Plantation Palms Golf Club
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.

Terrible staff
guy at the front desk told me i was too early for my tee time 45 mins before my tee time and refused to give me a cart key to get to the range and when i asked why i wasn’t allowed to have a cart key after already paying for my golf he continued to tell me i was too early for my tee time to check in
Beat Bang 4 Buck Around
Great course layout and greens/fairways in great shape, best value I have seen since being in the Tampa area.
Not recommending play at present.
I know we have had a tremendous amount of rain but has been dry for a couple of days and some areas were extremely wet. Should have been a discount for the play. It wasn’t a real pleasant experience.
Not worth the $ and all I paid was $14
I would not recommend this course at all...I’m not even sure how they’re still in business...the greens were more sand than grass, the course design is poor, and they didn’t even have the black markers on the tee box...I’m not the beat golfer but I enjoy the extra challenge of playing from the longest tee.
The course is smack dab in the middle of a residential community so the fairways are super narrow and there were random hazards of y’all grass for no reason...
I didn’t even get a chance to play the back 9 because they had a high school competition...they gave me a $7 credit and I threw it away...
No Thanks
At $21 the was still not a value. The fairways are very thin & areas around the greens are very bad. Course workers are very disruptive, at one point a guy simply parked on a green as we played up. At their normal pricing $35 & up you can fine WAY better options.
Great Track Good Challenge
I really like this track! Good layout can be quite challenging if you make a couple mistakes. Clubhouse is really nice too! Good track definitely worth the drive! Even though it was little wet today The course was in good shape and the greens rolled well.
Nice layout
Great layout makes you use all the club's in the bag. Grass needs to be cut but very wet. I look forward to playing this course when it dries out
Progressing
Plantation Palms is progressing. This last round I played, I noticed that they had fixed a few of the troubled bunkers, and the greens were rolling very nice. Drainage continues to be an issue but the rain has helped the courses greens and fairways tremendously.
Horrible course condition
Played it twice, so far its getting worst, greens are great, but the rest well it swampy, worst then last time
This time the fairway is swap you can loose a shoe and good luck finding your ball will disappear in the mud
Never again
I booked two tee times and had one player cancel at the last minute, two weeks later I was told by golf now that I was being charged for that one spot that wasn't used. No one at the course said anything about not having the eighth player, never mentioned it or said at the time I would be charged. I will never play there again and I advise anyone that reads this review to avoid this course if that is how they are going to treat their customers. I'm sure I'm not alone in having someone in the group drop out last minute and are unable to fill the spot. I'll let everyone in my group know about this and to have them spread the word about this. Never again will I golf here and I would never recommend that anyone golf there.
Nine was enough
This course is very close to being very competetive with other bay area courses. Fun layout and a varety of challenges on each hole. The staff, including the starter, is courteous and attentive. The course suffers from poor/insufficient drainage. First impression at driving range is standing water and muddy lies...The greens were punched maybe a week earlier but still were pocked enough to deflect the ball. No one appears to repair thier ball marks - I fixed 3-4 on each green. The bunkers were washed out with weeds and debris throughout. Looking forward to seeing this place again in the fall.
Great Course
Challenging course with fast greens. The staff here is phenomenal also!
Don’t waste your money!
I’m no one to bash a course but this place is absolutely terrible. I like the layout of the course but after that it’s all down hill. Grass is out of control, terrible lies whether you are in the fairway or not. Nothing but mud around all greens. Mud and grass in every sandpit. It’s god awful. The greens were god awful too. You can find way better courses for the same price. As an avid golfer I’ve played some bad courses but this tops it all and for over 30 dollars a round. The reviews of this course are so false. I tried this course out because of the reviews. It’s a lie. The practice range is nice but that’s it !
