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!

Not worth the $$ they are asking...

At $75 fee, this course is in bad condition. All greens are slow and very grainy. Al least half have bad spots on them including large bald areas filed in with sand. Fairways seemed OK.

Their setup function for senior tees leaves a lot of room for improvement. Setting them on the same tees as the women, many at the exact same spot, shows they don't really care to take the time to set the course up in its best light.

I was told they were under their second new set off owns in the past 2-3 years. It shows. Hopefully the new owners will make this course better in the near future....

Conditions are ok.

Played here for first time. A very poor value as conditions are fair with bare spots on greens and fairways. Very narrow course . Not very forgiving. For the money there are better courses.

NWIE..

Not What I Expected. Looking at the reviews on line and reading the course bio I expected fast well manicured greens and fairways. That was not the case especially on the front 9. Also no GPS which I read they had. The back 9 was better than front. The course layout isn't bad just need to maintain the greens tee boxes and fairways. The price I felt was too much for course coniditions.Or maybe I need to lower my expectations of Florida golf courses. Should have driven to Myrtle Beach..

Construction

Greens were under repair on about half the holes, this was during a tournament so affected scores. A very nice layout of holes which keeps course competitive. Priced higher than other local courses in area and not offered on Golfnow often. While fun to play, overpriced with so many other courses in great shape and cheaper.

Course layout was very nice with plenty of water throughout. The greens had burnt spots, but overall they were rolling good. Definitely worth playing for the cost.

Great course. Greens were not cut

A great layout, and very challanging. Greens had been plugged 10 days ago, but had not been cut making putting very difficult.

Will go back as the vlaue was super. Rest of course in top shape.

Not good

Greens are extremely poor. Have crabgrass all over them. Course is wet whether it has rained or not and generally in bad shape. The only thing good about it is its near Tampa and easy to get to. Wouldn't recommend.

Above average in all aspects. Nice, varied layout, well kept, though not pristine, challenging, but fair course. Won't kill your wallet. Definitely worth playing.
