Rating 72.0

Situated on the north bank of the Guadalupe River, Starcke Park Golf Course (formerly known as Max Starcke Park Golf Course) stretches across a scenic landscape of century-old pecan trees. The golf course is easy to walk being of mostly flat terrain. Trees line the fairways, making accurate tee shots top priority in scoring well. There are also strategically placed bunkers throughout the golf course and water hazards coming into play on a few holes for added challenge. Starcke Park Golf Course’s signature hole is the par-4 finishing hole, which requires a tee shot down a narrow fairway bordered by pecan trees on the right and a pond on the left. Considered one of the best municipal golf courses in Texas, Max Starcke Park G.C. also offers a practice and putting green and driving range.

Good for the money

Good value. No waiting when we went on a clear blue sky Saturday.
Pros
-Grip and Rip because there is not many tee shots with trouble.
-A couple of the Par 4s were reachable from the Tee

Cons
-Greens were not green and inconsistent, I'm not mad about it, could be the season. They were rock hard and fast and nothing stayed in it no matter the spin.
-Hole variety is lacking, many of the holes are IDENTICAL to each other.

Overall it was still worth the money so I will play here again.

Course was in great condition for this time of year - greens were challenging due to slopes and speed - I’ll definitely play this course again!

Winter conditions were great

Not as much patchiness as you’d expect fairways were nice for it being winter, greens were okay you could see the work being done to make them much better in the near future. Could’ve used some warm food for the turn

Great course conditions!

I was very surprised how green grass was and the shape of the course when it was the hottest part of the summer! The course is a lot longer than I expected and definitely recommend the course for the price!

Solid Course

Overall had a good experience at the course. Worth it for the price point they’re asking, especially when it’s on sale. Driving range and layout is lacking in some departments, but nonetheless it was a good time.
