La Cantera Golf Club
About
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.

This is an interesting course
I had a great time playing this course for the first time. The greens put fast and are in excellent shape but can be tricky to read at times. The fairways were excellent and the layout was always changing. Even though it rained on us we still had a good time. I would like to play this course again on a dry day.
PGA tour quality
Superb shape for this time of year. Very good service.
It is a tour quality course as is the sister course. Also very nice vistas from most holes
OUTSTANDING!!!
It was great to play on a course where the "big boys & big girls" play! The cost was incredible, as was the shape of the course. Can't wait to play again!
Excellent greens and fairways
Fairways and greens were in perfect condition......greens rolled true with an ideal speed. Tee boxes had a little moisture to allow winterization grass to grow in, but still in great shape. Overall course conditions were excellent. Staff and beverage servers were all very friendly. Always fun playing this course when the opportunity comes up.
Perfect Course
A must play in SA! Great course, challenging but fair. Great scenic views with the most elevation of any course in San Antonio. Always in perfect condition and helpful friendly staff.
Sweet track
Some challenging shots but not intimidating. Lovely views, especially of the amusement park adjacent. Great, first class staff. 4 hours and 1 minute to complet a Saturday round - not bad in this day and age. The wild turkeys all over the place are pretty cool.
This Course Lived up to the Hype
I had some reservations about playing this course. I have wanted to play La Cantera for some time but always hesitated trying to get on the Palmer Course. What a mistake on my part. If the Palmer Course is better, it must simply be golf nirvana!
This place was 10's all around. The GolfNow rate below $40 was a complete steal. The course was eminently playable. The greens were so good. Several 3 putts made me appreciate how good the "Pro's" do it on TV. Nit-picking, the bunkers were a lil inconsistent. In the course's defense in had rained the previous two days. This is a must play and I can't wait to go back!
Scenic, fun course
I like this layout a lot. There are plenty of elevation changes and plenty of things to look at. I lost more balls than I'm used to but whatever. I'm not used to greens with so much grain and they were slow to my taste. The staff is great and the bottom line is that it was very fun! I recommend this place.
Excellent golf course
The course is a "must play" for trips to San Antonio
Must play for all locals and visitors to SA area
Great deal and value. My tee time was at 11:30 and got the Hot Deal for only $50. Worth every penny at this rate. It would be difficulty to pay full rate from now. Highly recommend to everyone.
Andy from Canada.
WILL BE CHALLENGED ON THE GREENS
AS USUAL, THE COURSE WAS IN VERY GOOD SHAPE AND THE GREENS WERE EXTREMELY FAST, AT LEAST FOR ME. GREAT GOLF LAYOUT, AND VERY SCENIC FROM TEE TO GREEN. CLUB PERSONNEL ARE FANTASTIC. GOOD PRICE.
Great deal.
For the twilight rate it is a steal.Stay off the black tees your not good enough and you will slow everyone up.
One of the best in SA
Considering the drought we're going thru in San Antonio this is one of the few courses that still manage to keep the fairways and greens in excellent condition, As always awesome staff and great facilities. Definitely recommend it.
Pretty good overall
The course was in good shape. But the greens were extremely slow!
Poor service
The course was fine but don't get hotdogs on the way to the 5th hole. Girl served them completely cold, got attitude when asked for a sandwich instead , then screwed up the register keeping me from returning back to golf for 10 extra minutes.
beautiful long course
My first time playing here & the staff treat you like
Royalty.
had so much fun I can't wait to come back.
Great course
Conditions were great. Our starter, Bob, was great giving us lots of information and getting us off to a great start. Great views on the course and would recommend this to anyone.
La Cantera Resort Course
Great course. Used to hold the Texas Open, before the TPC San Antonio was built. Loads of elevation changes, no 2 holes feel the same. Riding is recommended as the tee boxes and greens are not close together. Bring plenty of balls and watch out for rattle snakes if you go in the woods searching for an errant shot....
Big Miss! Terrible Shape
Think the title says it all. Don't waste your time and money unless your a hacker. Greens are terrible conditions along with tee boxes. Pace of play to slow for my pleasure as well. Lower the price by 1/2 price and call it a muny course!
