Westchase Golf Club
About
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!

Challenging
One of the better courses in this area. Nice tee boxes and fairways. Greens in good shape, running a bit fast for my game.
So very difficult holes as fairways are narrow on most holes. Water on most holes.
Back nine takes you away from the homes and into a beautiful natural forest.
Would like to play there again to get a better feel for the course.
Nice course with great staff
I live about 1 mile from the course. I have played many times and attended numerous golf training events. So, maybe I am bias. I love the layout of the course and that it runs through natural habitat. The course is challenging, but fair. The pro shop staff, the golf pros, the people who run the bar and restaurant area, are just great people. I will go back again and again
Nice course in food condition
Course was in good condition. Staff was friendly. Place of play very good as they send out people only every 10 minutes.
Recommend this course.
Tested Jewel
There's golf courses all over the city that are in good shape or a real test. But there are very few that are both. As advertised—shot makers course, in great condition every time, with unique greens that you have to prepare for. You succeed or fail with your ability to play good shots. I love coming here. The staff is friendly and the burgers are tasty!
review
Beautiful course, but a bit long and challenging for this high handicapper. .....lots of water, and sand hazards and areas that need a high long accurate second ( or third ) shot into most greens.......The greens are fast and not too undulating ....nice wide ( on most holes ) fairways with high grass off the fairways if you spray your shots..........
Excellent course, great shape,
Course was in great condition. Nice layout, very challenging. Greens were pretty fast.
Shaky Greens
Great course greens were shaky at best fairways were in great shape
Why?
I went to play 4 days after hurricane Ian crossed Florida. The course was in poor shape, all the fairways and roughs needed mowing and weeding I get it. You just had a storm that crippled some of the state and the course was not in condition to tolerate mowing and care. Why charge full rate $74? It’s not right and as a member I was somewhat embarrassed
Worth playing
Have been trying different courses in the Tampa area. Staff is super nice and helpful. Tee boxes were good condition. Fairways were ok in general. Greens didn’t hold a ball but putted well. Overall I’d recommend Westchase.
Great greens
Course was soaked, cart part only, fairways haven’t been mowed in days long patches of grass middle of fairways. Greens were firm and true.
Beautiful but HARD
Before I chose to play here, I checked out some reviews and saw that the course was on the more difficult scale but I was up to the challenge. The course delivered completely. The fairways were in great shape, green recently aerated but still rolled true, but the bunkers were sadly hard from rain the previous day so that was a downfall. The range is quite small, however it is an aqua-range which was a cool touch. The greens are quick, but predictable to an extent. Be prepared to be challenged by this course and do yourself a favor by using a GPS app like 18Birdies so you can know where to miss. Overall very pleased with the course and will be back again, just next time not the first time playing with new irons.
Nice course
Greens have a decent amount of unfixed divots which makes for some aggravating putting. Other than that the course is in pretty good shape
Great course
Westchase is a great course. The water and blind holes make it a fun challenge balanced by most holes you can hit in regulation.
