Silverhorn Golf Club of Texas, located only 15 minutes from San Antonio's Riverwalk, has quickly gained a reputation as being some of the best golf in Texas. The layout covers 262 scenic acres of rolling hills covered in mature oaks and cedar trees. The challenging golf course features tree-lined fairways and carefully contoured greens. There are also lakes and creeks, both dry and wet, coming into play throughout the golf course. The front nine's signature hole is the par-5 sixth, which has 20 acres of water bordering the entire left side, while the back nine's signature is the par-4 15th, which is considered the toughest hole on the golf course. This 446-yard hole features an elevated green that is guarded by a large bunker on the left and two creeks crossing the fairway.

Not Worth the Money

While most of the course conditions were good, they were not good enough to warrant this price point. Additionally, the guy in the pro shop, Ron, should probably find a career which doesn't require that he interact with people, just a complete tool, barking orders through the loud speaker from his perch inside the shop. Used to play this course quite a bit, but would have to question my decision if I did so again.

Nice Course in Good Shape

The course has a good layout and is in good shape even though there has been a drought in the area. The course was green from tee to green. They sanded the greens within the last few days, so they were really slow. Once the sand settles in, the greens will likely be very good.

The course is really firm right now and it is pretty tight. Our foursome had many shots run into trouble that we thought would finish in good shape. Overall, we really enjoyed the course and would play it again.

Really fun and challenging course!

This is a fantastic course! Decent price for twilight but regular price is a little pricey for me. Only thing for how much regular weekend price is I would think they would have a GPS in the cart. Back 9 is pretty tight so have your tee shots ready to keep the ball in play!

4/5

No scorecards. They make you download their app and keep score on your phone.

Course is short. Layout has you hitting every club in your bag. Course condition was pretty good but I wouldn’t pay full price to play this course.

This course is not on the USGA GHIN list.

3.29.2023 - Course Review

The course itself was pretty nice as far as the layout goes. We had a blast and got paired with 2 really good randoms. Beautiful Course overall, lots of unique holes. I imagine when this course is in perfect condition its phenomenal.

With that being said the price is not really appropriate to the conditions it was in. Spent over $100 per round and it was not in good enough shape to justify that. Driving range was set up to where you were hitting at a downward angle. Basically all of the greens were very slow and had weeds coming through in multiple spots. The tee boxes were definitely not mowed very short in my opinion. Not a huge deal for the P4s and P5s but not ok to have grass between ball and club on tee on Par 3. There was another tee box that was basically all sand as well.

Wish it Wasn't but it's just Average

I've played this course plenty of times... but had not played since they remodeled the restaurant. They stopped doing a military discount so the fellas and I (all retired military) took it out of our rotation. However, we finally decided to go back and check things out......Completely Underwhelmed.

To be fair, I like this course's layout, playability and its a popular one in the local area. Also, the restaurant upgrades look fantastic and the staff is always amazing at this course. That being said, it's just not worth $100 for a round of golf... especially without a military discount. For God's sake, San Antonio is Military City USA!!!

Come on Silverhorn, support us and we will support you!

Nice course, but pace of play is abysmal.

The course is fun to play and can be very challenging at times.

Overall, there is never a Marshall so the pace of place is very, very slow.

I would not play in the future unless it is the only course available. I hate rounds taking 5 hours.

The staff are very nice and friendly.

Will come back.

We would like to see better coloured markers for tees.

The tee boxes were very dry and hard to put your tee into.
