Palatka Golf Club

The course is ok. The greens are in terrible condition,

Good layout with some hills .

Last 3 times I have played there it was slow I mean real slow. I guess that's what to expect with a course in as great shape as this one is, but it was real slow. Oh I just came up with a great idea get a Ranger and sent them out there and at least try and fix the problem.

It is a true Donald Ross track. Greens have the signature rolls and diabolical breaks. You can see how he blended the course into the landscape to layout the track. Course is in transition from winter to spring, the the greens were rolling true and fast. I would recommend an early tee time to get the best experience. Tees and fairways are filling in and will most likely be in great shape in a few more weeks.

If you step back and take in each shot, you will get the picture that Ross was trying for.

I will be back!

I discovered this gem a few years ago and it is my go to course. Fairways are in great shape, Most of the greens are too! You won’t find a better value around the area - And be sure to have hot dog At the bar after your round!

First time playing here and we used a hot deals rate, 2 golfers and we were paired with a single for the first 9. Really nice course layout; well marked and you go by the clubhouse between 5-6 before the turn which is nice for a bathroom break. As a female golfer this is big for me! Lol as for the course itself, tee boxes were standard, some unevenness but nothing terrible. Also well marked. Greens were fast and very turtle backed, making 1-2 putts turn into 3-4. Some striping on the greens from course work I’d guess, but for novice golfers like myself and my husband we had a great time. People in the clubhouse as well as the starter were all very nice and got us going quickly. Would definitely go back!

A nice municipal type course, great for getting your confidence back. The course is not particularly challenging, with a few quirky things, like a driving range where you hit balls into a pond, but at least they have a driving range.

Love the fairways, friendly staff. Several greens still in rough shape.

It was pouring down rain and they would not close the course. There was only one foursome on the entire course during our entire round. They must have also booked through Golfnow and unable to get their money back unless the course was closed. Very unfriendly policy by Golfnow. I will never book through Golfnow again.

I was paired with another golf now player. We shared the same amount of ability. He "guided" me through the course as he'd played it previously. Had a great time playing a hundred years old course. Fair but strict if you have par mind. Will be playing it again, soon.

Whenever our friends from South Carolina come to Florida they want to play this course. He is a greens man at TPC Myrtle Beach. He said they over seeded the fairways with rye and hopes that when it dies off as it gets warmer the conditions don’t go downhill.

I’ve been visiting Palatka off and on for a few years now, apart from some minor details the course conditions were in great shape and as always friendly staff.

The course was as lush as I have seen it in a long time. I stopped playing here a while ago when they had irrigation system issues.

Happy to report the course is in the best condition in years.
