Located in South County Regional Park, Osprey Point Golf Club offers the first course in Florida to be designated as an Audubon International Classic Signature Golf Course. You would never be able to tell from looking at it now, but the site was farmland before it was used for shellrock mining and then abandoned. The landscape had been overgrown but the Parks and Rec Department of Palm Beach County transformed it into a lush and scenic course. The golf course is a 27-hole layout that can be played in three different 18-hole combinations. All of the tees, greens, and fairways feature environmentally friendly Seashore Paspalum. The Hawk/Falcom combination has a gently rolling landscape enhanced with native vegetation. The elevation changes are subtle but they still provide a few tricky lies.

Great public course

This is one of the nicest and best public/municipal courses I have played. The fairways and tee boxes were in near perfect condition. And the greens were great. Nice and smooth and a good speed for regular golfers. The sand traps on the first 9 were full of water. And I was cart path only on 5 holes. But we had a pretty heavy rain the night before. The course is built up against the Everglades and it is always present. The fairways are wide enough. But off the fairway isn’t in the trees with a chance to punch out. Off the fairway is completely gone. The wind also plays a huge factor in the course. They have a great practice facility and the staff was nice enough. Pace of play was right at 4 hours and it’s pretty much always busy. Really a great value for just over $40 that I paid to play. I’m sure it’s much more in the spring/winter/fall. But if you’re in the area I don’t think you be disappointed in this course. I played the combination of the Hawk and Raven 9s and loved it. The Falcon 9 is currently closed.

PBC public golf courses best!

If you join the PBC frequent player membership, you get 4 options for golf (Okeeheelee, Park Ridge, Southwinds and Osprey Point). I'll have to say that Osprey Point is the best of the four options. IMHO it is the flagship course. This was my first time playing at Osprey Point. I got a chance to play the Hawk/Raven combination. It was a humbling experience. My first nine at the Hawk I was playing lights out, only shooting 3 over par, then the back nine at Raven brought me back down to reality and ate my lunch. Raven is a lot tougher, with a stretch of 4 holes that are very tight, that if you don't want to take your medicine and play for bogey golf, they will make you pay and I sure did. Overall, the golf complex and golf courses are very pretty, super well manicured and in excellent shape. The course gets a lot of traffic as you can see from the ball mark repairs on the greens, which oh by the way, people need to be given lessons on how to repair ball marks. Nonetheless, the course is perfect tee to green. It's a 5-star course at a great price. Good luck getting a decent tee time in the morning as it is very coveted. I was told Falcon was not open because it's getting aerated. I loved the fact that they can aerate one of the nines while the other two nines are unaffected and open for play. I can't wait to return and take on the Raven challenge again and try out Falcon for the first time.

Best public course around!

Absolutely pristine from tee to green! Manicured, tight lies, beautiful views and good pace of play. I could play here everyday. 3- 9 hole courses the practice greens just as nice as the courses. Friendly staff excellent amenities. It’s a little tight for inexperienced players but the excellent conditions are very player friendly. I would recommend to anyone! It’s a very high demand course and tough to get a t-time but if you can get on you’ll definitely want to come back again and again. Zen golf for me and best public course in south Florida!

Great value, beautiful course

Audobon Course surrounded by Florida wildlife. Great conditions.. hot deal has the course at under $30. One of the rangers was telling us the course had a new Super and the course will look even nicer come wintertime.

Overall, great course. Will definitely make the drive up to play again.

The greens were aerated and the grass was a lot longer than usual. Once it’s cut and the holes fill in the course is definitely worth playing .

Nice course but not for hot summer days

This otherwise a beautiful golf course is not the best to play during hot summer days. There are no shades throughout the course to get some necessary breaks from hot scorching suns! Facilities are great. The course conditions are typically great, though the greens were not the usual fine conditions due to aeration performed only recently. Bring your golf umbrella and a plenty of cold drinks if you want to enjoy this nice course during hot sunny days.

Well worth the drive

I live in Miami Beach, so for me this was an hour+ drive. I was able to get a hot deal that made it worth giving this track a shot. Im so glad I did. I will start with my 3 minor gripes. 1) driving range was closed. Tough to get loose after an hour drive. Online showed it was open. 2) they would not entertain the option of solo riding. I was a single and sharing the cart with a stranger is always just a bit uncomfortable. That said, Walt was awesome and made it not too bad. 3) the hawk 9 has no bathrooms or water/ice.

Other than that the greens were true. They do a great job of giving this course an aesthetic of being a tight course with lots of water, while providing a playable layout with generous landing areas. There are definitely holes with propensity to be a blow up hole should you hook/slice but then there are 2 gettable par 5s and a few -300yd par 4s that if you can put it out there give you eagle looks or surely good birdie opportunities. For perspective I shot 84 with a 7 on #4 and 3 penalty strokes. If you can roll the ball, get it to the right tier on the green in regard to pin placement there are scores to be had here. I will also state the practice facilities seem to be immaculate, with the amount of rain we received I understand it being closed. Just showed up an hour and 15 mins before my tee time to warm up and found it tough to pass that time. I would 100% recommend this course to anyone. With 3 9s the worry of out of season aeration is something you don’t have to worry about as well. As Dave Portnoy would say, “ one round everyone knows the rules!” I would give osprey point (hawk and raven) a 9.1/10

chased off 18th

i love the course and it's in good condition. But I absolutely object to having a ranger come run me off the 18th tee box (as a single player moving fast!) because they want the carts in at 7:45. Official sunset on that day was 8:10, and there would actually be good light for another 15 minutes after that. So with at least a half hour of good play time, this doosher wouldn't even let me play out the last hole by myself! No way to treat a paying customer.

Course was Closed

Golf now charged my CC and the course was closed. The course said they notified Golf Now multiple times not to take reservations for the day. I would like a refund for the charge on my card .

DID NOT HONOR RESERVATION

The course did not honor my fully prepaid GOLFNOW reservation and told me I needed to get a refund from GOLFNOW. They told me that GOLFNOW offered tee times that the course itself does not offer.

I have been looking and looking and cannot figure out how to either contact GOLFNOW or to request a refund from the site. I am blistering mad.

Great value and conditions!

First time playing this course and it is the best value in South Florida. The conditions of the course are great, layout challenging from the back tees, friendly staff, limited delays and affordable price.

Will be back, thanks again for a great day on the course!
