Hill Country Golf Club offers three nines, all of which sprawl across 200 scenic acres of Texas Hill Country. The terrain is provided with rolling meadows and steep hillsides dotted with tranquil lakes and ponds that come into play throughout the 27 holes. The Lakes Nine is obviously characterized by the clear blue lakes that come into play throughout the course. There are also wooded ravines and strategically placed bunkers throughout the course for even more challenges. The Oaks Nine is named for the towering oaks that blanket the course. From wooded ravines to tree-lined fairways, this nine is a demanding test of accuracy. There are strategically placed bunkers and water comes into play on a few holes. The courses, which were designed by well-known architectural firm Arthur Hill & Associates, have received praise from both Golf Digest and Golf Magazine.

This is a resort???

I cannot imagine being a paying guest at this "resort" course. The condition of the course is on par with any mid-range daily fee facility.

This starter is notorious - easily the worst, most ineffective and rude starter at any resort in Central TX. Clueless and obnoxious is a bad combo. By the way - my name is right on your sheet. No need to refer to me as "you."

I played Lakes to Creeks. Lakes is far superior to the scruffy Creeks. Lakes is a better layout as well.

The practice facility is quite good - kudos there.

Nice pro shop with friendly, engaging personnel - how this starter fits in with this otherwise outstanding group is a mystery.

Pros: Excellent pace of play. Great practice area. Fine pro shop.

Cons: Average layout. Mediocre conditions. Shabby greens

Great Father's day

Reserve tee time for my brothers and my dad for Father's day weekend. we had one of the best times we've ever had playing golf. The home course layout is beautiful. The course is extremely challenging and well-maintained. I did not stay at the Hyatt hotel but if you have a chance to stay and laying off you will be doing yourself a great honor.

Very beautiful golf course!

This golf course is beautiful and challenging. If you can’t hit straight, bring lots of balls. The greens we’re a bit slow, but very tricky. I thoroughly enjoyed playing the course, overall it is meticulously maintained and a beautiful place to spend the day.

Special Course

Found a gem of a golf track in central Texas. 27 great holes. Greens were fast but nearly perfect. Fairways were like a carpet. Very forgiving if you don’t quite hit your shots straight. Will be playing it again.

Tough but fun

Overall, the course is very well maintained except for a few dead spots on one or two greens that I noticed. It also would be nice if the native rough would be trimmed back more so that it would be easier to find a lost ball haha. Water coolers are pretty much at every other hole which is a big plus when the Texas heat kicks in. Fairways are tight so aim is key.

Course design was great. The 27 hole course was fun to play. It was tight in many areas and makes you play smart and not just hit your driver on every hole. Fairways were in good shape not great. The greens were slow the first day I played and seemed better the second day. They may have just sanded them. The value I marked down because I whould have been disappointed to pay full price for the shape of the fairways and greens were in, however I played Golf Now hot deal which made it a great deal.

The staff was great, friendly, and helpful. The free practice ball's at the diving range was great as well. Be careful on creeks #1 hole as the driving range does come into play on the right side of fairway.

This is some country in the city as wild life is all around you. Deer every where, they were on the fairways as I drove up on several holes. Be careful going around corners with cart as there were two deer on the cart path.
