Banyan Cay Resort & Golf
Played On 03/20/2016No more Presidents
First off, yes the clubhouse is being torn down and a resorts/residential community is going up in its place. This course will no longer be public in two years and I am sure the prices will high. That is what you get in palm beach county.
The clubhouse is now a trailer, kind of like west palm beach golf course, but it is more up to date. No more grill and just a small amount of pro shop gear.
Driving range was in great shape with bright yellow balls. Carts have the same GPS unit and are accurate for the most part.
The course itself is a 4. The tee boxes and fairway were in great shape. Not many dead spots and good for the end of season. As for the greens and the sandtraps, well they were a two. The sand is hard and not typical of what you would find on a course this pricey. The greens are ok. They did let them grow out and you can tell they have not been rolled in a long time because they are slow, I mean real slow. The back nine has three holes with alot of dead spots on the greens which make it tough. I was able to complete my round in 4 hours, but it was pretty empty.
I will come back during the summer when rates are lower, but this course is hit or miss for the most part.
Also watch out for the fire ants. There are mounds of them through out the course.
Other then thank enjoy!
Eastpointe Country Club - East Course
Played On 02/13/2016West Course Challenge
Today, was a good surprise for me especially playing a private club. This club was combined with another in the same community. The courses are called the east and west course now. I played the west course and it was great. The fairways were average for the most part with a few under repair especially before the green. The greens were great all the way from the condition to the speed. The course plays long even though from the tips are 5900. A lot of different challenges that make you use all your clubs in bag. Need to have a good short game to compete here. Sit back and enjoy the course and have fun.
Madison Green Country Club
Played On 01/16/2016Great Course!
Great Course. We had some heavy rain the day before, but this course drains well so it was not a problem. The staff was great and kept things in order. The carts all have GPS which shows pace of play so most of the time this course is moving on pace. This is a somewhat tight golf course with alot of water so you need to be accurate on the majority of your shots. The conditions where great for the most part, greens has some sand on them, but thats expected after a heavy rain. Overall this is easily a top 5 public course in the West Palm Area and you will not be disappointed. We also played 36 holes this day because the replay fee was reasonable.
The Habitat Golf Course
Played On 12/17/2015Course in the middle of no where
Overall I believe that this course was a good value. They were redoing the tee boxes with new seed, which some were not even cut. The greens were ok for the most part and rolled true. Fairways are extremely tight, which make it fun to play. I would use an extra club on most approach shots. Good course for a muni!
The Golf Club of Jupiter
Played On 10/31/2015Food is good course not so much
The course has great greens, but other than that this course is below average especially for being a month away from the busy season. Carts are old gas powered ones, the tee boxes are rough (weeds or no grass at all), carts paths are bumpy, fairways are ok on a few holes, sand is average, and pace of play was not good. The bright side is the staff. Food was great I had on the turn, cart girl was present multiple times, and bag boys did a great job. I won't be coming back until course conditions get better which doesnt seem anytime soon.
Lake Worth Beach Golf Club
Played On 04/05/2015Ouch those greens
I played this course a couple of times, but this time around the greens were not good. It seems the person whom cut them was a rookie and set the setting to low which ended up cutting to deeps leaving mud present. Very disappointed becuase you can putt on that. 13th green was the worst. The views are great but not worth more then 15 dollars to play. Staff was good and ER Bradley's needs to lower their food prices for the golfers. Overall I would come if I can get on for 15 and just want to swing the clubs. No competitive golf here move to the next course. Hopefully they get some recovering work done on the greens. Cheers!
IMG Academy Golf Club
Played On 03/22/2015Worth the cash.
This course is a nice course and good for all levels. The fairways were in great condition and the greens ran true. The warm up area is great and it's not a big range, but it's just mention to warm up your swing. Overall I had a great time and played pretty well. The course is tight in some areas and there are hidden hazards that you need to watch out for. I will be coming back since I am come to the Bradenton area once a month. Cheers!
North Palm Beach Country Club
Played On 03/15/2015Great time!
This course is one the better conditioned courses in the area. The fairways actually have grass on them. You pay for what you get. The higher prices keeps the hackers away. I would be willing to pay more for a better course and this fits the description. The staff was great and the pace of play was good! I will continue to come here while I can.
Delray Beach Golf Club
Played On 02/06/2015Swing Away
I had a good time on this course especially since it was a last minute booking for me. I paid twenty dollars and was paired up with two ladies and another gentleman. We all had a great time and had some great conversation. Pace of play was ok, but the group in front of us was taking their time. The course was is good condition considering they are having 300 plus golfers a day come through. The green were a little slow, which made it hard to read the slopes correctly. I made my first eagle of the year on number 15 so that is always a plus! I will be back especially if it is the same price! Cheers!! Food was good too. They have hot dog, chips, and pop for 5.25 at the turn.
Eagle/Osprey at Okeeheelee Golf Course
Played On 02/04/2015Great Course
This course is challenging. It is not very long even from the golds, but there are plenty of dog legs that make you think about every tee shot. The course is always busy and the completion time really depends on whom is in front of you. Well this time I was stuck behind some hackers that played like they were in no hurry. Other then that I was paired up with three other guys two of which were not very good, but they held their own keeping up. They were great guys! This course is great during off season when the snow birds leave and speed of play is good! Cheers!
Wellington National Golf Club
Played On 01/28/2015Needs some TLC, but FUN!
Ok, I was skeptic coming to the course based on previous reviews. I paid 20 dollars, so I thought I would give it a shot. The clubhouse is nice and first impression is nice. The course layout is awesome and enjoyable. The greens are the best part in my opinion and were running fast! The fairways and sand traps on the other hand need some TLC. I couldnt tell if the sand traps were cart paths or sand sometimes. The traps need to be turned and fully raked. I can tell they are making an effort and I did see the grounds crew out there. Hopefully they invest in some water and weed killer. I loved the layout and I would come back just for that!
West Palm Beach Golf Course
Played On 01/21/2015Overbooked
Course took almost 5 hours to play. The starter was twenty minutes behind. As for the course, it was pretty good shape for winter. I saw the grounds crew out spraying for weeds. I would come back because the course is long and challenging. I just will wait till the off season, because I cant wait 15 minutes before each shot. Cheers!
The Highlands Golf Course
Played On 01/02/2015Give it a try!
This course is in pretty good shape and it is one of three gold courses in the meadows. The greens are extremely slow. No cart girl on the public course and no ranger present. On the bright side there are some challenging holes and you will have fun with some of your approach shots. I would play again, but most likely not in season.
Thank you for your positive review! We are glad you had enjoyed your round and appreciate that you noticed our efforts for improvement. Looking forward to seeing you back soon!
