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 in 2003 – one of just four awarded in
Texas.
