i phoned to ask condition of greens and told they were good. i thought some of them were very poor especially around the edges of the greens. they were quite fast. i would not play again until greens are sorted out. delaware springs is nicer.
Thank you for taking the time to leave a review. We apologize for the conditions of the greens that you experienced. We appreciate your feedback and will take it into consideration to improve our course.

Course was in good condition save for a couple greens, however seems like the staff is working on many improvements.

Course is in good shape and on its way to great shape. Just need to keep doing what they are doing and it will be a super nice course.

Great Value, Excellent Layout
I love this course. Personally, I think it has the best layout in the whole Austin area, and the pro shop and starter are the nicest people you'll meet at a course. It's an excellent value for the price. Small range, but has alot of chipping areas. Although there are 6 temporary greens, the course is still very playable. For a hot, Texas summer, the conditions are still pretty darn good. I can't wait to play it again when those greens do heal.

summer in central texas
4 or 5 temporary greens. Several greens had missing grass. All the boxes and most fairways where good. But all courses are hurting on the greens right now. Of the greens that are not temp they were excellent.
Thank you for taking the time to leave us a review. We apologize for any inconvenience you may have experienced due to the temporary greens and missing grass on some of our greens. We appreciate your understanding, and we are glad to hear that you found our fairways and non-temporary greens to be excellent.
Fairways
Great course to play with several ponds, great pack saddle views and great fairways. Grenns are being worked on to get inline with the rest of the course.

Need to let people know if there are temporary greens
I like Lighthouse CC. I enjoy the course layout a lot and have a lot of fun playing there. The holes are interesting and while the conditions could be better, for the price, it's usually worth the drive.
Usually.
I was very disappointed when, after an hour and a half drive to the course, I discovered they had six greens closed due to weather damage from December.
I'm the first to admit I'm no turf grass specialist or course superintendent, but it's hard to believe you can't get grass to grow in Texas nearly 8 months after it died.
Setting that aside, why wouldn't you put that in your course description on GolfNow? Or put some sort of alert in the reservation system to let people know? (Yes, I have mentioned this to GolfNow, so I'm not only blaming the course.)
It was exceedingly frustrating to drive all the way out there only to discover a third of the greens were closed.
Beyond all that, the pace of play yesterday was atrocious. Where were the course marshals? My son and I walked the front nine and still had to wait on every tee shot and every approach for a two-some in a cart in front of us.
Honestly, I'm not entirely sure I'll be back since I'm moving even further away and driving two hours to discover I'm not playing the course as intended would be intolerable. It's a shame, though, because I genuinely do like the course.

Thank you for your review, TooPeezy. We will pass along your positive experience to our team at Lighthouse Country Club. We look forward to seeing you again soon.
Nice layout but greens need a lot of work
Admittedly they advertise they have a few temporary greens (about 4 or 5), but the non temporary greens are in poor shape.
Staff were great. There Was a mix up where golf now should not have allowed me to book as the course was closed to host a private tournament, but because we had driven 3 1/2 hours and had pre payed they let us play anyway. Despite the tournament, it was only a 4 hour round.
Hello,
We appreciate you taking the time to leave us a review. We would love to know how we can earn those last two stars next time! Thanks for playing Lighthouse Country Club.
Coming along nicely
Course is really shaping up. A lot of greens repair is underway and I love that the owner is taking care to provide golfers with a good putting surface. Looking forward to the next several weeks when the course should be in great shape.

Greens
Greens succumbed to the winter freeze. Probably each green is 80% very playable. Bad spots are being repaired. Lighthouse is still my favorite of the 14 courses we play in Central Texas.

Poor greens
Seems that all the greens caught a fungus… some holes have the green in the middle of the fairway.
