Sonesta Bee Cave

It was a great course to play and the conditions were good, but unfortunately the pace of play was extremely slow. There was no Marshall on the course to monitor the pace of play which was frustrating as there was an 8-some playing three groups ahead of us. We were over 5 hours by the time we got to the 18th hole which at that time it was too dark to finish. It’s too bad that this was my first experience to golfing in the Austin area.

Falconhead was in good as shape as I've ever seen it in 10 years. April 2025 ... wonderful conditions!

I wouldn't take my dog here. Absolutely criminal to charge $175.00 to play here. I would not go back for free! Golfnow please remove this place from your offerings.

Liked the course layout and green topology, but not worth $145 for the round. Pace of play sucked, 5.5 hrs but no course Marshall doing anything. Better courses for $145

Pace of play was good - a four hour round on a Wednesday. Course conditions were good. Greens are very large and almost excessively undulated, and the flags were placed in what seemed like a H.S. or college tournament locations; further, they seemed to roll too slow. Some bunkers had good sand, others had what seemed like partial or complete packed dirt. Tee boxes and fairways were in good shape, although there were several “under repair” staked-off areas on some fairways. The pro shop staff stated that they had never seen a golfer be able to purchase a bucket of balls on the GolfNow site, and were reluctant to honor it; they asked if I had a receipt and honored it after I found it on the GolfNow site. Overall, a good experience.

Played a 2:24pm tee time. Pace of play on the front 9 was about 3 hours with foursomes stacked on top of each other. Difficult to justify paying a full weekend rate with the course playing that slowly.

Have played this course regularly since 2007. My last experience (Dec 8th) was bad. Rained a ton before my round so I tried to cancel (or at least get a raincheck). It was within 24 hours of my tee time. Pro shop wouldn’t do either. Conditions were miserable. Flooded bunkers and fairways. I understand the cancellation policy, but when it comes to bad weather, you have to be more flexible. Not everyone wants to play in sopping wet conditions.

Between this and stacking tee times every 9 minutes apart, Falconhead seems to care little about the customer experience. It’s all about milking every dollar they can. Didn’t used to be this way.

I golfed this course today and after reading some of the recent reviews I was concerned about my tee time. When I arrived the staff was awesome, they greeted me and even pulled up a cart for me. They explained the course and things to watch out for as well as an update on the course conditions, which I have to say were excellent. Greens rolled very fast and true and tee boxes and fairways were perfectly maintained. I would golf this course over and over again especially for the cost of $64 for a round at I would say a 4.7 rated course. The ground crew staff does a great job maintaining the course. I highly recommend this course!!!

Signed up to play 18 holes the Tuesday before Thanksgiving and left after 9. Front 9 took over 2:45 to play. Every hole had 3 groups on it; pace of play was horrible. Understand the course trying to maximize revenue before holiday but spacing groups out so tightly takes away from enjoyment in playing the game. Course itself was in very good sahpe.

We played at midday on a Wednesday. The whole experience was mediocre. We arrived one hour early to rent clubs, grab a bite and warm up on the range. We paid the green fees, but were told the range was closed, but we could chip and putt. (Aside, range balls were an extra charge.) We went to the bar to order breakfast, and were informed that they had sold out of breakfast. Whatever that means. Ok, we'll chip and putt a little to warmup Nope, actually all facilities were closed. So we. waited for our round, and played a pleasant, if slow eighteen. We ended the round 30 minutes later than indicated, and we waited on every hole. There was a a marshal tooling around in a cart, but not sure what good he was doing. Course was in good condition. Saw the drinks cart a few times, no substantive food on that either. Don't show up hungry.
