Boca Raton Municipal Golf Course boasts a championship course as well as a nine-hole Executive Course. The Championship Course is challenging but playable thanks to four sets of diverse tees. The rolling landscape is dotted with lakes and mature trees that provide challenges throughout. The fairways are wide but they are bordered by a thick cut of rough and strategically placed bunkers surround the fast greens. There are also a few holes that feature hidden water hazards for added difficulty. The layout offers a number of tricky holes but overall it is a very player-friendly golf course. For less experienced players or for those looking for a quick round, the Executive Course is an excellent option that can be played in less than 90 minutes and there is also a driving range and putting and chipping greens.

Course being sold. Poor condition

Have played here 3x in last 5 months. The young guy who takes clubs and loads the cart has a lousy attitude. He knocked over my drink because he literally threw the bag on the cart. Never even apologized. I wanted to knock him down. The guys inside pro shop and the starter were very friendly. It looks like it's being sold to major developer...all 270 acres. What was always a really nice muni course is now run down from tee boxes to greens. Save your money.

Best grens this year

I play around and usually do not stick to one course, keeping that in mind, The greens are perfect and fast. I have not seen a lot of greens around lately that are A) the same color uniformly B) absent of weeds and C) free of sand and divots. The course layout is not very difficult until you are dancing on those slick greens. The beer cart passed by often enough and the snack bar visit was quick enough to get back to play. The staff everywhere has always treated me well as I treat them the same. Overall, I would recommend this course as a staple in your course roster.

Nice course but not great

This was an excellent cost value. I played a round for less than 25 bucks. The course was in fair shape, but the pace was extremely slow and I had to pay for my wife to ride along. I've played several courses and never had to pay for a rider. That would have been nice to know in advance. I played Orange County national last year which is a premier golf course and they did not make such a requirement. Pace of play was slow also because of random foursomes showing up.

Pleasantly surprised

Enjoyed the round. The course was in nice shape and the layout and design were good as well. Good value as well. Paid $30 for a weekend round. Would play this course over some of the other higher priced "resort" courses.

Second best public in Boca

Play this Boca Raton gem, before its too late. Other than Osprey Pointe this is the public course to play in south Palm Beach County.

Local government politicos should be ashamed. To discard this public course for more houses/condos smells of malfeasance. This is a matter of the public greater good vs. greed.

Take a page out of Baltimore's public golf book. Twenty some plus years ago they setup a public golf corporation that turned ragged courses into "quality of life" courses; not housing tracks.

Bogus Players Assistant

Conditions are good with this course, its a shame the property is at the center of an outrageous bid war for the land. The problem is with the management. Pace of play was unacceptable on a Saturday afternoon. Showed up with a half full parking lot so expected to finish 18 holes starting at 3:30 and finishing by 7:30. Foursum in front of us and 2, twosums behind us. Multiple times we were telling the ranger to make the group in front move along or even split and he was either deaf or ignored us. He was usually always around because there was probably 4 groups on the whole course and we were all on 2 holes the whole back nine. He was observing everything that was happening but wasn't doing anything about it. I hope for the sake of this persons ethics that the ranger job is a volunteer position, or he's just completely untrained on how to perform his job duties. Once we got to the 18th tee, he closed the course due to the sign on his cart that said course closes at 7:40 and I guess a pre-determined time which they want the carts returned. He would not let us play down the 18th even after pleading with him. Meanwhile, still plenty of light left to play. He didn't do his job while his customers were trying to finish a round behind a slow foursum and encouraging him to move play along. But when it was time for him to clock out, he had no problem closing the course. Even the manager looking guy at the club house wouldnt let us walk back and walk the last hole so we could at least record a score. I get they want the carts back, but even the manager couldnt do the right thing. Two people with no concept of customer satisfaction or hospitality. So salty about it which means I wont be back before it gets sold, unless I buy it and turn it into Palm Beach Nationals sister course. I wish I had more money so I could literally buy this course and snatch it from Lennar or Toll Brothers or whoever is trying to buy it and hire Paradigm to manage it and I could save a great track in prime time Boca.... Shame. Golf investors take note.

Good Value

Although this course can be crowded is a great value. For a municipal course it is in great condition and has been fun each time I've played it. The greens were rolling well and the fairways/tee boxes were all in good condition. Looking forward to returning.
