Front 9 are short – the back 9 open up and are longer. Original 9 installed in 1987, South 9 installed in 1989. The course reopened in July 2015 after a $200,000 facelift which included signs, markers and enhanced concrete tees thanks to the City of Austin PARD and especially Mike Olse. $5 parking fee weekends – free parking under highway but be very careful crossing busy road.
