Reviews
Great time. Great layout
Beadre lutiful course. A little dry. But that's all of San antonio.
Value course
You can get a really cheap rate to play this course, and it is not a difficult course. It has some interesting elevation changes, but it’s overall not very challenging. My only gripe is with the gentleman in the pro shop (the older one). He is always very impersonal almost to the point of being rude.
Course has some tough holes with hills
Tee to green the. Purse was in good shape even in the hot summer weather. If you get into the rough due to a bad slice or hook, than these areas were in bad shape due to a lack of water here. So, just stay in the fairway and you will be ok. I wish I could take my own advice on that ....lol
Great course
Temp might have been pretty high but it felt very pleasant on the golf course. I guess the humidity was low and a nice breeze made it so nice. Greens are in great condition. Looking forward to playing this golf course again!
Needed water - none found
I really don't understand the five-star reviews. This course is in poor condition tee to green. Many fairways gone....
Play eleswhere.
Quality Visit
Course was I good shape and everything was enjoyable; even got treated to “retreat” on the 13th hole which brought back Lackland memories
Can't beat the price
For the price this course is excellent. During the week wasn't too busy.
Great day at LAFB
Had a great day at Gateway Hills. Pro shop staff was top shelf and let us start our round 25 min prior to our scheduled time. Course was in really good shape and the greens were soft and receptive to approach shots. Only down side to entire experience was a group of 5 older female golfers who would not let people play through. After we got past them, the entire course was open and we breezed through our round. Course is in best shape it has been for many years and you can tell their hard work is paying off. Kudos to LAFB.
Very enjoyable
Gateway Hills has completed the renovation on hole one...They did a great job. Hope they fix number 10 next. My swing was good .....why didn't those putts go in!!!!
Great course
Enjoyed the round. But, if you get there early (before your tee time) don’t expect to get on the course (even if you’re the only one there) Unless you pay an extra $10!!!. This is a change from the past. Not sure why the change.
Beautiful day for golf
Drainage on hole 1 is complete...Wow nice improvement. Hope they work on hole 10 sometime soon. Met some good old guys waiting for group in front of them.....The 92 year old was just a little slow. Could be he was taking his time .....working on all those pars!
Gateway Hills getting ready for Summer
Working hard to be ready for the Summer. Can’t wait to see the course in May.
Great Layout
While the course is in need of some work, it is a quiet and peaceful tract. I enjoyed the elevation changes and wide fairways. Always great to see USAirforce Cargo planes overhead!
Always enjoy playing Gateway Hills
Enjoyed the round..... Hope when the weather is better they can fix all those water leaks..Hole number one should be in great shape maybe two more months!
Good course, fairways need TLC
To play for less than $20 it’s a good course to play. There is work being done on a couple of the fairways and a lot of other fairways could use more grass.
GREAT TIME
The course is undergoing some renovations so we had to skip the first hole. There was work elsewhere but it all worked out.
The greens were fast after they dried out. The players who dig the ball out of the cup with their putter are destroying the edges. It is sad that they don't find a less destructive way to retrieve the ball.
Gateway to the Air Force
Always enjoy playing at Lackland AFB. Hole one closed .....fixing drainage problem.....hope they several other areas.
