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.

Beautiful January Day on the Course

Fabulous sunny weather in January. Fairways were green, but thick. Greens the same. Not very crowded.

A nice round and bargain.

Holiday Crowded

Should have had a Marshall out to keep the flow going especially on a Holiday Golf Day. Other than that it was nice day to be out hitting the links.

Greens were slow.

The course layout is fantastic. A few holes you need to play at least once before you have a chance to score, cool holes but you need to know have course knowledge.

The greens were pretty slow
