About
Forest Oaks Golf Club in Lake Worth is a public course that is still one of south Florida's best-kept secrets despite having good conditions and affordable rates. The golf course offers an enjoyable round that is challenging but playable. Opened in the 1970s, it has a classic layout that showcases what Florida golf courses are known for. It is a tight layout that requires a fair amount of accuracy but beginners won't feel too out of their league. The layout offers an excellent transition from an executive course. It measures less than 6,000 yards, offering a quick and enjoyable round for more advanced players. Forest Oaks G.C. offers the quality and conditions of a country club course but the friendly and casual atmosphere of a public facility.

South Florida Classic Short Course
Although in mediocre condition, this classic short course (5883 tips) is very challenging with many thin landing areas for drives.
Unable to hit Driver on many holes, you must negotiate your way around with every club in the bag. A very good value at $45 for 18-holes
Great Day of Golf
Professional and friendly staff. Outstanding greens. Very challenging fairways. Tight lies on some areas but playable. A must play for low and high handicap players. Best rates in Palm Beach County.
Rainy day
Always professional and friendly staff. Outstanding greens, lots improvement on tee boxes. . Greens were slow today due to the wet conditions. Other wise still fun and challenging day of golf. Low and high handicap players come and challenge yourself on this course. Best rates in town.
Goodgolfcourse
Narrow but nice.
First time we played there.
Tee Off and Green are in perfect condition
Staff were very attentive
Thank you for the nice day
Happy wife happy life...Super tight, with condos and houses lining the fairways
The fairways are definitely in rough shape I don’t know how the greens are so good. This is a great place for beginners or someone that hits a ball very straight because I’m sure I hit well I know I hit one condo and I put one into the highway and maybe hit a car on one of the other fairways in the parking lot. Fortunately my wife was hitting the crap out of the ball made her happy makes me happy, happy wife happy life
Fun round
Greens in excellent shape considering heat and dryness. Staff is excellent, always accommodating and friendly. Don’t go looking for your lost balls in the thick patches of brush. There are snakes in there. Also gators in the streams!
Excellent pace of play!
Finished to play after 3 hours!
Greens OK, but hard grass ( maybe some weed incrusted).
Fairways like very basic , low ''hair'' grass.. need more love...
Very tight fairways (we played the blue),
don't forget to stay in ... there's a lot of danger nearby!
Small family old time clubhouse, but a good terrace for a beer!
Great day of Golf
Always professional and friendly staff, excellent pace of play. Outstanding greens, some places tight lies but playable. Golf course very challenging but fun. A must play for any high and low handicap players.
