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.

First time I played with the new greens. They are a definite improvement.

The fairways, especially the back nine, need attention. Holes 17 & 18 have a lot of bare dirt where grass should be.

Staff has been very helpful every time I’ve played the course or used the practice facility.

Not for the price...

Beautiful drive in, the lady in the pro shop was really nice, and the range and practice green were nice.

The girls in the bar made the sloppiest, most careless Bloody Mary I've ever had. We loaded our cart and headed to the range when the car started beeping g at us for low battery charge. Drove back and traded carts to have the "new cart" have major wheel issues later in the round. The cart girl yelled "you don't want anything do you?" as she drove by on the front, and was cold at best when we passed her on the back.

The course is laid out well, the greens are TOUGH but the grass is nice. BUT... some truly brutal spots on the fairway. I played a course 10 miles north in NB 4 days earlier for the same price and it was in much better shape.

For this price on a weekday, the course and carts were poorly maintained and the people weren't nice (except the lady in the pro shop).

I played this course because I remember it being an absolute steal, but it wasn't what I remember. There are MUCH better golf deals within 20 miles of this.

Update

The new course renovation turned out really nice. The greens are really looking good. Fairways in pretty good shape with some bare spots but not to bad considering not much rain the last 3 months. Pace if play was good 4.5 hrs for a round. Would have been good to see a beverage cart during the round but none showed up.

Overall nice updates and getting better. Will be back

Staff are very friendly and helpful. Course is in good condition, bunkers were hard, I am used to more loose sand bunkers. Greens and fairways are in good condition, some areas of the tee boxes were hard to out in tees but overall, a good challenging course. My group had a 0710-tee time and we did not see the beverage cart until we were about 3/4 of the way through the course.

Great course!!

Olympia Hills golf course was an enjoyable outing. Coming from out of town to play golf and found this course by looking at its website pictures. The course is challenging but not so much that it was not enjoyable. The conditions were really good especially the front nine. The back nine greens were not the same as the front nine greens but definitely not horrible. The starters as well as the greens upkeep team were very friendly and respectful of the players. Pace of play was also great. I would definitely recommend playing this course.

Coming around nicely since the new greens are growing in

Great course can be very challenging and can truly test your skills on all holes. Greens are coming along nicely and pace if okay was pretty good. Was right at 4 hours for our group of 4 to okay and wee teed off at noon.
