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.

Never see one on course Photo submitted by mhughesgolf on 06/13/2015
This course is the best course in the area for the value
My wife and I have made this course our go to recently. The value, pace of play and the outstanding greens are all a part of why we love this course. It is always in really great shape! This is one of the best municipal courses around. It is a must play if you never have made the drive.
Great course
From the burgers to the bunkers great place to relax and play golf
Great condition, great value
1 drive from Austin was well worth it. Course in great condition and well worth the money. Only knock is that I wish it were closer to me so that I could play it more often.
Delaware springs
Course was great, two things stand out.
1. The sand traps were pristine.
2. Pace of play was a bit backed up, I liked how later back they are but the starter should be a bit more organized.
Home sweet home
I have been playing this course for the last 5 yrs. I use to drive from lakeway at least once a week. Now I live closer. This course is really a gem. Like the idea of not seeing other fairways as you play. Greens are always in great shape, new proper sand in the bunkers, and the aprons are trimmed. Now for the people behind the desk, they are great folks all of them. Treat you as a neighbor. As for the food, the ladies that work there are pleasant and make sandwiches and such that tastes homemade. One last thing, the addition of the pavilion, and they just finished laying down asphalt in the cart area and that really completes the package for this wonderful course. I wish them good fortune going forward. Thanks to Doug, Jay and Bear.

Sunny day , cloudy day, good round, not so good round,
Deleware Springs is the best!!!!
Best burger in town.
Outstanding
One of the best courses in this part of the state. It's a muny course but it's in better shape than most country club courses. I would encourage anyone who hasn't played it to give it a try. You won't be disappointed.
Excellent Course
I really enjoyed playing here and even though it was my first time, I found the course to be very manageable and fun to play. Great for beginners and medium level players. My Uncle is a scratch golfer and it was easy for him (we played from Blues) but overall was a great experience and we will definitely play again.
Enjoyable round of golf
Always a great course to play. Bunker renovation detracted slightly, but always a great time.
Great Layout
This is a really nice golf course for the money. On this occasion, however, the greens were exceedingly fast. Of course, a golfer should be able to adjust to the speed. It’s a great out of of the city course and I highly recommend it it. Play it!!
STILL GOOD
this is one course that I try to play at least once a year. never been disappointed here after 20 years.
CDZ DElaware Review
Really like the course. The greens are smooth and fast and a real pleasure to putt. Staff at course are super.
Worth the trip
Great course, great hamburger, greens were really good. Doug and staff are top notch.
Delaware Springs Golf Course
A very well maintained golf course. Very good layout for amateurs. So much better than many semi-private courses that I have played. I enjoy the tranquility of the area. It is very relaxing and enjoyable to be there on a slow day. The staff is awesome, so helpful and friendly. The grounds crew was so conscious of staying away from golfers while still doing their job. Good job to everyone at Delaware Springs Golf Course in Burnet, Texas.
Doesn't Disappoint
I can always depend on having a good time at Delaware. It's a little bit of a drive from N. Austin, but the value is wirth it.
