Best in SA 2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Played on:Nov 5, 2017 Played the course:5+ times

Pros:

This course is one of the best maintained courses I have ever played. Mowed fairways and greens with a trash can on every hole. I have honestly played "pay to play" courses that were not as well maintained as this. Has a portajohn at the entrance to the park.

The course has a lot of variety for its size. Front nine is generally flat and open with three 570+ holes, two 300 footers and the rest playing between 200-240. Has a short and long box on each hole for any level of experience.

Back nine is tighter and more wooded while playing along the San Antonio River. Offers great shade and beautiful scenery. The back nine has interesting elevation changes and a good mix of right and left turning holes, also a few good ace runs.

Cons:

Front nine doesn't have much shade so bring a hat if you're going in the summer. Bugs can get bad as you go down towards the back nine and the river so bring spray. Course doesn't handle heavy rain or severe winds well.

The course is 25 minutes from downtown but I think it's worth it. I don't really consider it a con with low traffic there and low foot traffic on the course once you arrive but figured the drive was worth noting somewhere.

Other Thoughts:

Park also includes picnic benches, places to grill and a launch for kayaks. A convenience store is less than a mile out if you forget something or need to fill up/rehydrate/dehydrate etc. With the short and long boxes it makes a great course for beginners and more experienced players alike. If I could only play one course in SA this would honestly be it.
