Brackenridge Park
Brackenridge Park Golf Course is reputedly the oldest course in Texas, and was designed by the much revered Albert W. Tillinghast. Following a substantial 2008 renovation, this municipal facility once again follows Tillinghast's original routing, and offers a generally well-regarded layout, which includes several attractive holes and features.
This tree-lined and open parkland layout will test most facets of your game, and should provide a round with plenty of enjoyable golfing challenges. Worth visiting if you are in the area.
Visitors welcome on weekdays and weekends.
Must book in advance.
Walking permitted. Golf carts available to rent.
Good (driving range located 1 mi N of Brackenridge Park clubhouse).
The 2008 restoration of "Old Brack" re-routed the course back to Tillinghast's original layout and renewed its condition to compete with some of San Antonio's premier golf courses. Brackenridge Park is also the new site of the Texas Golf Hall of Fame, with its clubhouse home to the "Walk of Fame", the "Wall of Frames" and the Texas Tournament Trophy Room.
