Great course

Course was in great shape and greens played very good. Only issue was cart girl availability. We finally got her on the last hole of the round.

Resort fun

More enjoyable of the two La Cantera courses. Not as many blind shots. Greens are tricky. Staff is friendly. Conditions are always good. Always a good choice for a solid round of golf. Enjoy.

Hill Country best

The La Cabrera’s Resort course is one of the hill country’s best. I like this one better than the Palmer. It plays a few shots easier in my opinion. Greens are fast and fun. Being in the right spot is a must to score well. Go play and enjoy.

Firm. Fast. One of the best.

Played on a beautiful Sunday afternoon. The greens were firmed up a bit (perfect) and extremely fast. With the slopes, a two putt here is a very good thing. If playing soon, most tees are generally moved up a box, so play back one set. Gold/silver will suffice for most. Try to be cognizant that many greens are multiple tiered. So getting the right tier is of utmost importance if trying to score well. Go play and enjoy, one of the best in San Antonio.

Top 3 Course in SA

Course is majestic. If you’re looking for a great course with great scenic views or want to impress somebody, this is a great choice. Elevated shots. Challenging holes. Great green fairways. Tea boxes need a little work but not too bad. Greens are tough due to lots of slopes but roll true. Lots of risk reward. Worst part of the course is the greens don’t catch any shots so you can’t play any spin or check shots on the greens, but that’s ok because it presents another challenge & they are all consistent. Overall, 5/5 stars. Can’t wait to come back here already!

Beautiful course with outstanding views from elevation. Challenging, but fun if you can hit it long. Greens are very good and will keep you grinding to try and understand which way the ball will break due to the influence of the hills.

Second class citizen

I have played this course a number of times. I actually have their “twosome card.” But this time I booked through Golfnow because they beat the course rate considerably (not to mention I cannot use their own booking engine with my iPhone). I was treated like a second class citizen which the pro shop staff member actually said was because I booked through Golfnow. I even left before getting to play forfeiting my pre-paid round because of how I was treated. I am in absolutely no hurry to give this course any more of my money.

Great Course

Great course with an awesome staff. On course beverages are pretty expensive as well as being expensive even during happy hour at the 19th hole.

Cool day but a great round

Weather was cool staring early this am but warmed up. Fairways were in good shape. Greens Rolled well and seemed quick but not crazy fast. This is a resort course so not the longest, or the most difficult in the area but it has very scenic views but still a challenging layout. This course is a good example of Hill Country golf.
