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
Hill Country Georgeous
Beautiful day in the Texas hill country. Great course conditions all the way around. It’s important that you play from the correct tees based on your ability.
Local municipal course
Local municipal course. Challenging layout, no bunkers, everything was green and the greens were in good shape. Lost liquor license so bring your own drinks and snacks for the course since the bar is closed.
Fabulous layout
What a great deal for a challenging golf course. Place of play was quick, course was in good shape. I will definitely play there again. Would recommend playing if you have not played Crystal Falls yet!!
Now a hackers course
Lots of people who hack come to play this challenging course. If you hack, please hack in the range for a few more months. Look for 5.5 hr rounds with the group in front of you hitting 3 balls a piece and the group behind you comin up on every tee box blarin music. Good luck but love the course. Greens are in phenomenal condition for the summer time.
Great little course and you have to know where you be and where not to be.
Quirky
Most holes are blind tee shots. Two 3 pars are off drop offs where there is no way to choose a club. Tilted fairways. Greens nice but hairy and slow. Beautiful views and course but nearly unplayable unless you play here alot. You better know the course well and bring your A game.
Four hours and 45 minutes to o play teeing off at 8:20 is not enjoyable
Course was in pretty good shape. Price is good they just need to stay after people to stay up with the group in front of them. Their pace of B play is 4 1/2 hours which is to slow and makes for a very long slow day
Potential of a great course!
Was charged more than what was quoted on the golf now site!! Site range was closed and only way to know was a taped piece of paper on the door when we got there at 7am. No beverage cart guy/girl, a nice cold Gatorade and snickers would have been nice. There was no food options available open when we made the turn. On one hole they were aerating the green and staff would not get out of the way causing the group behind us to begin hitting up on us the rest of the round because we had to wait for the home to clear.
Beautiful views
Interesting layout with beautiful views and elevation changes. Very tight off the tee on many of the holes. Better bring a lot of extra balls if you’re not driving it straight. I don’t recall a single sand bunker. For a public course it is maintained about as expected. A little rough around the edges but I would play again. Greens were patchy in places and very very slow.

It's a great little course. The pace of play wasn't too bad. I have played here for years.
Nice place to play
Course was fun and for the most part was in good shape. There were a few greens with bare and sandy areas but for the most part greens were in good condition. All of the staff was very friendly would play here again. Just wish they had facilities for food and drink
