About
Falconhead Golf Club sits just west of Austin in the midst of the scenic Hill Country, tumbling across a rolling landscape covered with knobby cedars and towering oaks. The challenging layout was designed to PGA standards, making it one of the most popular public golf courses in the area. The greens are fast and each is protected by at least one bunker. The golf course offers an interesting variety of holes that will require the use of every club in your bag. On windy days, the lengthy par 4s are especially tricky. Golfers will be faced with a variety of challenges on this course including dramatic uphill approaches, forced carries, blind shots, and doglegs. There are also meandering creeks that crisscross the course and a number of ponds that come into play. Falconhead Golf Club's signature hole is the beautiful par-3 17th, which will require your most accurate iron.

Up and down
I live in flat florida and love to come to a place like Texas to play courses with many different elevations.
Golf good but slow and little amenities
Course is good. Some of the better greens in the area. Sand isn't great but better than most.
Range and practice facilities are terrific. Highly recommend.
Pace of play is always slow, expect a 5 hour round. Backs up on #2 and you'll be waiting every hole after.
Little food options and seems understaffed. it's a 50/50 shot you're able to get a hot dog or a drink at the turn. Food options and service is a huge opportunity for improvement.

I didn't give the Off Course amenities a good review because I had to leave right away. I prefer hitting range balls from grass. Greens were greatly improved from last time i played!

Great course!
Other than being charged for my wife to ride with me on the cart, which is ridiculous! The course was very challenging by great. We really enjoyed it. We’ll definitely be back whenever visiting the Austin area again.

Consistent
Falconhead is consistent, they are always just above average but not blowing your socks off. It is a great course. They handle tournements and events well. They always maintain a level of quality that you'd expect from them (but nothing more). Not a complaint, I am not complaining this is a solid 7 of 10 review and they have kept that for years.

Fun at Falcon-head
Had a great time playing at Falconhead…. Challenging course in very good condition …very friendly staff as well
Beautiful Course...but a 5-some?
First time playing Falconhead and the course is awesome! Unfortunately, we were stuck behind a 5-some that was two holes behind after 9 holes. We didn't see a marshal until about the 14th hole so the damage was done and the round took over 5 hours from an 8:30 tee time. Other than pace of play, the course was in great shape and was a great layout with lots of elevation changes and prefect greens.
Thank you for your review, apeezy23. We will pass along your positive experience and feedback to our team at Falconhead Golf Club. We look forward to seeing you again soon.
Very good course even better staff
Course is great staff is friendly even though some of the golfers are douchebags. Brenda is the best! She always has what you need.
