Loved this course. Friendly staff. Quality environment.

I am a girl not a guy, but GolfNow does not have an option for clicking "good time girl" as a golfer. As for the course, very nice now that it has new owners. Having an ice chest on the cart with ice and 2 water bottles in it was a very nice touch.

Good time..

Played Ridges 9 and Lakes 9. While the Ridges fairways need water, it was manageable. The lakes conditions
were as good as any i've played since my arrival to texas. Including la cantera. Every course ive played could use more water...at tapatia stay w/ lakes and valleys if u can.

The course is in great shape & the staff are very helpful.

Best deal for the $$$$. pace of play is better than most. not to dificult. restaurant is great. good driving,chipping & putting facilities. Please try to add the "lone wolf golf course" in lost pines,tx. It is a hyat resort facility, much like the Hill country Hyat in san antonio,tx.

What a Beauty

It has been about ten years since I last visited Tapatio. I had forgotten just how beautiful this place is. The course design is much more traditional that many courses I play these days...I love it!!! You are very quickly impressed the the natural beauty surrounding you. It just whispers comfort. This complex just looks like the golf holes have always been there and not shoe horned into a parcel of land. I have read some reviews talking about poor conditions due to lack of maintenance, but we found it to be in excellent condition. Like all of us, they just need a little more rain to fill up there lakes and ponds. Fairways were lush, greens rolled true, (just needed to mow them to add some speed). All in all, I'll be back for sure!!!!

This course was pretty fun.

Really a short course with a few difficult spots. If you drive the ball 315+ like I do be prepared to hit a few greens in one if playing from the second tees. There was only one problem I had. One was if you don't have a gps rangefinder good luck on the distance guesses. There aren't any makings of distance with the exception of two really short cedar stumps that are painted. I wish the water hazords would've had more water in them, but I understand how south texas is. All in all it was fun and I woukd play there again.

Thoroughly enjoyed the course and the staff. They were excellent

From the moment we arrived, as visiitors from Saskatchewan, we were made to feel welcome and appreciated for coming.
This is one of the nicest courses we have played here in Texas.

A must play with scenic views.

Very enjoyable for the first time playing the course. A must visit if not to play golf, to enjoy the views and scenery. Very spacious and well decorated pro shop, restaurant, outdoor patio, you name it. Every section looked awesome! My son and I were extremely pleased and everything exceeded my expectations. Great price for a great venue.

I hope that George uses a wad of his Pesos to really refurbish these 3 courses because the overall layout of these courses is spectacular.

The overall layout of these courses provide some excellent views and the elevation changes provide a opportunity to test a golfer's shot making ability. Many shots require fairly long carries over some pretty gnarly areas. Fun courses to play but bring a lot of balls if you are a 10+ handicap. I wish that they would have overseeded the fairways for winter/spring play.

Great setting and views

This course has a great and beautiful setting. Everything about my experience was great, with the only negative being that the course could use a little better maintainence--which is to say that everything was in good condition, but it is the only thing keeping this from being a 5-star review. If the course were green and lush, then it would truly be a hidden gem. Regardless, the course is fun, scenic, and a good balance of challenging yet forgiving though most of the holes are on the shorter-than-average side.

Whew what a day!

We really enjoyed playing this course, yet again! We teed off early in the morning, after finishing we had lunch at the fantastic restaurant, then thought heck lets play another 18, guess what they only charged us $16 per person for the replay! 36 holes and great lunch, just needed a massage and it would have been a perfect day!

Short, but pretty. Clubhouse renovation is very nice. The course still needs work.

I have played this course for over 20 years. The clubhouse renovations are great. Now George and his partner need to spend some money on the golf course. Appears that the sand traps were redone. Now aerate and water those fairways.

I was disappointed to see the fairways so dry. We played the Ridge and Lakes.

I would recommend this course when the fairways are in better shape.

Its was a great day of golf.

The greens were in very good shape and the course was very fun to play. I will return. The weather was also a factor in the great day of golf!!!! Must be traditional for Hill country golf....but with over 45 years of playing golf, this was the first time I played with jeans...Nice Touch!!!!
