Rating Snapshot
About
Conveniently located near downtown San Antonio not too far from Austin, Vaaler Creek Golf Club has a memorable layout of gently rolling hills dotted with creeks, ponds and lakes. The course begins with a challenging front nine and then eases up a bit on the back nine, but overall it is a formidable test. The greens are tricky and demanding, especially on the front nine where there are some severe slopes and undulations. The back nine greens are a bit flatter but they still require careful attention. The rolling, contoured fairways are lined with trees and there are deep bunkers strategically guarding the greens, but luckily there are only seventeen of them. Water hazards come into play throughout and there are also several doglegs and blind shots if there wasn’t enough to keep you on your toes.

Immaculate Condition
The work that the staff and greens keeper is really showing. The greens are perfect and true. Fairways are in tip top shape as well. The course is in such great condition for anytime of the year but to be this pristine in January shows all the hard work from everyone out there.
Fun day
All good except for the over seeding making the greens exceedingly slow.
Vaaler Creek
The course layout is interesting with some tight tree lined holes and interesting doglegs. However, it is bordered by a a lot of houses and seems to be over burdening the golfers with a lot of private property, no trespassing, and golfer liability signs. This appears as if the homeowners are showing contempt for golfers. They purchased houses on a golf course! The greens are mostly good and interesting but some have brutal ground under repair. Not much rain lately and course was pretty good considering.
Hill Country golf
One of the best Hillcountry golf tracks in the area great facility food staff and Golf Course challenging from all the trees. Well try only a couple greens. Had some issues and most greens were great.
