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.

Fun and beautiful

We found the course challenging, as it being a previous PGA tour site. Some holes you need to be cautious about laying up and some have a elevated tee where it is bombs away! The views are spectacular and we enjoyed ourselves tremendously. Being a municipal course frequenter, it was nice having car side bag service, so bring extra cash for tips. Definitely recommend

Great course

This is a great course, I always love both coarses at La Cantera but usually feel a little better about my swing after playing the resort course. And you have to love hitting into a canyon next to roller coasters.

This course is a great place to play!

This course is a fantastic place to play. The staff is the best around. From the second we pulled in to the time they brought us our truck, it was all about us. I've played several courses in and around San Antonio and this was by far the best so far! The course it self was just amazing!! Breath taking views and amazing greens just set the tone for a great day. I work at a golf course and I tried to find defects but came up empty handed. This is a course I can't wait to play again. The course isn't so challenging that an average player couldn't handle it. There are some deceiving greens that will certinly make you be on your "A" game though! I will defintly recomend this course to every golfer I know!

Fun layout

I played this course while vacationing in San Antonio. The course had a few very fun short par 4 holes, including one with an elevated tee hitting toward the roller coasters of the neighboring Six Flags. Conditions were great - being mid summer, the course played firm with a lot of roll. The course was set up to be relatively easy and golfer-friendly - I would have preferred a few more challenging holes. Overall, a nice resort course that I was able to play at a reasonable rate.
