MetroWest Golf Club

haven't played here in 15+ years, and heard it had gone downhill in that time. Compared to most of the other courses out there right now, it was in nice shape. Yes, there were some dead spots on the fairways and teeboxes, but not a big deal. Most of it was just fine. Greens a little bumpy since it appeared to have been aerated a couple weeks back. Layout and views are awesome. For $45, hard to beat for a course that's not far away. We'll play again and again at this rate and this condition.

I’ve played this course for over 30 years off and on, and the course layout is great. Condition is probably better than average these days, and improvements are under way. Great value for the money.

My review? I give it a solid Meh. Not in great shape. For the $$ I would like better conditions.

The course is a nice layout, but needs a lot of work to bring it back to where it can be. Facilities have good bones and are in terrible disrepair. I used to play this course in the mid-eighties and early nineties and it was awesome, well maintained and a premier facility. Ready for a new Owner and investment.

Paid for holes 1-18, after we completed the first 9 the golf ranger told us we had two options. 1. Wait 45 minutes at the club house for the groups behind us to pass us or 2. Repeat the front 9.

I said no, we paid for holes 1-18 and I want to play the back 9. I told the ranger I’ll skip a hole but not repeating front 9. He said no and those were our only options.

I get that we’re novice and we’re reasonable with letting people play ahead of us, but to be completely halted was completely ridiculous.

Title says it all.

This course is normally $20-45, yet they’re charging $60 (which doesn’t come with range balls) and it’s an absolute cow pasture. Punched greens they don’t tell you about, highly overgrown greens as well, tee boxes are a nightmare with sand and holes everywhere. Fairways have seen much better days, and the rough is overgrown.

No water on the course, but of course you can buy some!

Starter is like 90yrs old and not a nice person.

Why would I come back?

I have played this course many times and really enjoy it. When I booked I knew that the greens had recently been aerated however they were in reasonable condition without any bare spots. I read a few reviews that complained about the fairways and tee boxes being worn and while they weren’t perfect the fairways were on good condition. This is a fun and challenging course and if you haven’t played it you should give it a try.

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

Played on September 2, after course aeration. Great layout and in good condition even with the greens in recovery.

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.
