MetroWest
MetroWest Golf Club: Located just 5 miles from the heart of Orlando and a couple of miles north of Universal Orlando Resort, this always popular golf course has Robert Trent Jones Snr to thank for its enjoyable and varied layout.
Although much of the course perimeter is flanked by houses and condos, the two nine-hole loops exude quite an open feel, with the holes often running out-and-back in pairs, especially so on the back-nine. Occasional lakes and ponds, and plenty of shallow bunkering pose the greatest threat here, more so than tight tree-lined fairways.
At times quite forgiving, at others more challenging, this is a good course on which to sharpen your overall game in preparation for taking on some of Orlando's more imposing layouts ... although at just over 7000 yards from the tips, MetroWest certainly does not lack for length.
The layout includes several pleasant elevation changes, most notably on the back-nine, which also offer scenic views eastward to downtown Orlando. Laying down a fair, yet demanding challenge, MetroWest offers an enjoyable golf experience for players of all skill levels.
Visitors welcome on weekdays and weekends.
