South Padre Island Golf Club - 18 Holes Course

Found too many dirt areas where grass hasn’t grown. Greens in pretty good shape. The aprons and fringe areas in bad shape. Great layout, a lot of holes the shot to the green has trouble if you are not accurate. Too much money for for condition. Tierra Santa much better Riverbend much more value

(Out of Towner/Vacationer Review)

The course was in good shape and well maintained. The greens, fairways, and tee boxes were not as cut back as one would look for at a typical course. But I think this is just a product of being a course near the ocean and trying to keeping the grass from dying. There were a few greens that had some rough spots, but again overall in good shape and roll pretty true.

The course was going under a lot of maintenance at the time I played. With that being said I wish it was discounted instead of full price. I had a 7:12 am tee time and the sun rise was beautiful on the laguna madre view. The greens were in good condition, fairways needed work as a lot of maintenance was going on and the tee boxes were still fresh new patches of grass so they still need to do Something about that I couldn’t see my ball while teed up.

We come to SPI at least once a year and look forward to getting a round in with my son when we’re down there. It’s the best course near the island. However it seems like there’s always some kind of maintenance going on when we go (typically travel down there during the summer months). This time the greens were in fairly good condition. But the tee boxes were being worked on. I know they did the best that they could but some of the temp boxes were in terrible spots / condition. I realize golf courses are always under maintenance more often than not. My only request would be that this be reflected in the price with some kind of discount. Regardless the staff is always friendly and the food at the grill is pretty good. I’ll be back next year.
