A hilltop
retreat that
combines the
best of golf and the best of luxury. With six pools, health club and
spa
services, tennis courts, unique dining options, a kids club, three hot
tubs, flexible and spacious meeting space, and golf options second to
none,
rest assured there’s something for everyone in your group.

The resort's two championship 18-hole courses were
designed to challenge your skill from tee to green. Each course offers
some of the most scenic vistas in the Texas Hill Country. The Resort
Course at La Cantera, a PGA Tour stop for 15 years was designed by
noted golf course architect Jay Morrish and PGA Tour professional Tom
Weiskopf. Our second championship course, built in 2001, The
Palmer Course at La Cantera was designed by the legendary Arnold
Palmer. This 6,926-yard, par 71 masterpiece winds through the Texas
Hill Country and offers the ultimate test of ability for even the most
skilled player.
The
Resort Course
Many golf courses could be described as
"jaw-droppingly beautiful." But when The Resort Course
opened in 1995, its beauty was so highly regarded that it lured the
historic Texas Open-one of the PGA Tour's oldest stops-to its greens
that very same year. Designed by noted golf course architect Jay
Morrish and PGA Tour professional Tom Weiskopf, The Resort Course at La
Cantera snakes through the Texas Hill Country, offering breathtaking
views, the most notable being a sheer 80-foot drop from the 7th tee to
the fairway. The par-72 course was quickly named one of the Top 10
public access golf courses in the United States by Golf Magazine and
one of the best new courses by Golf Digest.
The
Palmer Course
The name says it all: The Palmer Course
was designed by the legendary Arnold Palmer and the Palmer Course
Design Company. And it certainly doesn't disappoint. Opened in March
2001, the course, together with The Resort Course at La Cantera, are
the first public courses in South Texas to provide 36 holes of
championship golf designed by golfing legends. Pristinely perched on
225 acres, The Palmer Course offers 18 holes on 6,926 yards of
golfing bliss, par 71.
Given the spectacular scenery and diverse Hill
Country wildlife, it may be hard to keep your eye on the ball. Among
its signature holes is the par 3 No. 4, boasting dramatic waterfalls
along the entire front edge of the green and connected to the fairway
by the Winnie Palmer Memorial Bridge, a tribute to Palmer's late wife.
Want to map out your strategy for each hole? No problem. All carts are
equipped with a state-of-the-art ProLink GPS system. Arnie himself
played a six-hole exhibition on the course during the grand opening and
unabashedly exclaimed, "The Palmer Course at La Cantera is
one-of-a-kind and a first-class golfing experience."
Equally impressive are the course facilities. The
crown jewel is the 15,300 sq. ft. clubhouse overlooking the 18th green.
Its grandeur extends the resort's Texas Colonial theme, a grand dame
presiding over all festivities. Its many architectural accolades
include being named the Best New Daily Fee Clubhouse in the U.S. by
Crittenden Golf Inc. in its December 2001 issue. Even the pro shop is
decorated. It was named one of America's 100 Best Golf Shops by Golf
World Business Magazine in 2005.
The
seventh hole on The Resort Course provides one of the most remarkable scenes in all of golf.
The tee shot on this 316-yard par four drops 80 feet down to the
fairway,
set in the bottom of an old limestone quarry. However, your eyes seem
glued
to what sits to the left of the hole: The Fiesta Texas Amusement Park,
complete with "The Rattler," a huge wooden roller coaster directly on
the
other side of a fence from the green. Every 40 seconds or so, your
concentration
is interrupted by the shrieks of yet another group of thrill seekers as
they cascade down the coaster's initial drop.
This resort is the recipient
of numerous honors and awards including:
* Conde
Nast Traveler, Gold List of “The Worlds Best Places to Stay”
* AAA
Four Diamond Award Resort

La
Cantera has hosted the PGA Tour's Texas Open since
1995 and before it was moved to the new TPC San Antonio Club in 2009.
Located
on
the north side of town, this thrill-a-minute design by Tom Weiskopf
and Jay Morrish has made quite a bit of noise since its debut.
It has ranked a Golf Magazine "Top 10 You Can Play" pick.
The 7,001-yard
layout is spread
over three hilltops, serving up views of the surrounding terrain. Some
holes seem like a game of "can-you-top-this," with dramatic elevation
changes,
carries over ravines, and risk-reward opportunities. But La Cantera
pulls
this off without being gimmicky because it's the roller-coaster
property,
not the design, that causes the drama.
Speaking of
roller coasters, the
seventh hole provides one of the most remarkable scenes in all of golf.
The tee shot on this 316-yard par four drops 80 feet down to the
fairway,
set in the bottom of an old limestone quarry. However, your eyes seem
glued
to what sits to the left of the hole: The Fiesta Texas Amusement Park,
complete with "The Rattler," a huge wooden roller coaster directly on
the
other side of a fence from the green. Every 40 seconds or so, your
concentration
is interrupted by the shrieks of yet another group of thrill seekers as
they cascade down the coaster's initial drop.

The Palmer Course
at La Cantera opened in March 2001 and offers visitors to The
Westin
La Cantera Resort a second 18-hole course, designed by Arnold Palmer
and
the Palmer Course Design Co. The course complements the existing Resort
Course at La Cantera, and together the public daily fee courses are the
first in South Texas to provide 36 holes of championship golf designed
by golfing legends.
Located on
225 acres, The Palmer
Course at La Cantera provides golf enthusiasts a par-71 course
measuring
approximately 7,000 yards. The course includes several signature holes,
including the par 3 No. 4 hole with dramatic waterfalls along the
entire
front of the green and a tribute to Palmer’s late wife: The Winnie
Palmer
Memorial Bridge.
Also
featured on all of the course’s
carts is the state-of-the-art ParView GPS system, which is key in
assisting
golfers as they map out their strategy for each hole.
Arnold
Palmer played a six-hole exhibition
on the course during the grand opening, and stated that, “The Palmer
Course
at La Cantera is one-of-a-kind and a first-class golfing experience.”
The Palmer
Course was named as one
of America’s 100 Best Golf Shops by Golf World Business magazine
– one of just four awarded in Texas.
