I’m gonna miss this place🥲
I’ve golf here for the last two years. Have always found it convenient, affordable and challenging 💕
I will always remember this place fondly💕
Not going back
Course was in Rough condition, it’s very narrow, close to houses and the pace of play got so slow on the back with all the par 3s and players ahead of us teaming up into a group of 6
Best part was we could get out easily after the 16th hole and we were so happy we did!
Fun course with fair conditions at best
Greens were pretty nice. Fairways.... not so much. Pretty burnt out you were hitting off the ground much of the time.
Course is just in brutal shape, nice staff, good food, cheap beers. Impossible to justify this as a $50 round.
First time
This course is a lot of fun. It’s short but requires solid shot making. Greens were in good shape and you could fire at the pin. Fairways are in tough shape, very firm with very little give or grass. We agreed to roll over the ball in the fairway to find a reasonable lie and had a blast. Staff is very accommodating and friendly- worth the trip for a reasonable priced round.
jon
was a great course for the price...good for most golfer levels
Forest Oaks
Fantastic coarse. Joined with 3 local players, had a great round. Would definitely recommend.
Owners switched, no longer watered /fertilized
Sadly a cute course that is going off in to the sunset. Sweetest pro shop/cook attendant
Great Greens!
Greens were in very good shape and rolling very nice, not too fast and not too slow, at least for me. Most bunkers were in bad shape as were the fairways, however you are getting a lot of roll, watch out for the hazards with that roll.
Course poor condition
No grass on tee off, even in the fairways , the water in the washing ball machine was black .
I will never go back again . Tee off should not recommande this club.
Good value
Nice course for the price. Greens in good shape but aesthetically so so. I would play there again.
Best greens for the price
Showed up late to my tee time. Staff seamlessly got me matched up and playing in no time. Staff is extremely friendly. This course is always fun with a good pace of play. The greens are perfect. Best value course in palm beach!
