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.

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.

Trees

I think I hit every tree on this course (lol) it’s very nice course, some greens are needing repairs and the bunkers were tore up by deer and players, oh and the trees.

Nice course okay condition

Silverhorn is a great layout with lots of challenges via trees and narrow fairways. The greens are decent but this time of year there are lots of tree debris on the greens which also need to be rolled more often. All in all, great course in a central location.
