Olympia Hills Golf Course
About
Olympia Hills Golf Course is very exciting and enhances San Antonio's reputation as a golf destination. A unique combination of natural topography and man-made mounds and bunkers make this a super course. Native South Texas vegetation and golf course grass seed formulations on fairways and greens will provide state-of-the-game playing surfaces. The views are spectacular, with several holes playing to greens well below the tees, while other lead to a significant rise to reach the putting surface. Fairways, which on some holes are tight, are often sloped and guarded by bunkers. The tips will not be played by the faint hearted, but with four sets of tee boxes, the course can be enjoyed by all levels of players.

Over watered greens were super soggy
They definitely need to space out the tee times because this Friday was way over crowded. They ran out of carts so plenty of people were complaining they had to walk down to the practice area.
Carts were not being delivered until 5 min after supposed tee time.
When you did start playing it was a hit & wait fbecause there were 3 groups on each hole.
2 playing partners had never played here & they will never come back because it took 45 min to play the first 2 holes.
The greens were so over watered that balls were cratering upon landing and there were spike marks and ball marks all over every green. They were mushy and slow. The greens definitely need to be re-done; there are weeds growing on every single one. Cart girl only passed by twice the whole round.
There was also a wedding so we had to drive reverse upon ending and disturbed every group we passed plus added more time to our 5+ hour round. There needs to be major changes.
golf course
golf course was good condition, little wet some rain, staff assumes I have been there before or not friendly no direction on what to do example see starter to play where hole number one is? just overall apathy not rude just not overall friendly. Had golf cart issue 2nd day was delivered a new working cart on the 2nd hole. that was helpful.
Pacing
We were following a group of 3 that waits for the players infront of to leave the green before hitting their drives on a par 4 when they can’t even hit the 150 yards marker..and yet they don’t even let us (2 players) to pass through them.They do more talking than playing.
Good course for this area but I dont think I'll play it again.
Got paired up with 3 other blokes. The other two's cart kept stopping because the gps mapping was off and I think it affected one guys game because he became irate and started throwing clubs.
Course did have some pretty holes but I am not a fan of all the blind shots and bunkers. They try to take the driver out of your hand on most holes. The blind shots are dangerous and some idiot actually hit a ball that richochted off of our inside the cart.
The other problem was the greens were too shaggy and the ball was not rolling out very well. I came out wanting to shoot a good number but I left so many putts short due to those thick, soft greens.
It was fun but I'll probably never play it again because its a long ways off and I dont care for the layout.
Cheers!

Greens were okay little patchy with crabgrass (?). Course was in good shapes
Great course for the price
Greens were better than in the past… great course for the price..
The greens were a little rough
My tee time was for 1:20 PM but did not tee off until 1:35. Most of the greens were rough and need work.
The pace of play was very slow and did not see a marshall trying to speed up play
Getting a little better
The greens were absolutely horrible at the start of the summer. They have mostly filled back in but several are still pretty rough and have a lot of crab grass. Management definitely needs to put more work into the greens before next season.
Elevation changes
Given the hot and dry summer we had the course was in good condition. The first green and a couple of others had an invasive weed growing, but most of the greens were in good condition. The greens were slow however. The traps need work, the sand was thin in most of them. Fairways were generally ok.
The course layout has some great holes with big elevation changes on the first 11 holes. The price is good, so the value for the money is decent.
Slow
This is the second time in a row I did not finish the round because of slow play. This is one of the worst courses we play for this issue...don't think they even have a marshal that tracks play times...
Great Course
Play was well organized w/o a wait on a Saturday afternoon. Starter was great. Food at the turn took longer than expected since we ordered wraps, but the hot dogs were a much quicker option.
Garvage
I was disappointed in the fact that the course had a lot of garbage from the people throwing their beer cans and garbage on the course.
The fact that they did not have someone picking up the garbage and also that those using the course had little respect for the others was disappointing.
