Frequently Asked Questions

How challenging is Westlake Golf Course for an average player?

Westlake offers a fair test, but it's not going to beat you up. You'll find the front nine more forgiving, with wider fairways, while the back nine demands more precision, especially around the tight par-3s. We recommend playing from the white tees unless you're a consistent single-digit handicapper.

What's the most memorable hole at Westlake Golf Course?

Without a doubt, the par-5 14th hole is Westlake's showstopper. You'll navigate a dogleg left with a significant elevation drop to a green guarded by water on the right, offering stunning views of the distant hills. It's a true risk-reward hole that you'll be talking about long after your round.

When is the best time of year to play Westlake Golf Course for optimal conditions?

We highly recommend visiting Westlake in the spring (April-May) or fall (September-October). During these seasons, the weather is usually perfect-mild temperatures and less wind-and the course conditions are at their peak, with lush fairways and fast, true greens. Summer can get quite hot, and winter might bring some dampness.

What should I expect to pay for a round at Westlake Golf Course, and is it good value?

Green fees at Westlake typically range from $60-$90, depending on the day and time you play. We think it's excellent value for the quality of the course and its consistent upkeep. Look for twilight rates in the late afternoon for an even better deal, especially if you can finish 18.

Is it difficult to get a tee time at Westlake, and what's the typical pace of play?

Westlake is popular, so booking 7-10 days in advance is wise, especially for weekend mornings. You'll generally find a good pace of play here, usually around 4 hours 15 minutes to 4 hours 30 minutes, thanks to marshals who keep things moving. Just be mindful of your group's speed, especially on the tighter back nine.
