Olympia Hills Golf Course is very exciting and enhances San Antonio's reputation as a golf destination. A unique combination of natural topography and man-made mounds and bunkers make this a super course. Native South Texas vegetation and golf course grass seed formulations on fairways and greens will provide state-of-the-game playing surfaces. The views are spectacular, with several holes playing to greens well below the tees, while other lead to a significant rise to reach the putting surface. Fairways, which on some holes are tight, are often sloped and guarded by bunkers. The tips will not be played by the faint hearted, but with four sets of tee boxes, the course can be enjoyed by all levels of players.

My First Time Wont Be My Last Time

I had such an amazing experience as a new golfer. The staff in the store was so helpful and gracious. I learned about golf lessons and how to utilize the driving range. A staff member also came out to check up on me and advise me along the course. Olympia Hills is beautiful and the landscape is luxurious to see. Come on out!

Temporary greens and closed holes.

They are rebuilding all greens so every hole has a temporary "green". 3 holes are completely closed because they are re-doing drainage. Nearly all tee boxes were in terrible condition. Wish I had known this before I booked; guess I should have called to find out why the rate was so low. The other problem is that with the low rates there are lots of beginners so the round was pretty slow. I look forward to going back in a few months and trying the new greens.

Temporary greens

They were replacing the greens on most of the holes. I was not aware of it until I spoke with the starter. It would have been common courtesy to let golfers know before they step on the course

Great Layout Poor Maintenance

Nice layout and challenging course. Lack of proper maintenance killed all the greens, now temp greens. Tee boxes are similar. This would be a great course with the proper maintenance.

Rough shape right now

Unfortunately Syed a round when they are rebuilding greens. So all holes have temp greens.

Holes 5 and 8,9 are all completely closed.

Cart shut down on me and was stranded on hole 12 for awhile.

Glad I didn't have to pay full price.

Except for the greens Olympia Hills is a fantastic golf course. When you get your greens squared away you have one of the best places to play golf anywhere.

Fairways and even the rough looks great. Love playing your course.

Great Bang for Your Buck

The course is partially closed and using temporary greens. The staff is friendly though and we still had a good time for the price!

Ed's OHGC Review

Bad - all greens were closed. 15 of 18 holes used temp greens that were tough to putt on.

Good - $25 fee including cart pretty well overcame the green situation. Staff is GREAT! Think course handicap ratings stayed the same due to trade-off of less distance to greens vice added putting difficulty.

Overall - worth the play while green are repaired.

Temporary Greens

Got to the golf course and when checking in, I was told that all of the greens are being re-sod and they had temporary greens on all holes and I believe four of the holes were closed.

Besides that, the course was okay. One good thing was that I was told I could play as many rounds as possible, and I played two rounds, which almost felt like one round at most courses.

Olympia Hills

This course was in the worst condition I have ever seen any course. All 18 greens had severe green damage that looked like chemical damage. Tee boxes did not have this damage. Grrens were mostly cracked dirt with very little grass. there was nothing on course website about this damage and no notice from staff when checking in. Golf Now had no notice on booking site. Extremely disappointing after long drive to course.

Construction and givemes

When you pull into the course, you’re greeted with a nice clubhouse and a beautiful practice green. Once you go to play your round however, the course is under construction and the tee boxes are chewed up. The greens are some of the worst I’ve ever seen. Dried out and mostly cobblestone looking dirt. My buddy and I had to give club length givemes as the greens are unreadable
