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.

Never see one on course Photo submitted by mhughesgolf on 06/13/2015
Course is great
Absolutely one of the best in the Austin area, one draw back. Pace of play is horrendous, expect 5 51/2 hour round. Absolutely no attempt to speed thing up. That’s why I’ve played my last round there
Will be returning
A real good day.
Fairways were firm but smooth so drives rolled a little further 😄. Greens were also very firm, but despite the recent sanding were smooth. A great day on the course.
Superb.
Very pleased with the entire experience. Great course, very well manicured greens and as amiable of a staff that I’ve ever encountered. Definitely recommend to anyone that they visit this course as much as their able.
Very enjoyable course. Really good shape. People that worked there were very friendly. I’ll go back for sure
Great experience
Friendly staff and members, can’t wait to get back.
Delaware Springs
Course is always in Great Condition and the Staff is also awesome
Great coarse for the money, fast greens!
I had a great experience at Delaware Springs Golf Course. The course was in excellent shape, with well-maintained fairways and fast, true-rolling greens that made for an enjoyable challenge. Pace of play was smooth throughout the round, which made the whole day even more enjoyable. One thing to be mindful of is the local wildlife—rattlesnakes are around, so stay alert when looking for errant balls. Overall, it’s a solid course, and I’ll definitely be back to play again.
good course
only real issue was pace of play over 5 hours is too long

Course is always in great shape, but I would have to say that the greens still a bit bumpy from having been punched about 3 weeks to a month ago.
Delaware Springs 2025
Delaware Springs is always a great value the course is always an excellent shape and the staff as well couldn’t be pleased could be more pleased
Great course. Can’t wait to go back.
First time ever playing this course and was pleasantly surprised. Great layout throughout with some hidden challenges snuck in here and there.
The 4 of us got burgers at the clubhouse after our round and were thoroughly impressed.
Staff is very pleasant. Going to book again soon.
Wow
We had a 12:44 tee time. We teed off about 10 minutes later. We had a foursome and a single in front of us. The single was a beginner was hitter the ball all over the course and hit one of the guys that was a foursome in front of him. I was a very slow and long day. I wish we would have know that they had punch the green, they were still fast and bumpy. Tan then on 17 in the fairway we had a group hit into us while we was waiting on the group on the green. No respect never came up to say sorry or my bad. I thought golf was a gentleman sport but now it’s a game of combat and who you can hit into.
Fantastic
A group that of us played this course on a flier headed to San Antonio to play golf. What a Gem this place is. This is a great value course with plenty of challenges. This will now be on our list as a must play when we head this way to play. Well ran, and maintained. Simply a ton of fun to play.
