Palmetto Hills GC

I love this course.

Lots of hills and contoured greens. Keep the ball on the fairway and you will have a good round.

I did see some walkers. But, I recommend a golf cart.

Too notch value. I couldn't believe the condition of most of the greens, absolutely beautiful. I'd play here twice a week if I could. Challenging, beautiful course!

Unbelievable improvements!!! Hidden gem

The improvements this course has made over the past 2-3 years has been incredible. I have played this course close to 40 times in that span, and since last year, it has improved even more. The greens seem to be recently redone and most are in excellent shape. There are perhaps 2 greens that have always been in rough shape, but the rest are great. Leaps and bounds from where they were before; you can tell some serious work was put in. Same can be said for the fairways, which once resembled abandoned fields - fairways are well taken care of. The landscaping on the course and around the clubhouse has also greatly improved; and brand new golf carts with GPS capability were purchased this year. Amazing job Palmetto Hills groundskeeping crew for turning this place around. On top of that, the value for this course is unbelievable. Great place to get some swings in and enjoy an afternoon on a course that has plenty of character. Staff is always friendly. Great job!!!

Need a starter and a ranger

I’ve left early the last two times because of the slow pace of play. They don’t have a starter so you have people forming fives ones, single and two players not grouped with others, and apparently no one enforcing pace on the course. Unless I see that pace is being handled, I don’t want to play here. I like the layout and appreciate the progress that has been made on the course conditions. The last time I was there the 9th green was looking much better. Important since that’s their marquee hole. When I read that there’s a starter managing the groups going off I’ll come back, but otherwise I’ll play elsewhere.

Greens need help

The course wasn't horrible, I was upset I couldn't log my score on the GHIN app. Several greens had dead spots all over, which made it impossible to putt.
