Beware the cart girl

Decent golf course ruined by the shady lady on the golf cart. She guilted us into buying warm ham sandwiches and then gave herself a bigger tip on the credit card without authorization. Sandwiches ended up being $15 each. Check your transactions if you buy anything from her.

Good layout, fair conditions

Enjoyed the layout of the course. Several dog-leg holes, was glad I played with twosome that was familiar.

The greens were thin on grass in areas and fairly fast.

A beautiful afternoon!

Good day. Good fun on a great course. Always look forward to coming to Colony West champ course. A testing, varied and interesting layout leads you to some demanding greens. Be prepared for the quickness and the subtle breaks. If you've never been, give it a try.

Nice and easy. Low quality for the price

Too expensive for the poor quality of the fairways. We had a nice time. Greens were awesome. Tough for the chipping. First time in 30 years of playing we had children playing in a bunker refusing to leave the golf course.

Better a month ago

I played Colony about a month ago. The fairways were in great shape as were the greens. What a month makes with constant tee times and snowbirds. The greens were in rough shape and the grass was matted down with occassional bare spots. Fairways have tons of divots in them.
