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.

Great day with friends.......

Fairways and areas around the greens were in pretty rough condition, greens also had some bad spots. i was a bit disappointed with the course conditions considering we've had some much needed rain the last couple of weeks.

Nice day of golf

We went out late Sunday and the course was packed. I believe the tee times may be too crushed together, as groups were stacked on the tee box. It made for a very slow day. Otherwise, good course and good condition. Best golf carts in the area so far.

Some good, some bad

Decent layout, greens rolled pretty well are the good.

The bad: range balls look 20 years old. No sand in traps. Front 9 played at a decent pace, back 9 took almost 3 hours, and the group in front of us only played front 9, so back should have been faster. I saw a Ranger driving around a couple times but apparently they said nothing to the four guys in front of us who are having casual conversations on the Teebox with no one in front of them, while we were wrapping up on the green behind them and waiting every hole. Nice new carts but surprised they got gas, not electric.

1 bottle of soda from bev girl: $4.25!

Place could be really good but needs to do a few things first.

Layout was very good - fairways were terrible - never had any significant amount of grass under the ball . Obviously a shortage of water . - greens rolled very well - bottom line fairways were awful - not a big advantage being in the fairway . Staff was great

Only issue that I have at Plantation Palms is the pace of play. There is no one monitoring the pace of play , which is very frustrating. Course gets a lot of play, which is great, but myself and others have not completed our rounds due to slow play.
