7 Indoor Simulators for Austin's Gross Rainy Days

Southside Golf Co

Manchaca · TrackMan 4 Bays

Three TrackMan 4 bays in a converted warehouse south of Slaughter. Southside Golf Co is the most low-key sim spot in Austin — no velvet ropes, no $18 cocktails, just clean bays with tour-level radar and a lounge with pool tables. PGA instruction available, leagues running, walk-ins welcome when a bay's open. The vibe is closer to a buddy's garage setup than a golf bar, and that's the whole point.

Five Iron Golf

Downtown · 12 Bays · Coming 2026

Not open yet, but worth watching. Five Iron Golf signed a lease for a 13,500-square-foot flagship at 501 Congress Avenue — downtown, ground floor of The Loren hotel. Twelve Trackman bays, a full bar and restaurant, duckpin bowling lanes, Callaway club fitting, and league play. If it follows the playbook from their NYC and Chicago locations, this will be the biggest indoor golf destination in Austin when it opens late 2026.
