The Palms Golf Club At Forest Lakes

This was my home course when I played golf in high school and now that I’m all grown up and retired in my hometown I play this course almost once a week. It is a reboot of the original Forest Lakes golf course and the back nine has I believe six par threes possibly seven but it’s a nice course to get out and get a quick 18 in. My estimation in playing 18 holes out there with decent pace of play is about 2 1/2 hours to two hours 45 minutes. The staff at the clubhouse is very friendly and the pricing is fair for this area.

Grass dead on some greens. Water hazards not clearly marked. Tee boxes in terrible condition. Sand traps very hard.

We only play nine holes. You can’t beat this deal. The course can be very challenging if you play from the tips.

It’s close to home and you can’t beat the price. Great app to get in a quick 9.

The course was the perfect choice for the beginners Golfers I was playing with. It’s a perfect course to learn how to play golf.

Had a tee time… got there 30 people waiting to tee off!! No one told us heavy leagues on Tuesday the 12th.

Greens were terrible. Fairways not much better....10-18 is basically a pitch and putt. NOt great and would never go back.

I never golfed that day because it rained and we got canceled another day, I hope to play there with my wife I’ll let you know

This place is in worse shape than an average Florida lawn. Starter was oblivious to the group supposedly finishing a shotgun scramble event. There was a two hole gap but the starter refused to let us go. Then we watched a player in that group we were waiting on go back from the fairway and hit another tee shot.

The price of a Diet Coke (can) went up from $3.50 to $3.75 after the first 9 holes.

Skip this one even at a low price.

Open under new management. They are fixing the course to get up to par.

Bring a few extra balls if you intend to challenge this little executive layout. There are numerous ditches and lakes that are hungry for balls. Its a very old course that is lacking funds for proper maintenance built into a neighborhood. I've played this course for many years and only come back because it's CHEAP and it shows it. Whatever you do, don't hit driver off #1 tee. Nothing on the course is in great condition, greens, traps,fairways or tees. Even saying all the bad things, it's still golf and a fun layout to play, if you are not expecting anyway near pristine conditions. Like I said, it's cheap, and the starter, cart guy, JJ is as nice as you will find. They also give a military discount, if you ask for it.
