Palatka Golf Club

It was amazing to play this classic Donal Ross design! The layout is original and green complexes are classic Ross! A really fun layout on a unique property.

Such a shame that the course conditions are so poor. Bunkers are in bad shape....tee decks are poor, greens have funky different and uneven grasses growing on them. This course would be such a gem with some reasonable upkeep. Staff was great but can't cover up the deficiencies.

This is a bit of a hidden gem I think. $35 including a cart is very reasonable. The course is very playable and pleasant. Pace was very good and we could play at our pace even though there were only 2 of us. Having a guy playing solo behind us (with his dog), and then a couple behind him (with their toddler) were 2 things we’d never seen before on a golf course, but hey, we’re in Florida….so, let’s just roll with it. Tee boxes were a little rough as were most greens, but all in all it was a decent day of golf.

The staff were absolutely the friendliest an knowledgeable people to work with enjoy speaking to them as much as playing well almost 😂

Although the greens were pretty rough, the wide open course was green and a really fun round to play. The staff was extremely friendly, and it was priced well with the coupon app. A beautiful area, I wouldn’t necessarily travel hours to play here, but as we passed through, it was a great find! Would recommend or play here again, if in the area.

I have been playing golf for 40+ years and have played hundreds of courses. The condition of this course is well within my bottom 5 and I've can't think of any that are worse. Tee boxes overgrown, fairways burnt out and a temporary green that was on par with the rest. The slowest greens I think I've ever played. I can't understand why these greens are so slow, they're cut down to dirt practically, but the ball goes about half as far as on a decent green.

This course should be free to play until it gets sorted out.

The course is a challenge with lots of hills and bends. Considering a hurricane had just gone through a few days before it was in great shape.

It could be great if it was taken better care of. Particularly the 1st hole without grass and the 12th hole (par 3) which is essentially ALL dirt are the main offenders. The grass was pretty long, but its summer in FL, so ill give them a break. Aside from that, its a fun course and I recommend it.

Other than the pace of play being a little slow. Nice place. Staff was very friendly. Restaurant was nice. I’ll be back for sure.

We love the course and got our round in before the rain

The staff wasn't friendly and was very scarce. The guy in the pro shop acted as if he hated his job. There's no beverage cart service on the course but the restaurant bar area was closed by the time we got to hole 9. We had a late tee time but still if there's players on the course and you're taking tee-times you should have the staff and amenities to service your guests.

The grass in the rough was so high I couldn’t find my balls other than that it wasn’t so bad. They could probably spray for bugs bc I have never concentrated so hard on not getting bugs in my ears and everything else than I did Sunday. Overall I wish the rough had been cut down a little bit I get it it’s the rough but it was kind of bad. Would like to come back in the winter months and give it another try.
