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.

Fun course, but plays slow

Played as a twosome and ended up behind several slow playing foursomes. 15-20 minutes per hole. I don’t mind things slowing down, as long as the groups in front make some sort of effort. They need a Marshall on the course to help with the pace of play. Unfortunately it ‘par for the course’ here.

A little stacked up

Played on a Monday afternoon hot deal. Wind was a factor as it seemed people were having to hit extra shots. We were slow from the second hole on but the company was good.5 1/2 hours but had a great time

Overpriced and underwhelming

Rude and unprofessional staff. Not friendly or welcoming to people of color. The white dude who runs the place is a complete horses you know what. He told me and my African American friend that the range was closed, as we watched 75 elderly white gentleman hit balls from a driving range that was clearly open. Its sad really, today felt like the 1950’s all over again. Places like this should not be allowed on Golf Now’s platform, its a bad look.

Aside from that, its overpriced for what you get. You can get better value for your money elsewhere. Also, I rented a set of clubs that somehow doubled as both the worst quality, and most expensive set ive ever used. Make it make sense? I would avoid this place at all costs, unless youre a local, senior golfer. My biggest regret is that I cant give zero stars.

Lots of potential

Because of timing, wasn't able to catch this course in prime conditions. I suspect it would be a spectacular track. Really like the layout but course conditions were less than stellar due to time of year.

Great with a few exceptions.

Silverhorn is a tough but enjoyable track. Its tight fairways, and often small elevated greens demand accuracy more than distance.

The conditions were excellent for winter golf and at the price point. A few sloped tee-boxes mixed in were a drawback but overall 8/10.

The staff was friendly as always and everyone there seems welcoming and kind.

Two large draw backs was the pace of play and bathrooms available. We were behind a group of 5 that were very slow, and had impatient people behind us hitting into us multiple times. The short par fours often cause traffic jams and it would be nice if they had a marshal keeping pace of play up and not allow groups of 5.

Bathrooms were also not available except for a portapotty. The woman in our group had no options and that really isn't okay for what they are charging.

Overall this course is a great option in San Antonio, but a few small things keep it from being an absolute gem.

Good course

Generally wide fairways on most holes. A couple holes on the back nine have deep ravines that you can’t see until you get closer. Takes a few rounds before you know how to manage your way around.

Greens were a bit rough and somewhat slow, as expected in early February. Good value.

Course in rough shape

The maintenance on the course left a lot to be desired. Greens and tee boxes weren't well maintained and a lot of dirt patches in the fairways.

Great course

Love this course. Only place I’ve played w/747’s flying over the sky and a family of deer watching me tee off. Lotsa of pressure!!!! Everyone was really nice, the pro shop the young lady in the bar. Can’t wait to play here again. We come down from NM every two yrs to play here.
