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.

Beautiful course

I played this course a couple of week ago in a tournament for the San Antonio Pipeliners Association. The weather was absolutely amazing and the course conditions were awesome as well. This course ranks up there with the top tier courses in San Antone such as the JW, the Quarry, and La Cantera. There were a few blind shots so look out for that, and the greens were a little tough to predict. I would definitely play this again.

Sunny BIrthday Round

The course is an excellent value and challenge, even for a double digit handicap 68-year old playing from the white tees. Course is in great shape, greens were very slippery and fast, but well-groomed. I have played the course five or six times now on a Golf Now deal and I've not heard a peep from them about it. They know me now...especially after we held a recent benefit golf tournament here.

Great course

I was only in town for a couple of days and had some time to play a round of golf. I came across this course in the GolfNow app for a great price. Once I arrived to the course, I was greeted with excellent customer service from the gentleman in the pro shop. I had about 30 mins to go before my tee time, and had a chance to get a bite to eat before tee off. Let me say that the lunch was great and the customer service was also great. As for the course, I was impressed with the conditions. The fairways, bunkers and greens was in great shape. It's noticeable that they take care of the course. The course was well laid out and had some challenging holes. Overall I had a great time. I highly recommend this course. You will enjoy it!

Great Conditions But...

This course is always in great shape. From tee boxes to greens, it is difficult to find a better manicured course in the area. However, it does have a few flaws. The biggest is the layout of the course. While there are 27 pristine holes, quite honestly, it feels like there was only enough acreage for mabye 20. Most of the holes play very short so you cannot hit driver on several par 4s and even some par 5s. Because of the lack of acreage, they've had to gimmick up the course. There are trees that block greens and even fairways, a very short par-5 that is in the shape of a horse-shoe (as well as a very short U-shaped par 4), etc. You can easily get around this course hitting irons off the tees, which is a real shame because as I said, the conditions are great. The practice facilities are excellent but they charge $20 if you want to use any part of it. That's right, $20 just to putt. The clubhouse staff is helpful but I wouldn't exactly say friendly. The guys who run the carts and the girls who drive the drink carts are always friendly. Based on all of that, then lastly, I think they're over-priced. You can find a course with similar conditions and a better layout for a much better price (see Canyon Springs and others). Hope this helps!

Don't miss the opportunity to play here

The course staff was very courteous and attentive to customer service and every person from the front counter, starter, and cart maintenance were accommodating and professional, my compliments to management. The course has three 9 hole tracks and all have their own challenges and some holes with risk reward shots that could make you or break you. I give the course and staff 5 star rating and hope my review doesn't over populate this beautiful gem in my backyard.

Hyatt Joke

After all the rain and poor weather the last few weeks the course was in good shape. Course played as Cartpath Only, made for very slow play. However, course officials allowed groups of 5 to 6 golfers at a time, because of these large groups we bypassed 3 holes on the Oaks course just to speed up play. 5 1/2 hours to play 18 holes is not exceptable. Course Marshal didn't seem to care about the pace of play and said that is just how it is on the weekends. Wouldn't waste your time or money if you are planning on playing on the weekend.
