I’m new to golf and my boyfriend called ahead to see if the range was open to the public, they told us yes. Went to the facility and was “greeted” by less than friendly staff who said that the driving range was closed for hand picking. They did say we could play after some grief but then were going to charge $20 to rent a set of clubs that would be small enough for me. We decided to head to another place to spend our time!

Used to play out here like 6 years ago and since hearing it was terrible I hadn’t been back until yesterday. We had a mini tour (professional)event yesterday and I was thoroughly surprised at the shape it was in. Decent fairways and greens were pretty darn good. Not saying it was Augusta but I’d play there any day with the shape it’s in and I’m very biased when it comes to bad courses. It was fun and worth playing.

I had the unfortunate pleasure of playing this place for the first time yesterday. not sure how it gets an overall 4 star review on Google, but Im here to tell you it is anything but that. After pulling into the parking lot, the first thing you are greeted with is a large blue tarp covering a sizeable portion of the roof of the clubhouse. That should have been enough to make us turn around, but we didnt.I will just preface this with the fact that both myself and the person playing with me yesterday are not great golfers by any means, but there are certain things you would come to expect from a golf course where this place falls short.1. Signage is poor. We parked in the main parking lot and walked in the doors of what is apparently the restaurant, we had to work our way through the building and downstairs to find the pro shop. Once we left the proshop and had our bags loaded up, we then could not figure out where the first hole was, thankfully someone else who had been there before pointed us in the right direction. This was also true for the 10th hole, as we could not immediately find it. There are signs for other holes, and directions that guide you under tunnels, and for the driving range, but the 1st and 10th holes, nothing.2. This place does not drain well, AT ALL. While in the proshop we were informed that it would be cart path only. We abided by the rules, but quickly found out that the cart path doesnt actually exist throughout the entire course, it just ends, so we followed it to the best of our ability. We both lost balls in the fairway yesterday on multiple occasions, colorful (yellow and pink balls) right in the middle of the fairway, just gone. Again, it was that wet the ball would go up, come crashing to the ground, and leave a crater sized hole in the fairway, we spent time looking for our balls, but only had a 25% success rate in actually finding them. I wasnt aware how much rain that side of Orlando had received the night before, but where I live (East Orlando) it barely rained, so I didnt think this would be something Id need to be concerned with. We both left very muddy yesterday, my clubs and cleats were filthy.3. The tee boxes for the most part are terrible (see the picture that Ive included of the 15th or 16th hole as an example).4. The fairways werent much better than the rough, you could see on some holes that there was a defined fairway, but it was not manicured at all, it just happened to be a little shorter than the rough, but was like hitting out of my backyard.5. The putting greens were the lone bright spot, MOST of them were okay, not spectacular at all, but not the worst Ive ever seen.For the price ($32 through golfnow) this place should be ashamed. There are a few other courses in the Orlando area (winter pines for example) that are much nicer and charge the same or less with a much better experience.

I played here two years ago and thought it was right for the price. It was affordable and was in decent condition. Perfect for the average golfer. Now, it could be free and it wouldnt be worth the trip:1. Half of the course was dirt, including the fairways and rough.2. The other half was overgrown.3. Greens were in TERRIBLE condition. As if putting wasnt already difficult. The greens were filled with divots and dead spots. I understand Florida heat takes a toll on greens, but this was obviously neglect. Unless you hit every approach shot within a foot, you can count on the conditions to cost you a few strokes for the round.4. We made the turn at about 5:45. We wanted to buy some water and use the restroom. Clubhouse was already closed up.5. Two sprinklers on the back 9 were running, one over a tee box (had to tee off further up) and one on a green (didnt even finish the hole).Overall, it is very evident the owners and workers do not take any pride in the condition of the course.

This venue was all that and then some. The venue is gorgeous the views are stunning. I used this venue for a friends baby shower. It was easy to book and the catering staff the day of the event went over and beyond to make sure everything flowed well. They helped with every detail and accommodated all my requests. I couldn’t ask for any better service. I am extremely satisfied. Thank you so much. Keep up the good work!!

A lot of work has been done to this course. Keep it up. Fast greens nice layout too.

Needs a lot of work in order to earn one star. Encountered a grounds crew on one of the greens while we were trying to play. It’s more of a cow pastures than a golf course. I rate it with Legends and Stony Brook West (both overgrown and closed) which I’m afraid is theUltimate fate of what was in the 1990s a very good course.

Love this course, very well kept. Food is amazing in the restaurants located on the premises.

Several issues. took 6 hours to play a round of golf. The sprinklers were on, in the fairway, on multiple holes on saturday morning and after noon. at the end of the round , the staff that meets you to clean clubs was extremely rude. Various grass textures throughout. Many greens are mostly crab grass and tee boxes are dirt.

Clean course and was a lot of fun Id golf there again.

Overall an above average course with fair green rates. Drink specials if you buy 4 youll get two more for free. Only problem we had was the sprinklers were always on which ever hole we were on. Brought to managements attention and theyre aware of their issues and will be installing a new system by February 2020.

Love this course.. The scenery is great and the course is kept clean

This is a hard review to write. I have some fond memories of this golf course from when I used to play a lot more. But I gave up the game back in 2012 for various reasons and recently picked it up again due to the pandemic. I was just looking for something to do. So I bought new clubs and have been practicing/playing quite a bit. I decided to play this course with some friends.Let me preface this by saying the course has no control over the state of the area surrounding the course. Metrowest isnt what it used to be. But its still a nice area. However, theres nothing they can do about the What-used-to-be-a-million-dollar-home with an obviously long-broken awning and a warped hot tub cover or the Luxury Condos with beer bottles in the grass outside their patio next to the course.But I have to admit, I was a bit saddened by the condition of the course. Its still just as challenging as I remember. There are a couple of completely blind approach shots, lots of elevation changes, some well placed water hazards and some tight areas due to residences. But it doesnt overshadow the state of the course itself.Most of the sand traps were at least 30% weeds and barely any sand probably in years. The rough was rough, but too much so. If Im 10 off the fairway, I shouldnt be hitting off grass worse than my backyard. I almost drove through a few tee boxes because they were in a worse state than the nearby rough. And those greens were not good. Comically slow and in some cases as much as 25% weeds near the holes (not on the fringes).I didnt pay a crazy amount to play today, so I wont be a jerk and give it lower than a 3. I actually had fun today. But that may have been more about my playing partners than the course. I have a few other buddies that would not have been happy today. Truth be told, I would rate it a 2.5 if I could. Maybe even a 2.25.So I have to be honest, that its just okay. And its really a shame. With some care, that could be one of the best courses in Central FL. Unfortunately, I dont see that happening. And not because of the workers or anything like that. Theyre working hard. (Although, I kind of wish the guy cutting the rough would stop driving when hes only 40 away and Im obviously about to hit a ball.) Central FL is a very competitive market for golf. Even a courses A game could still lose out to some website selling tee times for $20 not far away. Its a fickle market here.Good luck, Metrowest Golf Course. Ill probably still play you again. Its the home of my first ever birdie!

The course was in terrible condition! Weeds had taken over everywhere, fairways, rough and tee boxes. Tee boxes were barren and uneven. Greens were shaggy and slow.It’s a shame because the layout is nice but a lot of work is needed before I’d think to play here again.

Theres no such thing as a fairway here, the entire course is a rough. Greens roll ok but are mostly crab grass. They had the sprinklers on on a Sunday morning. Wont be back.

Only got to play 9 holes due to the rain but with that said the course was pretty good. Although the greens could use some work on a couple holes on the front 9

This golf course is under new management. They are bringing it back to its former glory.

I really enjoyed playing this course! It has wide fairways and theyre in great shape. Our T-time on a Saturday was at 2pm and we didnt finish till 6:45pm, be aware that it might be VERY slow on a Saturday afternoon. None the less, the fairways are wide open and not a lot of water (more sand) and you will be hitting your driver almost every hole. Id recommend playing here

It is amazing to me that they allow this place to be open it should be a crime to called a golf course if they offered me a dozen are probably ones and a free greens fee I still wouldn’t play here Whoever leaves a review that this place is nice does not know a thing about Golf

Terrible course.1. They ran out of carts at 10:30am. This delayed tee off by 30+ minutes as we waited for people to come back in.2. No ranger on the course, so people skipped the lines waiting for the carts. No people grouping either.3. Bathrooms are code locked, and they dont give you the code when leaving so we had to call the clubhouse for the codes when we need to use the bathroom. 4. They had the sprinklers running at multiple holes and fairways! I mean at least 6 holes plus had multiple sprinkles going full tilt.5. They dont have hole maps at each hole, so you have to use your GPS phone.For the cost > $30, this was not a good experience.

Fair way terrible. But that is not the problem.. The next cut is too long and thick. You can see your ball fall but when you ger to it you cant find it.. Not worth thhe price

DONT WASTE YOUR MONEY OR TIME!!!The fairways have more mud/dirt on them than grass, to the point we had to move our next shot onto some decent grass. The greens were awful, the ball would bump and hop off line almost every putt. Its a shame because this course used to be worth playing.

Over from Scotland and we had the pleasure of playing Metro West last November. We actually played 36hls in one day. Course wassound condition,scenery stunning layout great. Most of all was the way we were made to feel welcome by all the staff. So hats off to you and your team.

Bad for the neighbors.At the end of the event that was held today 12/07, users who regularly use the sidewalk of Metrowest Blv, found that the Organizers blocked access to collect their material and despite the fact that our right is free traffic, the driver of the vehicle .He was extremely aggressive, shouting bad words made us see that he was there willing to hit anyone who intervened in his work and that while he needed it, the circulation was blocked.This type of attitude makes the neighbors ask: What kind of people are bringing these events to our community?

July 4th Music Festival for the community was absolutely amazing. Will always remember the fun, food, concert, and most importantly the fireworks show. Spectacular. Thanks sponsors!

Located at beautiful and upscale Metrowest Neighborhood area. Gorgeous landscaping. I loved the scenery with lakes, pines trees, tunels and gorgeous sunset views. I was so lucky this day, because on the top of the hill, I was able to see Downtown Orlando and a space shuttle taking off from Kennedy Space Center, how cool is that? The winter is warmer in the Sunshine State. I feel soo blessed to be here.The staff was really nice and helpful.

Many of the fairways had a lot of dry spots. it look like it was the dry season. when all the other courses I play look Lush and green. At least two of the greens had a patch of mud on it. The greens are remarkably fast. Like putting on a concrete LOL

Come on, trying to come out and support local courses but for $30 you should be ashamed!There is a grab and go menu however your not allowed to have a cup of ice in 90 degree weather.Putting green is a sand trap without holes.1 star is high, even during this crazy time were in.... pretty sad .

Andrea Serrano,You were a great gift that God gave me so that my ceremony and reception would flow well.You arrived at the right time and helped me SO MUCH that I just have to thank you, really!You were a team with me, we worked together! Your professionalism and kindness are two great qualities of yours and I am sure you were fundamental for making my perfect day happen. You not only did your job pretty well, but you showed how human and sensible you are and how you care about a bride not only on her special day, but before and after. The moment I met you, you were everything a bride that is preparing a wedding alone needs: great relief and great help.I want to say from the bottom of my heart: THANK YOU ! I will never forget you. I wish you all the best and may you succeed in everything you do !I loved meeting you and having you on my special day! Youre the best !ps. It was so sweet the champagne table you set for me and the art you created for the table and the TV were so gorgeous!ps2. The catering was perfect too! My guests and I loved each meal You guys rock!

Wide open course Winners Fairways not in too bad a shape. Greens roll pretty good. All around good

Fun course with friendly staff. Fairways and greens were in decent condition. Overall, a great value for the price.

Choose another course. Couldnt find a patch of grass in the FAIRWAY!!! Literally, mud instead of grass. GREENS were not green, nor flat, nor well kept. Worse conditions Ive ever seen this course. Recommend you choose another couse, sorry to say....

The golf was not too difficult but definately interesting. Saw blue herons and a turtles.Some of the best views and scenery.

Greens are well kept.

Use to be one of my favorite courses to play in the Orlando area. Boy has this course changed for the worst. Fairways are atrocious. Greens are blah, traps are okay. Not sure what happened between 2018 and 2020. But, this course is headed down hill. Play elsewhere.

I have played this course many times but have played it when it’s in such poor condition. Fairways and greens are in awful condition, sprinklers running creating more mud. 25-30 MPH winds and they were fertilizing with a tractor. The fertilizer created a dust cloud that gagged you. They should close and redo at least 9 holes. Also wanted to mention what poor condition their carts are in, we had to be pushed by another cart to get up hills.

One of the worst courses in central Fl. Everything from tee to green is terrible. DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY

So perfect, neat, calm and they have food trucks with music the last Thursday of every month as well as a wonderful kids event on Christmas and 4th of July.

You need to remove the pictures on Golf Now, thats false advertising. Ive played this course many times and have not seen the course look like the pictures in YEARS. The pictures of the course looks as though your preparing for a PGA Tournament. Sad that in person it looks like a goat pasture. No need to reply with your standard Thank you..........Sorry..... Please email us......... I will play again once the course ratings are a strong 4 or 4.5 stars from other reviewers comments. Come on Hampton. You can do it

This course was awful! The fairways were dirt hard. The greens were full of crab grass and no assemblance of a green to roll your ball. Our group found this golf course to be unmanaged or maintained. Not a very good course that needs significant improvements!!!

Like other courses here in Fla, they cycle thru good and bad weather. Over all Metro West is in good shape- when the rain lets up theyre able to maintain it & return it to the pristine condition were used to. Love this place!

Not much grass in fairways. Weeds growing on greens. Would not recommend this course

Dont waste your money. I played here 2 years ago and it was okay. I played there today and its in terrible shape overall. Fairways have very little grass and greens are terrible.Not worth the special price.

Excellent value, wide open fairways, very playable course. Friendly relaxed atmosphere.

Friendly people. Nice public course

It’s really a mess right now. Horrible greens, fairways, tee boxes, you name it. I still play it because it’s one of the places where you can get a tee time after 2 Pm. I’m hoping when the rain comes back they can get back to the old metro.No need to reply back about my review. I’m not calling to express my concerns. Just get back to how it used to be. Green fairways and playable greens.I’ll come back to update my review WHEN you do.Update: I’ve probably played my last round there. The fairways, tee boxes, and greens have somehow gotten worse and the last straw was hole number 10. The pin was at the end of the fairway. Not even on the green. It’s a wasted hole. They either need to close down to get things right or charge $15. It’s bad bad there.

4 stars for realistic expectations based off the price...course itself is 3 star with a few barren tee boxes and bumpy greens. Second time playing here, 1st time was over seeded in the fall and the course was in much better shape. Staff is excellent and eager to help. Highly recommend if you want a decent course at an unbeatable price for the area

Dont believe the pics on the web-site or the google rating. I assure you the course is NOTHING like the pics and definitely NOT a 4 star course. I have not played the course in 2 years, and was SHOCKED when I played it this past weekend. What has happened to this course? Used to be great. The top right of the green on #11 is literally weeds. I mean they literally mowed weeds to create the green. The tee boxes either have not grass or are covered in weeds. The bunkers are unkempt. You cant play the course without placing in the fairways. The greens are like playing plinko. The facilities are totally run down too. The big putting green is now over grown. The chipping area.. overgrown. Even the range doesnt look like it has been mowed in 6 months. I dont even know why this course is still open? Is it a contractual obligation? I cant think of any other reason. You have been warned... avoid at all cost!!!!!

Beautiful facility. Nice staff!

I would liken the course to that very attractive actress that got involved with the wrong crowd and you then have just drugged out mugshots to look at now. The greens are bare in large sections on most holes. They just started rehab on them so for their sake, I hope it takes. They kept saying they just hired a new greenskeeper who is going to fix it but charged regular price and when I called they said they were in good shape. My group arrives and wasn’t till we hit the first green that we realized what was to come. The fairways were patchy in spots but not a deal breaker. Tee boxes were pretty beat up but the greens were the biggest issue. We actually were counting the number of times the ball bounced on the way to the hole when we putted. The cups were also VERY poorly cut. Most cup inserts were .5 inches or less from the top lip. Had one guy hit a solid putt that bounced straight out of the hole because of that. Will be a while before we return and hope they plan for a long road ahead.

Yikes. This course is in awful shape from tee to green and its unfortunate because it used to be one of the premier courses in Orlando. I dont think Ill be coming back for quite some time, sadly.

Visiting for a benefit brunch. Very nice facility for holding such an event. Theres a covered drive up in case of rain, very convenient. Parking lot was mostly shaded by beautiful oak trees.

What an awesome place to play some good golf for reasonable price! Friendly service from very respectful people. A golf course that offers me challenges, but is simple enough for a beginner like me. Beautiful scenery I need dont have to get too far away

Very nice but needs a little bit more light in the parking area for the late events

Its been about a month since my wedding and just came back from my honeymoon and wanted to rate my experience with this vendor. The crew was very helpful and I can see they tried to do their best to work around the kinks of the day. But booking Metro West Golf club as my wedding vendor was the worst choice I could have made.I was promised that a second room could be used during my wedding day for the appetizers serving, bartender, and any additional props I brought in. Minutes before the ceremony I was informed by my bridesmaids they were water leaks in the room and everything was moved out and closed off from the party, which I feel violates their contract.For the rate of this vendor I would think that they would maintain their roofing so leaks don’t occur during events. I also found it disrespectful that while I was preparing myself in the lockers, other clients were allowed to scope out the location for their booking. Please do yourself a favor and book else where. Just find a location that atleast has solid contingencies in place that cherishes your special day.

The staff is so friendly! Grace always has a smile and a conversation.

The course has really gone down hill. It is no longer properly maintained. I would advise avoiding it.

MetroWest Bad shape & Bad ServiceIt!!!

One star for location. Otherwise, course is in terrible shape. Weeds on greens, fairways and sandtraps! Was once one of the nicest courses in Orlando. Not sure what management is planning long-term but eventually, even low rates wont attract golfers.

Enjoyed the round, looks like that this golf course used to be in a good shape, but it is not anymore. Unfortunately very poor quality.

The staff here is great, very friendly and respectful.The course difficulty was lower. Very open, so it is easy to stay out of trouble.The day I was there (A Thursday in Feb at 9:25 tee time) the pace was slow. Extremely slow. I started, not by choice, 15 minutes late. By the 5th hole, we were caught up to 2 groups. It was painfully slow.Given the price, I wasnt expecting much better, but was hoping for a Marshall to help the pace.All around, a decent experience.

Good course other than when they cut the grass they leave it on the course in the summer but we will be back.

Maaaaaaan! It hurts to to see what has happened to MWGC...This was the place to go play a nice round of golf here in Orlando but this is no longer the case. The fairways, the greens, the putting green, the golf carts, the chipping area, the golf range, the tee boxes, are 100% totally abandoned! Whoever owns/manages this golf course, should really consider a total revamping or closure. So SAD to see that its come to this.

After playing at this course I would like to request my money back. This course is very bad. The tee boxes are just full of sand, divets and crabgrass. The fairways are horrible and muddy. The grass retains a lot of water from previous rain. The pro shop is less than mediocre. There are no information markers on any of the holes. No food was available until after 11am. The greens are really bad most of it is covered up by fill in sand. Over all this course gets a 1, if I could go lower I would. Expensive for the shape of the course. I wont be back.

Was such a great course,,,years ago, maybe even 2 years ago, was ok. The Chinese bought ot. Now completely trashed. Clearly seems they are burning it to the ground. Apparently trying to have it closed, and creat housing development to make more money.Get a grip. Put money into this course, or sell it.

It was so cool and the terain is nice and flat and made sure i had no obsticles while learning

MetroWest has always been a very beautiful experience for VCA graduating classes for the past seven years. I would say they make us feel welcome and able to be taking care of with professionalism and cleanlinessI. The students graduates, family , and staffhave a safe fellowship after ther stellar bacularte graduation ceremony that Victory Christian Academy .

Good and fun course. Exellent value for money. Greens could use some work

Friendly staff; very good cart lady. Price very reasonable. Greens were surprisingly fast and smooth.

Course layout is very good... variety of holes and very playable... conditions could be better though... still enjoyable

Not sure how they can ask you for $50 with a straight face for the green fee. There was no grass anywhere. Course was in horrible condition. They did have several grounds crew members on the course cutting weeds so I guess there is that.

Nice staff, horrendous conditions everywhere

Beachbody super weekend was great!

The facility is beautiful but the turf is nearly nonexistent

Epic, love this place , amazing food and people

Awesome place to play golf ️ and exercise Insanity live class with Team Beachbody Orlando

Work related scramble! Had a good time but it was difficult to know which hole was which because their hole markers were non-existent! We ended up on the wrong hole a couple times, lol!

Too many beginners too many slow players wont let you advance your a single and greens are terrible. But its cheap with

They hosted a free music festival and fireworks show for the 4th of July!

Nice layout. Some tee boxes need attention after the winter season. Good greens.

My cousin recently got married here and the location was lovely.

Worst public course in central Florida. Players beware.

Better than it was summer rate of 30 cant be beat. fairways and tee boxes a bit rough. for convenience and location cant be best. staff does a great job

Good course in good shape. Fun and yet challenging. Good pace of play. Reasonable price. Overall very good value.

Course is still very rough. Fairways are full of grass that is obviously not fairway grass. Greens are not horrible but very inconsistent.

Always enjoy the clubhouse with wonderful staff. Had The Phenomenal Brunch this morning. Jessica and crew were the best. Thanks again.

Metrowest Golf Club is a truly enjoyable round of golf. A unique parkland golf course feel in Florida is rare, open grassland areas where holes run next to each other. Whether youre playing for leisure or competition, this Robert Trent Jones design is truly thee classic in greater Orlando. It will and should be your go to course to just play golf in Orlando.

Rough condition

Great course, fabulous condition.

Needs work on the fairways greens and bunkers

Metrowest needs to decide what they want to be: a top of the line facility known for excellent location, layout, and landscaping or a high volume course with excellent bang for the buck. As of now it is overpriced and under maintained.

I was helping with a charity event there. The people are amazing they are so kind and respectful!

Great course for the price, friendly staff.

Good conditions. Wet from overnight rains making greens inconsistent. Notification of such at check-in would have been helpful. Booked a special that included a free beer which was never mentioned or offered.

Enjoyed playing golf there

Club has potential but seems run down as of late.

Course is nice enough and the staff was very curteous - from the time we pulled up until we drove off; this was outstanding service. I cant think of anyplace I have been where the the staff was so supportive; well done. Course is in fair shape but plays well. I could have used a hole guide/diagram. I found some hazards creeping into the fairway that I couldnt see from the tee box. All the same, an enjoyable course and well worth playing.

I love it my coarse, the greens are good

Great Course with Great staff ... Definitely will be back again ....

Course was not in top shape.
