When you enter into Rockin' J Ranch you will drive through the gate and proceed past the sales office. Approximately one mile past the gate you will come to a 4-way intersection.  If you are only going to the practice range, you will turn right.  If you are going to the golf shop to play, you will continue straight through the intersection another 3/4 of a mile until you come to Jeff Vaughn Road. Turn right and you will drive 1/4 mile and the golf shop will be on your right.

Make sure you give yourself ample time to get to Vaaler Creek.  Plan on about an hour to drive the 47 miles from the Hwy 290W / Hwy 71 junction in South Austin.
