About
Countryway Golf Club is an executive golf course that is known for its extremely affordable rates. Situated in the heart of Westchase, it is considered one of the best values in Tampa Bay. The layout consists of eleven par-3 holes and seven par 4s. The golf course is challenging enough for more advanced golfers but it is still player-friendly enough for beginners to enjoy. The rolling terrain provides undulations in both the greens and fairways. The hills also make for some challenging putts. There is no shortage of water at Countryway Golf Club with hazards coming into play on 14 holes. There are also bunkers strategically placed throughout.

Tight Greens and lay up shot
Be prepared for the tight greens and lay up shots. The greens are small and tight. The greens are a bit worn as previous players are not mindful of fixing divots. The greens do tend to play a bit slower than use to playing. In the event that you lay up in the roughs you should have your sights on playing your shots low to avoid the branch over hanging while battling the rough grass. Overall enjoyable experience for the money.
Call Ahead Regarding Tee Time
2:20 tee time. Sat in line behind 3 foursomes for nearly an hour before teeing off. Starter said they got a rush of players but I thought that’s why you make a tee time. Same thing at hole 2 and on. Played 9 holes. Paid for 18. Hoping an off day given holiday weekend. Never had this happen before.
Greens and fairway immaculate
I golf all around Tampa st Pete area, and these greens and fairways were super nice. Little overbooked and slow pace but overall good day
Slow
Horrible pace of play. We were the last tee time out due to a tournament starting and it took us nearly 4 hours on an executive course. The ranger had the nerve to yell at us for hitting two balls when we were waiting 10+ mins each hole for the groups ahead of us. Awful.
Great budget course
Surprise nice big golf course tucked in the middle of westchase. I was surprised to only pay 20 dollars to play. Course has a nice layout. Some challenging but some shorter holes as well. For the quality of the golf course, you easily would pay 40 plus to play.
The only minor observations, you will most likely pair up with someone you don’t know to play as a group of 3 if you are going solo or 2 people. The pavement to drive on is narrow and concrete can use some repair.
Work in progress
A lot is being done n the course is looking much better I only wish more people would repair their ballmarks on the greens I find myself repairing others ballmarks. Management is doing a good job on the fairways. Maybe 90 degree rule would help keep in good shape.
Pace of play is too slow
4.5 hours for an executive par 3 course is way too slow. Tee times are too tight for an enjoyable round. You need a small bucket of balls between shots to stay loose. Greens were thicker than most fairways. They should blow it up and make it a regulation course with 12 holes. They have a nice layout.
Great value.
Great skills course
Excellent for all levels.
Lots of challenge if u play from blue tees
Very laid back environment
Makes you think!
Golf cart paths need better markings and repair
Ponds could use cleaning out
Good value
Course has a nice layout
Rough wasn’t cut and a few
temporary tee boxes
But still a good value
