Plantation Palms Golf Club, designed by David Harman, provides every Tampa golfer with a challenging and rewarding golf experience. The links-style design starts with a welcoming par 5, and then slowly steps up with a mixture of strong par 3s. Just 10 minutes north of Tampa, this course was carved a 400-acre citrus grove that slopes from west to east, providing interesting elevation changes. Water is in play on 17 of 18 holes. Plantation Palms Golf Club has an attractive framing of greens by the use of pine trees, water and large snow-white sand traps. The true-rolling elevated greens have good movement and are a challenge for golfers.

Almost perfect

No water or ball washers on a course this awesome is a letdown. GPS on the carts, bev cart, fast greens, it almost has it all. But will definitely be back

Would not recommend

First time playing the course - summer day in Florida and no water on the course or cart girl. Said something on the turn about how dangerous that could be and the staff just laughed us off.
Pace of play was terrible, clearly just booking whoever and not thinking twice about it. On the back 9 there was 3 groups on every hole. After 4 hours and being only on hole 13 we ended up leaving, going through the rest of the course it was like that the rest of the way.
Talked to the pro shop about this and only response was “that’ll happen”.
For $60 take your money elsewhere.

Out of towner

I liked everything about the course except the pace of play was horrible. They seemed to have a Marshall come by but I don’t think they ever got the group who slowed everyone up to pick up the pace.

Pace of play

This is the second time in a week that the round took 4-1/2 hours with a group in front that had 2 holes open in front of them not able to maintain contact with the group in front of them. No ranger to be seen either round. They did give us a free round the first time. The starter just sends people out regardless of their tee time I really don’t understand why they can’t manage their course properly

The course was under water especially around the greens and not in the conditions that you would associate with the price paid.

Greens were over sanded and aeriated

Bad time for me to play but good for the course. It’s going to rain for the next few days and would have been the time to play day Friday or later. The Tik Toc meme was in play. No toilet paper in men’s room…
Still love the staff. Will play again.

Slow!

This course layout is fun and the greens are nice. Although they were punched recently, they are still pretty smooth and fairly fast. Tee boxes need serious attention as do some of the cart paths.....which for some reason, every course seems to neglect. My biggest complaint would be the pace of play. I played this course 2 days in a row, and both days were EXTREMELY slow. The rangers did their best to move people along, but it still remained very slow, which is typical for this course. Service was good and people were nice.

It was a great a day of golf for our son, his mom and me. The course was in good condition and no one in front of us.

The course is fun

Went as a single, got paired up with a slow double. Other than that it was a fun day on the course. The course is a lot of fun but the greens were rough. They must have been done recently.
