Texas resort undergoing course renovations

The Tapatio Springs Hill Country Resort & Spa in Boerne, Texas, has contracted with Tripp Davis and Associates to prepare a master plan for renovation and redesign of its 18 hole golf course. First opened in 1983, the Tapatio Springs Resort is regarded as one of the best resorts in Texas and has been a winter haven for golfers from across the U.S. and Canada.

“Tapatio Springs is in the Texas Hill Country just outside San Antonio and it’s a beautiful property with great rolling terrain, huge old live oaks, and great vistas,” Davis said.  “The golf course was originally well-routed so there is a good foundation for us to work with in terms of updating the course.  While our focus will be to make the course more playable, our intent also is to provide an enjoyable golf experience for resort guests and local members.” 

Work undertaken by Tripp Davis will include enhancing the existing driving range, enlarging tee boxes, reshaping greenside bunkers and leveling off some fairways for improved irrigation. Davis and his team have already started the work and should complete the driving range redesign and renovation and redesign of one-third of the tees and a quarter of the bunkers by the end of April.
