About

Holes 18
Type Public
Par 72
Length 6653 yards
Slope 124
Rating 71.0

The scenic ranchlands west of Fort Worth are full of rugged canyons, native wildflowers, and impressive elevation changes, all of which are incorporated into Canyon West’s design. Located atop Parker County’s highest summit, this 1997 18-holer incorporates all of those North Texas Hill Country features and more into its design. Waterfalls, miles of streams, exposed rocks, prairie grasses, wildflowers, and loads of oak, pecan, elm, and mesquite trees highlight the landscape.

Elevated tees offer views of the countryside. In addition to the scenery, golfers are welcomed by generous fairways that make this a fairly user-friendly course, especially given its reasonable yardage of 6,653 from the tips and the fact that water comes into play on only about half of the holes.

Other notes: During the week, the course offers seniors a two-for-one green fee. Walking is not allowed.

Getting there : From Ft. Worth, go west on I-20 and take exit 403. Cross left over the freeway and then make a quick right onto the service road. The entrance is 2.5 miles down the road.

Great course!

Great course! Just no marshal to direct things. Some high schoolers jumped in front of us on #4 and we were held up by them the whole round.

Course overall

First I have been playing here for years. Through a few owner/management changes and not like it used to be. Used to be welcomed by staff, now its what is your tee time, good luck out there. Just not as friendly as it once was. The driving range, mats only. Mats are fine with me to warm up, BUT they are torn up and in need of being replaced. The course is improving and the greens are getting better, and being expanded, great move! Over all 7/10 right now. Wife and I were engaged on the course #5 green.

Really great day with the course in excellent conditions. All greens is pretty good shape with only a few bare spots. Tees and fairways in pretty good shape as well. Played as a single so zipped around in 3 hrs and played pretty darn well. Excellent day overall!!

Best Round of the Year

Played here the year the course opened. So great to come back and see how it’s matured. I have been coming out to the weatherford area for the last few weeks taking on Sugar Tree and Split Rail. Enjoyed them all but Canyon West takes the cake for me. Plays pretty short from the whites but still lots of challenges. Most memorable the par 5 4th, the elevated tee #8 WOW, par 5 #9 begs you to crush a drive, #10 WTH, finally the par 5 #18 makes me want to come back just to play it again. This will definitely be a place to shoot your low round for the year, unless the site of tee markers automatically triggers “get out the driver” :)

There were a group of 6 and a group of 5 playing in front of us and it was 99 degrees 1 igloo cooler of water and no cart girl. Absolutely ridiculou!

Ithe course is ran by people who have no idea what they’re doing. This is sad because I remember when this was possibly one of the best public courses to play in the metroplex. It has definitely gone downhill in a hurry. To bad for the residents in the neighborhood because this definitely affect their over home equity value. If I lived in the neighborhood I would definitely be forming a HOA committee protecting my asset. Sad ! You wanted my opinion and you got it. Just don’t delete it!

Overall

The course is in pretty good shape. Some of the tee boxes are hard, fairways are pretty good, and the greens have minor problems.

Better bring something drink there are only two water jugs on the whole course and no beverage cart. If you need a marshal you want find one. We get there early to get warmed up they wouldn’t till just before our tee time. There was over a thirty minute gap between the group in front of us but we had to wait till our tee time before we could start. The man in the pro shop was on an ego trip.

Better than expected

We hadn't played this course in over a year and were glad things had improved so much.

With more rain an TLC of the greens I expect it to be in top shape for our next outing. Oh, and those Bratwurst, wow!

Lovely course!

First time here and really enjoyed it. Course layout is excellent. Very fair course and no gimmicks. The greens were sanded so I can’t really comment on their condition but the course was in great shape. Play was fast on front 9 but slowed up quite a bit on back 9. Never saw a marshal or a drink cart. Will definitely be back!

Great course, Great staff

Though I wish it was a little more of a “hidden gem” this is a great course and the staff is always amazing. The only draw back is it is probably the busiest course in the area.
