About
Plantation Palms Golf Club, designed by David Harman, provides every Tampa golfer with a challenging and rewarding golf experience. The links-style design starts with a welcoming par 5, and then slowly steps up with a mixture of strong par 3s. Just 10 minutes north of Tampa, this course was carved a 400-acre citrus grove that slopes from west to east, providing interesting elevation changes. Water is in play on 17 of 18 holes. Plantation Palms Golf Club has an attractive framing of greens by the use of pine trees, water and large snow-white sand traps. The true-rolling elevated greens have good movement and are a challenge for golfers.

Continues to impy
PP is continuing to improve and starting to come back to form. You can tell management has invested and it was a good experience this last weekend. Yes, it can be busy. But that will thin out after peak season and with some rain it should continue to get better. Good value for the area. Look forward to playing again.
Wow
The friendliest course staff I have ever had the pleasure of speaking with combined with excellent conditions and a great price make PP a must play when in the area!
Challenging with fast greens & friendly staff
We were staying overnight in town, wanted to get a round in before returning home. Found this place just north of us. Course was in very good shape, greens were rolled and fast, no bare patches. Fairways were green and thin, rough was brown with thicker. We received a course book for free, it showed many greens protected with sand traps. However, many were removed and were just holes of rough. Had these traps remained, the course would have played tougher. Driving range was perfect and on the way to hole #1. $15 gets you a large bucket close to 60 balls! Staff very friendly. Starter was helpful with tips about the course. There is even a mini-golf course just before you get to #1. The restaurant connected to the Pro Shop is Mulligans. We did not eat there but several of the locals playing after us raved out it. The cart lady met us on the front and back – she was friendly as well. The four of us enjoyed the challenging layout, especially the back nine. We all agreed we would like to return and play again. Maybe next year !!!
Excellent Value
I played this course in 2006 when it was pretty much brand new. Now 18 years later I can say that this course has matured very well. Challenging layout, good fairways and bunkers, very fast true greens, GPS carts, good practice range, very friendly staff, and acceptable pace of play. Kind of a long drive from Tampa Bay, but this course is worth it. Excellent value.
Overpriced
Driving range not open for our tee time, fairways were sparce and very wet,some areas were muddy. Off the fairway hardly any grass very wet area like playing off soft mud. Pace of play was slow greens were average.
This is not a 4 star course
This course looks good from a distance. However, when you are on the course it needs some work. Fairways were spotty & green were not very good. Although they were fast they need attention. The tee boxes were in better condition than the fairways. The layout of this course is very nice. This course is probably worth $30!
Abysmal Pace
The pace of play was worse than I’ve seen it ever before. I know the snowbirds are down here but etiquette has got to start being enforced. Guys hitting 3 and 4 balls off the tee 2 or three shots from same spot on the fairways meanwhile we are getting hit into hole after hole. This round was really rough there were times we had 8-9 minutes between swings
Best in the Area
Played this course for the second time today on my stay in Tampa. Definitely a favorite. Great carts, pro shop, bar, range and practice green. Wide landing areas, good par 3’s, green fairways- a tad thin right now, very good tee boxes and greens that hold. A very fun, fair and challenging track. Don’t miss if you are in the area. You will be glad you did.
