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.

Great landscape

Being an average player, I found this course to be pretty difficult but very fun. The lazy river was a great way to cool after my afternoon round.

course is in dry condition

course is in drier condition, compared to previous years. Sand Traps, while are raked, need to be replenished with new sand and raked better to remove debris.

Overall great value on hot deals .

3 - 9 holes courses that offer varying difficulties. I was allowed to play but told not to wear blue jeans when I had played 3 other times wearing jeans and no one said anything. Overall great experiences . They allowed ample time for warm-up on the range .

Good price for a fair course.

Played course February 21. Course was in decent shape, greens were fair - some had some bare spots. Fun course to play though with mix of solid golf holes, strategic par 4's, wide fairways. Pace of play was good. Beverage cart service but no restaurant open for an after round beer/drink which seemed very odd for a Hyatt Hotel of all places.

Resort is under construction

The Hyatt Resort is under construction. This affects some of the holes on the golf course, for example, the 1st hole on the Oaks is narrowed by a construction fence on the left side. Some of the fairway lies were so tight it was like hitting off a cart path. Some fairways slope into hazards. Some greens are undulating to extremes...on the wrong level and a 2-putt is almost impossible.

Excellent experience!

Excellent course with a great staff! I have played this course a number of times and have to say that every time I go back, it gets better. The course is in great condition and provides a great golfing experience. Because the course is located at a resort, you need to be aware that the pace-of-play might be a little slow at times. However, the marshal is always trying to things moving. Again, excellent experience!

An interesting course with potential for a good round.

The staff at this course were very friendly and accommodating. I played this course at the beginning of February and the condition of the course was mediocre. The greens were thin and sparse, making them difficult to putt. The sand traps were well-maintained and the fairways were easy to play on. The condition of the course may be due to seasonal factors, but there are some signs that it is time to put step it up and put in some extra effort and investment in the course. I did find a number of the holes interesting and the design added to the overall quality of play.

Really good value for this time of year!

Overall I would rate this course an 8/10. We were very lucky to have really good weather for this time of year. We played the Oaks to Creek and the course has a little bit of everything. Very challenging with some elevation changes and pretty views. The greens are in very nice shape, but hard to putt if you have never played em before. Kudos to the staff for keeping this course in nice shape. If you have never played here before I would highly recomend.....we had a great time.

Slooooowww

Seems like it could have been fun if they didn't let groups of 5 go out and groups with tiny children that run around while their parents are shooting. Terrible pace if play not fun at all, and for someone who likes to drive the ball long this place isn't for you, lots of irons off the tee.

Great Layout and Value for December in South Texas. Windy conditions made it extremely challenging and the Greens were extremely challenging.

Overall was a good to great course to play. Played the Links to Lakes route. Course was in good condition for late December but you can tell the lack of water over the last couple on months is taking it's toll. The greens were dry and extremely fast and TBO the pin placements were not fair on some holes with them being placed up to 7 yds from the front with some pretty questionable slopes. Might work for a tournament setup but for the average winter vacation player at a resort course I think the pins should be placed in more accessable locations. The greens looked like they need a little more care and water to grow up and soften up. Overall I love the layout of the Hyatt and have played it when the course was in Outstanding shape. One other note is that they no longer have the water cooler on the practice range. They use to also provide tees on the range. No more I guess??

Staff was very friendly

Greens were true and challanging. The fairways were in great condition. Pace of play was just over four hours with only minor wait times on the tee box. Parking was the only issue. We had a 12:50 tee time and had to park near construction, the furthest from the clubhouse.

Brutally hard. Six signature holes.

Fantastic. Just keep it in the fairway. Leave the driver at home. Try not to 4 putt like me. I'm a 10 handicap, played well from the tips, shot a 99. Six signature holes on the Oaks to Lakes. Very inspiring and serene. Helped balance my bad score. Highly recommend.
