Rating 72.0

Designed by Lloyd Clifton, Westchase winds through acres of lakes, conservation areas and forest. It offers manicured greens surrounded by natural wetlands, wooden bridges and bulkheads. With its 9,500 sq. ft. clubhouse, full-service dining room, and fully stocked pro shop, Westchase offers a country club atmosphere along with first-class service. The golf club has established itself as one of Tampa Bay's best upscale golf facilities. The front nine meander through an impressive pine forest. The back nine -- which is demanding on the tee shot -- features lakes, wetlands and cypress. Strategically placed bunkers, more sparkling lakes and stands of cypress, oak, palmetto and pine frame the fairways and greens. Signature Hole No. 3, at 212 yards from the back tee, is all you can handle -- It's a Par 3 all-carry over water from the back tee!

Bad Sportsmanship, lack of attention to details

An entitled D%$# picked up my ball, because it was hit too close to them by accident. Then, the cart girl takes my Visa to the club house, which they closed at 6pm with many groups still on course......Brutal!!!!

Great Way to End a Short Golf Trip

Played on a Sunday morning before catching a late afternoon flight home. Spent a three day weekend in the Tampa Area with Westchase being my third of three courses played. My group was beat down quite frankly after the previous two days with each round pushing 5 hours. We came into Sunday expecting more of the same, but could not have been more pleasantly surprised. This is not a typo; we played in just over three hours teeing off at 10am. Thank you Westchase for saving the weekend! We all played so much better at the quicker pace and were able to truly enjoy ourselves; imagine that paying for a round of golf. Same couldn’t be said for two other “high profile” public access courses we played that Friday and Saturday.

Best course I have played in the area

I was in the area for 14 days. I played 7 different courses with green fees from $25 to $90. Sorry I found this one the day before I left. I like the layout, the facilities and the staff. The greens were FIRM & fast but were a bit bumpy. I expect they will be awesome in the next few weeks. I will definitely play this course again when I am back.

Needs help

For the $ you would expect more. Tee boxes were beat up. Water in sand traps…not because of rain, and none raked on front nine. Over watered in areas creating muddy lies. Course layout is fair, although too many holes where you had to lay up for my liking. Greens were in good shape and rolled consistently at a 10. Driving range was the type you hit into the water with no markers.

Not my favorite track

Some of the holes were a bit quirky and not well designed. Course conditions were definitely average, with greens that were rock hard and had very low grass coverage on them, it was almost as if the course skipped the winter overseeding process, although the greens did roll just fine and weren't overly slow. Very narrow off the tee so bring lots of golf balls.

Fun round but tough for it's slope rating

We enjoyed the course, but pace was slow. Greens were rolling nicely, and condition were good. Range with floating golf balls is a novelty but balls feel weird. Definitely worth a try
