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

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.

Pasco County Gem - NEVER disappoints....

Pace of play gets a ding for a 2 hour back 9 after playing the front in 1:30....I will say the course continues to be in GREAT shape! Fairways are pretty plush, greens roll nicely. The only thing I could ever complain about is sometimes pace of play. Otherwise with GPS carts this course is a STEAL/BARGAIN/ALL TIME top 5 for me. Yes it's an executive, with 2 par 5's (only because of the sharp doglegs and the fact you need to really play position here...meaning have to know your carry distances on your clubs), but It is a solid challenge! Yet to break 70 on this par 66...

Lovin the Groves

Down here for some time off and played a couple of times over the last 2 weeks. Really like the course and even more the people. Restaurants has fast and friendly service. Food was very good.

Course all kept and really a good length. Good to work on irons and as few driver holes also.

NEVER disppoints!

The Groves continues to be a top course that I enjoy playing! As a shorter hitter, I enjoy even from the tips being able to play less than driver! The greens and fairways are in tip top shape. The GPS carts are top notch. It's an executive course, but If you have not played here you are missing out!
