This is probably the worst course I have ever played. It’s in such horrible shape, do not trust the other pictures on Google. Staff was not helpful or friendly. There were about 6-10 guys sitting in the trees along the fairway on 2 not even sure they were workers of the course. Once you get to the first tee you’ll feel like you were robbed, because you were.
Current ownership will not honor my rain check which does Not have any expiration date on it. I have read other reviews about this golf course lack of maintenance and would Not recommend nor encourage anyone going there regardless of the green fees. You have been warned about the lack of customer service and conditions of their course. Take your business to somewhere else. You and your grand kids deserve better.
I would give this 0 stars if possible. Don’t trust the website photos. I’m sure they were taken in the 90’s . Absolute worst course in America and they should be ashamed to allow this place to stay open. The tee boxes were sand traps and I broke a tooth on the washed out cart paths. Even the old guy managing the carts was a grump even for an old guy. Save your hard earned money. Do better PGCFL!
Nice course, friendly people. Driving range ( I think the only one at Rotonda golf) course we played in March was in good shape and challenging for everyone. But unfortunately, if four flights are at a hole ( three wating at the tee) something is totally wrong. If you need 3 hours for 9 holes, something is totally wrong. Obviously, the management is more interested in making money, than providing a comfortable and satisfying round for the players. That's bad....
Really enjoyed my round at The Palms. The course isn’t super long, but it’s in great shape and has a fun layout that keeps you on your toes. Super friendly staff, easy pace, and just an all-around great vibe! Definitely planning to come back
