MetroWest Golf Club
About
This Robert Trent Jones Sr. design is one of the area’s most venerable venues. The fluid beauty of MetroWest provides for a challenging but playable experience. Wide rolling fairways give all levels of players the opportunity to find the short grass, and the four sets of tees working from 7,051 yards down to the 5,325-yard forward tees make hitting greens in regulation a reasonable endeavor. No push over, though, bunkers seem to anchor every corner on every dogleg and elevation changes of up to 100 feet in some circumstances tug back in the course’s favor.

Great layout but poor conditions
Was looking forward to playing this course for the first time but the majority of the course was riddled with weeds including tee boxes abs fairways. The greens were in great shape at least. Service at course was hit or miss. In morning couldn’t get anyone to provide food/beverage service but at turn the two new employees there for the day were fantastic. Overall a great track that needs a lot of attention to the grounds.
Improving
The course is now playable. Greens are all good. Fairways are fair and improving. They finally brought the price down to the value of the course.
I will bring my group to play again later this month.
Good times
Course was good greens were fast , but some fairways needed a lil work. But overall good
Course in dire need of repair
The course was in horrible condition. Bare spots, diseased burned out grass , uneven terrain, and aesthetically displeasing. No water available on the course. When asked …. We don’t do that since COVID. The rate was average to play but offers no Junior rate. For a course in this condition, juniors should be free or severely discounted.
Wasn’t expecting this - no members bounce
I was pleasantly surprised at the condition of this course. Was really well taken care of. If there was anything to complain about it was 2 things.
1) car paths could use some serious work throughout but this isn’t a big deal.
2) these GREENS are MASSIVE and the pin placement the day I played was insane. The greens ran like it was a PGA tour excellent but man they were tough. Was a min 2-3 put day for almost all holes. Hard to complain about great greens but this course was pleasantly surprising and I’ll be back.
Fair course value if you don’t expect too much
All staff great, outside services, “pro shop”( can you call it that?) and F&B- friendly and service oriented
Greens and most tees in good shape, bunkers too
Fairways so so- lots of invasive weeds
Pin placement signage not updated when I played. On course restrooms really bad. No water on course, no bev Cart on a busy day- it’s apparent management is running on fumes.
A starter would pay for itself in terms of managing tee shoot and pace of play. Too many singles and doubles allowed out on a busy morning
Fair price
Nice Course, fairways and tees need work
Overall the pace of play was great. Played with three gentlemen that guided me around the course. Greens and traps were very good. Course needs to work on the tees and fairways.
Avg course needs some work
Dry fairways, tee boxes terrible. Needs some work but got $60. Was ok. Club rental costs more than round. Beer girl not to pleasant and only 1 cart. Only saw her on 9 and 16. Bring a cooler
Just when I thought it was safe to go back in the water
I thought metrowest was trending in the right direction: greens were consistently in good shape, bunkers had been renovated and the layout was always terrific.
BUT- 1/2 the game is played tee to green. And the fairways have gone from bad to improving to awful. It’s hard to find a good lie in the middle of the fairway even if you roll the ball. The rough often provides a better lie than a ball in the center of the fairway. There are weeds everywhere, a quick look at the range is a harbinger of what’s to come.
The only reasons to play here are the greens and the price (provided it’s right).
I’ll give metrowest another try in a few months when the reviews reflect the fairways reward a good tee shot and rolling the ball is no longer required.
Completion
Played there last year as a solo and once again this time. Last year people let me through but the group in front of me never offered to let me go through. The fairways continue to need some work as I found them shaggy and weedy once again. However, the greens are awesome. A little slow in places but extremely true. The staff was great. I would definitely play it again but would love to see them spruce up the fairways and ponds.
Decent course.
No GPS on carts.
Didn’t see any yardage markers on fairways.
Getting better
Had to be fair with rating because this course is making positive progress from just a few years ago but has a lot of work to do. Greens and bunkers are new and are very nice. Fairways were very iffy and they even tell you that. Is $49 steep compared to the conditions of other courses? Probably, but they are re-investing their money to continue improving and that I'll support. Staff super friendly and pace was really good. Keep up the good work.
Condition
The only thing that could be improved is the fairways I understand with the rainy season especially on certain holes is difficult but overall great course
Metro!
The course was not in the best shape but the layout is excellent. The staff is the outstanding! One of the best I’ve ever seen. Food is excellent. The service is enough for me to return.
