Swing good and play smart

Practice good risk/reward skills and stay in the fairway. Undulating greens and challenging slopes make putting the game.

Long Track

It's a long but pretty wide open track. They just seem to struggle with keeping the greens

Par three

Has one of the best looking par threes I have played. The greens were not as good as before they had been punched with the big holes an was really hard to play.

PGA difficulty but scoreable

Pace of play was very slow - took an hour to play the first three. On #3 the group in front of us took a solid 40 minutes on the hole. Drizzled from 11 - 18. Incredible facility, staff could not be any better. Best greens I have played.

Wet round at Falconhead

Great interesting layout. Lots of testing lies and shots. Rewards good golf... In good condition for the most part after the torrents of rain the course has taken (few washed out bunkers and trees down). Range was closed. Not quite 5 stars but still one of the better courses in Austin. $75 is at the top end of what I would pay for this course. Other courses of similar quality can be had for less.

Great course!

Fun layout, beautiful views. I thought the fairways, rough, and sand traps were in pretty good condition. The greens were super fast, which is fun, but they were a little bumpy. I will definitely be back to play again, enjoyed it. Hopefully they get the greens smoothed out. First time I played there everything was in great shape. Maybe I just caught them at a bad time. I wouldn't let the bumpy greens keep you away from this course, they weren't that bad. Go check it out!

Best public course in austin

I've always heard great things about falconhead and finally made the trip. It's easily worth the $50 we paid. Got a hot deal. Best greens in Austin right now for sure. It's very peaceful and relaxing out there. Would love to play this course on a daily basis

Perfect place to play

This was my second time playing the course and the experience was great! I booked a hot deal through golf now and was treated as a guest regardless (not always the case at nicer courses). The course is well kept and the staff is helpful.

Great Layout

Course is great in both design and condition. Pace of play was close to 5 hours, had to wait on almost every shot. I expect this from the Austin muni's but I expect more when paying close to $100 a round.

Love this track....

Falconhead is one of the premier courses in central Texas. It is quite difficult with side hill lies, elevation changes, and undulating greens. If you are willing to score a little higher but enjoy a great course then Falconhead is right for you.

Will definitely play again

The staff was friendly, the practice facilities are great. Wanted to check out the hype. Not a tough layout but definitely the longest course I've played in the Austin area, many elevation changes. Not complaining, actually very welcoming, it felt like playing back in Colorado. Greens in good shape and fast for this time of year, fairways dormant and had way too many divots for the quality of course. Seemed a little over priced for off season golf. Overall, can't wait to get out and play again when the course greens up.

Bad customer service

Person answering the phone today could hardly bother himself with questions about green fee availability and hung up on me twice before I could book a tee time, in a hurried manner. We've all experienced this, the pro shop control freak, just the slightest bit of customer service would have been appreciated. I play here a several times a month and was considering a membership for the summer because I live 100 yds away in the heights, I'll have to rethink this due to the poor service. If you don't have a membership, this course is not worth the regular price.
