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.

Check B4 booking tee time!!

Got there in time for our booking time. Paired with couple young men who were very polite and engaging. BUT.... B4 booking a tee time check with pro shop to ensure there is no "special" event (or holiday) that enables golfers to bring children (too young to play)! Our round took over 5 hours due to a trio of men ahead of us, two of whom had kids with them less than 4 years old!!

Great value

Nice layout, cute little western themed things all over the place. Fairways, greens, and tee boxes in nice shape, plenty of sand in the traps. Enough blind shots to give the first time player a bit of trouble, but nothing ridiculous or unfair.

Pace of play was nice, it was a Monday, so no beverage cart. Prices reasonable at the turn and cart equipped with a good sized cooler.

It's an hour drive from my house, if it were even a few minutes closer it would definitely be in my regular rotation.

Worth the drive

well worth the drive from Ft. Worth. I didn't think the course played too difficult. Most holes are pretty straight. But a few are broken leg left or right.

The tees are a little small for my liking. The fairways are wide to my liking. Greens and fairways were in great condition.

The scenery is really nice too. Water flows in the creek hazzards and there are a few waterfall and rock featurs on the course.

I ended on 18 with a pace off 42' putt. that felt good!

Overall I think anyone would be happy to play a round of golf here. I will be back.

Course is good

I’m a regular at Canyon West and enjoy playing this course. Fairways were as green as I’ve ever seen them. Greens are recovering from being punched with a few bouncy putts. Nice day with few people out due to the hot weather. Pro Shop is always courteous and helpful. Thanks Guys!!

Almost a great round

Let me start off by saying the pace of place was going great, until we get around to 14 and notice a cart with an older gentleman and 2 kids in it cut in front of us and start playing. Here is the kicker. I call the club house to get a marshal out and am told “ Yeah we know him. He lives on hole 15 and plays a few holes from time to time. Just go around and come back and play that hole later”. As a paying patron of the course I am let’s just say unhappy. Course puts home owner in front of paying customers not a great policy.

Great Course, Will Definitely be Back

The greens had just been aerated but were in really great shape. Fairways and Tee Boxes were taken care of nicely.

I did have a problem with the groups behind us. We were playing a scramble so we were moving really fast but the group behind us wasn't finishing putts and were pressing us to move faster. They would tee off as we were hitting our second shots and they're balls would come right by us. I told the marshal about it twice and he told us it was our fault for not speeding up. We were 20min ahead of the scheduled pace! Other than having to deal with that group of 4 pressing us and trying to hurry us along there were no other complaints about this course.

Greens/sandy

No tee markers were out. Greens are sandy and people need to know. Front nine was roped off on about 7 holes.

Greens and fairways

The greens had just been aerified and the fairways had a lot of weeds and were roped off so had to do more walking. Wish they had stated this at time of reservation. I’m sure it will be much better in a few weeks.
