About Sonesta Bee Cave

The Sonesta Bee Cave is located 20 minutes west off Austin off Highway 71 in the Hill Country Galleria, home to a collection of shops, bars and restaurants. There is no golf course onsite but there is shuttle service to the nearby Lakeway golf courses, including public Falconhead Golf Club, and the hotel does have some limited access to the private courses at the Clubs of Lakeway. The Sonesta Bee Cave features a large, outdoor courtyard pool, 10,000 square feet of meeting space and a 5,300 square foot ballroom. Lake Travis is minutes away where a marina can be accessed, and world-famous Hamilton Pool is also a short drive away. A highlight of the Sonesta Bee Cave is not only the galleria shops and restaurants but the hotel's own rooftop Meridian 98, which features cocktails and specialty plates in a lively setting that hosts live music.

spectacular course that is in poor shape

Falconhead is a great course that has not been taken care of and is known as the "tournament course"...they seem to have a tournament every day, which means the course is really beaten up...the day we were there they rushed us around the course for another tournament and made my guests feel we had made the wrong decision picking Falconhead...in general the staff at Falconhead is great...whatever the special in the clubhouse - you should order it - Falconhead has a great kitchen and kitchen staff...

Hill country vistas this rolling, open and challenging course has deep bunkers raised greens

With Texas Hill country vistas this rolling, open and challenging course has deep bunkers raised greens. The signature hole the #17 is worth the wait. This course is not a water course but you will not miss those types of holes with only the 17th a direct challenge. All other holes effectively use flag placement, raised greens and deep bunkers with several very unusual bunker layouts in the fairways.

Great round of golf

Really enjoyed playing this course for my first time. Nice facility with a pleasant and helpful staff. The tee box variety allows a broad range of skill levels to play. Course was well-maintained and had a nice layout.

Definite recommend

Course always seems to be in great shape when I play it. Cost on weekend mornings without GolfNow discount is high. Definitely good value with GolfNow.
Homesites are mostly set back and do not intrude on course.
Holes 16 and 17 are most appealing, with 16 being a great risk/reward hole.

one of the best in austin

this is one of the best courses in austin. the 17th is a great hole. there really isn't much else that needs to be said. it's definitely worth treating yourself to the higher price point for this great course.

She was my first...

I'll always remember this course as it was my first. I'd been running a local golf tournament for a half-dozen years before finally taking up the game myself. With just a few group lessons under my belt I was able to get onto one of the teams in my tourney and this happened to be the course we played that year. I subsequently hit my first house on #11 (I believe).

As for the course, it's been in fine shape every time I've played the course. It has it's fair share of challenges and a bit of elevation changes to work with being on the west side of Austin on the edge of the Hill Country.

If it's in your budget, then I'd certainly recommend you play it.
