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 For Great Value

The course was playing a bit more difficult than normal, because the wind was pretty high at around 20 MPH out of the S SW. Tee boxes and fairways were cut close and clean. My only real complaint would be that the greens needed to be mowed. The grass just seemed to be a bit high on them, thus the putts were slower than I'm used to. Other than that, it was a Great Course For Great Value!!!

This course is challenging to the middle and high handicapper.

I enjoy playing this course even though the wind is always a factor.Its just more challenging trying to predict the effect of the wind.The last time I played it was June 27,2014 and the wind was gusting up to 40MPH.My thanks and appreciation go out to Mr.Richard Stuart the new owner for the improvements and the re-conditioning of the facility.I plan on playing here more often.

Enjoyed the experience a lot

Rain had required cart paths only.
Yet - friendly staff and overall course conditions made the round a lot of fun. We got very wet in 18th fairway from a sudden t-storm, but we're all looking forward to returning for a dry round of golf.

Great Time!

My son and I drove an hour to play this course and it was well worth the trip. The course was in great shape, the staff were all super friendly and the hot dog, chips and drink at the turn was perfect. We will definitely be back.

This course is in great shape right now. Winter was hard on most greens in the area. Cayon West's greens are in good shape. They also have beautiful views all over this course.

A really nice course

Changes that have been made and those that appear to be in progress make this an extremely nice course. It has some very challenging holes on it and it is very pleasing to the eye! I will definitely play it again!

Personal Best

The course was in great shape. The work the owners have been doing are showing. The greens were soft and accepting during my round. The fairways were in good shape and not all marked up, which considering they had had a couple of tournaments recently it was in very good shape.

CW is shaping up nicely, the new owner is cleaning it up and continues to make it a nice visit with some good golf. The water features have had some good attention given to them and I look forward to what they are going to work on next.

Enjoyable Time

I play this course every chance I get even without a great price. It's close to home, the people are always very friendly, they appreciate their customers, the course is fun, and the landscape of Western theme is great. It's just a fun time to play at Canyon West. My family, my son and grandson really enjoy playing there. Every time they come to visit that's where they want to play. I highly recommend it.

Enjoyable for all levels

This course is easy enough for the average golfer to have fun and possibly have a low score, but it is also a place where the more accurate golfers can enjoy placing the shot and reading the elevation changes accurately. Great fun for all in our group.
The 19th Hole was beautiful, and the Hot Dog and other snacks between nines was great. Staff was very friendly and made us feel welcome.
