The Groves Golf and Country Club
Rating Snapshot
About
Surrounded by 200 acres of carefully preserved wetlands, the Groves Golf & Country Club offers championship golf in a spectacular setting. It sits conveniently just 20 minutes north of Tampa in Land O Lakes. Maintaining the natural beauty of the landscape was a top priority when designing the golf course, which is why the layout manages to seamlessly blend into the surroundings. The course, which measures 4,026 yards, offers all of the challenging qualities of a championship-length course but can be played in four hours or less. The player-friendly golf course offers something for all skill levels whether you are a scratch golfer looking for a quick round, or a beginner looking for some challenging practice. In addition to the course, The Groves also boasts a unique aqua driving range as well as putting and chipping greens.

Extra Par 3’s
Unlike normal 18 courses this course had 8 par 3’s which is a faster pace and can work on your short game.
Fun Day at the Grove Course
The staff was extremely professional and the course shorter then mist with 8 par 3’s. Great to work on your short game. The value was worth it. Will come back again.
Thank you so much for the great review. We are glad you had an incredible time, and we hope to see you again soon! Thanks for choosing The Groves Golf and Country Club.
Good day at a small but good course.

review
For a short course ( only about 4000 yds from the tips ) you need to keep the ball in the fairway on your tee shots.....narrow fairways and water and sand hazards will come into play if you stray your shots.....not an easy course.....actually quite challenging for a high handicapper.....always in fine condition....with fast perfect greens and nice manicured fairways.....but don't hit it in the rough as I lost a couple of balls just off the fairway.....looking forward to returning again someday soon......
Hello, thank you for visiting us at The Groves Golf and Country Club. We appreciate your 4-star rating and feedback. We hope you join us for another round soon.
corderoy
Nice course...fairways excellent...tee boxes very good...greens very slow and grooved like corderoy pants. I place a high rating on greens as there is very little margin for error on putts. was almost impossible to make a putt beyond 10 feet. Will play again for great practice on chips and short par 3's
Thank you for taking the time to leave a review. We appreciate your feedback and apologize for any inconvenience you experienced with the greens. We will take your comments into consideration and work towards improving them. We hope to see you again soon for some great practice on chips and short par 3s.
Short but sweet
Course is short but plenty of challemges. If you place the ball well you can score well. Great course for the older golfer that has lost distance. You can still be putting for pars and birdies.

Thank you for your kind words! We hope to see you again at the course very soon for another 5-star experience. Thanks for choosing The Groves Golf and Country Club.
Fantastic Greens, but the rest needs work.
Fantastic short course and lots of challenges.
Par 66 should be more like par 60.
Greens were in great shape, sadly the tee boxes and fairways were very poor. Thankfully you don’t need to play from too many fairways. Carts are the best in the area. We will play again here.
