Crystal Falls Golf Club

Crystal Falls in Leander is a friendly place with a challenging canyon course. A few times I've used the Golf Now App to play 18 holes for $36 before tax and fees. Springtime golf is when the courses in the Austin area are a lush green. The topography and elevations make the course a special treat. This course never gets boring and always keeps me thinking course management. The pro shop is well supplied. The golf carts have convenient GPS, but no USB plugs. They have recently contracted with the Cork and Barrel restaurant for their food services. The food is very good and the menu has plenty of options. I have enjoyed the Smash Burger, the Fish and Chips and yesterday I grabbed a hot dog to go between the 9th and 10th holes.

We secured a tee time online with their stated price. When we get there, they raised the price; and they did it with a smug face knowing we wouldn't walk away for $12. Terrible customer service. The course itself has gone downhill. It used to be a good course considering the drive to get out there. Greens were bumpy. They've been in better shape. The pace of play is horrible. We quit after 9 holes. No marshalls to speed up play. I thought I saw one marshall fishing out golf balls in a pond. We were headed for a 6 hour round. No thanks. Overall, it was a terrible experience. We will not be returning for a while if at all. Hope they can fix the problems because that course has a lot of potential.

This course has great bones and amazing potential! Let me be very frank and honest this course needs about five to $10 million worth of investment. It is sadly overgrown. There is no cure to this course at all. It is not manicured it does not look presentable. Beyond that the greens are in decent shape, although some of them are in very bad shape. Weeds abound! And wow this course is not expensive and a worthwhile play. If you’re just looking for cheap way to get out, it does not compare to really good golf courses and people who really want to play good golf
