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.

Very Pleasant Course, Wide Open

Some courses I play seem claustrophobic, some holes very narrow and virtually no room for error. I hadn't played Metro West in 30 years and I'd forgotten how wide open it was. This is not to say it wasn't challenging, but it felt wide open compared to others. The only negative was that the greens had been aerated about 1 week earlier so putting was not a normal situation. Pace of play was excellent and there was a cart girl making the rounds, something I had not seen for some time at other courses. The fairways were good, though it appears that the grass has been infiltrated by weedy growth in some areas but there were no outstandingly bare areas as there are at some area courses. I found that the John Daly plaque that commemorated his driving the 18th green once upon a time has been removed due to vandalism, disappointing as I cannot envision anyone being so evil as to desecrate this course. The restaurant was a nice place to have lunch after the round and, all things considered, it was a pleasant way to spend Labor Day. I plan to play it again if I can find a Hot Deal. I recommend this course.

The greens were great but the front nine tee boxes were in rough condition and ran into really slow play on the 11th but the course was quite nice

Very welconing

From bag drop off to cart drop off, the staff was very friendly, courteous and eager to help.

Some of the fairways were a little brown/dry, but not unexpected considering the florida summer sun.

Overall a very good afternoon of golf and I look forward to playing the course again.

Top much money for too little quality

I booked and paid my greenfee online which was $45. When I got there they told me to pay another $50 because the greenfee online wasn’t everything. I had a great time playing with two guys I met but I feel so robbed by the club itself that I don’t recommand anyone to go there. The course itself wasn’t worth $95, only the greens where good.

I don’t know about you but I don’t enjoy the greens being mowed at…11am in the middle of a round?

Back from the dead

I loved MetroWest when I first played it. The layout is challenging, but not extreme. Then it fell on hard times.

Now the greens are excellent, tee boxes are not so good, and fairways are almost there. The occasional bad lie can be fixed with winter rules. One appearance factor that makes things look really bad when they're actually not is the presence of tall weeds scattered through the fairways and green surrounds. They are major league ugly, but in fact have little effect on play. A bit of spot roundup will make things look a lot better.

Fairway condition’s disappointing

Played Metrowest earlier in the year and was impressed by the vast improvement in course conditions. This visit was disappointing as most fairways have lots of dirt patches and weeds. The roughs are mostly weeds and tall grass. Tee boxes and greens were ok. I’ll wait to play again when I hear fairway conditions are getting better.

Needs a lot of work

The course does not have enough carts or doesn't manage them very well. We were 10 minutes late teeing off because they did not have a cart for us to use. Once we finally got our carts, we received 2 carts with the low battery light flashing. We had to drive back to the clubhouse and wait again for 2 more carts. Once we finally got underway, our round played smoothly and pace of play was really nice. The course itself was in tough shape. The greens were great though (that's the only highlight). A lot of the fairways are a mix of dirt and spotty grass. We just moved our balls to a spot with some grass on it. We payed $59 for a midday round, and this course simply shouldn't call for that rate with the state the course is in when compared to others in the area where you can pay the same or even less for a much higher tier experience.

If you can get this course on a discount, I'd take it, but if not, I'd play somewhere else.

No carts!!

Tried to play metrowest today. Had an 11:30 tee time and arrived early, by noon they still did not have any carts. There were 4 groups ahead of us waiting for carts, so we got a refund and left. Not a good look for the golf course! They said they had a lot of carts down for maintenence.
