Best Conditions in SA

While San Antonio struggles with keeping their courses hydrated between May and October, La Cantera has it figured out. Tee boxes, fairways, bunkers, and greens are all in phenomenal shape for already being near 100°. I will be back routinely.

Nice course

Greens had a layer of sand that didn’t allow for true putts.

Hill Country Gem

Played while visiting San Antonio on business. Had an early tee time and got out ahead most of the groups.

Staff was friendly and accommodating. Rental clubs were a good set of Callaways. They provide a pouch with 6 balls with the rental clubs. The course has a nice grass driving range with a short game area.

The layout has a fair amount of elevation change. Consistent with other hill country courses, there are a lot of trees. Fairways were pristine and the first cut of rough was playable. Some deeper rough awaits if you miss big. Bunkers are well placed and there are a few water hazards to keep it interesting. Greens had a lot of grain and plenty of humps and bumps.

I’d play it again.

Thank you for playing and for providing feedback. We have verticut the greens three times since your last round and we have aerification scheduled in June. These practices will improve the putting surfaces. Please come back next time you are in town.

Outstanding Golf Resort Course

The La Cantera Resort Golf Club exceeded my expectations. The course overall design was spectacular. Elevated tee boxes, plunging tee shots, and numerous risk-reward options made the round exciting and enjoyable. The fairways and greens were perfectly maintained and generous. Distance was not a problem due to multiple sets of tees. I felt like a PGA Tour player! One of the best golf courses in the State of Texas. Perfect vacation destination golf course.

Great day at La Cantera

The golf course was in great shape. The staff was helpful and friendly. We had some drinks and food in the bar afterwards and, honestly, they have better food than many restaurants and I intend to go back just to eat there!
