Type Public
Style Executive

Length 1877 yards
Slope N/A
Rating 27.4

Boca Raton Municipal Golf Course is home to an 18-hole Championship Course as well as a nine-hole Executive Course. Both courses were designed by Charles Ankrom across a gently rolling landscape of mature trees and winding lakes. The Executive Course provides great practice before the Championship Course but it is also a great place for beginners to learn the game since it is player-friendly enough to appeal to all ages and skill levels. For more advanced players it provides a quick, enjoyable round that can be played in less than 90 minutes. The layout is a mix of par 3s and par 4s with no par 5s. There are a few strategically placed bunkers but overall the golf course is geared more towards a less experienced player. In addition to the two courses, Boca Raton also offers a driving range as well as putting and chipping greens.

Nice Muni

I would reccomend playing this nice mini course. Being a public course it obviously was as busy as you would imagine. The layout of the holes was fair and water very rarely came into play. The tee boxes need some work but the greens were very good , not terribly fast and decent size. We were matched up with two others , one a visitor and one a frequent player who helped us navigate the course. All in all, for a busy public course it was fun.

Good Value...pace moved ahead with Player Assistants.

This is my "home" course. So, I play it about twice a week. For a muni course, you couldn't ask for much better. Greens and fringe well maintained. Tee boxes in good condition.
THE COURSE ----
It's got a bit of everything... except there's not much of over-the-water and no water/ditches in front of the greens. Except for two holes, water canals and ponds don't come much into play. They have manufactured some side-hill lies that give you some interesting shots. 18 has four sets of tees. You can’t even see where most of the black tees are! The Exec has 3 sets.
Has some nice doglegs and fairway bunkers but nothing dicey. Most players are repairing divots keeping the greens and fairways in nice condition. Handicap cart options allow you closer to the holes. Lot of senior players in the mix along with some big hitters – all seem to get along. Player assistants keep a close watch on the pace and when needed get the pace picked up. We get a lot of last-minute single players joining our threesome.
CART/WALK: ----
The majority ride 18, but there are SOME options for walking. Check with the clubhouse. There might be some restrictions for walking the 18-hole course. (You can walk the executive anytime)
BONUS: NO HOUSES! ----
For both the 18 and the executive courses, it’s all nature -- with trees, ponds, ducks, birds; ospreys, spoonbills and ducklings. You do have to be careful not to lay your snacks anywhere on the carts. The crows are clever.

Groundskeepers move away from the play area when you are in hitting range. Not every course is so accommodating. Plenty of water and ball cleaners on the course. I’ll miss this course when it finally converts to housing, but it seems a year or more away. In the meantime, the course is kept in great shape.

I played with my son. The people in the shop were friendly and welcoming. The corlursevwas in nice shape. Not elite but what we expected for the price. Greens were very nice. Plenty of hazards but also room to let out the driver without fear on some holes. The rangers were very nice and helpful. I would play this course again.

Good Overall Experience

Pro shop guys were very friendly and help set the golf day in the right way. This wasn’t the case with some other courses that made me feel like it’s a privilege to play on their course.
The practice facilities were all very close with cold drinking water in the range area! Starters were friendly as well. Course layout was decent enough to challenge any level with lots of water on most holes.
The greens were in good Condition and quite quick as well. Only complaint was the lady course Marshall who wasn’t too friendly! Maybe just a bad day out there.
I’ll play here again for sure.

Good greens

This is a top tier public access course because it is well kept, with very good greens, and good pace. Good range,bunkers were well kept. The management cares; more than my experience at other courses in S Florida. I highly recommend.

Greens, bunkers, tee boxes, and fairways are in good shape. Pace of play was excellent due in part to heavy showers around the area keeping some golfers away
