This is a beautiful course.

The weather was cold and wet. Miserable in fact, but the staff went out of their way to make or experience great. The course drained well and the rain slowed the greens enough for us to enjoy our first time there. Great layout.

Scenic Course

I normally play in Dallas so I am accustomed to flat. Many elevation changes and scenic holes on this course. Many holes very visually pleasing. The staff was noticeably extremely friendly. I played as a single in the afternoon and only waited on one tee box, very briefly. The course seems to be in great condition for a drought in the area, Lake Travis is practically gone. The greens were particularly difficult to read, very deceiving, but my skill may be a factor in that as well. Overall, a very enjoyable experience and I will return.

What a beautiful Course

The views themselves were worth the money. The course is in fantastic condition. Fairways(when I actually hit one) were magnificent. Bunkers had tour quality sand in them and played great(had a few bunker shots). The course is a challenging layout with some tough holes, some easy holes, some risk/reward holes, water, sand and trees make it tough to play and accuracy is a must. Play it, you will not regret it. But watch for the greens, fast and undulating.

Walked

Fun course, challenging if you miss the green.

I played as a single out here and had a great time. You have to land your approach shot on the green otherwise you are going to have trouble. The greens roll true and were very fast. I liked the layout and fact that even with smaller greens you could still attack the pin.

Overpriced

Even via Golfnow, we paid $89. Rental clubs were $55 per set and were well worn. Greens were bumpy with ballmarks everywhere. Then, to top it off, they permitted a fivesome of members in the group ahead of us. They may have been waiting as well since the pace of play is always an issue.

Falconhead

I liked it. Towards the end we did get behind some walkers that slowed us up. There wasn't a marshall speeding them up or asking them to let us through so, we went around them and skipped a hole. It was getting dark, and we wanted to get in as many holes as we could.

Great Layout and Conditions

Falconhead is definitely one of the courses you want to play in the Austin area. The layout and conditions on the course were excellent. The greens were smooth and relatively fast for Bermuda. You definitely need to watch out for the grain. My only nitpick is the gas golf carts and the clubhouse. The food selection for lunch was limited but well prepared. However, it was a bit pricey for the ambiance. Not a private club experience clubhouse wise but golfwise, it's well worth playing.

Falcon head GC-Best Value in Austin

Great layout. Excellent conditions. Very fast and true greens. Challenging from blue tees. Only the better players should play from hold and black tees or to will end up black and blue, with a smile.

Good day at Falconhead

Other than traffic, the day was outstanding. Staff is always extremely friendly and accomadating. Course is in terrific shape, and it wasn't very crowded. Falconhead may be the best value in Austin given the tremendous course and low green fees.

I enjoyed the course

This is a nice course. The fairways and greens are in excellent shape. The bunkers were wet and water standing in some that is expected since it rained the night prior. I enjoyed the course it a challenge but fun for a novice like myself.

Falcon #5

The first couple of holes of this course are challenging - so you need to keep your head in the game.
To me, the hardest part of Falcon Head is the greens. However, I played with one of the marshals and a club regular. They provided some really good insights into reading the greens and the overall topography. It really helped me on this course and it will help my overall game too.
I've played here about 5 rounds now - and I'll be back again.
