The signature 7th is a prime example: beautiful, offers a risky opportunity and a safe one as well. Photo submitted by u388669693 on 07/06/2019

Nice course, but.......
Played this course on a Saturday morning. I had played the Palmer course the day before and just preferred the Palmer course much better. The course was in good shape, beautiful venue, but I just found the course to be average.
A real challenge with beautiful views all around the course.
This was my first time to play the Resort Course at La Cantera, but I've been there several times. I've walked the course while watching the pros play in the Texas Open before it moved across town. The layout of the course is one of the most challenging I've played in my 53 year golfing history. However, the course condition was not what I observed when the course was hosting the PGA tour players. The greens were in really good condition, but the fairways were typical of what you might expect when playing in mid-Winter of a multi-year drought in the area -- less than great. The staff were all terrific, starting with the young fellows at the bag drop to the folks in the pro shop and the volunteer starter. An overall extremely enjoyable golf outing. I would recommend this course to anyone who wants to put their game to the test, but -- bring lots of golf balls and a good sand shot with you!!!
this course had some challenging holes, and the staff was very friendly and went out of their way to help us, very nice.
this is one of my favorite courses in San Antonio.
very challenging and well laid out course!
Had a blast! I would definatly drive the 50 miles each way to play again!
Pricey but nice
The Resort Course at La Cantera is pricey but nice. The view of downtown San Antonio from the 10th green is impressive. It was fun to see the carved stones commemorating past champions of the PGA tour event that was once played at La Cantera.
Love the views. Staff is super polite!
Wide open fairways make this course a joy to play, but be careful as there are many well placed bunkers to make you pay should you choose to take risks. A wide range of tee boxes to challenge golfers of all handicaps. The staff is top notch and some of the nicest people you'll ever encounter.
Challenging layout with a lot of great features.
After playing this course I can fully understand why it was home to a PGA tour event. It requires careful shot placement and shows no quarter on a missed shot. The greens were smooth and consistent, but pretty tough to read correctly. There are a lot of elevation changes, sloped fairways and well placed bunkers to demand your "A" game. The signature hole, a short par 4 was nicely laid out and came with the added bonus of roller coaster views in the background. The staff was very friendly and quite helpful. Overall a really good course that is worth the play. I do, however have a few negatives from the experience to share. First, the clubhouse restaurant only offered breakfast tacos, at 10:30 AM. The main room just up the hill was serving a buffet. it was quite pricey, yet sparse in selection and quality. My second negative is that this is one of the feature resort courses of the area that commands a premium price and yet they do not overseed the fairways to keep the "A" quality conditions you expect from a course of this stature. I suggest waiting for the warmer months to play this course.
A real joy
From the tee box to the green, this course is first rate. The greens are moderate to challenging. Sand traps are well maintained - if you happen to experience them. Overall, one of the best courses in San Antonio.
Watch your belongings
My rangefinder was taken from my cart at the practice range. There was lots of staff, only 5 players including me and I played with 4 of them. The Proshop didn't seem concerned. I was out $300 and frustrated the rest of the day. Fair warning don't let them have access to your stuff.
The setup is great
This course has great views, A course like this where a PGA event used to be played. They should overseed the fairways and greens, some greens were fast and some were slow, no one in our group could get the speed of the greens right, all of us were 2 -5 handicap. The price was right, booking on golfnow.
Fun and beautiful
We found the course challenging, as it being a previous PGA tour site. Some holes you need to be cautious about laying up and some have a elevated tee where it is bombs away! The views are spectacular and we enjoyed ourselves tremendously. Being a municipal course frequenter, it was nice having car side bag service, so bring extra cash for tips. Definitely recommend
Great value
This course is a challenge. It offers views of the city and of the texas hill country. The staff is always very accommodating and friendly.
La Cantera Resort course
Fantastic course. All the staff i came across were friendly, helpful & knowledgeable.
Great course
This is a great course, I always love both coarses at La Cantera but usually feel a little better about my swing after playing the resort course. And you have to love hitting into a canyon next to roller coasters.
This course is a great place to play!
This course is a fantastic place to play. The staff is the best around. From the second we pulled in to the time they brought us our truck, it was all about us. I've played several courses in and around San Antonio and this was by far the best so far! The course it self was just amazing!! Breath taking views and amazing greens just set the tone for a great day. I work at a golf course and I tried to find defects but came up empty handed. This is a course I can't wait to play again. The course isn't so challenging that an average player couldn't handle it. There are some deceiving greens that will certinly make you be on your "A" game though! I will defintly recomend this course to every golfer I know!
Nice resort course in decent condition
One of the better courses I have played in the area. Good design with some interesting holes and nice views of downtown San Antonio in the distance.
your reviw bars are useless. it woud not let me adjust my opinion. I had to select left middle or right.I I
I have been looking forward to playing this course for years. Toughest greens I've ever tied to read . Loved the fairways. Would not pay walk-on prices to play again.
Great course condition. good pace of play. Friendly staffs.
Always enjoy this course. Staffs are friendly and course is in great condition. The views from this course is uniquely beautiful. This is my home course away from home.
beautiful views of San Antonio
