First time at this course. Will be back

Nice layout and challenging. The GPS system helped immensely.

Typical Arthur Hill design which keeps me guessing on and off the greens.

Great Course and decent pace of play

Played this course in March 2020 and took over 5 hours to play. They do not have a Marshall. Just played it again and managed to finish in 4 hours. Course was in very good condition, challenging and greens in great shape. Would definitely play it again but it is expensive unless you get one of the Golf Now discounts.

Good day to golf

Weather was perfect for a round at this coarse,greens and fairways were groomed properly (no complaints from me on the coarse),greens were groomed nicely and were a little more difficult to play for me because my game is not the greatest,very challenging on the putting end due to changing slopes on the greens (was a good change from the normal coarse I okay though) was a lot of fun to play, only bad thing I have to say is the foursome in front of us need to okay somewhere else ,when you pay for a course like this you don’t want it to take 5 hours to play,(not the courses fault )!!!!other than that it was a good challenging coarse

Wolfie you listened!! THANK YOU!

In my last review I touched on the fact that wolfie is my favorite course in town, but lacked the finishing touches that were needed given that this course isn’t cheap. New rules on the carts discussing pace a place we’re a relief to see! THANK YOU! Letting people see that there are time limits is great to see especially for new golfers that don’t seem to understand they MUST keep a pace! Had a group respect speed of play and let us through! Finally! We need more people like this! I APPRECIATE groups that see they are slower and have no problem letting someone through! NEWBIE golfers in Austin this is for you!! Letting faster players through is GOLD and appreciated more than you can imagine. Bunkers were finally up to par and the greens rolled PERFECT. Staff was so kind as they have never had an issue in this department. Also! Great to see the staff following Covid- 19 rules unlike SHADOWGLEN. Where on multiple occasions the staff recklessly failed to used masks when ringing people up in the proshop. Courses that follow COVID-19 rules actually care about their patrons. Thank you wolfie for taking care of your patrons!!!

Best Public Course in Austin

The hospitality here was fantastic. I was paired with a member and his guest. They were very friendly and helpful. The course is in great shape and greens rolled true. Each hole has its own personality which kept the strategy varied and fun. The pace of play the day I went was impacted by five groups that were part of a wedding party. I finished the round in 5 hours. I would go again.

Lots of character

The course was in good shape and fun to play. The only issue were the tee boxes getting scalped and the tee set at very back of the box. Practice area (range) was also under repair. The GPS on the carts were very convenient and most accurate distance.

The lounge was closed, so no chance for food and drinks after the round.

Wolfdancer doesn't disappoint

What a great track!

The pro was gracious and welcoming. Explained in great detail how the to get our bearings for the practice tee and the first hole. Even moved our tee time so we would have a bit more time to warm up.

The conditions were as expected for a course of this caliber and expense. The layout seems wide open as you first view the holes. But, as you navigate the course you learn that placement of your shots was more important than distance.

Each hole had interesting and challenging aspects that gave you choices on how best to play the hole. The greens were firm and slightly faster than average speed. Perfect for a resort course. The front nine seemed a bit more natural in the layout with more elevation changes and undulating greens. The back nine seemed more of a resort layout while still keeping interest with fairway bunkers placed in perfect locations to offer risk or reward.

I was slightly concerned given there were some unfavorable reviews. Thank goodness I paid little attention to them. As I was very happy to hand over the more than $100 to play this course.

I'm a 5 handicap and this course was challenging enough for me to be happy with my score. Whereas my brother at a 20 also enjoyed every aspect of the course.

Would recommend to anyone if they are willing to play the correct tees for their game.

Amazing Hill Country Golf

If you want some amazing views, and a course without houses lined down every fairway, this is the course. The fairways and greens were perfect, but I think they were reseeding the tees because they were not great and all brown. Lots of blind shots which makes it difficult for a first time guest, but the GPS carts helped, and playing with a member. Overall a challenge for any golfer and the seclusion and conditions were amazing.

My one complaint would be the absence of a Marshall or anyone maintaining pace of play. We were a twosome stuck behind two foursomes that must have come straight from the frat-house. Young guys who were shotgunning beers greenside, and literally swinging and missing multiple times in a row. For the money you pay to play here, I would have expected someone making sure this doesn’t happen.

Good but not great Trac, and next to no service from the staff. Overall, just not $150 around golfing experience.

Local knowledge of the course will help

Tee: The can be long depending on the Tee Box.

Fairways: generously wide, however, some holes are need local knowledge of the course to get a better score.

Greens: are fast and undulating. to gimmes here. gotta be firm with your putt.

Well Maintained, Very Challenging Course

Wolfdancer is a well maintained course in the hills of Bastrop county at the Lost Pines Resort. The greens were exceptionally fast, felt like US Open conditions. This is NOT a beginner or high handicap course. I skipped the 2nd hole because of 2 hackers that lacked the golf etiquette of knowing when to let someone “play through”. Fortunately the course was not crowded on a Monday afternoon, and when I finished hole 18, the starter not only agreed to let me go play the 2nd hole, but let me to play the first hole again as well. Very friendly staff. Course is tough with rolling hills, deep rough and fast greens. If you like a challenge, play Wolfdancer.

Practice facility lacking in cleanup items prior to tee off. Very uncommon for a “top rated” facility. No club cleaners or towels or club racks on practice facility. Tee boxes “ beat up” ... and most graduated tee markers missing....! 4 tee boxes to maybe 2 or 3 or 4 you guess when you get to the box. Come on Wolfdancer, if you are going to charge premium basics are required.
