La Cantera Golf Club

Course was in pretty good shape. 1st hole is under construction but over all it was a good day. Pace of play was pretty fast and greens were in good condition.

overall great experience, better weather conditions than previous outing. Greens were in great condition. Encountered construction work off of 1st tee...look forward to playing again.

This is a $40 a round golf course at best. Greens were in ok condition. Tee boxes were ok. There was construction on hole 1 so we had to go mudding to get to the make shift tee box that was on a down slant. The food was slow, overpriced and subpar. The best thing about this course was the view from the tops of the hills. Lots of reasonably priced golf courses in the area, try one of them instead!

Resort courses and PGA Tour venues generally don't go hand-in-hand. But the Resort Course at La Cantera is a rare play that's both easy swinging for vacationers as well as a true test for the game's elite. The Weiskopf-Morrish design hosted the Valero Texas Open from 1995-2009, and with holes like the stellar 12th, a narrow, long par 4 with a shallow, elevated green guarded on all sides, it's easy to see why. But stifling holes like the 12th are the exception and not the norm. Compared to the TPC San Antonio, mid-handicappers are going to have much more of a fighting chance around the greens, which are generally more receptive with a little more room to bailout safely from sucker pins. The drivable par-4 7th (a signature design trait of the team) is as fun of a hole as there is in Texas.

Rounded out with some lovely scenery and top-notch service by management company Troon Golf, La Cantera isn't going anywhere in the Hill Country golf scene.

The course was beautiful. The greens were impeccable... but... I read breaks very well, however it drives me nuts when a downhill looks uphill and vice versa. the practice green warns you what is coming, but unless you have a yardage book that shows the direction of the greens, plan on a lot of 3 and 4 putts.

After the front 9 we decided to roll a ball on the green before putting and it made the back 9 a lot more enjoyable.

The staff were helpful and friendly and made us feel welcomed. We like the layout of the golf course. The fairways were open and wide. The second shot required you full attention because you are either hitting up a hill or down a hill onto the greens. Great scenic vistas also. After a few holes we both came to realization the greens were unplayable. If you are putting against the grain the ball jumped then bounced and moved sideways. This conclusion about the greens was confirmed by a couple of single golfers that we allowed to play through. I asked them both if they were regulars at this club and both said yes. I asked what the secret to reading and putting the greens were? They both told us that this time of year you don't. Later we watched a two- some playing in front of us and we observed that once they were on the green they took two putts then moved on.
This was a really disappointing golfing experience because of the greens. I wanted to take my dad to a nice golf course since he was visiting from Alaska. We had plans to play the Palmer course later in the week, but no way.
However we both enjoy the scenic views and visiting with each other.

Great driving range.
The greens speeds varied widely from green to green, depending upon the grain. Make sure you account for that. Fairways amply wide.

Great course, challenging and course is in good condition.

STAFF WAS FRIENDLY. ENJOYED WARMING UP.
COURSE WAS IN GOOD SHAPE FOR BEING IN THE WINTER. WE HAD A BAD DAY FOR WEATHER. MY FRIEND AND I ENJOYED THE COURSE.

beware the false fronts on some of the greens; the ball will roll back a long way

Golf courses complain there losing business yearly DA. You can not expect beginners thru intermediate golfers to enjoy golf or new courses to pay your prices, and be rushed every minute to keep your pace. I will not play this course again for that reason only. If you have money to burn or some-one is paying your way, in a hurry,and excellent golfer play here. If this is your 1st regular golf course after driving ranges and lessons I'll see you on the public tennis courts or fishing.

Played in abnormally cold conditions. Course was challenging - more so due to 30 degree temps and wind! Lots of elevation changes. Staff was great. I'm not for SATX but I've played here, TPC, Canyon Springs. I'd say this place is between TPC and Canyon in terms of "polish" but I truly enjoyed all three!

As usual - I can find nothing to complain about at La Cantera. The people are always friendly and couteous, and the course is in great shape for the end of the winter. I know that I will play there again.

Green was in great condition and the fairway was in great shape. If you have not played must play

This is by far a top 5 course in San Antonio. Always enjoy this place.

Tee time with 3 at 1140A. Starter put a single with us who wanted to walk for the exercise. The first hole is 600 plus par 5 with a group in front of us. After the first hole the cart GPS indicated 7 minutes behind. Of course we are keeping up with the group in front. A single player came up behind us and we let him through on #3. We averaged 7 to 10 minutes behind the whole round when we were approached by marshal on #13 that we were stacking people up back on #8 who may not finish. The only groups we observed were two groups of two behind us. We tried to explain but marshal cut us off and advised to please pick up the pace. Lets just say the next 5 holes were not enjoyable. Finished at 405P which is under the 4 1/2 hour time they brag to keep rounds under. I won't be back here anytime soon on my dime.

Weather was gorgeous in mid January.
Course conditions were excellent. Excellent greens.
Great course and Golf Now made playing this excellent facility at a great valued price!!

I'm a beginner golfer and was fortunate to play this course during a sponsorship tournament. The group I played with was excellent. Course is awesome and challenging. Hole 7 gives you a great view of Six Flags and has you approaching the green from a cliff high above. Worth the play. Just have fun.

Great golf course, amazing veiws. It's worth it to go play.

My wife and I played. Good day of golf, we were paired up with two great guys and really enjoyed to the round.
