Shoots in the 100s

This is an amazingly scenic course that is very challenging for a beginning golfer. I have played this course twice and have loved it both times. I hate courses that you can see every hole from Tee #1, this is not one of those courses. Watch for cars if you slice the ball!

Customer Service

Shoot in the 80s

I always look forward to playing this course. It is not very long, but it is very challenging. It is a very hilly golf course. There are three par 3's were you have a large drop to the green from the tee. It is a beautiful course, that is always in good shape.

I just played it last weekend, and the fairways, tees and greens were in great shape. The only problem is that the greens were rock-hard. It is almost impossible to hold these greens. Several times, I hit pitching wedge(balata ball) to the green, only to see the ball bounce(like it hit pavement) and land well behind the green. The only way to hit it close is with a run up shot, but the contour of the greens makes that pretty tough.

All in all, this is a very fun course to play. Higher handicappers will be very much intimidated at first. You can lose alot of balls here, as is the case with hill country golf. You do not have to hit the ball long here, but you better have your putter and your short game working to score here.

Shoot in the 90s

Great changes in scenery. The course goes from flat to hilly, to cliffs, all the way to a van, down by the river. The river looks great and the course is always maintained very well. I love the huge drop offs to the par 3 greens. A fairly wide course, but not easy due to elevated and/ or hidden greens that are tough to read. Higly recommended especially for the price. $25 during the week with mandatory cart. This is not a course to walk unless you like long hikes to each hole, usually uphill. Bring lots of balls. My only complaint, which is minor, is that each tee box has zero indication of what hole you are currently playing. I like some type of plaque with the different yardages and a picture of the hole, but that is just personal preference. This is a must play course. Enjoy.

Customer Service

Easy to make tee-times and good customer service. This course does not allow half-carts so if you are a single, bring some extra money.

The pro shop is undergoing renovation so it will be bigger and better. Good snack bar and friendly staff.

Shoot in the 80s

Pine Forest is has to be one of the most scenic courses in Texas with hills, canyons, tall pines and the Colorado River. An outstanding value and one of the best to play in Central Texas. Once your on the green, find the River....read your putt....look again....watch everyone in your group putt....read your putt AGAIN....then stroke it. Lagging skills a must to keep your score down. Straight hitters will shoot better than the long knockers here.

Customer Service

Friendly staff and easy to get tee times, esp. during the week.
