Poinciana Country Club
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.

16 green in the morning, beautiful! Photo submitted by drsedlack on 01/04/2019
Are we there yet
Played front nine in 1 hour ,but upon arriving at #10
we found 3 foursomes and a single ahead of us ,whom
we had not seen for the previous 9 holes. The back nine took 2 hours to play and featured long waits between shots.A definite crowd control solution
which made our day terrible.
Over run with hackers
Very overcrowded and slow play, suspect there were too many teetimes made. Course was in fair condition at the best, lots of weeds on the grains and lots of bare spots in the fairways
Good course for practice the irons
It has been a very special day for me.After 45 years i did not only one but two holes in one.I did it on hole no 7 and hole 17.I will always remember that day.
We played last year and hoped things would be better this year. It didn't happened.
There are too many other nice courses to play in Greenacres.
Poinciana
Needs lot of work lay out is good but greens are poor not terrible for hot deal
good course for the price
great day and pleasant to play. some difficulty on par 4 and par 5
Alignment from the tees
On the par 3's be very care with your alignment. Also the greens are currently in poor condition but hopefully this will improve in the near future.
The greens needs a lot of love, poorly maintain.

This golf course is worst than last year. We will not go back.
horrible!
Not maintained at all, horrible course for the money.
Could be a fun little course
The greens were in pretty rough shape with the exception of very few. Fairways were in decent shape as were the bunkers. Not a very difficult course as it is extremely short.
Don't waste your time or money
Course is in horrible condition, much like playing in a cow pasture. way to easy and you'd have a better time playing putt putt
awlful greens
every green was under seeded. The bounced and were not true. We were disappointed in the condition of every green.
Poinciana Golf Club, noon time tee time
The greens were in very nice shape. The fairways were mostly good but there were isolated burned out spots where watering had been lacking. The rough has many areas where the grass was lacking and a shot from the rough was either from coarse turf or hardpan. The staff is exceptionally friendly and accommodating.
nice short course. not worth much more
have played course before, a nice short course to play, not to difficult
this is the absolute worse golf course in Palm Beach county on so many levels.
Rude starter/staff. Terrible pace (3 carts per tee box), the worst course conditions Ive seen. fairways and greens essentially sand . On the 18th hole- Power lines cross directly in front of the tee box (i kid you not). To each his own, but this course was definitely a bad experience for me.
The course had alot of sand.
OK, for older course,greens were kinda slow and bumby.
