This course needs careful planning

A challenging layout due to many water hazards that requires careful planning to be fun. Some uncut tees and roughed up greens. This does not match the price point.

Great course reservation mix up

Everything with the course was great but the reservation I made through golf now was for the Golden Palm course and when we arrived on property they couldn’t accommodate our group on that course. They put us on Red Tiger which was a good course just not what I reserved. They claimed it was a glitch that they couldn’t fix. All in all it was a good experience but just annoyed that I had to play a course that I didn’t chose

Great course, medicore greens

The greens were not in good shape for it being a high-end, luxury establishment. The fairways were great, tee boxes were mostly in good shape, but a lot of dead grass, ball marks, divots that were unfixed, etc. And for whatever reason, it looked as though the golfers were dragging their shoes on numerous greens because the grass was not in great shape.

Made a day of it

$20 for self parking w/ free shuttle to bag drop. Tee boxes were in rough shape but fairways and greens were great. Tough pin placement on almost every hole which made it a lot of fun for the short game player. Overall it’s a great course (golden palms) and a lot of fun to play but do plan on spending some extra money for parking etc. and plan for a relaxing day the property is huge and it’s not a place for a fast in and out round it’s more an experience.

Staff were extremely friendly and helpful. Course conditions were very good - with the exception of a couple of tee boxes. Greens were very quick and rolled true. Range balls were included and the range facility was very nice, Note the day I played you hit off a mat.

Beginner that loved Golden Palm!

As a new golfer, I was honestly a bit intimidated heading to the Golden Palm Course at Trump National Golf Club. The course has such a prestigious reputation, and I wasn’t sure if my skills would measure up. But from the moment I arrived, I was put at ease by the friendly, professional staff who made me feel right at home.

The Golden Palm Course turned out to be challenging yet very approachable for someone like me. The layout is absolutely stunning, and while there are some tough holes, the design of the course gives you room to breathe. I didn’t feel overwhelmed, even though there were moments where I had to really think about my shots. There are enough forgiving areas and shorter holes where I was able to take my time and enjoy the game. The fairways are beautifully maintained, and the greens are true, so it’s easy to see where your ball is going, even if your swing isn’t perfect just yet.

The strategic design of the course makes it enjoyable for golfers at any level. I never felt pressured to keep up with faster players, and I actually learned a lot just by soaking in the course and watching how others played. The atmosphere at Trump National is welcoming, and the staff is more than happy to give tips or advice, which made me feel supported throughout my round.

And let me not forget the views—this place is gorgeous! The scenery is truly breathtaking, and I found myself just enjoying the experience of being out there, no matter how my game was going. After the round, I was able to relax in the beautiful clubhouse, which offered a great place to unwind and reflect on the day.

In short, the Golden Palm Course is perfect for golfers of all skill levels, even if you're just starting out like me. It's a beautiful, challenging, yet approachable course, and I’m already looking forward to my next round there. If you’re a new golfer and feeling intimidated, don’t be—it’s an experience you’ll remember for years to come.

Rainy South Florida Day

What can I say? This course was amazing. The entire setup was great. We had a downpour ridden afternoon round and the course held up beautifully. It was a tough but fair layout with a lot of risk/reward tee shots. The amenities were great.
