Palm Valley Golf Club
Rating Snapshot
About
Since opening in 1989, Palm Valley Golf Club has become a favorite among locals for the extremely affordable rates and enjoyable round. Surrounded by acres of horse farms in the heart of Nocatee, the golf course offers an idyllic and relaxing game. The nine-hole layout consists of two par 4s and seven par 3s. The golf course is ideal for beginners or for golfers looking for a casual round, but don't be mistaken: It is not a simple pitch-and-putt. Palm Valley Golf Club features well manicured target greens bordered by sand bunkers and water comes into play throughout. In addition to the golf course, Palm Valley also offers a 10,000-square-foot putting green, the largest in the area.

Good walking course
great little 9 hole course - greens were not as good as earlier this year but overall good value and practice facility.
This course used to look good
If I were to come back which im not sure if I will be or not but I will make sure I wear rain boots or go barefoot. The condition of the course is below very poor. The tee boxes and greens are either dirt or sand. The fairways are mostly giant puddles and weeds. So if you want to waste your money go right ahead but you were fair warned.
Good Practice Round
Greens were a little rough so I didnt feel bad for missing good putts - hopefully they will get better again as they were earlier this year.
Great value but course not in best condition
Great value for 9 holes but greens and tee boxes are not in good shape. Staff isn’t the friendliest but has putting green and driving range where you can hit balls off the grass.
I like the course as you really get to work on your short game. Plenty of water hazards as well to hit.
Iron play
Palm Valley GC is an institution. The owner family is a steward of the game. This course is a good way to hone your iron play in a leisurely pace.
Young and old alike can have fun.
Shills are pumping up the rating here
Course is basically cow pasture that isn’t being maintained well. Started playing here years ago as a quick short game place to practice. It’s gone downhill from then with tee boxes destroyed and greens being green only because weeds are that color. Reviews mostly confirmed that but now I see fantasy scores input to offset that.
There’s no way this place deserves anything more than 1-2 stars unless it’s for the range
Great place to practice
Great place to practice. Don't expect Great conditions for this price but sufficient for short iron practice. Greens bumpy but puttable. Guy in the shop was friendly. They also have a decent range and top tracer bays. Will go again for practice. Beats beating balls on the range.
Great for kids
Fun little course for kids to practice in a”real” course environment. For adults, it’s basically only good for wedge practices as the course is beat up. They have a good driving range, but it’s pricey.
Great Course for working kinks in game
Course condition is good and a nice walking course
Great short game practice
Palm Valley is in the best shape I have seen it in a long time. Definitely worth the price to work on your short game.
Great place
Totally enjoyed the laid back atmosphere. The greens are in great shape. Would definitely go back.
Good Day for a Walk
course in good shape overall - a little wet in areascausing mis-hits but good day
Great Tract and Condition Much Improved
I'm glad to see the course condition improving nicely and although the people playing this course are courteous and considerate overall - I would suggest to all players please fix ball marks on the greens (even if not yours), management is working hard to get and keep the course in better shape and that's just etiquette of playing the game...I'll fix them if you don't but let's all pitch in to help.
Great Place for a Casual Round
It's a smaller par 3 course that's significantly more laid back and casual. It's a great course with great people running the business. $3 beers for those who enjoy a drink on the course. Overall, a great place!

Played today as soon as the nice rain showers (first of the season) stopped. Had the course almost to myself through 5th hole. The surrounding horse farms and wildlife contributed to an amazing outing. Hope this wonderful place never changes - it’s special.
