The Palms Golf Course is a tract that locals and visitors alike just love to play. Originally designed by William Mitchell in 1962, the Palms was completely renovated by Karl Litton and Lorie Viola in 1996.

The accommodating fairways make it easier to hit your tee shots in play. Once on the 'dance floor', the Bermuda greens roll true and quick.

The Palms Course has a number of picturesque water hazards. As its name would indicate, the Palms features lovely native Palm trees throughout the course.

It is most definitely a true Florida golf course and one, which everybody should put on their 'must play' list .

Palms vs Oaks

The greens of Palms are in poor shape, with crab grass-type outgrowths affecting your ball's roll.
The Oaks is in better shape and, in a few places, allows you to believe you're in New England.

Course is very forgiving, however Greens need plenty of work

Overall the morning was very delightful. The staff were very friendly and accommodating, however, the Greens need plenty of work.

Fun course and good value

Challenging course with variety - greens a little rough. Enjoyed the round and certainly a good value. Driving range didn't open till after my early tee time - so that was a downer.

The greens were in terrible shape - definitely needs attention!

The overall course layout was well designed, if it wasn't for the condition of the greens, I will definitely recommend this golf course. Make sure you call and ask for the conditons of the greens, before you set-up a tee time.
