awesome day to play

The day was 70 degrees and beautiful, unfortunately, that meant a lot of people also wanted to play. There was a hard freeze in the last two weeks, so the grasses were severely affected. Greens were fast! I enjoy the day, but the course was in much better shape just two weeks prior when I played it.

Slow Play

Only complaint is never seeing a marshall. The slow 2some in front of us on the front nine turned into a slow 3some on the back. Ruined what would have been a great day of golf.

Great place

Great golf course. Nice scenery and an excellent staff. Located in Texas Hill Country adds challenging elevated areas, rivers and ponds run through out some fairways making for an extra challenging course. I recomend this to anybody at any level.

Fairways were hard packed

The greens were in good condition and were fast. The fairways were typical of West Texas, hard packed with tight lies. You can get held up behind slow players. Overall it was a nice course for the area.

Fall conditions, excellent clubhouse, reachable par 4's

A November play day for me. The weather...72 degress, wind 5 to 7 mph, partly sunny; bottomline it was great. I played the Lakes/Valley course. The greens were fast and true, the course was well maintained. The facilities were top-notch! I like the course and I suggest playing it if you are ever in the San Antonio area.

good use of water. Greens in good shape.

The club house was neat and modern. SUNDAY the staff brought out a clean cart to the car.
The time time was right on and the pace of play was average.
Could of used a ranger to help holders who never played the coures.
The tee boxes where not clearly marked. The blue and gold where together.
Also carts were not allowed on any of the fairway's. Made for a long day.

Great Course and Staff

Really great experience. A steal for $18; well-maintained, good pace of play, staff was super. Fast, true greens which will punish you if you get on the wrong side of the hole. Not a long course, but you must hit to spots to score. Unsure if this course is really worth the apparently normal $70 green fee, but it's not far off. My only issue was the long drive to get there. Nice carts, practice balls free. Less than 4 hours to play on a Saturday around 1 PM. Highly recommended.

Not too long, not too difficult, not too easy.

The golf staff was friendly and eager to please. Made us feel welcome. The starter offered to let us, a twosome, Tee off ahead of a slower foursome. The pace of play was normal.
The course was relatively short with small greens. The greens were lightning fast. Although the course was short there was plenty of trouble to get into if you didn't pay attention.
A good day of golf, not too easy and not too hard. A very pleasant golfing experience.

The course is interesting and beautiful!

Tapatio Springs is getting back to the way it was and perhaps even better! Lots of work going on everywhere, which is good to see. All staff were very friendly, and that is nice! There was a time when the staff members were rather rude and abrupt. Not this time! We will be back!

Dry

The course is fairly short and is on the easy side of moderate overall with some tough holes. It was very dry and not in the best of shape when I played. The greens were dry, but not dead. It was also CP only when I played, I guess because it was so dry. The locker room was top notch and on par with a high-end country club. I think this place has potential, but the condition wasn't there when I played and not inline with other courses that have the same drought conditions.

Great Layout for Small Course

The greens could have been a little more plush but all and all they rolled great. The course was in great condition. It is fairly easy but it is a resort style course.

Very Nice

Very nice place to golf. I think because of the drought, the "Lakes" were pretty much drained and the water that was there looked a bit murky.... overall was nice course and did not feel rushed on a beautiful Tuesday afternoon.

Fun course

The course is beautiful and is in good shape. The greens are well manicured and are challenging but fair. Tapitio is a great place to play right in the heart of the Texas hill country.
