Vista Plantation Golf Club is an Arthur Hills-designed course that is conveniently located near all of Vero Beach's attractions. The course is just a short drive from the scenic beaches, which are part of Florida's Treasure Coast. The course is compact but challenging with small, fast greens and tight fairways. Water hazards also come into play on a few holes. The golf course is challenging enough for avid players yet forgiving enough for high handicappers to approach with confidence. It's a player-friendly layout that is great for beginners and seniors. Though the golf course may not require distance, your short game skills will be put to the test. There is not only water but also numerous strategically placed bunkers. Vista Plantation is a golf course that will make you think and you'll also need to be accurate.

Hands Down, Our Favorite

From the warm, southern hospitality of the starters (Bob and his “boss”), to the flexibility of the front staff in scheduling and tee-times, this course is both beautiful inside and out! My only regret is that we didn’t sooner and more often! I messed up on my booking on GolfNow and booked a tee time on the wrong day. One call and a very pleasant conversation with management fixed my mistake and gave us the same tee time for the next day… at the same hot deal rate! Thank you ladies! I can’t say enough about this course, it really is a wonderful, challenging course filled with water that demands shot planning and accuracy. If, when we are ever in Vero Beach again, this may be the only golf course we play, it was that good! Thank you Vista Plantation for a memorable round. In God’s good timing, we’ll be back!

P.s. Thanks Bob for the beach recommendation! You are right, that was the perfect beach!!! Thanks for helping us complete our perfect day in Vero Beach!!!

Train your Marshals, player assistants etc!

It is inexcusable for an employee to cut

Into the fairway and proceed to hawk golf balls!!! I was taking a couple practice swings the set to hit my shot and this “players assistant” (not) cuts through the fairway and hawks balls out of the pond.I wait a couple

Minutes . He looks up at me a couple times and resumes. So I hit aiming left so as not to hit him. Ball hits cart path and careens onto practice range tees and almost hits a golfer there.

There is no excuse

For this type of action by any course employee.

Paired playing partner was a great guy.

. A much younger

Guy than I . I have played the venues he

Is now performing at.! We enjoyed the camaraderie and also enjoyed the course and the golf!

Relaxing and tidy.

It was a windy but fun day on the occasion we played. The course was well maintained and a very tidy layout. A nice place to enjoy the weather and brush up my iron play. Would definitely go back for another round.

Pleasant surprise

When I booked it I didn’t realize it was glorified par 3 course. After I noticed it was a Par 62, I had little excitement about playing, however I was pleasantly surprised once we started. The practice green is extremely helpful with preparing for the subtle breaks and speed of the greens. The staff treated us with dignity and respect. They were excited to tell us about the course and offer any tips they could to help us enjoy the experience. I will definitely play again the next time I’m in town.

Golf nut

Very nice course people are very nice also especially the starter.A lot of water on the right side of every Tee box and greens are very fast. One complaint is there is only one water station on the whole course and it was broken. Hopefully they will fix it and add another one. Personally I would never have a water hazard on the first hole, not good to keep play moving and people including myself have trouble enough on the first hole
