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.

Good design, needs better upkeep

This is a good course and challenging. The greens many were in poor shape with bald patches and uneven with invasive grass dpecies. With good maintenance this could be 4.5 stars.

Enjoyable round of golf

Great layout with nines that offer different features. Greens need a little work, not otherwise course was in very good shape.

A little bit pricey, but not so much to keep you away.

Terrible greens

The fairways in decent shape. The greens are bad… very bad! The pace was terrible, took almost 5 hours to play 18. I have more stars due to the 2 course Marshall’s. Both very nice gentlemen.

Olympia

It is one of the courses we play the most. We have never had a bad round here. Staff is friendly and nice. The bar is quick to get you on your way when you stop in to refill the beer cooler.

Since we have had some good storms this year it’s very green and not dried out.

Missing key ingredient

The course and staff overall, besides the greens, were excellent. HOWEVER, there was more mud on the greens than actual grass. The greens were so bad that the old saying "...better than being at work" did not apply. I feel like it was a total waste of time and money and I'm quite disappointed to be honest. I know this course well and I fully expect them to recover, but they really shouldn't even be open at this point.

Greens are horrible!

Worst greens in the San Antonio metro area. Might as well have been putting on dirt while trying to play plinko. With all of the rain we have had in May and early June, no excuse for the poor conditions.

Horrible Greens!

Visited from out of state. Been playing about 15 years, and top 3 worst greens I’ve ever seen. Rest of the course is good. However the greens just ruin it. Management needs to provide some TLC to the greens to make this course worth even playing. Would not recommend. Wouldn’t even pay $15 to play again.

Lost the greens

Course has lost the greens, mostly putting on dirt. Very few greens have grass to putt on. Most pin locations were in areas of green that had no turf

About

Greens were in horrible shape, worse I might have ever played on. Definitely not for what they charge for a round. Layout for course was challenging, but all of that was negated when you arrive onto the greens...Also rented clubs (Left Hand) set was over 13 years old and one wedge (PW) in whole bag. Make things worse putter grip had no rubber left what so ever on the grip. Course pictures online are definitely deceiving.

Tee Boxes and Greens Not Good!

The greens were in horrible shape and tee boxes were not in good shape either. Fairways were nice, but work was also being performed on some sand traps as well. Based on the overall condition, its too expensive to play again.

Good course…terrible greens right now

Pro shop staff was great. Beverage cart girl was very social and always smiling.

Parts of course were a little soggy and muddy due to recent rains. The worst part was about half, if not more then half of the greens were not even worth putting. Greens had dead patches that were dirt all over, never knew which way your ball would bounce. Overall a good course, will go back again.

Challenging course

Olympia Hills is a challenging but fun course to play. Unfortunately the greens are difficult to putt on due to disrepair.
