the rough a lot of times regardless of your tee shot, a lot of difficult holes here and the pace of play is usually going to be awful because of rich 80 year old heffers who take 8 practice swings and play in fivesomes. Other than that, the course is beautiful and is taken care of pretty well. The only thing wrong with the layout and conditions is the fact that the carts don’t have sand to fill your divots.

Fun layout. Not bad conditions.
For the price, can’t beat it. Some really fun holes and definitely a lot of birdies out there. One of my favorite courses in Austin.
