Palm Valley Golf Club
Rating Snapshot
About
Since opening in 1989, Palm Valley Golf Club has become a favorite among locals for the extremely affordable rates and enjoyable round. Surrounded by acres of horse farms in the heart of Nocatee, the golf course offers an idyllic and relaxing game. The nine-hole layout consists of two par 4s and seven par 3s. The golf course is ideal for beginners or for golfers looking for a casual round, but don't be mistaken: It is not a simple pitch-and-putt. Palm Valley Golf Club features well manicured target greens bordered by sand bunkers and water comes into play throughout. In addition to the golf course, Palm Valley also offers a 10,000-square-foot putting green, the largest in the area.

Decent practice course for short irons
You get what you pay for at Palm Valley, which isn’t much. About half of the tee boxes are either under repair or completely abandoned. Fairways are narrow and could use a mow, but the holes are short. So if you’re lucky, you won’t have to play out of them all that much.
The course is great if you are looking for an affordable spot to work on your short iron accuracy, or if you are looking to play an entire round with a 7 iron, Roy McAvoy style. Oh, and they charge extra for a push cart, so pack light for this little cowpoke 9 hole oasis. I wouldn’t recommend asking about GolfNow. The owner seems to be offended people are booking “Hot Deals” and robbing them of the extra few bucks.
Owners are letting the course return to farmland
Sand on tee boxes, deep sand on several greens and various types of weeds on all greens. Really sad little course
Great Practice Facility
PVGC is a nice little 9 hole par 3 course (2 hole are par 4 at 240 and 210 yards). Their driving range has a nice new turf area along with classic mats along with newer range balls. This is a great place to hit balls and then walk a quick 9 and practice on course. Majority of the holes are around 100 yards so perfect to work on scoring play. Go out w a few mates and a pop or two and enjoy a walk about. Simple vibes that are sometimes missing at bigger clubs/courses. I recommend checking it out. Cheers ,,,, Mk
Very cool 9 hole course
Tight and small. Perfect 9 hole walking course. Coming back asap.
Soggy and shaggy
My son and I liked to play this course throughout the last summer. Today the course was extremely soggy, even though it did not rain last night. The greens were completely un-puttable. Typically, this course's greens play moderately fast. The tee boxes and greens look like they have been reseeded with a winter ryegrass. Tee boxes are much too soft to hit off, and the greens do not roll.
poor start, middle and finish - I'd stay away
clubhouse attendant informs us they don't honor tee times and to wait in line at the first tee !!
never heard that one befpre but prepaid so no choise.
It got worse. First tee was like teeing off from a sand trap - greens were not rolling true as weeds were long and there were burnt out areas. I agree with a previous post and no one should've been subject to these conditions. Its only $10 but seems like owners just gave up
Won't be back
Needs an overhaul
This local pitch and putt could be a very nice short game practice course, However, it needs to be completely overhauled and then maintained. Nobody should’ve been allowed on that course yesterday it was extremely wet and probably did more damage to the course. As always, the driving range and chip and putting greens are very nice and were in good shape.
Best place to relax and hit some balls
This place has always been a favorite of mine. Even when the weather isn't the best, I still like to come out and play. The prices are ridiculously good, chill atmosphere so I'm not stressed about making sure I look like a pro golfer, and the course is fun everytime I play. Greens are a lot better than they were a year ago too. If you want a place to just relax and hit some balls, I say come here.
great for beginners
greens were rough in places but not bad for new players
Nice course
Greens where fast but fair. Many holes don’t leave much room for mistakes. Gotta keep it straight.
