The Quarry Golf Club


About this course
The Quarry Golf Club stands as a testament to imaginative repurposing, carved from the remnants of a 100-year-old cement plant north of downtown San Antonio. Pete Dye ingeniously integrated the industrial artifacts and dramatic limestone cliffs into the course design, creating a visually striking and strategically challenging playing field that opened in 1993. The front nine winds through a more traditional, tree-lined landscape. However, the course dramatically transforms on the back nine, plunging into the heart of the old quarry. This section features tight fairways, imposing rock walls that loom over tee boxes and greens, and the constant reminder of the site’s unique past. A course that does not favor any specific style but rewards course management. Pete Dye’s son, Perry, has been involved in renovations over the years to sustain its playability and charm. While not a mainstay on professional tour circuits, The Quarry has hosted various regional and amateur events, cementing its place as a respected and popular golfing destination in central Texas. Members appreciate the club for its challenging layout, distinctive scenery, and the camaraderie found amidst the echoes of industrial history.

Getting there
The Quarry Golf Club is most readily accessed via San Antonio International Airport (SAT), situated roughly twenty minutes north of the property, or through the closer San Antonio-Stinson Municipal Airport for those arriving by private aircraft. From SAT, the drive south into the city's northern suburbs unfolds across the Texas Hill Country landscape, a gentle transition from interstate commerce into the quieter residential corridors that frame this distinctive urban golf destination. The final miles wind through the carefully preserved limestone quarry terrain that gives the club its name and character, arriving at a property where excavated bluffs and native Texas flora create an arresting sense of arrival - a landscape carved by geology rather than convention, setting The Quarry apart from the rolling fairways of more traditional courses.
