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 and awesome staff

Course is well kept, fun to play, and challenging at the same time. The views are beautuful while playing and from the clubhouse. The carts have computers on then to keep score, and let you know the layout and distance to the holes. You can also contact the staff from the computer. The staff are very friendly. It's a very enjoyable golf experience.

Improvements bringing back great course!

I enjoyed our round of golf for the first time in a while at this course! The ownership seems to have made the changes necessary to bring this course back to life! It has always been one of my favorite layouts and continues to provide a fun yet challenging round! Great job, great course!

This course is half like a links style course and the other half is more wooded and less open so you get a great variety of golf.

Love to play this course but it can beat you up if it's windy.The courses layout is very nice and lots of beautiful views thruout the course.Cant wait to play it again.

Improved again

The course keeps getting better. The work around 12 green and 13 tee box adds to the overall experience even tough the work doesn’t change the playability. Impressed with the new hole markers on the tee boxes as well. Glad they continue to improve!

It's Worth the Drive

Canyon West has a wide variety of holes - downhill with the wind, uphill against the wind, flat over water...and even a big tree in the middle of the fairway.

I found the course conditions quite good as long as you keep it in the fairway.

Greens are in great shape and will only run smoother as the season gets warmer.

It's a very pleasant round out there - and oh so quiet.

Canyon West Golf

Winter golf in Texas is what it is.The hard lies and bumpy greens is just the way it is in Texas.Were just lucky we have warm enough weather we can play many days in the winter.We always look forward to the Spring and Summer for the plush fairways and smooth rolling greens.Canyon West golf club is one of the best in the Metroplex.

Canyon West

The fairways have the grass cut so short that you are hitting off the clay on about 85 percent of the holes. If not for the fairways this would be a 5 Star course.
