It's a cool property, and they make their own vino right there. There aren't many spots where you're likely to land one among the grapevines. A little bit of elevation change, and some water in play. It is pretty long and a lot of holes are fairly open. There are a few wooded holes, and some large stands of trees to work around.

Par from the blue tees is 65, with 5 par fours and 3 par fives. Two tees per hole so you can shorten it up if you want to. Red tees are par 62 with 6 par fours and 1 par five. The long set are concrete, and the short are on rubber pads. The baskets are Mach X, and were all in good standing. There is a map near the first hole, and tee signs for each hole. It's a John Houck design, so you know he will optimize the available landscape.

The first hole is fun, it's an elevated tee, with a couple of trees to either side that require some shot shaping. The basket is planted atop a wine barrel raising it up a good 3 feet or so. Hole 2 is a nice one with a hill just tall enough to hide the basket from view from the tee. Several trees reside on the bit of grass where the pin is set. Hole 3 is also an elevated tee and has a basin to the right side but luckily it was dry when I played. Hole 6 and 7 are long ones that play under and around a fair number of trees. 6 is more under the canopies of a few scattered trees with open stretches in between. 7 has a strategic landing zone with dense, tall trees that you need to pick a side to get around. The long tee on 8 is a tough drive, followed by a couple of big open field drives before crossing the creek to a basket in under mature oaks. 9 is a cool hole that plays a gap in the trees and crosses a the creek bed.

10 is another long one, playing spot to spot with heavy trees in spots, and open throws if you can avoid them. 11, 12 and 13 all play short distance, and through trees with a elevation. 15 is a pretty cool tee shot from the top of a hill. The final hole is a sphincter squeezer from the long tee. You have to play over the pond, and it isn't easy to judge how aggressively you want to play it to maximize distance, especially if there is a breeze. From that point, you can play a shot along the edge of the water, or go for it crossing water again to the opposite shore. Not a bad way to finish it off.

A couple of the holes are largely wide open, sometimes they serve as connectors that are a bit bland. 4 is a putter shot between plots of grapevines, with only a power line pole to play around. 14 is pretty long and mostly open crossing the grass.

I did have a bit of trouble finding the first tee. The walk from hole 9 to 10 is sort of long. You'll find some shade sporadically throughout the course, but you will get plenty of sun. Water and sunscreen will come in very handy.

I am really glad we made the drive from Austin to play this one on our visit. Houck courses are some of the best in my experience, and there is enough to work with to layout a fun and challenging design. It is worth the money to check this one out. A nice drive along the way.

We didn't try the wine, perhaps that's how I managed to go even par on the round. I got 4 birdies and 4 bogies, par on the rest.

This course has a bunch of fun challenges. From some moderately wooded holes to open holes to holes where water comes into play. There are a few tee shots where the window you have to throw it through is defined for you (triple mando and trees). The two sets of tee pad and some holes with two baskets make it fun as well as long as you understand which route you are playing. Having a pro shop with Neil there as a resource is a huge plus as well.

As other have said below, the tee pads, baskets and signage are all top notch.

Not much comes to mind. To be picky, I threw a combination of long and short tees and the par on a few of the short holes seemed a little generous (open and less the 350 feet should be a par 3).

For sure the disc golf itself is really good, but the setting of this course at a winery is great. The views are fantastic and the people were really friendly. If this course were closer to Houston and the roads weren't so winding to get there, I would be there all the time.

Very well maintained course
-Short and longs holes?tee boxes to please all types

BEAUTIFUL course. I just kept taking pictures because every time I turned around there was a picturesque view. Rolling hills, vineyards, trees, flowers, everything looked great. This course is well designed for the most part. Placement on tee shots is demanded and the longer holes require at least 2 good shots to earn the birdie. There is plenty of elevation change throughout the course to keep things interesting.

I love the MachX baskets. The long tee boxes were concrete and the short tee boxes were rubber. Both sets of tees played great, although some of the short tees were very short. The signage was great with diagrams of the hole, par, and distance. Course map was posted behind the pro shop. Scorecards are available at the pro shop with a map on it, along with distance, and pars.

Trash cans placed throughout course.

The course figure eights back at the parking area/pro shop between the front 9 and back 9. That makes for a great opportunity to pit stop for water, snacks, and restrooms in the air conditioned wine tasting room.

There is a pro shop with a small supply of discs for sale. They have their own logo stamped on a few discs that you can purchase. They also have discs for rent for those that don't have their own discs to play with. You lose it, you buy it, is the policy though. There are a few opportunities to lose discs too. The pro shop also manages a lost and found, so you could potentially get any lost discs back eventually.

The biggest "pro" is that you can bring your lady friend to a vineyard/winery AND you get to play some disc golf too!

The first time I played here it was overcast so the heat wasn't too big of a problem. The 2nd time, was a sunny, 90+ degree day and the heat was a major negative factor. Much of the course is out in the open without shade to stay cool under.

There were several short holes, especially on the short tees/short pins layout. They were fun and made for several ace runs, but they were a bit out of place amongst all of the par 4's and 5's. I'd prefer to see more challenging 2's on this course and not so many easy 2's.

You can't bring in any outside alcoholic beverages since they have wine for sale.

For me, I'll only play here once in a blue moon since it is about 4 hours from home. Because of that, the $15 charge ($20 if you aren't a PDGA member) isn't bad for me. That would be too high of a price to play here often, in my opinion. They do offer a $60 annual membership to receive unlimited play for one calendar year. If you knew you were going to play here enough, the membership would be an awesome option! Members also receive discounted tickets to select events throughout the year and 5% off wine by the bottle.

The grass was taller on holes 15-17 than the rest of the course when I played. I narrowly avoided stepping on a snake on hole 17 because it blended in so well to the taller grass.

I typically throw several forehands in a disc golf rounds on the courses that I'm used to. I found myself only throwing a handful of forehands in the 3 rounds that I played (shorts and longs). More often a long turnover shot was more conducive for the distance needed and the shape of the shot. I think that would translate to a lack of lefty shots, but I wasn't looking for the lefty shots either.

A few baskets are placed precariously close to drop offs that lead to water or are placed very near water, so there are multiple places where putting a disc in the drink is a possible outcome. However, I didn't lose any discs and never felt like I was put in a situation where I didn't have the option to keep my disc safe and still score well. The water was very clear and shallow in some places, so getting your disc back wouldn't be too difficult.

UPDATE:
I played this course in June of 2017 when I initially wrote this review. Upon playing again in July of 2018, my opinion of it has changed slightly. I gave it a 4.5 initially. Updating that to a 4, but really, I'd go with about 3.75 if that was an option. The course was not as well maintained this summer and the water that was there last summer is mostly all dried up. The rough was very ROUGH and there are places you can easily lose a disc unless you are willing to go rummaging through dense foliage laced with bull nettle and poison ivy.

Last summer my wife just walked along with me and threw a few shots along the way. This summer, she played from the short "tees", at least that was the plan. We had forgotten that several holes don't have a short tee, but rather a short basket position. That left us playing to different areas and not able to enjoy the round fully together. We had to separate and meet back up at certain places. I wasn't a big fan of changing up the layout midway through from short and long tees, to short and long baskets, even last year when I played it for the first time. I was definitely not a fan of it this time through with having to separate from my wife on several occasions. This is defintely a glaring design flaw in a course that I would imagine many couples play together as it is on a winery.

The heat, combined with the rough, unkept places on the course, and having to split up on several occasions, made this 2nd experience here much unlike the first great experience the previous summer.

My wife and I played here on the way back up to Fort Worth from Austin. So glad that we did! This course is beautiful, challenging, and fun! My wife loves vineyards and wine tasting, so this was the best of both worlds for us both. We took advantage of the "Wine and Disc" package, that was only $15 for PDGA members. That got me greens fees for the day and got my wife a wine tasting. We ended up buying 3 bottles of wine which got us another free wine tasting so we both were able to sample the award-winning wines. There was also a $35 dollar option that included greens fees, a pizza, and a wine flight.

I played one round from the shorts and one round from the longs; and played them on the same go around to get the full feel for what the course had to offer.

We actually ran into John Houck after we finished the front 9 and got to talk with him for a little while about the course. He just happened to be there at the time that we were playing which was a fortunate coincidence. John introduced us to the owner who was a very nice guy.
