Driving Directions

Public, 36 holes, $125.00 - $140.00

This 1600-acre master development includes two 18-hole courses, a 24,000-foot clubhouse and a hotel built adjacent to the course in 1999. La Cantera has been ranked one of the best resorts in America by Golf Magazine.

The Resort course's design includes natural water hazards -- including streams and waterfalls -- which come into play. Six holes offer panoramic views of the San Antonio area and many fairways are lined with oak trees. Seventy white-sand bunkers are spread throughout the course's design.

The 316-yard, par-4 seventh hole is called "The Rattler" and features a unique rattlesnake-shaped sand bunker on the left side of the fairway, along with several other fairway bunkers you'll need to avoid. Your tee shot is hit from a cliff 80 feet above the fairway with a great view of the roller coaster at Six Flags and many of the other amusement park rides in the distance. This course has hosted the PGA Tour's Texas Open several times.

Opened in March 2001, the Palmer Course is the latest addition to the La Cantera Resort. Palmer's fifth course is just over 7,000 yards long. The signature hole is the par-3 fourth, featuring dramatic waterfalls running along the entire front of the green and the Winnie Palmer Memorial Bridge.
