Colony West Golf Club's Championship Course occupies a residential setting in Tamarac, a suburban city in Broward County between Fort Lauderdale and Boca Raton. The course was designed by Bruce Devlin and Robert von Hagge, a prolific partnership that shaped numerous Florida layouts during the 1970s and 1980s. Their work typically emphasized bold water features, strategic bunkering, and the kind of visual drama that could be carved from Florida's flat terrain. The routing makes extensive use of water hazards, a signature element of the Devlin-von Hagge style, with lakes and canals coming into play on multiple holes. The design incorporates the mounding and contouring characteristic of their approach, creating definition and interest on a naturally level site. Mature landscaping and tropical vegetation frame the fairways, providing both aesthetic appeal and strategic considerations off the tee. The course serves a country club community and functions as the centerpiece of the Colony West residential development. It has hosted regional amateur events and club championships over the years, serving as a competitive test for South Florida golfers. The layout requires thoughtful course management, particularly in wind, as water placement and green complexes demand accurate approach play. The facility includes practice areas and a clubhouse that supports both golf operations and social activities typical of Florida country club life.
