La Cantera Golf Club opened in 1995, when it also hosted one of the oldest PGA Tour events, the Texas Open. It is no wonder the spot was chosen, with its numerous natural water features, mature oaks, and limestone rock outcroppings it provides the perfect terrain for a challenging round. There are also 75 white sand bunkers strategically placed throughout the golf course. In combination with the spectacular views provided by the course’s elevation changes, the course has quickly gained favor as one of the best public-access golf courses in the country.

They kick people off the course when sun still up

Just had the most unpleasant experience at a course I very much have enjoyed playing over the years. We were coming off 16 green and had plenty of time to finish the final 2 holes when out of nowhere Juan or Jose from the pro shop rolls up and says “the course is closed, go back and turn our carts in”.

First of all, I’ve been playing golf for over 25 years. Been on countless golf trips and have played thousands of rounds.

Not once. Not ever one time. Have I ever been kicked off a course with plenty of daylight to finish your round. Finish what you paid good money for.

Second, I was having a really good round and was excited to finish and have a full round in the books.

This guy was relentless. He blocked the cart path to the 17th tee and waited to escort me to the clubhouse.

Mind you, there are multiple groups behind me that he is neglecting to kick off the course. The ones that probably had no chance to finish. He’s not worried about them because his sole purpose now is to harass me.

So I ask him. What’s the big deal?? Plenty of daylight. What’s his problem?? He says the course closed at 530. I ask when on earth was that guideline shared when I booked my round. He said it’s in my booking. Nope.

Then I ask what he plans to do if I tee off. His response. I’ll call the cops to come take you away for trespassing.

God La Cantera. Y’all want to treat customers like that?? Good luck lasting in today’s society treating people that way.

Elevation changes for tee boxes and fairways!! Super awesome and fun golf course!

The resort golf course is imo a much more fun course to play than the palmer course. Although the Palmer course is also absolutely phenomenal, the resort course offers stunning views and drastic elevation changes which really change the game if you're not used to playing in such conditions. The golf course is really fun to play and the staff make you feel like royalty! Enjoy a nice shot of tequila at the bar located next to the clubhouse store before an amazing round!

Excellent first round.

From the time we walked into the club house until we dropped off the cart the staff was super friendly and helpful.

The course was in magnificent shape

Everything about this round was excellent.

I will definitely be back and I will recommend this course to everyone I know that plays the game.
