Called pro shop before making tee time to inquire about state of greens or recently punched greens, reply was no recent punching and course in great shape. On the contrary, every green was burned/bare on the edges and looked to be recovering from recent punching/maintenance and to top it off, there were “temporary” greens on holes number 5 & 6 which were spots mowed out in front of the greens about 30 to 40 yards before actual greens and putting on them was a joke to say the least. Course should not be charging full fee at this time and should be truthful/honest about condition of course when someone calls in!! By the way, they did have notices posted on the doors at the club about the damaged greens so that info could have been given over the phone!

Excellent course that I do not normally get to play, greens fee very affordable this time of year and usually not too crowded with other golfers. Played with two other guys I met on the 1st tee, enjoyable round other than getting caught behind a group playing team "best ball" and after they let us play through getting caught behind husband and wife hitting several tee shots including his golf instruction on every one of her shots. I'm not sure what the ranger was on the course for because he did nothing to help pace of play.

I know we have not been getting any rain this year, but I have never seen Boca Greens in such bad shape. It started from the 1st tee (we started on backside) and gradually got worse from there; dried out fairways/tee boxes, no rakes available in some of the fairway bunkers, bunkers like cement, divot fill is just actual dirt not normal mixture used to fill in and have grass grow back, etc etc etc. I guess the only good thing was the greens were not dried out, played a little slow but at least we did not encounter any dried out greens. The cart mentioned water restrictions but I live in Palm Beach county and I am aware of no restrictions at this time and I guess the other courses in the area are not aware either. Also, they have started charging for cups of water, overall not good experience at a course I have frequented in the past.

Course does not drain well; overnight rain and it was cart path only for entire 18 holes. Several of the holes had small ponds in the middle of the fairways due to poor drainage! I would not recommend playing after a good rain only when you are certain course is dry!

25 bucks to play Atlantis is an excellent deal and as always the course was in great shape. Only gripe if any, the greens on backside still not recovered from aeration as well as front side...overall great course!!

From the unmaintained parking lot to the finicky practice ball machine to the lack of rakes for the bunkers on the front 9 to the greens that were bumpy, patchy, and several had what seemed to be "potholes" in them. I cannot believe that the Honda Classic used to held at this course!!
