Delaware Springs Golf Course
About
Named after the springs that snake through the layout, Delaware Springs Golf Course is a scenic links-style track that is one of the better values in Texas golf. The low prices and friendly service, combined with a picturesque and challenging golf course, make this a Hill Country favorite.
Architects Dave Axland and Dan Proctor built a natural-looking course that fits the terrain perfectly. The course is nestled into the rolling hills and oak trees along the Highland Lakes, playing 6,891 yards from the tips. During your round you’ll encounter lush fairways frequently loaded with bunkers, large greens that slope severely, and numerous bump and run shots. The designers added a few original touches, such as the descriptive Scottish names for each hole (the 18th is called "Hame" for the home hole).
Another interesting design twist involved placing the signature hole as the opener. Playing 504 yards to a par 5, no. 1 is best attacked with an iron into the left side of a sloping, tree-lined fairway. The creek cuts into the landing area, making it a testy tee shot. The second shot must bend around the dogleg to the left and over the creek, and the approach is into the green shaded by large trees on the right.

Golfer Reviews
Fun day!
Fairways and green were in good shape (smooth and firm) making for some very nice drives. Firm greens made it difficult to stop a ball when you wanted to but created a lot of laughs for our group 😉
Nice Course Good Value
Overall I’d recommend this course. It’s a good drive from Austin but worth it if you’re not in a hurry. The layout is pretty and the course conditions were an 8 out of 10. We zipped along the front nine but suddenly ran into long waits on every tee box on the back nine. Overall good experience.
Always fun - Always a challenge
I had not played this Course in a number of years. And my memory hadn't failed me. I had a great time challenging the Course. The Course is well-maintained; fairways and greens were cut, bunkers were raked (which speaks to the type of players here as well as Course maintenance).
I again found my challenge to be the greens. The Course is pretty straightforward - keep the ball in play and on in regulation is easy. The greens I feel are fast; they roll true but the breaks are subtle, especially on shorter putts.
Delaware in the Fall
Course in fairly good condition. A few greens with some bad spots.
Noon group
Your noon group you had at Less 6 foursomes
playing and I’m behind them and pace of play is I unbelievable
You should place at less a hour before the next tee time so the groups playing behind them are not waiting ten minutes to play next hole
I was literally waiting ten minutes at every green to tee off

It’s always a great day at Delaware Springs golf course is always an excellent condition. Staff always friendly as ever especially Jennifer just a great time at everyone and when I say everyone just me.
Pace of lay
To many player trying to play golf and they can’t hit the ball more than 150 feet not yards and they are teeing off from the blue tee box so the pace of play is horrible
Courses need to stop 8 minute between tee times
When you got foursome that can’t the the ball and are over the fairway looking for balls for 10 minutes it starts backing up
It’s a know ending cycle for the whole round
Poor management
Great course and nice people BUT terribly slow as we had to wait on every hole as numerous 5 balls were playing in a NOON day competition that's apparently a daily thing- this spoilt the day- should not be allowed anywhere
Delaware Springs
Course in great condition. Good early morning pace on a Sunday. Greens in fantastic condition. Staff friendly.
Great course
I play this course a lot it has some hard holes that demand good shots but some holes you can take advantage of with good shots pace of play is generally good I highly recommend playing this course
Place of play
Why are you allowing 6 people to play as a group
The group of six were all over the fairways and then I had a twosome in front of me that were also slow .
I went ahead of them and never had to wait for anyone till I got to the 2 hole
The management need to come up with a rule to play list to give you when you check in
Eight minute intervals is way to short it needs to be at least 12 minutes
People need to learn that they are not the only one playing
