Greens a 9, course a 2 …don’t get it

Must admit the greens were perfect , but the Palm course conditions were a disaster . Foot deep potholes on some fairways and near some greens , some full of water and algae . Saw ducks feeding/ bathing in some of them , took pictures but won’t post them ….. major GUR areas all over the place. Again , great greens , but otherwise embarrassing conditions . Sorry for being uncomfortably honest . Spend more $$ on basic maintenance , it’s a recovery project , or fire your current course management .

Not worth the money

The course needs significant work to make it worth the money they charge. Blown out irrigation systems leading to puddles and then completely worn patches of dirt. Too many bachelor parties hit this course hard. Surly cart attendants

I wish I’d invested our golf budget elsewhere.

Golf Now No Help

Decent course and mid range affordable. Tried to change tee time through GolfNow same day same course just earlier as a single. Would not allow without forfeiting original booking cost. Don’t allow their help desk people any discretion. I’ll probably just book direct with the course in future.

Tough Greens if Above Hole. Hard to Hold on Greens

I have played here before, but the person who set pin positions on this particular day must not be a golf fan. Very difficult pin positions which SLOWS DOWN PLAY - Less $$$ for Course. A few holes are fine, but when 6 out of every 9 are difficult to put it causes frustration and slow play.
