Great Day at Sea Palms

My Buddy and I made a last minute tee time through Golf Now and we got a great rate. The course was in excellent shape, especially the greens. The staff was friendly and very helpful. The driving range could be better but it wasn't that bad. We had a great day. Can't wait to play it again.

Great Day For Golf

I arrived early and was immediately paired with another gentleman named Allen. Luckily our skill levels were the same and we had a great round of golf. The course was in good shape and the pace of play for a Saturday was outstanding. There wasn't a cart person going around with refreshments, but it was not too hot. Overall, I would play this course again.

Worth a visit

Greens in good shape. Fairways a bit dried out. Layout is not special just a nice course to play. Not especially difficult so slow play is not acceptable.

Course in very good condition. Layout is rather bland, has not been updated in 20 years. Very nice greens. Traps not raked. Fairways in good condition. Price was right, and would play it again.

Nice course for the value.

Good course for the value. Some of the people who play there are not too golf friendly, while others are. I am referring to letting faster players through. Other than some foursome being rude, I really enjoy the course, the greens, the tees and the sand traps. At my home course if a hole is open, we let faster players through. This should be a rule at all courses. Of course a ranger would help the situation. I have never seen a ranger on the course.

Great course

Like I read in a review earlier, you have to take a cart to driving range but they said a 8 minute cart ride, it’s right past hole #3 which is not that bad! I played solo and went off at 11:30, so morning rush had already cleared out. I played in a little under 3 hours, and I was taking my time! Tee boxes were like carpet thought they were in great shape, fairways were cut and in great condition, greens were true and in great shape, the only drawback that I saw were yardage markers that are buried in fairway, I’m used to yardage sticks, other than that, I had a great time and will definitely recommend this to anyone who is looking for a great course!!!!!

Nice Course

Golf Now booking was flawless. The range is a little lacking only goes out to around 175 and rather narrow with netting. Course was in good shape. A couple of the fairways haven't been cut in a couple weeks but greens were soft and consistent. Great value with GN discount. However, pace was a little slow as we were basically plugged into a shotgun start club or tournament event. Bunkers were hard, haven't been raked and need more sand. (I shouldn't have been in them as often as I was but it was noticeable) Overall a very pleasant experience though, good bunker placement and use of water features. I'll be back
