Nice course however could provide a better upscale experience for the cost to play
Really nice course and layout and enjoy a really nice day on the course
My only feedback is for the most upscale course and price in the area could include range balls as part of greens fee and gps on the golf carts. I was quite surprised no gps system on golf cart for $100 fee during the middle of the week. My home municipality course back in NJ has cart gps and the price would be less than half
Also the club house is tired and not very welcoming as ione of the comments from a elderl member said to me this is very much an old gentleman club. I was going to ask what he meant by that however I didn’t want to ruin my day of golf In trying to educate the ignorance
Great course after a heavy rain
This course struggles in the hot weather due to only 1 small pond on the course. So if you are looking for a course that plays great after heavy rains this is the place. Par 3 tee boxes are pretty rough. Would like to see them put a mat as a second tee option. Plenty of off camber lie’s to test and practice your craft.
Best conditions are right after the rain
The course has only small ponds so if you book a tee time after big rains the course is in perfect shape. Great course, great for practice on uphill/downhill/side hill lies. Par 3 tee boxes are usually beat up but we made it work.
Beautiful Mountain Course
Palmer was in great shape considering it is only April 13th. It’ has an unusual routing with 6 par threes, 5 par fives, and 7 par fours. You don’t really notice the abundance of par threes since they’re all really solid holes. The whole resort is peaceful and serene with beautiful vistas of the hillside. For those who love a good patio for after round activities, this one is fantastic!
February Golf
Coarse was in awesome shape for winter. Had a great time playing and will play again as soon as we get a warm day.
Outstanding
Couldn't ask for a better round on Thanksgiving Day!
Wow!
Course was incredibly nice for winter.
Great staff.
Good food.
The Palmer Course
The Palmer course remains one of my favorites in the tri-state area. The course has a unique layout with five par 5’s and 5 par 3’s. It is a challenging but fun course to play.
It is a bargain if you can find a discount but a little pricey if you pay the regular rate.
