Delaware Springs Golf Course
Rating Snapshot
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.

Not good
So when you book it on golfnow the personal at the course has a attitude when you tell them that. Then when you get ready to play their is a noon group that Gomes off everyday at that time. There was three groups of foursome and two groups of fivesome. Also it was a five hours round so you can’t focus on playing cause it was so slow. An the marshal doesn’t do anything about it cause he play in there group also. A very unfriendly course. Oh and we had a 1:10 tee time
