I played Canyon West on Monday morning and was disappointed with the condition of the greens. The maintenance crew had mowed the greens, but grass clippings were left all over them. This wasn’t just on a few holes—it was all 18 greens. The clippings affected putting and took away from the overall experience. After my round, I spoke with the pro shop and was told that Mondays are maintenance days and that it’s better to either avoid early tee times or play later in the afternoon. I appreciate the honesty, but this information would be helpful to know before booking a tee time. If golfers are paying full price, the course should either ensure the greens are cleaned off after mowing or make players aware of maintenance schedules ahead of time. Canyon West is usually a course I enjoy playing, which is why this was frustrating. Hopefully management can improve communication and course presentation on maintenance days.
One of the best courses I have played here in North Texas. The views are great from the elevated tee boxes. The course provides a challenge but does not discourage you from taking the shots you envision. Will definitely be going back.
The golf course is in great shape. Staff is great, especially in the club house. The views upon view upon views at this course are amazing. Was part of a smaller tournament this weekend and love the kindness of the staff and how well organized everyone was. Loved playing this course and will return and hope to take others.
Played on 10/9/2024. I have played this course over the past 15 years, so I've seen it's ups and downs as far as course conditions. I really like the course layout, and when it's in good condition, I think this course is a great place to play. When the wind gets blowing, some of the elevated tees can really challenge your ability to guess which club to use. Unfortunately, it still has major issues with its greens. They were covered in sand, and not just a little top dressing. It looks like they just throw sand over any dead areas, and that includes tee boxes. The bunkers were decent, didn't have any issues with them being either hard, or lacking sand. The fairways were in better shape than I've seen in the past. They have new GPS carts that were really nice. Probably some of the best I've ridden in and the GPS features with flyovers, green preview, etc were really cool. Water was available on the course that actually tasted decent. If the greens were in perfect condition, I'd give this course a 4.25/5.0 rating. Unfortunately, right now, I would be generous at 3.5/5.0. I hope management reads this and continues to improve this course. I just call them like I see them so that other players can get honest feedback of what to expect.
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ If you’re looking for one of the most scenic and unique golf experiences in North Texas, Canyon West Golf Club absolutely delivers. From the moment you arrive, the elevation changes and hilltop views set this course apart. Every hole feels different, and you’re constantly taking in some incredible scenery while still being challenged to hit quality shots. This isn’t a “grip it and rip it” course—you’ve got to think your way around, and that makes it even more fun. The course conditions were outstanding. Fairways were clean and well-maintained, and the greens rolled smooth, fast, and true all day. You can tell the staff takes a lot of pride in keeping this place in great shape. Staff was top-notch across the board—friendly, welcoming, and genuinely appreciative of your business. The pace of play was solid, and everything felt well organized from start to finish. If you enjoy a course that combines great conditions with unforgettable views and a layout that keeps you engaged, Canyon West is a must-play. Easily one of my favorite tracks in the area—I’ll definitely be back.
