Beautiful landscape

You couldn't ask for a better place to put a golf course every where you look it's beautiful ponds hills and cliffs I have played almost every course in San Antonio and I would put this one at around top 20 and if the greens were in a little better shape it would be top 10 I will return and play this course again in the winter and compare conditions then

The texture of the grass on the greens was course.
Possibly with more growth they will be as good a Willow Springs.

Excellent golf experience

This is a must play course. Not overly challenging but has some risk/reward holes. Some greens could use work but the overall condition and beauty of the course is amazing. A good chance to test all over your game

This course has a good potential...!!

I think with a little more care and maintenance, this course could be much, much, better potential, and the Green Fee cost for the place is not worth it, due to the distance you have to drive (From San Antonio) and the amount of options out there.
It is a very nice place and could be much better...!!

Tapatio Springs

What a great place to relax and play golf. The staff was amazing. Hospitality started in the parking lot with Taylor and extended throughout the course and the day, even the grounds crew was willing to stop and talk. Jonathan and Stewart (the assistant pros) are awesome guys and willing to help. Even the locals were a joy to talk to and play golf with. The grounds crew has done an amazing job with the course with little water. We will definitely return to Tapatio, hopefully soon.

Friendly staff

The facility and staff were very good to excellent. The course was fair to good, the fairways were good but the experience was made fair as a result of the poor condition of the greens. I've played this course several times and while they are trying to make improvements there is always something that affects my overall rating of between fair and good.

On the Way to Greatness

This course is on the way back to being as good or better than it ever was! The greens just need a little more TLC and a break with the weather. The layout is very challenging with several risk/reward shots. Not many courses can boast the beauty of the surrounding hills and backdrops. You will not be disappointed with the improvements, particularly with the dining and clubhouse.

horrible greens

the golf shop staff was surly at best. we were a 2-some with 12 handicaps. we were HIT into twice within 3 holes. no one bothered to care or apologize. being HIT by a moving golf ball is very dangerous---someone needs to let the cat out of the bag! the layout of the course is so haphazard with very little information regarding course layout. we had a gps but it went haywire after the 3rd hole--again the golf shop could have cared less. no need to replay this course that i have heard raves of for a dozen years!!!

First Timer

The course has an unusual layout, but the change was welcome. The club house was immaculate and the staff as friendly as they come. Our only issues were with the greens. They were aerated, and we could have lived with that, but they seem to be suffering from some kind of disease, and or extremely under watering, and they had a lot of extremely ruff spots as well. Some times more damaged terrain than playable green. They were in real bad shape.

Great Layout

The course was in great shape due to the rains, but the greens need a little work. Other than that it was great. Went to the bar after my round and the prices were too high on the draft beer. The staff was really friendly.

I thought the course had some great hole layout and it is apparent that they are working to improve the condition of the course, but it still needs a lot of TLC.

Beautiful views from every hole.

As newcomers to the area and to the course, we found an outstanding facility at which to play. And enjoyed the course thoroughly. It only lacked in directional signing that would have helped navigate the course easier, and the cart mounted GPS wasn't working. If you put it out there it should work. Nonetheless, Hubby will be back tomorrow to best it again.
