About
The Poinciana Golf Club has recently re-opened under NEW MANAGEMENT and has done extensive renovations to the golf course including NEW GREENS.
Located in western Lake Worth, Poinciana Country Club is one of several great short courses that south Florida has to offer. At just over 4,000 yards, it is a quick and challenging test of your target golf skills. The greens are small with large breaks and there are swaying palms lining the fairways. The layout consists of par 3s that range from 103 to 172 yards and par 4s that are approximately 300 yards. There are strategically placed hazards throughout the golf course that offer good short game practice for more advanced players. Poinciana Country Club can conveniently be played in less than four hours. The golf course is still gentle enough for beginners though. It is popular amongst locals but still a well kept secret from the rest of south Florida.

Tricky greens
I dont think they have the good grass for greens.It looks like fairway grass.
Brad
Older course, not in good shape, had rangers but they didn't do anything, got the oldest cart they had I think. Had to be 15 years old or more, broken windshield. They hadn't mowed the course in 4 to 7 days or more at least I think. Not worth the money to play there. I won't be back.
Much Improved
Went back to Poinciana in Lake Worth and was happy to see that the course was vastly improved since last May when it needed work. Good course for the amateur.
Much updated....
The course has new owners and has made a great improvement on the greens.... it is wonderful as a non stressful easy experience... very good for honing your skills.. the people are helpful and working diligently to continue to upgrade this course.
Horrible Conditions
Worse course conditions iv ever seen from the tee boxes to the fairways including the greens how they stay open is beyond me
Hot Deal Users Beware!
They really don't like golf now hot deal customers and don't mind showing it. Won't go back.
Disappointed
We arrived at the course 15 minutes before our golf now booking and although there was no one anywhere in sight on the course we were told to wait for another twosome who had also booked online.They arrived (a nice husband and wife) and we began our round which can only be described as extremely slow and our usual two and a half hour round was stretched into four hours.During the round we encountered no other players in front of us or behind us.I believe we were made to wait because of our discount rate and the courses lack of business.Very disappointing.
Coming Along
The new owners are doing a nice job of restoring the course .The course is as green as I have ever seen it in the last 5 years
since I first played it.Good Job.
Rude staff
I played this course through a golf discount membership. I was early for my tee time and was told I needed to wait until my tee time. No problem there, despite sitting and observing that 0 golfers teed off in the 25 minutes that I waited. At the appointmented tee time my husband and I and a third person who joined us went to the tee box. The woman who checked us in ran over and started screaming that we couldn’t tee off yet as we had to wait for her paying customers. We paid but not directly to the course. She was rude and made the experience at the course uncomfortable.
The course was not well maintained. If the course is using third party booking agents due to poor attendance, some thought should be given to how they treat customers. I wouldn’t play the course again even if it truly was free.
Making Progress
The new owner is doing a great job of bringing the
course back from neglect.
