Delaware Springs Golf Course
About
Named after the springs that snake through the layout, Delaware Springs Golf Course is a scenic links-style track that is one of the better values in Texas golf. The low prices and friendly service, combined with a picturesque and challenging golf course, make this a Hill Country favorite.
Architects Dave Axland and Dan Proctor built a natural-looking course that fits the terrain perfectly. The course is nestled into the rolling hills and oak trees along the Highland Lakes, playing 6,891 yards from the tips. During your round you’ll encounter lush fairways frequently loaded with bunkers, large greens that slope severely, and numerous bump and run shots. The designers added a few original touches, such as the descriptive Scottish names for each hole (the 18th is called "Hame" for the home hole).
Another interesting design twist involved placing the signature hole as the opener. Playing 504 yards to a par 5, no. 1 is best attacked with an iron into the left side of a sloping, tree-lined fairway. The creek cuts into the landing area, making it a testy tee shot. The second shot must bend around the dogleg to the left and over the creek, and the approach is into the green shaded by large trees on the right.

Golfer Reviews
Beautiful course
Course was in great shape. The staff is very friendly. Pace of play was extremely slow. There was 3 different groups lined up waiting on the tee box.
Lots of deer and nature
Some nice scenery. Lots of deer and cactus. Course was challenging and pretty well maintained. The driving range was too close to the parking lot for an errant shot. Made me a little nervous parking my vehicle there. The greens and fairways were pretty hard. Would have liked to have seen softer greens. Staff seemed stressed due to the number of golfers playing. Pace of play was SLOW. We need off at 3 and did not finish until 8 pm. Staff came out and would not let us finish 18 because they said all carts must be in by 7:30 pm. There were several golfers lined up behind us who also didn't get to finish. Enjoyed the round but will try to play next time mid-week.
Thank you for sharing your experience and observations. We apologize for the parking situation and the pace of play; we're working on improving both aspects and hope your next visit mid-week offers a better experience.
Really nice Course
Delaware Springs is always an enjoyable place for a round of golf. The course is not to hard or to easy. The staff an amenities at the course are very good. Good food and drink.
great course. great greens.
Practice area is very mediocre. Could improve this area. The greens were fast and true and hold a good shot. Green complexes were not overly elevated like is to me a common mistake in course design. A couple of steeply elevated greens ok but no more and put some grass there so it doesn't run all the way into the woods. Pet peave rant over. Holes turn right and left with pretty generous landing areas off the tee. All clubs need to be ready for use as Holes very a lot in length. Nice amount of green grass when other courses are brown, hard ground unpleasant track. Rarely see cart person while playing here. Also while very flat green to tee journey is quite long on about 4 to 5 Holes making a cart pretty much necessary. Love this course.
Greens punched and sanded...
It would've been nice to know the greens were all punched and full of sand...other than that, it's beautiful Delaware Springs - a great golf course.
Better Public in Area
Nice tee to green. Everything seem to be fine on course maintenance. The only draw back was pace of play it was a snail pace 10 to 15 minutes on tee box every hole. Saw a marshal at tee box and on course, the one on course seemed more interested in finding golf balls than pace of play. I usually do not comment on pace of play but this was slow.
Everything about this course was perfect except the pace of play. For whatever reason, it was very slow.
Challenging but fun
Overall a great bang for your buck. Fairways and tee boxes are in good condition. The greens are in excellent condition, but tough as they come. Fast and significantly undulated. Pace of play is slow. Our round was 5hr 30min.
In Great Shape
Greens fast, but a little hard and didn’t hold and shots. But the course was in great shape. Marshall’s around on both sides. Staff was very friendly. Quick round.
Just Average
Nothing tricky or special about the course design/holes. Tee boxes were in great shape but the fairways were already hard (and it’s only February). Staff (pro shop) lacked a friendly demeanor. And pace of play was horrific. They had too many people bunched together and should spread out the tee times by another couple of minutes.
We apologize for not meeting your expectations during your visit and appreciate your feedback. We will address the issues you mentioned and work to improve the course experience. Thank you for taking the time to leave a review.
Excellent course
One of the best courses I played in central Texas! Very good technical course
Thank you for your kind words on our course condition and staff. We apologize for the slow pace.
