About

Holes 18
Type Public
Par 71
Length 6436 yards
Slope 122
Rating 70.4

Alsatian GC is an 18-hole with water in play. Front side fairly open and flat, almost links type play. Hole 2 surrounded by waterways and bunkers. Back side is hilly and has lots of trees. Super finishing hole with a tree in center of uphill fairway.

Throughout the course you will find challenging and beautiful fairways lined with trees and Spanish Dagger. The course also offers distance wedge game range, practice bunkers, three-level putting green, and a pre-round putting green.

Lodging: The Alsatian Inn is located approximately two miles from the club. A very nice facility, it has ninety rooms, a swimming pool, and a really good restaurant. Children under the age of fourteen stay free.

Distance: About 30 minutes from downtown on Highway
90 West to Castroville. But worth the trip....  Take Highway 90 West through Castroville; turn right at the blinking light just past the Alsatian Inn; veer left on CR 4516. Course is 2.5 miles down on the right.

Best Value in the area

The course went through a redesign and hole #2 is a gimmicky hole. Other than that, there’s some risk / reward holes like a short par 4 with a narrow green and water protecting the run-up on the left side and two finishing par 5’s that can be reachable with a drive in the fairway. The staff is incredible and have always treated us like family. Julianna’s restaurant is a hidden gem with delectable food and a great drink variety. I would recommend this course / restaurant to anyone visiting the Hill country in Texas.

Greens were great.

The course was in good shape considering we haven’t had much rain lately. The greens looked like an oasis in the middle of all the brown. The course was in great shape and my friends and I enjoyed our round.

Caught behind tournament

Longest round I’ve ever played. The 2 groups ahead were 2.5 holes off the pace. Teeing off 17, group in fairway, and another group on green. No one in front of them. Both groups spent 20 minutes just on the greens. Lucky to finish with daylight.

I appreciate the 4 star review; however, I am so sorry you were delayed. We had over 215 rounds on Wednesday the 16th. It was extremely busy. I do not like to hear that the group in front of you had 2 holes open in front of them. I had marshals and starters all day. I am really upset this was not addressed. In the future, please call the pro shop and we will take immediate action. We want our golfers to enjoy their round at a decent pace of play!\\Sincerely,
Laura Reed, Manager

They seem ok

All was great except for the marshals. A marshal followed us for 5 holes then left and a second marshal followed us for another 5 holes then left and a 3rd marshal followed us for another 4 holes. We were never slow, yet all the marshals told not asked that we move on, we played all e8 in 4 hours and 20 minutes. It was difficult to play comfortably because they were so close you would have thought they were part of our group + hounding us, he even stood on tee box for first 5 holes. We may or may not go back, not sure at this time I have played there before several times and was treated like that. All was good except the marshal problem. Not sure of date because this request just came in and I'm certain it was several weeks ago.

Marshall

Marshall needs to check pace of play more often. A 3some was ahead of our 4man group. There was 1 almost two open holes ahead of the 3some. Marshall had them speed it up on the 11th hole, finally!

Thank you for the comments. Our Marshals are overwhelmed some days with the amount of play! If this happens again, please call the Pro Shop and we will get on the situation immediately. We do not like any of our golfers inconvenienced by slow play. Thank you for the good review. We appreciate your business.

Greens are in great condition!

Greens were running quick and true. There are a few greens that have some rough spots but other than questionable hole placement, they were in good shape. The rest of the course is in good winter condition.

Sooo slow.

Why do they let groups of 5 play? And these guys mark Every putt…. no one starts putting and putts out! I was a single - joined up with another golfer- we joined two more golfers and waited to hit every shot -every hole. Love the course - but not when it’s so slow!
