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.

Definitely Fun

The fairways have been discussed in a few posts and many of the a fine but several need help. This course has hills and that makes growing grass a challenge on some of the holes. The greens are excellent. The bunkers are excellent. If you enjoy a truly wide open layout with a shot at the greens from just about everywhere your tee shot lands then this is a great course.

If a golf course was a receding hairline

Mostly dirt fairways, a few exceptions. Greens were okay. The starter was very worried that our cart parked off the path in the shade was the reason for the courses conditions. The same trees have been down since last summer and the “conditions” are diseased grass and soil, not cart wear. The range is always the same, who knows where to aim or what the distance is. Also, there’s literally no yardage markers in the fairways, no signs or hole designations, any GPS system won’t recognize which hole you’re in because it constantly changes, but the squirrels were nice and they had ketchup for the burgers.

Regaining Premier Status

Played this course many times over the past year and it continues to improve. A year ago the course had many grounds keepers making many necessary repairs to the course and that work has really paid off. With the exceptions of two holes the fairways are in very good condition and the greens are very well maintained. If you enjoy a wide open layout with some elevation changes, that is uncommon in central Florida, this is your course. With a little more attention especially to the driving range, this will again be a top course to play in Orlando.

Hard to understand how one review is 5 stars, wonderful course and two days before the review is POOR???? I use to play here all the time but they got way over priced for us local players. Really hope you get the course back in great condition, like it use to be 10 yrs ago.

Wet weather
Used cart

The greens were the best that they have been in years, the fairways not so much. It was almost hard to tell where the fairways and rough started and ended. With the rainy season starting up and the lack of grass in the fairways erosion is going to be an issue and already was on several holes. The greens had been punched but not top dressed with sand so putting was a little uneven but manageable. I guess that's why the rate at 11 am was so low

The Sandlot

Such a solid chunk of land to put some tee ball fields in; but definitely not for golfers. Maybe some developers will buy it up and place more unnecessary and overpriced condos on it

Terrible course conditions, terrible equipment

This is the first and last time I'll ever play Metrowest. The tee boxes, fairways and greens were atrocious. We had two golf carts die on us during our round and it took forever to get replacements. There was no ranger and the pace of play was ridiculous. It took over 5 hours to play one round. Never again, no way.

Coarse was decent. Had just been aerated, which I was informed of when booking. Holes are not clearly marked but the starter gave us the breakdown before we teed off. Overall a nice property,

Course condition

I have been playing this course for over year now and have never had this bad an experience.

The fairway on the first hole was torn up. I'm sure it was for course maintenance but was still playable.

Too much sand on all the greens making it impossible to put straight shots. Even 2 and 3 ft puts would veer off due to the sand. Not a pleasant experience.
