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.

Wide open fairways, greens in good shape
The course was in good condition for this time of year. Long fairways that let you really go for a far shot. Not crowded & fast paced play. We’ll definitely come again. We didn’t try the snack area.

The course is great. Parking is terrible
For the course to be as popular as it is, the parking is terrible. I have no clue how they would efficiently conduct a tournament

Great Course!
Had a great time playing today, course is in great shape. There was some confusion for my group as they were having people start on hole ten instead of the front 9, which no one told us when we checked in. Also, not sure why you need a receipt or number for The Marshall to check you in on a tee time. No one would drive all the way out to burnet and lie about not paying for their tee time.
With that said, it was a really busy day, and I think staff were just trying to do their best.
Once we started playing it was fantastic. Course is in incredible shape, fairways are mowed low and they are fast, greens are fantastic, and Marshall’s were super helpful on the course as some people left their wedges, dropped equipment - the usual.
Definitely will be back, this is a hill country gem!

Go Play It!!!
If you like the TX hill country, then please play this course. It is a jewel in the hill country
We played 1 and 1/2 holes and it started pouring down rain in the middle of the first hole.
That staff was very friendly about the situation and we hope to try it again soon.
Was going to take pictures but we looked like a drowned rats lol.
Played here before and it’s a nice course.

Gem
What amazing greens! I almost do not want to write this review as others may find this course. This is one of the most fun places in central Texas. Great round with a really fun pairing. Incredibly unique track and the eye deceives you a lot, just fun.
These are the best greens around!

Hello, u314161123145. Thank you for visiting us at Delaware Springs Golf Course. We appreciate your 4-star rating and review. We hope you join us for another round soon.
Great day, and as usual course was outstanding
From the go Blake accommodated my third player. He’s always solid. Course is lighting quick and greens flawless for the time of year. Again, private club staffs around the CTX area should come see how its done.
Look forward to playing again soon.
