Rating 73.4

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 course - but wont return until greens are fixed

Agree with the previous review. Was shocked they took my money and didn't mention the greens or bunkers. The greens had entire hills or lumps that were just dirt patches. Lots of courses in Texas have managed the heat and have solid greens. These were a C- at their absolute best. Fix the greens, lower the price or offer half price follow up rounds or something. Not a great experience to play well and trust ZERO percent of your putts on the green.

Greens are horrible

I can’t believe they took my full green fee with a straight face knowing the shape of their greens. This round should have come with a half priced replay when they get their greens back from the dead. To boot the round was an hour slow with no Marshall pushing groups in front of us. And every par 3 is dam near 220+. Don’t think I will be back.

Incorrect information on course length

The length on the red tee box is very different from the length printed on the scorecard.

It was very confusing.

When I contacted Marshall, he told me that the card was printed a long time ago and that the length of the current women's red tee box has been modified.

Greens were ate up!

Awesome course great layout very challenging would not recommend for beginners. Only issues were with the greens and the cart girl was nowhere to be seen. Finally saw her on our way to the 18th hole. I’d maybe attribute the state of greens to the lack of rain here in SA this summer? Staff was friendly. Field Marshall was telling us to pick up our pace of play but there was literally no one behind us waiting on the tee box at any hole so not sure what his deal was. By the time we got to the next hole 4some in front of us was leaving the green. So a little confused with that he was talking about. Wasn’t rude just had us confused. Will continue to play here

Great Potential

First time I played this course I was amazed. The fairways were pristine and even checkered, and the greens were fantastic. That was a couple years ago now, and that has changed. To be fair, we’ve been in a drought, and the conditions weren’t as bad in my opinion as some of the reviews would suggest. However, the bunkers are a disaster. Just dirt and rocks, and the greens had some pretty bad patches. Fairways were in good condition overall, though.

The main problem at Olympia is the pace. Always a 5+ hour round.

The course has so much potential. It’s a fun layout and can be as challenging as you want it to be.

Good value

In SA for a convention and clubhouse took a fifth no problem! Warned us of slower play ahead (1 walking in 100’ heat) felt like Marshall could have helped us out. We skipped them at 12 and finished at 4h30m. Greens were good, with a couple needing work. Fairways were great. Good challenging course with beautiful views and lots of wildlife. Will play again!
