Palmetto Golf Course gets its name from the beautiful palmetto trees that line the fairways and meandering waterways. Although they add to the scenery, the trees double as a challenging element of the course since they can also affect shots. The golf course was designed by Dick Wilson, who has designed many other courses in the area. Water hazards come into play on 10 holes of the course, including the notable signature hole, which a 435-yard par-4. There are also sand bunkers strategically placed throughout. The Palmetto Golf Course facility boasts lighted practice facilities, including a practice putting green and driving range.

Rude

Rude golfers in front of us. Played extremely slow and parked their carts too close to the front of the greens. Ranger needs to get involved.

Otherwise a fun time on a nice course!

Hit ‘em straight “if you can”

A little windy, actually a lot windy, but in some holes, it helped in some holes. It hurt quite a bit. great course and a bit narrow, but it makes you a better player. You know you got hazards on the right hazards on the left or somebody else’s fairway on either side so as I said, it keeps you Focused. The greens were great. The bunkers well kept the water don’t know how deep it was but I lost three ball. overall a great course it happens to be my home course and I happen to love it. I play a lot around South Florida and California and this course stands next to each one of those.

First Time Playing

My 2633rd different golf course!

Obviously, from the title above, you can tell that I get to see a lot of different golf courses. I would definitely put this one around the Mendoza line,, especially considering the overall value. There were some quirky holes and a couple of places where conditions were rough but again for the $$ paid it wasn’t bad. I will put a little more information and pictures when I post this on my Instagram account @thequestfor3000 probably about a month from now in order for #2632!

Brutal

This place absolutely sucks. Pace of play is terrible stacking up tee box. Course is in bad shape. Staff is unaware of anytbing here. Foursomes won’t let you pass them.

Much improved

The greens have improved drastically in the last month. They are a bit hairy (and slow) but I assume it needs to grow in a bit before they can cut it too close and roll it.

Tee boxes need more wore as many are almost bald.

However, things are progressing in the right direction

Slow green dangerous routing

Time to tear this up and rebuild it like plantation preserve. Even if you are fertilizing, you can mow greens tighter and shorter. They were not good to putt on. This layout is bad.

Good holes

Greens are not at standard. Sand traps are not raked and they need sand in a few of the traps.

I am Disabled and they would not allow me the feature at the golf cart to allow me to be closer to the execution.

Cost is way too expensive for the quality of the golf course. Poor value for your money.

$96 is way too much for this course. You are losing many players because of the many issues there and cost.

Course needs attention

Very nice lay out.. Dan does a good job as manager. Needs more interaction.with players. Needs to say hello to people.

Patrick is another story. Does nothing and knows nothing. He is a racist. Volunteers are very un happy.

The cost of playing is way over the vale offered.

The Internet qualifies Palmetto poorly. Greens are poor. The crew cuts them but does not use rollers..

Golf carts are not cleaned every day. You charge $90 and give a golf cart dirty to the player.
