Spread across 200 scenic acres of rolling meadows and steep hillsides, Hill Country Golf Club offers 27 scenic holes of championship golf. Designed by renowned architectural firm Arthur Hills & Associates, Golf Digest considers it one of Texas’ best places to play. Each course covers a beautiful landscape of native oak, wildflowers, and cactus. The Lakes Nine is obviously characterized by the clear blue lakes that come into play throughout the course. There are also wooded ravines and strategically placed bunkers throughout the course for even more challenges. The Creeks Nine, named after the creeks that meander through the layout, this course demands accuracy with water coming into play on several holes and numerous strategically placed bunkers. In addition to the three nines, Hill Country Golf Club also offers a putting green and driving range.

Parking issues.

Course was in phenomenal shape, greens were a bit slow but due to recent rain and being early season they were in good shape. The main issue I had was lack of information about a college golf tournament being played at the same time as my tee time. I literally had to park 1/4 mile away from clubhouse because of the tournament spectators and team busses. As a paying customer this is unacceptable. At least have shuttle busses for people using remote parking areas. I got there an hour before tee time to be able to hit some balls and putt only to be rushed out 40-45 minutes early to get ahead of the tournament. For a course that charges nearly a $100 I felt I was just a burden to the staff.

A well maintained course!

I was a member here for several years. As I have aged, my golf has suffered through injuries and health issues. This course was better than ever! The fairways and greens were fabulous! It was soooo nice to putt on well rolled greens! Kudos to all of the staff!

Very Good Course in San Antonio

This was one of four courses we played in San Antonio and we really enjoyed it. The layout was really good on both nines (Creeks/Lakes) and the course was mostly in good shape. The greens on the Lakes nine had just been aerated and sanded so they were bumpy and slow. It definitely affected play on that nine. The Creeks nine did not have that issue. Probably worth checking with the pro shop on which nines' greens are in the best shape when you book.

Round with the fellas

Great round was had. I’m from South Texas and do not have courses at this level of greatness. Played oaks and creek. Tee boxes were in great condition and so were the fairways. Bunkers in the fairway and not anywhere near greens made things tricky. Great sand in there though! Greens have seen better days on some holes but still in great condition around the hole.

Afternoon Round

For only $45 this place is a steel ,they easily could of charged $150 .I had a fantastic Turkey Melt and fries for only $12 at the 19th hole before the round and then used the championship practice areas to get me ready to enjoy a wonderful piece of San Antonio's Hill country . The course had several tee boxes so if you wanted a challenge it is there . not that i spent much time in the sand but when i did they were filled with crushed oysters i think that just threw the ball out next to the flag . We all had a great round and look forward to going back .

Decent all-around

We were the second group out on a Sunday morning and it still took 4.5 hours to play. Never saw a course marshall. The course was in really good shape and the greens rolled beautifully except for a couple divots and one gopher hole. The only bad part of course condition was the bunkers looked like they hadn’t been raked in a week. Paid $80 to play and it was a good course with lots of trees and a few doglegs to make it interesting. I honestly can’t remember one hole from another as they all seemed similar. Somewhat monotonous but still a good course. Didn’t see a real “signature hole” on the Creek/Oaks nines for a photo op. Still enjoyed it.

Price

Price was more than listed on golf now. Paid what they said was the booking fee. Price listed was misleading. Will never play here again. May not ever use golf now again because they listed a price that was not the actual price. Very disappointed.

Greens were in great shape, but i think they need to trim back the trees on some of the holes. It seems the trees are closing in and making it very difficult on some tee shots.

Fun day

Visiting from out of state, very good condition for this time of year. Staff very friendly and helpful, especially John at the starter hut who shuttled me to my car after the round.
I had to park in distant lot as the primary lot was completely full. A bag drop would have been helpful as I had to carry my gear from the distant lot on arrival.
