South Padre Island Golf Club - 9 Holes Course

this course is one of the better courses i have played in the brownsville - south padre island area and will most likely play it a few more times

I played this golf course on vacation. I played it several times many years ago in the early 2000's...the resort has really built up since the last time I played. The conditions were fair to good depending on the hole. With all the additional developements, the course doesn't seem to have benefitted as much I as would have imagined.

Its a fun course, kinda of a Kiawah Island type setup. The front nine plays along the Laguna Madre for several holes with a nice view of SPI. I recomend this course...its the best in the area near SPI.

would never pay reg price and wish they would add sand

Though there's plenty of trouble to be found, the layout is ho-hum and the upkeep is average at best. The course was horribly over-watered. Bunkers were either soaked or hard as a rock. We played @ $38 and it wasn't really worth it. If this was a Midwestern course, it'd go bankrupt @ $38 per head. I'd compare it to the average municipal course but in poorer condition. If you're a good player, look elsewhere, but if you shoot above 90 you'll probably enjoy the track. I'm dumbfounded this course has been routinely ranked 4+ stars... perhaps that's due to a lack of options!?

Played course two couples had a great time. Very windy one day so, not as much fun. We let a few twosomes thru otherwise it was easy-breezy. Lost a few balls and putting for me was difficult to feel as I don't play a lot of bermuda greens.
Golf Now got us GREAT rates!!
The girls looked at rental housing for future trips.

Greens were ok. The rest of the property is awefull. Golf courses are supposed to have grass not dirt. You have to play winter rules here. Some bunkers had good sand but most were mud. Lots of drainage problems. Upkeep of property is very poor. The setting for this golf course is great. Time for a complete rebuild.
