About
Neighbor to the beautiful Ravine State Gardens, Palatka Golf Club offers a game that is as scenic as it is entertaining. Designed by Donald Ross in 1925, the golf course was created with all skill levels of golfers in mind. The layout is player friendly, but there are still many challenging elements to keep golfers on their toes, including Ross' signature "turtleback" greens. There are also numerous bunkers fiercely guarding the greens. The signature hole of the course is the par-3 third. This 188-yard hole is a test of accuracy, requiring a difficult tee shot to a well bunkered green. Palatka Golf Club also offers a unique aqua driving range for golfers to use.

Nice Spring Day
Quick round for a twosome midweek. Fun course, greens and tees need some work.
Overall a good day of golf.
Rye is gone, greens mostly dirt for now
Winter grass all dead, no summer grass grown in on greens, they are mostly dirt, not even sanded to be smoothed. Just hard pan like concrete. Play short and bounce up because greens will not hold most approach shots. Fairways are fine. Tee boxes fair but not great. Not flat and pretty hacked up, but better than the greens. At least they had ice and water in all of the coolers, which is good.
Ok Course
Little irritated because there where not that many people out playing so I asked the front counter guy if I could have my own cart so I could get around the course a little faster. Not so friendly of a response “ you could pay 20 dollars for it “ and then some smug response when I said I don’t think so and walked out. As far as the course tees could have used a cut, fairways were in real good shape, greens looked really nice but just a bit on the slow side. Overall it is a nice municipal golf course but as you can tell I am whining about the counter help. I will get over it and play again.
WOW
All I have to say is wow. This place was great. Greens were full and yes a true. Maybe a touch on the slower side but great. So the fairways were way better than I expected. They had grass and not just sand. It was nice seeing a divot fly. Then to the tee boxes. I would say only 1 box needed attention and 17 others were in great shape. Course layout was from the 1920's but original Donald Ross, lfg. The driving range was into a lake also. So for that I'm making this my home course.
Beautiful Day in Palatka
A fabulous spring day to play golf. Tees were rough, some greens need work, but fairways were decent. Lots of players mid morning so it wasn't a speedy round with lots of wait time.
Overall, a fun day.
Balls flying all over the place
Keep your head down.
A 5 some and 6some with a lotta beer were out in front on a weekend….. terribly d slow play and no Marshall
Enjoyable day
Course is dry as all are now. Tee boxes need more grass. Greens have patches in them but still putt true. Tight course and need to be aware of errant balls from other holes. Today had Joe as a starter and even though very busy day he did an excellent job. Today made foursomes for all golfers and that greatly improved pace of play Often let singles and twosomes out which frustrates them to behind foursomes even when that group is playing in regulation time . Each year course appears to be improved
