Surrounded by 200 acres of carefully preserved wetlands, the Groves Golf & Country Club offers championship golf in a spectacular setting.

In addition to the course, The Groves also boasts a unique aqua driving range as well as putting and chipping greens.

Good little trek

This is a nice course with some beautiful landscapes of swamps/lakes. The course is pretty short but pretty challenging with doglegs and tough greens. Perfect course to practice irons and some reachable par 4s & 5s.

This short course is a beauty. The greens cannot be more perfect. We played right after thunderstorms and it drained so fast and the course conditions were perfect.

Nice short course

For a par 66 this plays longer. Fairways are narrow so this is a great course to practice your short game. I would recommend this to anyone wanting a challenge.

Restaurant was under remodeling so I cannot comment on that however in the past is was just fine.

I also want to include this course very much needs your help to maintain the course so we can all enjoy a great round of golf. Please repair any damage on the greens and in the fairway. I was sad to see many ball marks on the greens no one cared to fix. Let’s all do our part. The last round I played I slowed play because some one forgot to do their part. Thanks

Awesome

I was amazed by how friendly and accommodating everyone was. The golf carts were amazing, the course was gorgeous. I felt as if i was in the most expensive course. The day was perfect! My friend and I was asked if we minded if a single player could join us, it was nice that we were asked and introduced. My friend and I plan to go back again this week. You have the option to play 9 or 18 holes, no extra cost for the luxury golf carts, and they are exceptional. This course is a gem in Pasco County and I am so thankful to have been introduced to it.

All pisitive

Starting with check in all staff was friendly, courteous and helpful.

Greens were in great condition. Fairways had grass instead of big dirt patches..

Short course, but not a easy course.

Golf carts were almost new. Very comfortable seats

Short course but fun. The conditions were excellent. This is a great place for all skill levels. The hot deal price was as good as it gets. It has just a couple of goofy holes, other than that it was perfect

The Groves, while less than 4000 yds from the tips, is no pushover......I usually loose several balls as the fairways can be a bit tight in some areas......the highlight of my round was making par on the two par 5's which is very rare for me......my advice......bring plenty of balls and leave the driver in the bag......
