About
Surrounded by 200 acres of carefully preserved wetlands, the Groves Golf & Country Club offers championship golf in a spectacular setting. It sits conveniently just 20 minutes north of Tampa in Land O Lakes. Maintaining the natural beauty of the landscape was a top priority when designing the golf course, which is why the layout manages to seamlessly blend into the surroundings. The course, which measures 4,026 yards, offers all of the challenging qualities of a championship-length course but can be played in four hours or less. The player-friendly golf course offers something for all skill levels whether you are a scratch golfer looking for a quick round, or a beginner looking for some challenging practice. In addition to the course, The Groves also boasts a unique aqua driving range as well as putting and chipping greens.

Greens
Would have given an Excellent on course conditions but some of the Greens were not back to normal after the Excellent work they have done on the course.
I am sure in a week or two they will be back to Excellent.
Love this course
Great short course.
Great to work on iron play. I don't take my driver out of the bag.
Hi, we appreciate you taking the time to review the course and rate us. Thank you for the 4 stars! We aim for a 5-star experience, so we always welcome feedback for improvement. Thank you for playing The Groves Golf and Country Club.
Aerification
Overall the course was great they are aerating the course right now the fairways are fine but the greens are a little bumpy had the ball bounce off line a couple of times but the rates are discounted for it
Thank you for your 5-star rating and review! We will pass along your positive experience to our team at The Groves Golf and Country Club. We look forward to seeing you again soon.
What a great course!
They truly care about the course...actual fairways..nice greens and an absolutely awesome staff.. super value for the money as well..
Wow! We are so happy you enjoyed your round, u073427487! We look forward to seeing you again soon at The Groves Golf and Country Club.
Great little track
This little course runs you up through your entire bag and challenges the driver, long woods, long irons, mid and short irons. The greens are always great and the bunkers are strategically placed. A great course to work on your game and see how low you can go. Many challenges give you high risk and high reward or you can play placement golf. Great track to practice shotmaking on.
Hello, thank you for visiting us at The Groves Golf and Country Club. We appreciate your 4-star rating and review. We hope you join us for another round soon.
Quality Golf
Excellent course especially for Seniors. Being 82 years of age & having played most of those years, I appreciate quality designs. The course & greens are in immaculate condition, as are the sand traps.
At par 66 & 4019 Blue Tees, layout challenges all aspects of your game. It is not a power player course rather an excellent course management challenge for Senior or higher handicap players, allowing them to have fun.
Thank you for your kind words! We hope to see you again at the course very soon for another 5-star experience. Thanks for choosing The Groves Golf and Country Club.
review
The Groves while short ( 4000 yds from the tips ) is still a challenge to the average golfer. The course itself is always in great condition, nice firm, fast greens, well manicured fairways and not too much water and sand to catch an errand shot. It's always a good test, especially with the shorter clubs.....However, some holes, like #4 and #18, both very short par 5's, require precise shots to reach the greens in regulation. The staff is always friendly and accommodating.....looking forward to returning again some day soon.

Great Course
I moved to the area some time ago and have played here from time to time. Great staff and course. Conditions are always great and never an issue for pace of play. Great scenery ok handful of holes and even with it being a shorter course (par 67), still has its challenges and makes for a fun great round of golf.

Good layout - slow greens

Another good outing
Played the Groves again this Wednesday. The course is in great shape. The fairways and greens are very good. Very few folks braved the Florida heat so pace of play was excellent. Can’t wait to go back.
