About PGA National Resort & Spa

Golf fans know PGA National particularly for the Champion Course, the extremely challenging host of the PGA Tour's Honda Classic. But PGA National has far more to offer, too: four other, tamer golf courses plus an ever-improving lodging and dining complement, including the excellent Ironwood Steakhouse just off the resort's main lobby.

Overall very fun track. Lots of options off of the tee. Par 5's are challenging. Greens in great shape. Only negative was the bunkers were inconsistent.

A must play

Challenging due to water being in play on what seems like every shot. The greens are receptive and provide a fair test without being punishing, getting to the green is where the difficulty lies. Worth a visit by an true golfer.

Challenging with a great practice facility

Nice layout and part of the PGA National group. Greens fast and tough pin positions the day we played.

Great place!

Super golf course. Far from PGA National itself, but a great course.

No WiFi available, and everything was closed up by 3pm. That was a bit disappointing after a round.

But all in all, great day out!

Great experience

Took my son to play here after having a great previous experience and wanted him to have the same. We were not disappointed. Staff is second to none and this course is immaculate from tee to green. Don’t miss an opportunity to experience this course and it’s remarkable staff.

Despite rain still was great!

Mother nature tried her best to rain the round out but I fit it in anyway. Most cancelled that day but the few that golfed, the course staff made it truly a great experience. The course is a great layout and the tricky greens rolled true. I also want to give a thank you to all the grounds crew, great job with keeping things in shape and for all the etiquette! Top notch all around, absolutely I would play again, thanks very much!

Worth the visit

The Estates has an excellent range and practice facility. Course was in good shape, although it was wet due to rain during the round and ponding occurred on some of the fairways. Greens were pristine and traps in good shape. Nice variety of holes. Staff members were very friendly. Overall, a very pleasant experience at The Estates.
