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.

Goat track
No way that anyone says the greens are good. I hate to be really negative but this course is pitiful….would be better if they just let the grass grow and stopped playing golf. No way this course can afford to operate much longer.
Challenge
Fairways unpredictable greens very fast.. it was a lot of fun bring your A game
Friendly, short, slow
First time playing. The staff is incredibly nice. 2nd tee-time off this AM. Waited on every tee box. Waited on every fairway. Miserable. 1 foursome in front of us that simply took forever to do anything. Left their carts parked in front of the greens so even when they putted out they were still in the way. Terrible group. No clue about golf etiquette. The course was pretty, the fairways and traps were well maintained. The greens were very nice and rolled true. The length was tough. I used my Driver and nothing longer than a 9 iron all day.
Enjoy for your first game of the season.
The course was not what we expected. It was dry and had a lot of burned patches. The greens were in great shape tho.
Golf course
Great golf course to play if you’re 20 and above handicap to have fun
9 holes
Tee boxes beat up. Fairways good greens tricky and challenging.
Great day for golf
Always is nice to play a round of golf here. The staff is friendly and the course is in good conditions. The greens and fairways are well maintained. Will play again here.
Nothing to write home about
The course was not in good condition. Lots of weeds in the fairways and the turf was thin and bare in spots. Greens were fast but just average. It isn’t worth more than $50
A Little Less than Good
Course was in ok, condition only. Fairways were fairly thin in many areas. This course will probably play better when the weather gets a bit better, but today it was a bit dissappointing.
What a great course!
We found this course be in amazing shape and the pace of play was awesome. The greens were in exceptional sharpe. Some fun challenges with the water but nothing to hard! We plan on playing this course again soon. Great value for the cost!
Just Okay
much better courses in the area for the price. everything was dead. very dusty and dirty
Exemplary Staff and Course
Great course. Staff members very helpful and polite. Recommend!
Great course
I loved this course from start to finish. Definitely a relaxing feel to it, don't feel as rushed when playing. Im not a crazy experienced golfer, but I think this course helped me to learn strengths and weakness to sharpen my game. Staff was very eager to help and kept everything up to a good standard. I would definitely come back
Great course, even better staff
Played this course a few times now and you can tell their really re-investing into the course how they should be. Conditions improve every time I play and the staff continues to be helpful and courteous. Course offers some great hole layouts and challenging shots off the tee and approach to green. Greens roll true and its overall a fun course to play. Will continue to comeback here, the value can't be beat.
Preferred Place to Play
As a senior, this course is just the right length. Takes about 3 hours to play. Hate the water holes, but that's just me
