Hill Country Golf Club offers three nines, all of which sprawl across 200 scenic acres of Texas Hill Country. The terrain is provided with rolling meadows and steep hillsides dotted with tranquil lakes and ponds that come into play throughout the 27 holes. 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 Oaks Nine is named for the towering oaks that blanket the course. From wooded ravines to tree-lined fairways, this nine is a demanding test of accuracy. There are strategically placed bunkers and water comes into play on a few holes. The courses, which were designed by well-known architectural firm Arthur Hill & Associates, have received praise from both Golf Digest and Golf Magazine.

Rough conditions

I was surprised by the poor conditions of the course (specifically the greens). About 4 greens were barely puttable. I have played far better recently for far less money. It was my first time here after wanting to play for a long time. What a shame.

This course is absolutely not worth the money!!

We traveled from Dallas and have played similar courses in this price range in the San Antonio area and for this course to be $150 a person is a joke. I wouldn’t have played this course for $30. When we approached the staff about our concerns they simply just said they are waiting on rain…but their job should be to keep course conditions good and playable. These greens were terrible and tee boxes were poorly taken care of. They tried to comp our round and we simply will not even be coming back here again.

Dry and dead

End of march was dry and dead. No green on fairways and hard. Loosing some of the greens too. Worse condition course I’ve played in San Antonio. Didn’t used to be that way. Absolutely terrible for the high price!

I understand…but disappointing

I was really looking forward to playing the course. My wife and I visited the resort last year, but I wasn’t able to play.

However, yesterday was very disappointing…definitely NOT worth $100. I understand it’s still early in the year and everything is still dormant, but the greens had weeds on them and the tee boxes were mostly mud. The starter seemed uninterested, and wouldn’t tell me which 9 holes we would be starting on until right before we teed off. However, the young lady on the beverage cart was friendly and was the only one who seemed to care about our experience at your golf course.

Maybe don’t charge full price until the course justifies it.

Oh well…next time I’ll go back to La Cantera. Much better experience for the same price.

Worst Course and Experience

The pricing is ridiculous, the whole course is horrible, staff is unfriendly and have no golf etiquette. This course has really gone down hill year after year. Management has no idea what they are doing. No golf balls, no care for course or their members or guests. Stay away.
