Additional Info:
    Just west of Austin, stands Falconhead Golf Club with a course that truly rises to meet the promise of its handsome site in the famous Hill Country of Texas. This is perfect land for golf, and Falconhead is the perfect layout for the land. From our knobby oaks and cedars to our rolling hills to our creeks and ponds, we have a golf course that stands above others in the area. What makes our course particularly special is that it was laid out by the PGA Tour Design architects and has been designated as a PGA Tour Signature Series CourseTM. So you can be sure that every inch of the layout measures up to the exacting standards of the PGA and that the course will offer you the same kind of quality golf that the pros experience.
Directions to Course
Falconhead Golf Club is conveniently located a half hour or less from most places in the Austin area. We are on the west side of Austin near the town of Bee Cave. From Mansfield Dam -- Go south on R.R. 620 past Lakeway Boulevard and take a right on Falconhead BoulevaRoad From downtown Austin -- Take Loop 1 south and exit on Westlake/Rollingwood and then turn right on F.M. 2244. Continue driving on F.M. 2244 until it ends at Highway 71 and turn right on Hwy. 71. Follow Highway 71 until you reach R.R. 620, turn right there and continue for about one mile and turn left onto Falconhead Boulevard.

Summary:
I played this course in April of 2007 and it was in excellent shape and a great golfing experience. Unfortunately, this course is just not being maintained. It is one step above a goat ranch -not what I would expect for $79 greens fees. If you want to be extremely disappointed and feels like you have been ripped off, play Falconhead.

Reviewed by: howler, Shoots in the 80s

Summary:
Falconhead is a very nice course that is open to the public. The course is not tight, and does not have a lot of housing development, so spraying the ball is generally not a problem. There is almost no water, and not many sand traps to content with (1-2 per hole). It is generally an easy course to play, and the conditions are very good almost year-round.

Customer Service:
Courteous staff, nice facility.

Similar Courses Played:
Any nice public course.

Reviewed by: divotman, Shoots in the 80s

Summary:
A very scenic, and quite challenging course. it opened 2 years ago. some blind shots, many rolling hills come into play throughout the round. signature hole is #17, a par 3 with the green on a rock shelf overhanging the creek below. check it out on www.falconheadaustin.com

it was designed by the PGA, and is the only PGA Signature course in Texas. course knowledge will help with stategy the next time i play here, which will be often.
