Forest Creek Golf Club

Pros: price was reasonable and even included a free dog, free beer and free small bucket. The staff in the pro shop was very nice, the snack bar not so much. Driving range is OK but we had to hit off mats. Fairways were good for this time of year. The greens are not great but they putted pretty true. It just looks like they are struggling to keep the greens healthy. There are some bald spots here and there. Overall, I don't think the greens were a serious drawback unless you are picky. Overall, we had a very enjoyable experience, well worth the green fee. This is an interesting track and some holes are quirky but fun. Recommended.

Fun layout, course was in good shape, overall an enjoyable experience!

Yesterday I played at Forest Creek and I have played here many times before. When I have played here before, if you reserve a teatime before noon, you’re supposed to get a deal for a free hotdog and drink and small bucket of range balls. They told me because I booked through GolfNow. They would not honor this deal when they have many times in the past. Also the greens were in absolutely horrendous condition. There were many bear spots or spots were grass was in very bad shape. They were not rolling even at all. The managers were also very rude when I tried to explain that I’ve gotten the deal many times in the past. For the money, there are much better courses to go to in the area.

Overall, it’s a good course. Some greens had some trouble spots on them, but they aren’t the worst I’ve played on. Cart girl came around twice within the first 5-6 holes, but none after that. Finally saw a different one once we were already on 18. Definitely need to stay on top of that as we would’ve been buying every time she came around. I’ll play here again and hope things are a tad better.

FIVE HOUR AND TEN MINUTE ROUND.

No marshal activity to fix the problem. Called pro shop during the round, and nobody answered the phone. And this was on a Monday. Makes for a very low probability of playing here again.

Tee boxes and fairways were in fair condition. Sand traps were in good condition. Most greens were rough.

Too much money for the conditions. Greene were in bad shape, lots of dead spots and pained dirt. Need to lower prices or get the course back in good shape.

Greens need help. A lot of areas need repair. Overall a good course. Played easily in 4 hours.

Thoroughly disappointed in the green condition at this time. Price way out of line to current course condition. I’ll give them a long break to get it together

Overall my two comments are the Pace of Play was a little slow, we approached 5 hrs. Second were the inconsistences in the Greens were not good. Each green was either Fast or Slow, Bumpy or Smooth, and you had to deal with one of those four combinations. I know with the winter we had some issues, which are inevitable, but this was pretty bad. I know they will get the Greens in good shape in a month or so, but I expected better.

Diseases all over the painted greens, tee boxes no grass which I can give pass due to winter months

Really not worth the price or drive. The fairways were barely fairways, and the greens were patchy and rough. If you live in round rock it could potentially be worth a quick round but if you live near Austin, don’t take the trip. HOWEVER the free hot dog and beer at the turn was a nice touch.

Every time I visit Forest Creek, I do have a great time. Staffs are friendly, especially starters and marshals.

Course condition was great, in my opinion, and the course does have challenging aspects so you're constantly motivated to play well.

One thing that I also like is how they provide you with hotdogs and drinks included in the price, as well as a small bucket of range balls.

Water is also included in the cart as well, something that many public courses stopped doing. You just feel like you're being treated nicely.

Last but not least, while playing golf, enjoy the surroundings and some really nice houses along the course :-)

Tee boxes and fairways where not green but there was grass out there. But all the the greens had no green. Just painted dirt. They don't seed with rye during the winter for whatever reason so the greens were bad. Mainly dirt and green paint.

Staff was so friendly and gave a great experience. Greens were not great, but as expected for this time of year. Layout was very challenging with some tight fairways. I don't recommend purchasing hot deal as it doesn't come with free range balls or free lunch with normal green fee.

Great course and layout - actually pretty tough but we played with some locals so got a lot of insight from them. It's February so the conditions were what they were..

Course was not in good shape. Greens looked like they had treated them with some kind of winterizing Fairways winter grass. Challenging course. Fun to play. Staff always pleasant. Love the free small bucket of range balls and free hot dog (even though I don’t eat meat).
