Olympia Hills Golf Course is very exciting and enhances San Antonio's reputation as a golf destination. A unique combination of natural topography and man-made mounds and bunkers make this a super course. Native South Texas vegetation and golf course grass seed formulations on fairways and greens will provide state-of-the-game playing surfaces. The views are spectacular, with several holes playing to greens well below the tees, while other lead to a significant rise to reach the putting surface. Fairways, which on some holes are tight, are often sloped and guarded by bunkers. The tips will not be played by the faint hearted, but with four sets of tee boxes, the course can be enjoyed by all levels of players.

For the love of the game.

I love playing golf. It's a humbling game. I've learned that you can not be in a rush. Patience is important. Saying that, pace of play is an issue for some folks at this course. I reside in Florida and was in Texas for a few days. I can not compare Florida golf to Texas golf. Pace of play was 45 minutes behind. I was not in a rush so it didn't bother me.

The track layout was nice. Conditions were not top tier but it was ok. Staff wasn't the friendliest.
For the price it was good. I had gotten a hot deal and had a coupon. If I had paid full price I wouldn't have had as good attitude about it.

I wouldn't recommend this course to my friends and will not be heading back here as a paying customer. If it was a complimentary round then I would play it for sure. You get what you pay for.

If you are an experienced lower handicap golfer stay away from this track. Higher handicap new golfers this is the place for you.

Course is a little over priced. Play is to slow. Should not allow five players. Marshall needs to do a better job of monitoring.. Especially when group of three and two or stuck playing behind.

Will Play Here Again

My entire group was impressed with the course layout and challenge. I’m a 15 hdcp and thought the course offered a nice challenge without beating you up. For the money, this is a good value in the San Antonio area, but the greens do need some work. The employees were all very nice and is the main reason I will come back.

Over watered greens were super soggy

They definitely need to space out the tee times because this Friday was way over crowded. They ran out of carts so plenty of people were complaining they had to walk down to the practice area.
Carts were not being delivered until 5 min after supposed tee time.
When you did start playing it was a hit & wait fbecause there were 3 groups on each hole.
2 playing partners had never played here & they will never come back because it took 45 min to play the first 2 holes.
The greens were so over watered that balls were cratering upon landing and there were spike marks and ball marks all over every green. They were mushy and slow. The greens definitely need to be re-done; there are weeds growing on every single one. Cart girl only passed by twice the whole round.
There was also a wedding so we had to drive reverse upon ending and disturbed every group we passed plus added more time to our 5+ hour round. There needs to be major changes.

Pacing

We were following a group of 3 that waits for the players infront of to leave the green before hitting their drives on a par 4 when they can’t even hit the 150 yards marker..and yet they don’t even let us (2 players) to pass through them.They do more talking than playing.

Good course for this area but I dont think I'll play it again.

Got paired up with 3 other blokes. The other two's cart kept stopping because the gps mapping was off and I think it affected one guys game because he became irate and started throwing clubs.

Course did have some pretty holes but I am not a fan of all the blind shots and bunkers. They try to take the driver out of your hand on most holes. The blind shots are dangerous and some idiot actually hit a ball that richochted off of our inside the cart.

The other problem was the greens were too shaggy and the ball was not rolling out very well. I came out wanting to shoot a good number but I left so many putts short due to those thick, soft greens.
It was fun but I'll probably never play it again because its a long ways off and I dont care for the layout.
Cheers!
