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.

Good Layout, Nice Greens
Layout is good. Not many tee options between black and blue! One is too long and the other is shortish. Greens rolled nice and a fair test of golf. Carts were in excellent condition and the pace of play was average. No marshals to be seen anywhere.

Great Layout, mediocre management
Falconhead is a great layout, and I'll continue to play it. They run the course on what seem to be 5 minute tee time intervals, and the average round is well north of 5+ hours and not a ranger in sight. Course tends to be in acceptable shape, but could be amazing with the layout.

Good coarse pin placement is a bit ridiculous
Hole 3 pin placement was one you had to pick up on. Ball would stay on green

Tee Time through Golf Now
Hot Deal through Golf Now was 39.99. Total fee after
tax etc. $48 00 Staff was very accommodating and the facility is golfer friendly. Course was brown dormant bermuda, which is to be expected in January. greens in good shape and shape, ball rolled true and fast enough.
Nice course but too expensive for me without Golf Now.

Aggravating pace
Played this course once before and liked it. Heard a ton of people gripe about it going downhill but I figured I’d give it another shot. Quit after 9 after tracking a 5+ hour round. No Marshall to be seen helping keep pace. Greens are just Ok.
We apologize for the pace of play issue you experienced. We always try to keep a great pace when having our golfers on the course. Thank you for taking the time to give us your feedback as we will use your review to better the experience going forward. We hope you give us another try in the near future!

Great course unfriendly staff.
Falcon head is a beautiful, fun course. However, on this day one of our players had to cancel due to child care issues. I advised the staff of this and was still charged a fee for the no show. I understand that it’s policy but when it’s mid week and the course is not busy, I don’t see why this was necessary. Also they decided to water the greens while the course was being played. Over unhappy with my experience on this day.
Thank you for taking the time to review and leave your feedback on your recent round with us. It is always our utmost goal to provide our golfers with a fun and enjoyable time and we apologize if we missed the mark. Please feel free to reach out to our staff in the pro shop with any additional concerns. Thanks for choosing Falconhead Golf Club.
