Hollywood Beach Golf Club

As the city of Hollywood withholds millions for improvements to this nearly 100-year old track, the course management trudges along, doing its best to maintain a historic Donald Ross layout whose greens are shag-carpet slow and whose poorly-draining fairways were unplayable on several holes. No matter. For 20 beans apiece, my buddy and I worked on our games as we scampered through a rain-threatened, thoroughly enjoyable round in just two hours and 30 minutes. A delicious, bar-b-que pork sandwich in the cozy snack trailer with a knockout bartender capped off an entertaining visit to Hollywood Beach, home of South Florida's friendliest staff.

2/3rd of fairways flooded. Holes right on top of each other. Not worth the $35

Right now the worst conditioned golf course in Broward County and possibly the tri-county. It's just in such poor condition and they seem to accept that as it's been this way since well before 2000. Greens are rolling at about a 4 with such poor grass. Most good courses fairways would putt smoother. Traps are pretty much unplayable. Tees are uneven, Fairways are bare and St. Augustine grass owns the rough.

Pluses - not many sand patches on the green. Extra high rough around the greens challenging. Not much play so we as a well hitting twosome went around in 2 hours and 10 minutes. The layout is old school interesting. 2 per threes in a row twice in the round and 2 short par-5's to begin the round of the Par 70 Donald Ross design. Great walking course with the old school design. BIGGEST PLUS - City passed a bond referendum to put money into this course. That is what would return this old jewel to it's status as a revered Donald Ross design. But until then you have been warned....

Went today, I am on a vaca with my girlfriend and we are from Ohio. Looked forward to playing golf in Florida. This was my first time. Bad condition. Some tee boxes were like sand boxes. Greens were as tall as most fairways. Just not fun for me. I’ve played some cheap golf in Ohio and never seen a course that was this bad if I’m being honest. Wouldn’t recommend.

Greens need TLC. Not many water hazards, but wouldn't you know it, lost 3 balls. 2nd time I've played the course and will go back. Good course to tune distance and price is good.

Played twice recently. Layout is excellent, if unusual; back to back par 3s on each side, for example. Greens are slow and the course needs a bit more care, but there is a lot to be interested in here and the price and pace of play are very attractive.

Everything went well. Course looked good considering what we've been thru.

This is the first time I played this course. First, I will say that of the south Florida courses I have Played the last 3 weeks, this one had the largest iguanas by far. Interesting lizards for sure. There were a few holes that needed a little TLC. The greens slow since the grass was a bit long and indeed a few greens needed TLC as well. Pro shop nice, rest rooms clean as well. Some easy holes and some very challenging holes so a good mix. Despite the need for a little TLC, I did enjoy my round and will good back. Can't beat the price.

It's a very good value for money! Some areas of the fairways are not perfect and the tees are pretty peeled but overall it's nice with some good water challenge. Would be back

I'm not sure why this course is not in much better shape being owned by a golf pro..When golf now has a hot deal for 25 bucks I like to book it..I hope they put some money into this course it can really be a lot nicer..Still not bad for 20-25 bucks though.

Shocked myself with a 38 on the front nine. My average 43 on the back.

Oblivious people who won’t let you play through despite their excruciating play... No one to hurry anyone up on the course... Cart girl was napping in the corner of the course in her cart when we came through... Couldn’t tee off one hole because some random person that wasn’t playing was strolling down the middle of my fairway... Bad experience

Basic straightforward golf. You can score here but there are a legitimate number of really challenging holes especially when you play the back tees. When the greens speed up you'll find a great amount of character and runoff in them. Don't be fooled by the first two holes which are reachable par 5's for the more advanced player. Score here early because you will appreciate a little cushion moving forward in your round.

$21 for 18 and two carts? Say no more.

It dumped rain twice and the course maintained its integrity. prehistoric animals rule the land but respect your game and do not get in the way; they are most excellent hosts.

Clubhouse offers free 10pc wings with a $20 bucket of beer and you can mix and match your choice brews...

Highly suggest taking a swing out there.

Nice layout, the proposed renovations would do wonders for this course. Apparently since it is owned by the City there is a lot of red tape involved. Which is restricting the managements budget and ability to return this property to great course in Hollywood

If you can’t play anywhere else this place will do. But I wouldn’t come back
