Vaaler Creek Golf Club

Course is in excellent shape. Fun layout and friendly staff. Only drawback was pace of play due to a slow foursome and no marshaling.

Booked on special on GolfNow. Course was in great shape. There are definitely a few holes where you have to pay attention to subtleties of the layout, others where you can cut loose. My son and I signed up, and was paired with a couple of nice guys for an enjoyable round. Course was generally clear, had to let a few singles play through and did catch a slow foursome on the last few holes, but not too bad overall.

Course is in great shape and you can barely tell we are in a drought, greens were very nice, fairways were great. Hill Country Golf at its best.

As always, the course was in excellent condition. Nice plush fairways and the greens, even though had fertilized green paint on them, were soft and fast. Not a lot of people playing on a Friday at 11, and the temperature was bearable because of the breeze. Love to play this course, good thing is too far for most San Antonio golfers so locals can enjoy a first rate course for a great price and in excellent conditions. The snack bar could offer better food but the golf makes up for it.

The course was in great condition with the greens running very fast. As always, the staff was great.

This course is challenging and in good shape right now. The tee boxes on some of the par 3’s are pretty tore up but other than that it’s a great place to play.

What a beautiful course tucked away in the hill country. Everything was perfect from the greens to fairways over condition was unbelievable. Spend the time to drive and play this wonderful courses.

Greens are very challenging but fun once you get a feel for them. Over all had a great time and would def play again.

Course in good shape. Pace of play was headed for five hours and no marshal so I left after nine.

Vaaler Creek never disappoints. Played on a Saturday afternoon as a single. Beautifully conditioned course is becoming the norm at Vaaler Creek. Once the upgrades and a few bunkers are finished, there’s nothing holding this course back from the potential 5 Stars across the board. The greens were excellent, rolling very true. The course layout provides variety throughout the round. Great course, great value. Continues to be a favorite and a hill country gem as it’s yet to disappoint. Recommend to anyone from Austin or San Antonio to get to this course and check it out. Worth the drive.

I always enjoy playing this course an it is in good shape.

Small clubhouse, and bare minimum amenities... BUT all the money saved on those thing was/is put into the golf course. And boy does it show! Great layout that offers a variety of holes, and shots. Forgiving fairways for higher handicaps. (Only negative, the bunkers were in poor condition, but in fairness there was a 2 day rain a couple nights before). Course conditions are amazing, perfectly manacured fairways and greens, which roll true and can hold, and catch spin for more advanced players. (Only negative, uneven tee boxes, which are in nice condition other than the unevenness... just a pet peev). The staff is super friendly and accommodating, i had a 7am as a single, and the paired me up (which is fair), but the pro in the shop let me go off first. Finished 18 in 2 hours, and asked to replay, and they were packed, but they worked me in, which is greatly appreciated because playing this course for the replay price is nothing short of stealing. Pace of play was a bit rough, but not surprising, they deserve to be busy. Very fair food and beverage prices.

This is hands down the best course I have ever played that I booked on golfnow. Excellent value for the price.

Beautiful course

New carts

Fairways and greens were fantastic

Spectacular set up and views

Will definitely play there again

The fairways and greens were in excellent condition. The front nine greens are very challenging. Simply a great place to play.

Vaaler Creek is one of the hill country’s best courses. A 35 mile drive up 281 from the 1604 Loop, this place is worth the drive. The course doesn’t play long, less than driver can be hit often. The variety of holes is outstanding. Course difficulty comes in 2nd shots into the greens and the greens themselves. The greens are very undulated, as much as any course around, but are in great condition. Very grainy, as uphill puts were slow, while downhill puts are extremely quick. Tee to green looked fantastic. The bunker on 10 is finally finished, but unfortunately it seems as if 2-3 other bunkers have been slightly neglected now and need resanded. None hurt play, but those are the only thing keeping this course from being 5 stars at this point. The only holes affected are the new pond/ bunker addition on 7 and the bunkers guarding the 13th and 15th greens. None affect play in the least bit as you just attempt to avoid them on shots into the greens anyway. These were the only thing keeping the conditions and course from being all 5 stars for me. Enjoy the 18th holes 2nd shot. It’s one of the best of any course around. A definite worth the drive course, among the best the hill country has to offer.
