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.

I will be returning

I am an out of towner and jumping around playing different numerous courses. As far as course conditions,nice greens, decent fairways, good tee boxes and pace of play I’d recommend putting this on your list of don’t miss playing courses. It ranks up as one of the better and more fun ones I’ve played since being in the Tampa area for 2 weeks. Nice carts also made for a good experience. Good bang for your buck using the Tee Off app!

Poor conditions

Poor conditions for the price. Did not like the layout of the course. Some holes were very difficult for the average golfer. I won’t be back.

Love the layout

But for $86 I’d expect a better set of conditions. There’s definitely work being done and the course is clearly cared for. Just trying to understand where these rates come from. Sunday morning relatively empty so maybe $60 gets more play? Not sure but great layout average conditions and way too high of a cost.

Nice

Great layout. Nice slope and tree lined fairways, a bit muddy after a few rainy days but worth the drive!

Much improved

I had heard that PP was getting better due to continued improvements to the course. After playing Sunday I was definitely impressed with the changes. The course has always had a great lay out. Greens were in good shape and pace was good. You can see that heavy rain could have an impact for sure, but it’s been dry and course played well. Put it in your rotation and kudos to PP for the strong steps forward.

Slowest round in history

Course is nice and the employees are fantastic. Unfortunately, this club has a bunch of members that screw around ruin it for everyone else. 3.5 hours to get through 9 holes because of these chuckleheads. Ended up playing first 9 again to avoid then. 5.5 hours is brutal overall. Club needs to address this ASAP.
