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.

Coming Back.

Olympia Hills was playing nice today. Tee boxes were lush, fairways were pure, and greens were for the most part great. I will definitely be coming back soon and will add it back into the monthly rotation. I know the greens were redone recently and they are looking amazing, but the only complaint is that they are still a little bumpy. But I’m sure over the coming months that’ll get fixed. Great job to the staff and agronomy team at OH.

Pin placement

Pins seemed to be placed on slopes with significant angles. Somewhat overdone. Lots of grain on the greens.

Rainy review

Even though it was raining out the course still played great. The greens were hard to figure out just because of all the water but even with that struggle my partner and I shot a decent round. I fell that the rain and foggy weather just helped to add more beauty to this wonderful course.

Over prices under maintained

Although there is now grass where there was none on the greens they are un puttable . Many fairways are nothing but dirt. Te price to play is way outside of line too the course conditions. Spend your money to play playable golf courses.

Still not in shape

Greens still in bad shape. Roll them every once in awhile. Ball bounces almost all the way to the hole on all putts.

T box’s hard as a rock. I know water is tight but dang. So many bare dirt spots. Several holes have 30-50 yard long bare dirt spots.

City of Universal City needs to put so money into basic course management. Watering and rolling and doing something about all the dirt areas.

Only things good with this place unfortunately is the driving range facility and cost are still a good deal and the folks in the clubhouse and snack bar are nice and friendly. This used to be such a nice course.

Greens are rough

Course is in decent shape considering the time of year but their greens are terrible. So bumpy even the short putts are unpredictable and bounce all over. If the greens were decent this would be a good course but it’s almost unputtable the way it is now.

Great Experience playing the course

My experience at Olympia Hills was very positive. The course’s variety of holes had nice framing of the greens with interesting hole layouts and nice layup tee shots.

Lots of elevation changes and quality fairways . The staff is incredibly friendly and accommodating at the pro shop & the Bar and Grill .

I liked how the Marshalls maintained the flow of playing. The course was very enjoyable to play. I had a great time and will come back.
