We came for a family member's birthday, and she made sure my daughter who was 10 y/o was able to go…read morewhich she was. It was a little distance from S. Austin to this location and when you pull in it is a little sketchy from the outside. You will not be disappointed once you go in. She reserved the smash room and prior to the room you are fitted for the outfits to smash in. You wear them over your clothes so we were looking like construction workers. When we got in the room they asked if we had any music request and were able to Bluetooth it. They go over the rules and you will get I believe 3 warnings and I will say my daughter got a warning for dropping the mallet. They have everything you need to smash and you are able to bring in items also. The people who reserved it after us brought in a bunch due to bulk pick up just happening. Something to think about if you choose to go. I intended to go back with just my daughter and do the paint room and other things they had but we haven't made it back since. Hopefully we will go again in the future.

On 1/29, my best friend and I booked a rage room to celebrate her birthday and release some stress…read more Unfortunately, the experience ended up being more stressful than cathartic. The reservation was made earlier in the week. We arrived at 12:20 PM, 10 minutes before our scheduled time, and found the door locked with no staff present. No signage, no response. When my friend called the listed phone number, a man answered and said he was stuck on the south side of San Marcos due to an accident and would arrive in 15 minutes. He showed up 30 minutes later. When he arrived, he brought an elderly woman and two dogs. One of the dogs immediately jumped out of the car and approached us in a parking lot that was visibly covered in broken glass. This felt unsafe and irresponsible, especially for the animals. He let us inside and offered "free upgrades" to make up for the delay. That goodwill disappeared quickly once we saw the condition of the facility. The interior looked nothing like the photos or walkthrough shown on their website. The space was run-down, messy, and felt genuinely unsafe--more abandoned than operational. Upstairs, we were shown lockers and dirty, visibly used coveralls that we were expected to wear over our clothes. The rage room itself was already filled with debris and leftover broken items from previous groups--far beyond what would be expected or safe. It was clear the room had not been cleaned or reset. He then told us he planned to clean the room while we were outside doing our "upgraded activity," which turned out to be smashing printers because he did not want to carry them upstairs himself. We asked what the plan would have been if he had arrived on time. Rather than answering directly, he became defensive and said he expected us to be "more understanding." At that point, it was clear there was no preparation or plan in place. We decided we were not comfortable continuing and requested a refund. He appeared relieved by this decision. As we were leaving, the elderly woman followed us outside and attempted to show us an email claiming they had notified us earlier that they would be late. She said she could not call because they did not have our phone number. If your booking system does not collect phone numbers, that is a flaw in your process--not the customer's responsibility. I strongly recommend avoiding this business. The concept has potential, but the execution, cleanliness, safety standards, and professionalism were severely lacking. I would be genuinely concerned about someone getting hurt--person or animal--if conditions remain this way.

We all were in sweaters and wrapped in blankets and still uncomfortable. Also the restrooms could use an update. They are small and limited.

Absolutely enjoy spending time there. Covered courts were packed headed into early evening and tennis filled up as the sun set. Lovely place to be.

Fantastic idea with incredibly poor execution. The facility is beautiful but outside... Really!!…read more I was looking forward to them coming to Buda for so long and then I see the final product and there's not one pickleball court inside. I think this is what happens when you get a bunch of players that come together and create a business. That or the business is a front. The other major flaw is their business model. There is almost never any players there partially because their ridiculous initiation fee of $300. I'd consider paying $100/month which is their monthly due but the initiation fee is outrageous especially because they hardly have any members. If nothing else, they should waive that fee until they have a significant enrollment and be grateful for anyone willing to play outside in the summer. The facility is beautiful and the staff very welcoming and knowledgeable but "What were you thinking!!!" ... Outside... C'mon Man!!!

Highly recommend!…read more We went with about 18 kids ranging from 8yrs to 11yrs old for a bday party and only a couple had done it before. The rest were excited and nervous - just like the parents. Nick our referee was absolutely amazing with the boys and made sure they all understood the rules and took the safety instructions seriously. He connected easily with them which put me at ease. Nick also answered all their questions and repeated the rules when we were at the fields. We then had cupcakes, food and drinks right after at the picnic tables. There is also a porta potty there.

We all had fun and most importantly we all stayed safe. We were all a hot mess afterwards, but they were kind enough to provide us with trash bags to cover our car seats.

I normally don't post reviews at all, but I feel like other families in our community should know…read moreabout our experience with Dripping Springs Racquet Club's private pool rental. We rented the private pool for our son's 2nd birthday weeks in advance. In the days leading up to the party, I called multiple times with questions. No one answered. I left voicemails. I called again the day of the party. Still nothing. When we arrived, the pool was completely green, covered in algae and debris, and clearly not in a condition that was safe or appropriate for a children's birthday party. We had to scramble to completely change our plans while trying to explain to a group of excited toddlers why they couldn't swim. What disappointed me even more was how the business handled it afterward. Rather than immediately apologizing for what happened, taking responsibility, and acknowledging how upsetting it was, their response was defensive. They suggested we had "differing perspectives" about the condition of the pool and emphasized their maintenance procedures instead of addressing the condition that was right in front of us. They also criticized me for mentioning a charge dispute and public review instead of recognizing why a customer would be frustrated after an experience like this. Yes, they refunded the money, and I appreciate that. But a refund doesn't replace a child's birthday party, the time and effort that went into planning it, or the embarrassment of having guests arrive to an unusable pool. I'm sharing this because accountability matters. Mistakes happen. What defines a business is how they respond. An immediate apology and ownership would have gone a long way. Instead, I was made to feel like I was somehow the problem. I'll let the attached photos and videos speak for themselves.

For the past 3 years, the Westwood Country Club has been host to the ATX Open, a 250 level WTA…read moreprofessional women's tennis tournament here in Austin, Texas. I decided to make a visit for 2025 to see what it's all about. Let me run down some details... For a 250 level WTA tennis tournament, the player field was full of well known contenders. This year they had Jessica Pegula (consistent Top 10 player), Petra Kvitova (2x Wimbledon champion), Ajla Tomljanovic (famously defeated Serena Williams), Peyton Sterns (hometown hero from the University of Texas) and other top 100 players competing. I attended for 4 days including 2 days of qualifying rounds and the first 2 days of the main draw. Unfortunately the first Saturday of qualifying was rained out so they packed a full day of doubleheaders onto Sunday with matches lasting well into the evening. Then I was surprised by how light the schedule was for Monday, but then returning Tuesday had all the big names and players back on the courts for my final day. The Westwood Country Club uses 3 courts for competition. The Stadium, Grandstand and Court 11. Then there were Practice Courts 1, 3, 4, 5 and 12. The Stadium is beautiful. It's built beside a rustic brick player clubhouse. It exudes old fashioned charm. Capacity is 1700 with spectators having their own seat backs. There were no bleacher style benches. Players enter the Stadium coming from the Food Court area in the back. When matches are completed, players return towards the Food Court and it's a good opportunity for pictures and autographs. The Grandstand is situated next to the Stadium and offers 6 - 7 rows to accommodate fans. You can stand and watch the action near the Cadillac Club venue where there's plenty of shade blocking the sun from trees stretching over the court. Btw...the Cadillac Club is a drink/food venue to socialize while watching the Grandstand action up close. Court 11 was confusing. It's located opposite the Grandstand. To reach Court 11, you walk up a hill and underneath the stadium stands to get there. But, there are no seats for watching at Court 11. You must stay on your feet, but the closeups of the tennis were unmatched. And...Court 12 is connected to Court 11. Practice Courts 1, 3, 4, 5 aren't too accessible to the fans (imo). They're pretty covered up with windscreens and I found it difficult to judge who was practicing on them. There were a few electronic monitors scattered around the grounds mentioning which players would be practicing on which courts and at what times. That was helpful but the problem again was that it was hard to watch players practicing due to the sharply tinted windscreens. It was $10 entrance fee for each day of Saturday and Sunday Qualifying Rounds. It was $20 entrance fee for Monday and Tuesday of the Main Draw rounds. I purchased tickets on my phone at the tournament's website...atxopen.com. I then added the tickets to Apple Wallet. Unfortunately, they don't have an App yet for the ATX Open. I'm believe that will change in future editions. Parking for Qualifying was at the HHSC Winters Building - 701 W 51st St, Austin. Parking here was free of charge. It's then a 10 minute shuttle bus ride over to the Westwood Country Club. Starting on Monday for the Main Draw, spectators parked at Camp Mabry (a military base) for $10 each day. Camp Mabry is located at 2200 W 35th St, Austin. It's then a 5 minute shuttle bus ride from Camp Mabry. You can also buy tickets for parking at atxopen.com. Some last extras.....during different intervals throughout the day, there were player Q&A's and autograph sessions for the fan experience. The Food Court area was composed of 4 - 5 Food Trucks. Behind the Grandstand was the Gift Shop. Prices for merchandise were typically high as they are now for all tennis tournaments. I paid $40 for an ATX Open tennis t-shirt. Hats and souvenir towels were $40 as well. Overall, I enjoyed the ATX Open and it's a good warmup tourney before the start of the Sunshine Double (Indian Wells and Miami). The quiet surroundings around the grounds made it feel like an intimate setting for fans. I was able to get up close to some of my favorite players which was rewarding. In the end, I think the Westwood Country Club is a fine venue for hosting a WTA 250 level tennis tournament. Although this was just the 3rd edition of the tourney, I anticipate it'll remain here in Austin for years to come.

Came out here for the ATX Open. Lovely venue to watch tennis. Drink prices were pretty outrageous,…read morebut there were food trucks that were semi reasonable, although some of the snack foods were already running out fairly early. The bathroom situation isn't ideal for large crowds so be prepared to wait in line. But taking an Uber/Lyft in and out was fairly easy, and can be an inexpensive way to watch some professional tennis!
