Course condition

Some tee boxes need some work. Driving range pretty beat up..overall the course is ok. Seems like they are having issues with growing grass in some areas. The gold course was cart path only and we were booked on Gold.

Not worth the money

Range has no grass. Cheap balls with cuts and scuffs. Greens on gold course just ok. Too many ball marks and shoe scuffs. Tee boxes in poor shape for high end resort course. There are too many public courses in better shape at half the cost. Valet too slow and $20 to park. The golf carts are very nice. Pace of play was slow today but last month when I played was only 3 hours. You can tell it is a Trump course. They need a new owner who knows more about the hospitality industry.

Keeping golf great

Everything about this course and experience was top notch. We even ran into PGA pro John Daly while there. Very challenging course with a tough layout. Amazing deal with golf pass.

I love to play the Trump courses. The conditions, layouts, etc. provide ample of fun and challenges. It's pricey so once you see a good deal, take it and enjoy the fun playing at the courses.

Exceeded expectations

I played this course for the first time and I got to play on New Year's day. It was perfect because, there weren't many people on the course, so they actually let me play as a single. Golden Palm is a Links style course with a lot of water hazards. I lost at least three balls in the water, so if you play the Palm, make sure your shot striking and accuracy are solid. The first few holes were pretty lengthy, especially from the blues. The tees, fairways and greens were in immaculate condition. The greens were tough, I had two or three instances that I had to work real hard for a triple putt. Pro tip, make sure to know where to land the ball on the green, because I sure didn't. Having played Silver Fox, Red Tiger and Golden Palm. It's toss up as to which one's better, since they're all uniquely different. I say play all three, they're all three worth the try.

Embarrassing conditiions

Absolutely horrible conditions. Actually punished for being in the fairway. The fairways were nonexistent. Like playing off of mud. More dirt than grass. You needed to roll it to the rough to get a decent lie. Embarasssing conditions for a course of this caliber. It should not be open for play. Go play two 9s at Greynolds Park. Save your money and play on a course in better condition. Disgusted.

Great course, just lots of rain lately

Greens were perfect and fairways were well maintained, just a little wet from all the rain lately. Bunkers need some attention but that’s also due to the rain and not the courses fault. Layout is super fun

Only gripe is that the bunkers were not raked so they were extremely inconsistent. Love the course and will be back soon.

Be careful with hot deals

Unfortunately the course was closed due to severe weather the day before and Golfnow will not return the funds and making it difficult to contact them.

Very hard

I’m a bogey golfer to begin with and if u are don’t expect bogey golf it is very hard. It’s not uncommon to hit a perfect drive and end up with doubles and triples. Very hard around greens with sand and water protecting throughout the course. That being said it’s well maintained so no issues there. I would say it’s for skilled golfers who can work the ball and know how to spin it cause shots that may be required are over traps to a shallow green with water behind
