Rating 74.9

Canyon Springs Golf Club is a true Hill Country course. You need to stay on the fairways or bring plenty of balls. Using an old farm to build on this choice piece of Texas real estate, this land has been artfully transformed into what many golfers will refer to as among the very best of what Texas has to offer. With five sets of tee boxes on each hole, demanding greens, natural Hill Country surroundings and magnificent limestone waterfalls on two holes, this 7,000-plus-yard course presents a significant challenge to event the most experienced golfers (and even those who think they are).

Great Round

Fast pace, wide fairways, challenging greens, bunkers okay, elevation helps on a hot day but wind a factor.

Challenging in the wind

Hot and windy - a typical mid-August Texas day on the links. Holes 16-18 were quite difficult as they play directly into the prevailing "breeze" (20 mph and gusty this day). Undulating but fairly straightforward layout - not Oakmont or Colonial CC but definitely way above a muni. A few longish holes, but mostly on the shorter side, with many par 4s only needing a 3-wood to get to wedge or short-iron approach distance (I played from the middle tees). I enjoyed the downhill tee shots on several holes - quite scenic. The greens were fairly smooth with some pretty strong slopes, but seemed a little stressed - it looks like they had spread a lot of grass seed with sand recently - or maybe just been aerated. The margin of error on most tee shots is small, mostly because of the really tall (3-5') grass that just swallows way-offline shots (yeah, I had a few of those). Shot an 84 losing 5 balls sightseeing the course, so it's quite doable, mainly because all those wicked areas play as lateral hazards (not o/b or lost ball). Super nice folks running the place - very welcoming atmosphere, charming rustic decor and down-home country atmosphere. I'll be back.

Poor staff attitude

They let a group of SIX go ahead of us. The marshal seemed unhappy that people were even showing up to golf. Great course. Awful service

Spacious

Great how the course was spaced out and you're not playing on top of others.

I wasn't impressed by the location for the ladies tee boxes but my boyfriend loved the challenge of his round of golf. He did an 84.

The views are great and nice waterfall on the 18.

Greens rolled. Lost view of where the ball landed due to the tall weeds

Hidden gem in the Hill country

Course was challenging yet beautiful. Grass looked great everywhere despite the south Texas heat and sun. Bring balls if you’re not a fairway finder. Greens are a good roll and sloped. Definitely be back!

The course was a challenge but the scenery makes you feel miles away from everything. Layout was awesome and the greens were near perfect.

Excellent Layout

First time playing Canyon Springs and must admit, I was pleasantly surprised. This is a diamond in the rough.....just north of San Antonio within 30 minutes from my home, the staff was friendly/helpful and the course was in excellent condition. It was an amazing round of golf.

Excellent course but unacceptable pace of play

Pace of play way too slow for number of players on the course. Great layout and really friendly staff. Would suggest you move the super slow players ahead or off the course. Had a crew sanding greens in front of us and another work crew jumping in front of us edging the greens.

Staff

Don’t get me wrong, the course is nice and in good shape. However, for the money you pay, you expect the customer service to be on point. Starter no personality when it came to getting you out, cart girl pretty looked like she was being inconvenienced with our drinks and snack orders both times we saw her. Wonder if her and the starter were related. Just poor customer service from the get go. Course was great and shot my best round there.
