Greens were in good condition but a little slow

Fairways were in ok condition. Some bunkers had rocks in them and the sand was hard. Greens were in good condition but a little slow. A lot of lateral water on most holes. I like the old cypress trees. Some construction going on. The Proshop was in a temporary trailer. Staff were very friendly.. Pace of play was good. I would play here again.

Coarse is in good shape but the greens are slow

I hadn't played this course in over a year because the greens were in terrible shape. The greens are now in good shape, but they putt SLOW. I find that most of the public courses I play have a fairly uniform speed. It took several holes to adjust to the slow greens and even after 18 hole, I still left more putts short than long. The rough is also cut higher than most other courses, and the ball would disappear in the deep grass. I had a very bad day driving the ball, so I was in the rough a lot. The fairways were in great shape,. The bunkers were in good shape. The course has a very nice layout. Water comes into play on many holes. The staff was friendly and pro shop personnel wore masks. I would have enjoyed the round more if I could have kept my drives in the fairway..

One of my favorite coarses

I've played this coarse many times. It is one of my favorite. The fairways are in great condition as are the greens. Water comes into play on many holes. The coarse in moderately challenging. The staff were all wearing facemasks and the golf carts were being sanitized after each round. The bunkers were in good condition although some of the sand was firm due to recent rain. The GPS's on the carts are very useful as are the electronic scoring feature. Rangers were out on the coarse and will say something to players if not keeping pace. Highly recommend this course.

Forgiving coarse

Fairly easy to play. I sliced a couple of drives into the adjacent fairway and was able to play it toward my green and save par. Greens are in good condition and the ball rolls true.. I played from the senior tees. Fairways are in good shape with some bare spots around some of the greens. The condos around the coarse are kind of ugly, but there are may mature trees to make the coarse better looking.

Friendly Staff

I've played this coarse many times. They have the friendliest staff of any coarse that I've played. A shot of pinnacle rum or banana rum was offered on the 3rd hole. Greens are always in great shape.

Great Greens

The best thing about the coarse are the greens. They were in great shape. The fairways are a little narrow. You need to hit the ball straight off of the tees. The pace was a little slow this day, but its winter in florida with the snowbirds. The fairways were in ok shape. I would have like a little more fluffy lies. I would play here again. My only complaint was that there was no bag drop area. You have to wait for a bag cart to come around in the parking lot. There was no sign indicating this. So if you know the routine, its no problem.

Would play again

This was the first time that I played the Cypress coarse. I found the coarse to be in good condition. The greens were in excellent condition and moderately fast and some undulations. The bunkers, which I've seen criticized in other reviews, were in good condition. The fairways were also in good condition. The tee boxes were the only part of the coarse in average to poor condition. I was told that the Cypress coarse is the most challenging of the 3 Palm Aire coarse due to the narrow fairways, but I was driving the ball good this day, so not too much of a problem. I would play this coarse again.

Great coarse in excellent condition

This was the 3rd or 4th time I've played this coarse. It is one of my favorites. The fairways and greens are in great shape. The greens are fast and undulating, but the ball rolls true. The bunkers and tee boxes were in good shape. The bar was not open when we finished around 4:45.

Not a 4-Star coarse

I had not played the Palms coarse in over 20 years. It recently started showing up on Golf Now hot deals, so I thought I'd give it a try again. It was also rated as 4 stars, but only 5 reviews on Golf Now. It is NOT a 4-star coarse. At best it is a 3-star coarse. Many tee boxes were in poor shape. several greens were patchy. The greens were also inconsistent as far a putting goes. Some were soft and slow others were firm and fast. Many of the greens were what I call "postage stamp" greens. In other words small, which I don't like. The fairways were ok, but also had some bare patches. The rough was weedy, but I guess that's why they call it rough. The bunkers were in ok shape, but again some were soft and others firm. There was a lot of worker out on the coarse laying sod and other maintenance, so it looks like things may get better. The best thing about the coarse was the beautiful outside bar area and its view. Probably won't play here again. I may try the Pines coarse though which was about $7 more on the Golf Now Hot Deals.

Great greens at Inverrary East

This coarse has some of the best conditioned greens in south Florida. With aerations going on during the summer now, greens are in all kinds of states of recovery. But Inverrary greens are in perfect condition. The coarse has a nice layout, with mature trees. The fairways are in good condition. The bunkers were the only negative. Due to recent rainy weather, the bunker sand was very compact and are to hit out of. After the round we had a nice ice cold beer in the bar.

Slow play

I've played this coarse for several years.The greens and fairways are always in good shape. The bunkers could use a little more sand. I like the layout with all of the dog leg holes, and a fair amount of water and bunkers to make things challenging. My only complaint is the pace of play lately. We teed off about 15 minutes from our scheduled tee time and the 18 hole round took 4 hours and 45 minutes. I played earlier the same week and the round took almost 5 hours. I've never seen a ranger out on the coarse to tell slow groups to speed up their play. I complained about this to the guy in the pro shop. He said that pace for this coarse is 4 and a half hours because of all the dog legs. He gave me a free bucket of golf balls to warm up with.

A nicely designed coarse

Getting to the greens was fairly straight forward, but pin placement made putting challenging. Better familiarity with approach shots and reading the greens would have helped keeping score lower.

Worth the drive

I live in Boca Raton but am always willing to drive to Lake Worth (30 min) to play this coarse. I've played this coarse a number of times and always enjoyed it. It has some easy holes and some challenging holes. The #3 island green hole is always fun, and #18 is short but still challenging with the water on the right. The greens are in excellent condition. The bunkers are in good shape as well as the fairways. The staff is always friendly. Pace of play was 4 hours. I get some really good deals on GolfNow for this coarse. I highly recommend this coarse.

Great Grass

This coarse has some of the best grass that I have ever played on, especially around the greens. This has a very positive effect on my chipping accuracy. The greens are fast and smooth. The fairways are also excellent to hit off of. I tend to loose a lot of balls on this coarse due wayward shots are in the bushes that line this coarse. Coarse was a little soggy due to recent rain.

Requires coarse management

This is a short coarse (6000 yds from the tips), but it makes up for this with narrow fairways, and lots of water. The coarse also requires some coarse management. There are several par 4's that you may not want to hit your driver off the tee boxes. The greens were in good shape (almost 100% recovered from aeration). The bunkers were soft and good to hit out of. Some tee boxes were not in good shape (weedy or missing a lot of grass). There is water in play on the majority of holes.

Decent Coarse

Greens are fast and in good shape. Ok fairways - grass is a little thin in many places. Tee boxes are a little weedy. Bunkers are in great shape with well maintained sugar sand. Staff is friendly. Got a good deal through Golf Now.

Best public coarse in Oak Ridge

I've played this coarse many times when I visit family in Oak Ridge. I like this coarse. The coarse is presently in good condition except for a couple of fairways, greens and more than a few tee boxes. I find the coarse to be fairly challenging (I'm a 15 handicap). The greens are fast and challenging. Golfnow has had some good deals for this coarrse.

Coarse is in excellent condition

I also like the GPS in the golf carts. The rough is cut a little high, so keep a good eye on wayward shots. The coarse is very forgiving due to wide fairways and large greens. Even after missing the fairway with my drive, I was still able to hit the greens in regulation a few times.

A little soggy

I thought that I would play the white tees (about 6000 yards) since I was unfamiliar with the coarse. Normally I play around 6300 yards (the blue tees said 6300 + ). The coarse was still quite soggy due to recent rain. The white tees were moved forward almost up to the green tees (ladies?). So this made the coarse easier than it would normally be. It also made judging some of the landing areas difficult. The only distance markers were 175, 150, and 100 marked on the cart path on most but not all holes. So I thought I was playing white tee distances when I was closer to the green tee distances.
The greens were in excellent condition. Most fairways were nice and wide and forgiving.
