This is a really good short course to work your short game … the fairways are not the best ( just roll your ball ) but the greens are good , good enough … they manicure them and they roll good … there are a lot of par 3’s the par 4 are short so driver , short iron or mid iron , mid iron … how ever you want to play the hole … I am impressed with the greens … that’s the game anyway … for the money and the pace of play it’s hard to beat … far from perfect but easy in , easy out …2.5 hour round you can play 18 for the same time to play 9 at another course …yes I recommend this course…. Go find out for yourself .. go play .. I will be back. …
Cow pasture?
Actually, calling it a cow pasture is an insult to the cows...
The rating depicted on your site is a misnomer and certainly not worth the money. The front 9 has turfed greens, the directions and hole flow is catch as catch can. The back 9 is a poorly maintained executive course without notice which should be disclosed before the transaction is completed. Lastly the course and club house are antiquated at best. VERY DISSATISFIED!
We apologize for your dissatisfaction with our golf course and clubhouse. We appreciate your feedback and will take it into consideration to make improvements. Thank you for sharing your experience.
Good for Beginners
We expected better but is a good course for beginners or anyone that needs to work on their iron play and hitting small targets.
We appreciate your feedback and understand that you had higher expectations. We apologize if our course did not fully meet your needs. Thank you for taking the time to leave a review.
Overpriced
Course is worst condition I’ve ever played for $50 on 9 holes. I think the last time we played 18 and got a hot dog and a soda for $35 person 2 years ago maybe.

Poor Conditions
First and last time to play this course. More like a playing golf in a pasture than a golf course. Greens had just been aerated but not sure why the waisted the time and money. Quit after 9 holes because the groups in front of me had no clue about golf or etiquette.
Thank you for taking the time to leave a review. We apologize for the conditions of the greens and any inconvenience caused by the groups ahead of you. We appreciate your feedback and hope to provide a better experience in the future.
Okay par 3
The course is okay for someone wanting to work on there short game. Just 1 par 5 which really can be a par 4. Very short par 4s and a ton of par 3s. Tee boxs are rough and ants everywhere. Greens were mostly sand so can't get true putts. Fairways are so so but need work. Driving range is weird since you hit in the water and can not get true distance reads hitting on floating islands that move around. Don't expect much when you go.

What a dog track
By far the worst course I played in the Sarasota area. If playing off of dried up, dead grass, then this is your place. The tee boxes are trash and the fairways aren't any better. The greens, while dry, where not the worst I've played. Throw a dart at a map and you'll find a course better than the palms. Don't waste your time or money here.
Thank you for reviewing the course. Let us first start by apologizing for the poor experience you had during your visit. The current condition is by no means the standard we strive to achieve and are working diligently to improve the course. Thank you for playing and we hope to see you again soon.
The Palms
Over priced and a very poor excuse of a golf course.
