Needs lots of work
Fairways are over grown doesn’t look like a hey have been cut in weeks. Greens are awful!! Full of poana doesn’t look like anything has been treated or fertilized.
Pa!metro hills lots of promise but not there yet
We were first off so pace of play was quick. 18 holes 3 hours 15 minutes. Course has severe slopes and fairways are too sparse to hold the ball. Greens were so long that there were runners or seed pods throughout. Not worth the 36 dollar rate. Note I shot 80 so this isn't a beef about a bad day but an honest assessment of the course.
We appreciate you taking the time to review the course and rate us, detroitrichie. We are going to pass on your feedback to the team. Thanks for visiting Palmetto Hills Golf Club, and we hope to see you again in the future.
Getting alot better new owners really working on making it better
Hello, tim1172. Thanks so much for your review. We're so glad you enjoyed your round at Palmetto Hills Golf Club. That's what we like to hear! We hope to see you again soon!
Good challenging course
The course is challenging and the snakes are real lol. I like the layout of this course, which makes some holes very challenging. We were very fortunate that there weren’t that many people on, made the pace of play fast for us. The greens were a bit inconsistent at this time, but not bad. Now with the snakes… be careful going to the restroom out there, my brother thought it was a prank until he saw it move. Yes he ran back to the cart lol. Lose your balls into the woods, just drop it and continue. I will be playing here again.
Your feedback is important to us, Csoeung. Thank you for sharing your 5-star experience. We look forward to seeing you again at the course soon! Thanks for choosing Palmetto Hills Golf Club.
What happened
Booked a tee time online. When I got there, there was a tournament going on. Didn’t get to play. Not happy

Layout and shape
Seems like it could have potential but will require substantial investment. Greens were pretty good but fairways were very long, basically the length of rough at every other course I've played lately. Very large elevation changes but what was frustrating with course design was lack of landing areas. Some holes funneled good shots well off course which is probably why they keep fairways longer.

Hilly
Lots of hills, hence the name I suppose. Very challenging but fun course to play. Lots of blind shots, deceptive par 3’s , reachable in 2 par 5. Overall I enjoyed the round.
March golf
Coming from Maine I’m not sure what to expect for winter golf. Fairways, tees and rough were sparse. Some greats holes, many blind shots however that are tough when playing for the first time.
The staff was exceptional. Got me out early ahead of a large group which made pace of play awesome. Would play again for sure.
Loving the changes
It’s getting there with the changes to the course. I’ve always loved this place but it’s getting better and can’t wait for results of what’s to come
Pace of play
No one monitoring times off the tee. Also allow more than 4 in a group on a Saturday. Ended up asking to start on 10. Really could do a better job with pace of play
Super Slow Round
The course has a ton of elevation change and blind shots. The greens were brutally fast and often times a shot that missed by a few rolls rolled 20ft away and off the green. Group two in front of us was taking forever and course workers were only concerned about getting carts because they were obviously overbooked. No groups within 3 holes in front of them by the time we hit back 9. Can tell they are trying to turn this place around but 5.5 hrs was brutal. Would give it a chance again if in the area, but wouldnt make the drive just for the course
Nice course good value
Course is nice and enjoy playing here. The only downside is that I have visited multiple times and booked a tee time only to see that they are not open due to temp outside. Obviously if there is frost I understand. Drove to another course in the area abs was able to play. Recommend they consider blocking out times on booking site if not open.
Good value and future potential
This is the third time playing this course, and they are under new management for the last year, and they are doing much needed repairs to return the course to it newer days of years gone by. I like the layout, and it is worth giving a chance to enjoy.
