Metamora Fields Golf Course

Have played golf at Metamora Fields many time since is opened. The course is good, however the employees are rude and not caring. Have also eaten here a few times and stopped eating her over a year ago, so thought I would try it and see if improved. Actually it is worse that it was a year ago, chicken was overly greasy, service terrible, got an order to go and shoud have checked it out, instead of the advertise dinner salad got cole slaw, advertised bread, got no bread, assumed I’d get some plastic utenisisle and got none. Will avoid the dinning room as the food is not good and avoid the golf course because they don’t know the meaning of good service

I played Metamora Fields on both the 4^th and 5^th of July 2013. I was visiting Peoria for the holiday and decided to seek out an alternative to Weaver Ridge. In fact it was golfers I met at Weaver Ridge who all strongly suggested that I play Metamora Fields. It is a great links layout that but for the missing seaside provides one with a Long Island, Cape Cod, or Carolina coast golf experience. The course in impeccably maintained and the greens are very fast but true. However to score well, the shots into the green must come in with height and biting spin. A good score is available provided that one chooses a tee that is appropriate for their skill level… and of course keeping the ball in play and out of the fescue also helps. All of the holes are interesting and the par 3 holes are particularly very strong. The staff is very friendly and exude the hospitality that the Mid-​West is known for. The design of this course will have you planning another round as soon as you walk off of the 18^th hole.

I have played Metamora Fields quite a few times this year and last. It is definitely a good option in the Peoria area. I played this past Saturday and decided to write this review. From their website, «Designed by 13-​time Professional Golf Winner Worldwide, D.A. Weibring, and lead architect, Steve Wolfard, this classic golf course focuses on being „playable“ for golfers at every skill level. We believe in providing a fun, challenging, risk/​reward golf environment. The golf course has been designed to provide a fair test of golf from every set of tees, and we want you to come out to the course and experience classic golf for yourself.»
The course a very dry right now because of the drought, but even so, it is a good play. I had a great time and so will you. And it will only get better when it has the water needed to make this young course a true jewel and challenge to play.
