The land that now provides a home to Quarry Golf Course was formerly the abandoned Alamo Cement plant. Keith Foster converted this unique location into a challenging layout with a links-style front nine and a back nine that plays entirely through an abandoned rock quarry with walls over a 100 feet tall on three sides. The first half of the golf course features plays through open fields of rolling hills with native grasses and a near absence of trees. Creeks and streams come into play on six holes of the front nine. The quarry pit on the back nine is truly the most unique feature on the golf course. Quarry Golf Course's most dramatic hole is the 17th, which requires a tee shot over a deep ravine that is framed by a 40-foot waterfall.

Needs marshalling!

There was a group of 6 ahead of us that the starter broke up at the start, but they got together again after playing the first hole. It appeared the starter approached them again around hole 6, but no changes were made. 5somes are bad enough and should not be allowed, but 6 is outrageous especially during a weekend round. Staff doesn't seem to care about managing their own course.

Wet but wonderful

Ok. Here goes nothing, let me start off by saying the entire area got a ton of rain over the past few days so.... cart path only! Nothing the course can do about Mother nature. I hover around a 12 handicap. I normally play standard men's white tee. Since no white tee on card O played the middle men's tee titled championship. Course is short on the card but played longer today due to the soft conditions. My group played lift clean and place. And let me tell ya mud mud and more mud on the ball. Tee and greens were in great shape. Ball rolled true. I am guessing in better weather they would be on the fast side. Today a little on the slow side. The surrounding area on the front is wide open the back is tighter and has rock cliffs and Boulders everywhere. If you are striking it well, and keeping it straight (ish) posting a good score is more than possible. 77 for me today, (key was playing it straight and no penalties). I would recommend this to anyone who wants to play an visually stimulating course and have tons of fun. Staff was great and food and drink was more than reasonable.

Impressed. But still overpriced.

Nice course, but not a 150+ course. We got in on a hot deal so I was happy for a discounted rate. Range and practice greens were nice. Carts are really nice. Tight course at times. Greens are nice even for January. Nice course but definitely overpriced. I’ll be back on a hot deal this spring for sure.

Greens were good, pace of play was slow

Got a good rate using Hot Deal, but would never pay the regular rate of $99 for this course. Some tee times are even higher ($178) and this course is Definitely not worth that fee. But good course overall and Dustin is a great GM

Unique Course

I played The Quarry Golf Course on a tip from a friend. It is an intriguing layout featuring a links-style front nine and locating the back nine in the abandoned Alamo Cement Company quarry that was closed in the 1990s and transformed to what World Traveler magazine regards at “the #7 Most Unique Golf Course in the world.” A friendly staff and excellent playing conditions added to the experience. The layout is fair and playable. The par 3s are varied in distance and aesthetics. Some of the longer par 4s are among the toughest low handicap holes on the course. Capture memorable photos along the way (use your panoramic mode on occasion) and then quickly refocus on the task at hand. “Remember the Alamo!” is the local historic battlecry. And I’ll not forget The Quarry Golf Course either, located just 10 minutes from downtown San Antonio and 4 minutes from the international airport. Note: A complete greens restoration project is planned for May to September 2024 and the course will be closed. The greens are in very good condition, but after 30-years they will be replaced next summer. So, play it while you can before the project begins.
