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 course, but they are redoing some tee boxes making the holes, not as challenging.

Will be back for sure!

Played Plantation palms for the first time as a single, was paired with two gentlemen who were very cool and we had a great time playing a round. Course was in great shape, greens have just been aerated and still rolled very well. Pretty tough course if you’re a beginner though! I will return no doubt!

I love the course. It’s very challenging, but the pace of play is just slow. I think they are letting groups out too close together and you may have to wait five minutes or so per hole which doesn’t make it a fun round. All around this is one of my favorite courses.

Ended up getting behind a bachelor party that wasn’t really interested in golfing

Course was in good condition. Did need to get a Ranger out there to help out with the slow play would play again.

Great track!

Very nice first impression. Challenging yet scorable course. Tees to greens all in good condition. Nice facilities. Friendly folks. Made a birdie on 8 and holed a 65 yard lob to save a par on the back 9. Will definitely be back to play this course.

It’s Florida golf

Water left, housing development right. Over and over. Some mounds around the greens make things moderately more interesting but none of it is all that inspiring.
