Palatka Golf Club

Great layout, with various doglegs, challenging par 3's and roundtop greens. Laid back atmosphere with a good pace of play. Foursome finished in 3.5 hours. Tee boxes were in need of repair, bare spots with very sparse grass. Fairways were very dry, good for long drives...but in need of water. Greens were very difficult to putt on. Bare spots and sandy. Area around bunkers were loaded with weeds and clover. Bunkers were actually pretty good. Nice golf course but needs work.

I like this course and its layout, however it’s in dire need a TLC. Very dry, fairways brown and flat, most of the greens in sad shape, dry. Tee boxes mostly dirt. But I will go back, rains will help as weather changes.

Greens rolled true and were fairly quick. Fairways were nice in the middle but dry and candy around edges. A few greens did not have good grass for pitch shots. Overall, nice layout, good value. Pace was slow, but there was a local tournament.

The course is not a 4 star rating as was stated by several reviews. 3 at best. The greens were in horrible conditions with a lot of dead grass and black spots. The tee boxes and fairways were in poor condition. I did however enjoy the layout. With some serious TLC, it could become a great course!

Straightforward course with some challenges, but many opportunities to post a good score. Greens need a little work, but rolled pretty well overall.

As with many other courses the greens have some rough spots. This year seems to be a bit more rough than past years for this and other courses such as Southampton and Palm Harbor as well

Fairways are very good here - in fact they are the best for the money by far.

Challenging Donald Ross layout - first few holes are tough

I strongly recommend the grilled hot dog in the bar after your round !!

You will not be disappointed playing here. Not a long course but unique to North Florida with the elevation changes and challenging greens. A fun course at a good price

I really enjoy this track. Play every time I am in town. Greens had a couple rough spots, but they were bringing them back in. I always play early so pace is good, but appears middle of day slows down. Staff very friendly. Lots of twist and turns on the course. Par 3s are probably the most challenging holes that they have.

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!
