Re-emerging as one of the San Antonio area's best

After a couple of ownership changes and a couple rounds of renovations, Tapatio Springs has certainly become a must-play in the San Antonio area and an attractive resort option. Redesigned by architect Tripp Davis, the course has new bunkers, restored greens, a few new greens and conditions that are better than the resort has had in years. When you throw in the Hill Country setting, it translates into a special golf experience.

A must play

This course is tucked in the hills of outter San Antonio (Boerne). I had never heard of the resort but I am glad I finally did. We enjoyed the course and the facilities. The greens rolled true and the fairways were in very good shape. Give it a try, you won't be disappointed.

Tapatio Springs

The golf course is undergoing some repair work so 3 temporary greens were in place. Didn't impact our round as the construction crews were out of the way and no trouble Fairways and greens were in excellent condition. Clubhouse staff very friendly.

Call before booking on line

Despite the renovations that had gone on earlier this year, I expected this course to be in better condition. What my group (3 of us and early morning tee time), did not expect was there to be major renovations of sand bunkers and pitching areas playing up towards green to be under repair for 11 of 18 holes; even some of the tee boxes were. Pro shop gave us a free round of golf card before we teed off to compensate for what were to experience toward our next visit. We truly found out why were given the free next round. When we got on the course to start playing holes for the most part on the front and back, they were like I shared above. I booked this through golf now but when it is finshed in 3-4 months it will be worth the money.

Perfect for my level

Although the course is under renovation most of the greens and fairways are in perfect condition.
I can't wait for another round when the renovation is completed.
Kudos to the guy at the club house who was very friendly and very informative as we check in for our tee time.Thank you and God bless.

One Step Closer to Perfection

The only way I can describe Tapatio is a fine wine, not the $20 bottle, I'm talking the $170 bottle in the glass cabinet. I've played here 4 times over the last 2 years and every single time the course has changed layout in some way. But its better every single time. I'm ecstatic to see the course after this renovation is through in October. We played it Monday and it was in bad shape, Tee boxes were moved, greens were closed, almost all bunkers were under construction. But this is what I will say, the landscaping, and fairways around that construction was out of this world. The quality of the grass they used in the fairways is some of the best I’ve ever seen. The greens that were open were great and extremely challenging. This will be a top 10 place to play in SA if not Texas when they are done. Amazing course everyone, keep it up!!!.

Course under total renovation

It's worth noting that the course is under total renovation. Several hole have makeshift greens and Tees. All the course bunkers are still being redone; it takes a lot of patience and tolerance to play this course. Members may be able to over look the renovations, but I would not play the course again until the overhaul is complete. It is massive.

The Tap comes through, as always.

Always enjoy going out to Tapatio Springs. The course is usually in great shape, even after the droughts of the past few years and the rain during 2015. Tapatio is a great value for what you are asked to pay in green fees. Even though this outing was purchased as a "hot deal" from Golfnow, our group would still pay the regular price and feel like we got more than what we paid for.

Tapatio Springs

The course and water features were in great shape after all the rain it has gotten this past year. It is closing on July 6 for renovations that are scheduled to last 6 weeks. It should be even nicer when they are completed.

Very Nice Place to Play

A little over priced unless you get a tee time on line. This course has vastly improved over the last year. Fairways and green are now in good condition on their way to becoming great. This course is deceiving and tricky. One must place his or her shots in the right location. It is nestled in the Hill Country and surroundings are beautiful. Staff is excellent and friendly and the club house is top notch. They are adding new amenities and are bringing this gem to a true resort quality course. Over all four stars out of 5.

Amazing Views

1st time at Tapitio. My son brought me for a belated Father's Day outing. Plenty of elevation changes, water, and scenery. If you're staying in San Antonio definitely worth the 45 min drive to Boerne .

Keeps Getting Better

I've been playing Tapatio for several years and it gets better with each visit. The staff is constantly making improvements to the course. On my most recent visit there were a few greens where new grass was planted and a couple bunkers that were under repair, but overall the course was in great shape.

If you want to get away from the city, experience the hill country, and play a round of golf for a reasonable price you can't find a better course than Tapatio.
