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.

In process of remodel

Unbeknownst to me the course was under going a resort remodeling and routes around holes and many holes were temporary greens or changed completely.

Not sure if remodeling will be an improvement for golf as much as the reaort.

Decent while under significant repairs

The course is under significant repair/renovation. I wasn’t aware upon booking however, course was playable. Several holes with significant alterations but not specified during check-in. Communication (at start or check-in), of course condition & alterations should be enhanced.

Under construction

one third of the course in under renovation and that's a good thing. I've played there several times. What is upsetting is Golf pass did not alert that this was happening. Had I knew, I would have gone someplace else.

The course was not in good shape (the playable part, watering desperately needed. Greens were OK, traps were very nice and staff was helpful, esp since there was temporary golf cart paths thru construction, fairways with greatly shortened lengths with those annoying, "hey let's make a green right here in the middle of the fairway..."

This normally is a well maintained Resort course here is San Antonio. Right now, the muni's here have this resort beat!

Under construction

This is a really nice course but right now they are doing construction around the course adding a water area for the resort

Some of the holes are shortened and some are confusing on where to go now

I suggest getting all the information before you can about the changes before playing. Hopefully when the construction is done will go back to the normal course.

Thought it was great!!!

Went in thinking it was going to be horrible from previous reviews. Knowing they were under construction and some holes shortened and one temporary green. Greens were great would hold a shot and still super quick. Fairways were dormant but not an issue. Some tee boxes were a little weak but other than that had a great time. Played in just over 3 hours with a group of four. Can’t wait to see how everything looks after construction is finished.

Just a great golf course

Wonderful layout, challenging but fair. The greens are good but winter conditions exist. The Oaks 9 is a strategists' dream. Direction and distance are a must. Construction and renovation is ongoing presently. No practice putting green. Driving range is limited to 140 yards.

Terrible turf conditions

Fairways are rock hard with poor turf. Rough is burned out with lots of bare areas. Every green is a different firmness. Course conditions are worse than many, if not most $30 munis. I recommend you avoid this course.

Golf Course Not in Playing Condition

I did not know that there were major construction work being done on the course. They should not be charging that kind of money because of the condition of the course. Many of the hole have been torn up. Customers should be informed about the construction and given the choice of whether they want to play or not. My money could've been better spent.

Quality Experience

The layout of the Oaks is extremely challenging in that you must place your tee shot well to avoid tree obstruction to your approach. The greens are well manicured and contoured to excite the best of putters. The fairways are fair and well kept. We played a 3.5 hour round in our threesome.
