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.

Non-qualifying, ongoing redesign and overall very poor atate

They are redesigning a number of holes and the first nine are all temporary holes. Overall state of the course is very poor. I would bot recommend this course.

Decent Course

It's okay for a public course. I played on Easter weekend so the pace of play was rather slow. Had people hitting on us while on the fairway. The course is currently under construction and wasn't worth paying a full $55. The back 9 was in a much better condition than the front 9. Be prepared to bring your A game on the greens as they are hard as a rock. Would definitely play again.

Bad greens and course under construction

Played here for years, and can’t remember the last time the greens were in this bed of shape. Also, because of some drainage construction, multiple holes are not in their usual play condition. Not the end of the world, but should be noted when people are reserving.

Holes Under Construction.

First few holes were under construction which was a blemish on the course. The roughs were not always in good shape, most of the greens were in good shape. Not bad for this time of the year.

The course layout was great. Many holes had nicely elevated tee boxes and nice fairways winding through the valleys.

We were caught behind a High School Ladies tournament, which slowed down play tremendously for the first 5 holes.

Slow pace of play due to girls golf tournament

The course was in good shape, however the management at the course scheduled / stacked so many people to t-off during a girls golf tournament, which made for tremendously slow pace of play while the girls were still playing. If you book this course, just make sure there are no golf tournaments scheduled for the day you’re playing.

Too much construction

The course has potential but too many Par 3s now due to construction. Several temporary holes. Greens in poor shape too.

Olympia Hills in Good Shape

It may be early in the year and much needed drainage work being done but Olympia Hills is in good shape. Fairways and greens growing in nicely.

Always friendly staff and great value.

My home course

We absolutely love Olympia Hills. The staff is always very friendly, drink selection at the bar is great, course layout is fun and the condition of the fairways and greens have improved quite a bit. There is currently work being done on the course but it doesn't take away from the experience. The team has worked really hard to improve conditions and it shows.

Under construction

The course is under construction and a few holes are temporary or closed. I played it when it wasn't under construction and was a good experience. The staff was super friendly and accommodating. I think they could offer a discount off the $55.00 rate during the week to help. I would recommend only because it's conveniently located for me.

construction

good tight course, but had a lot of construction going on so several holes were shortened and one closed, I felt that the price paid was too high, and should be cheaper until the construction is finished. had I known this before hand I would have played somewhere else.

Construction Zone

Overall the course was fine. There were a lot of temporary holes. I will let it go at that! When we got to the eighteenth hole…it didn’t exist! I had a good time in spite of the confusing rerouting, etc.
