Hidden Falls Golf Club is a Leon Howard design that opened in 1974. The course cuts through a pecan grove on the front and what seems like an ocean of water on the back, creating two totally different golf experiences. Howard uncharacteristically left out water on the tight, pecan-lined front, with the wet stuff in play on only one hole. However this one pond plays a role in the best hole on the course, no. 4, which features a pond and waterfall in the landing area off the tee. No. 4 is rated as the most difficult. The more open back nine is dominated by water. No. 10 starts off with a drive of 200-yards-plus over the pond fronting the tee. A small creek comes into play on the next three holes, which lead you to the other signature hole, no. 14. Water lines the left side of the 14th, and the approach is over a small pond. If that's not enough, the final three holes all feature water in play off the tee.

A great time

This is a great value! The course isn’t long but it has a lot of character. Speaking of character(s), the staff is what separates Hidden Falls from everywhere else. David and his team go the extra mile to insure your experience is top-notch.

Good Course, almost Great

The staff was very accommodating and friendly, pace of play was average and the greens rolled true but a tad slow. The course has benefited from all the rain we’ve had recently. That rain appears to have provided the good grass and the weeds lots of nutrients. After a couple weeks of playing catch-up with the mowers and rollers I think this course will be firing on all cylinders. I’m looking forward to another round soon.

Great staff, challenging course

First off, the staff in the clubhouse and restaurant are the best, combined better than any course I have ever played.

It was rainy, then misty off and on with a cold front that came in while we were on the back 9. But still enjoyed this course.

The course requires you to think about your tee shot on a majority of holes, you cant go in and just try and hit it as long as you can, that will get you in trouble. (especially the back 9).

I enjoyed the course and definitely want to play when the weather cooperates.

They over-seeded earlier in Oct., so the tee boxes, greens and fairways need a mowing soon but understandable given the over-seeding.

Great burger and fries in the restaurant.

Gimme Some Water!

Needs some work. I think their mower is broken? Hard to tell the difference between Fairway and the Rough. Tee boxes are like a jungle. Greens need to be rolled and weeded. Other than that, the Layout is pretty fun.
