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.

Don't miss The Quarry!

Great experience all-round: front 9 is fun, but the magic starts on the back. Firing over water, elevated boxes, and the thrilling 17; take as much as you dare. Another consideration: the Quarry culture makes you feel welcomed...brings a smile. Friendly, helpful...what a great way to start! Greens were recently punched, but soon they will be perfect, as usual. Played it many times. Can't wait for the next time.

Greens Are Not Good Right Now

Here we are in late April and the greens at the Quarry are in bad shape. I'm surprised they are charging full rate when there's not a smooth green on the course. This has always been one of my favorite tracks until today. My experience was very out of character for this course. As is the case with most courses, they don't volunteer information that their course is temporarily substandard before you play it.

Late start time

Had to wait for a tournament to start. A bit annoying. Greens were recently plugged making them bumpy. Front nine was okay, but the back nine was unique. Staff and Marshal were very friendly and apologized was the late start.

Challenging layout

Staff / starter / Marshall all very nice. Was paired with 3 other players, very friendly and we all had a good time. Starter went over rules on first tee. Got 2 bags of range balls free which was a surprise. The tees, fairways, and layout out excellent.. greens recovering from aerification. Weren't real bad but not real good either.. course was challenging and fair except for 18.. hit what I thought was good drive down the middle, never found ball.. elephant hump in middle of fairway..will definitely play again.

One of the Best!

We are avid golfers having played too many courses to count over the years and this course ranks right up there. The course was in great shape, well layed out but the back 9 was the hilite - you have to see it to believe it! All the staff from the bag boys, to the starter, maintenance staff & restaurant staff were very friendly & helpful. Highly recommend.

Two Nines Deliver Two Different Golf Experiences

This course is challenging, more so on the back nine, but an interesting and satisfying layout. It is a fair test that makes you think about how much trouble you want to cut off on holes on the back nine with penalties for getting too greedy. It has plenty of variety with mentally challenging holes often followed by wide open, grip it and rip it holes. Like many courses in San Antonio, there are more elevation changes than one would think.

Great layout, great course!!

Love this course. Played TPC San Antonio and The Golf Club of Houston on my Texas trip and this course was actually my favorite of the 3 to play. Super cool layout, especially the back 9. Rewards shot-making. You definitely won't need to hit driver every hole and the back gets tight. The greens weren't in the best condition but then again, I had just played TPC San Antonio the day before but they did roll true and for golfing in March, that's good enough. Really enjoyed the course and looking forward to playing again on my next trip.

Absolute Gem

This course was in great shape especially for the time of year. I was so impressed that I played 36! The front nine is a more classically shaped with well placed bunkers and ponds. The back nine I where it gets interesting. With cliffs and boulders bordering the fairways , a well placed tee shot is a must. The greens were more of a medium speed, but rolled true with no dead patches. The service was great and the clubhouse had everything you needed for the round. I strongly recommend this course when you visit San Antonio.

The quarry golf course is a first rate facility, my wife and I enjoyed playing here very much.

Golf now pricing made this round of golf affordable, if I had to pay the regular rate, I could not have gone.

Firt time at the Quarry

Interesting course! The back nine layout down inside the old quarry has some neat views. The course was in tough shape but that was all due to the recent severe storm and the damage associated with it. Would like to go back in a month and play it again.

Great Day!

We are from Nebraska where many of the courses are flat so this was a nice change from what we are used to playing. The Quarry was recommended by a few SA friends and we are so glad we played it. Challenging with the elevation changes but a great course. Very scenic and loved that it been a quarry. The staff were all extremely nice - highly recommend this course.
