Nightmare round
Over sold course. 5 hour round and shot 88. Imagine. Unfriendly lady
Absolute joke
It’s been a few years since I’ve played this course and I remembered it fondly for my time back in high school however, when I played it, today was an absolute waste of money in the courses defense they have had a few rounds of storms come through the area however it does not look like the storms have had any major impact on the course itself, other than a few downed trees, and a few spots of standing water today the course had not been mowed and what looked like 2 to 3 days the pins had looked like they have not been moved in a week. The clubhouse is one room with less than friendly. Staff manning the front desk. The cart haven’t been updated since the early 2000s there’s no Ranger no beverage cart no starter nothing that a course charging $50-$60 for riding 18 should have. there’s no signage in no warning from any of the staff regarding the condition of the course and I can’t believe that the owners have not fired everyone involved with the maintenance of the playing conditions.
Disrepecful Lawn Mowers
The lawn mowers were out in force which typically don't bother me.. However, one guy was driving straight at my12 year old son and not slowing down. My son quickly hit a 30 yard shot to get out of the way. I stopped the guy mowing the grass and asked him why he didn't stop and shut down whilst my son hit. He replied "What? I mowing the grass". I told him about golf educate but he just kept going listening to his earbuds. I stopped in the clubhouse right after and told the lady behind the desk. She was very apologetic and said she would call his supervisor. What actually happened I don't know. But you don't play chicken with a 12 year old vs a mower. Really shines a bright light on they're customer service. on they're part. He doesn't want to go back now.
Underrated, Challenging Golf Course
Being smack dab in the middle of flat NE Indiana, and boom… here’s Palmera to get you all the hills and elevated greens you could ever want from an inexpensive public course just an hour from downtown Chicago. Don’t tell anyone about it though… I want the course to be a secret!!!!
Beautifully maintained course!
We have had the pleasure of playing Palmira several times this golf season. The course is gorgeous. The fairways are manicured with great roll out. The greens can be tricky and quick. Pace of play can be slow depending on day/time. They have a nice practice area- great range, multiple putting greens and a chipping area. Overall- one of our favorites!
Slippery
The greens were slippery quick compared to the most recent courses I played. Had some shorter shots run through the green on a couple of occasions and also had a bad day with the flat stick, (normally my putter is solid), all in all though it has a nice layout with trouble in spots to aim away from. A tad longer then most courses as well. Drinks from the cart girl were reasonably priced. Nice challenge for the dollar.
Want to play again
This was the 1st time playing this course, and I loved it. It was challenging without being over hard. The layouts of the course was amazing with a lot of different shots to use in your bag.
