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.

Great shape
Golf course is in the best condition I have ever seen it
The greens are very very slow. The rest of the course is in nice shape. We need to complain to management to improve the greens. One of my friends said the greens were the slowest ever. Increase the green speed.
Old course by Donald Ross
Fairways and greens in excellent condition. Bunkers and tea boxes needs attention. Overall a pleasurable experience.
Will definitely play it again when visiting Florida
A Round to Forget
The course was pretty cool, but we had the weirdest experience in our golfing history. We came in from out of town because we heard good things about the course. Unfortunately, we had 6-somes and 8-somes in front of us holding things up. It did not become a big issue until the last few holes. They refused to get off of greens and could not walk straight because of their alcohol use. We had a police officer behind us who decided to join our group, and by the last hole he went up to them and told them to get off the green because they had been on for literally 15-20 minutes. They verbally assaulted us and almost physically assaulted the police officer. We will never play there again.
Great course
This was the first time we played this course and it was a lot of fun. Can’t wait till the next time.
A GREAT OLD COURSE!!
BACK IN THE 1979'S I USED TO PLAY THIS COURSE 2-3 TIMES A WEEK!!! MANY MEMORIES ON THIS COURSE!!! TEE BOXES....FAIRWAYS....GREENS....EXCELLENT!!!
Pleasant Day
Course in very good condition for this time of year. Greens firm and true. Each year we come back in better condition
Nice Course
Nice traditional golf course. Relatively small, interesting greens, some tightness along the way. Over seeding makes for great lies in the fairways. I’ll be back.
Nice course
Wide open fairways; small undulating greens make it fun and challenging!
Good quick round
Arrived to find a large group of "locals" on the first tee and the pro immediately took us aside to discuss possibly starting on the back 9 since we were playing as a twosome. Awesome move on his part. Played the back 9 without running into another group and found the same at the turn. A very enjoyable round. Course in great shape although greens were a tad on the slow side due to overseedng. Putts ran true but just had to put a little extra pace on them. Staff was friendly. Will play again!
Donald Ross Course at its best
Greens were firm and true. Fairways were well maintained. Played in 3 1/2 hrs. Other golfers friendly. Enjoyable day
