Palmetto Golf Course

Palmetto Golf Course in Miami has seriously declined in quality. The tee boxes and fairways are in poor-to-mediocre condition, which is where the course is really struggling right now. On top of that, the rough is St. Augustine grass — that’s lawn grass, not proper golf course rough. It makes for a frustrating playing experience, especially considering the prices they charge. Pace of play is consistently over 5 hours, with little to no on-course management to keep things moving. There rarely seem to be marshals enforcing pace, and rounds routinely turn into long, disorganized experiences. Wh…

First time playing there, and the course was in excellent condition overall. I noticed just one green with a few minor spots, but the rest were in fantastic shape. The fairways played well wherever I hit them. Plus, I saw the beverage cart multiple times—it’s rare to get that kind of service on a public course! I’ll be back next time I’m in town. Good job to the crew at Palmetto GC.

The golf course design is really nice. It is in OK shape but management can improve because currently is not good. Nine holes on a weekend are about 3 1/2 hours and when you complain, they just say they’re busy and if you asked for a rain check for the last nine holes they tell you they don’t guarantee a specific time to complete first 9. Rangers do not do anything to increase the pace so unfortunately, unless you want to spend seven hours on 18 holes and get out rhythm, is not a good option. Hopefully they can fix this issue because the golf course has a lot of potential. I am being a sincere…

This was a really fun place for kids and families to play mini golf. It’s a small course as a part of a larger golf course and they also have an attached casual pub and outside and inside seating. The mini golf course is not particularly hard but has lots of water traps and rivers running through it and is a little run down but perfectly fine for kids and families and a casual first date. You pick up the clubs in the pro shop along with the ball and they’ll give you an extra if you lose yours in a water trap or the bushes. Staff were very nice and accommodating! Food was fine.

The prices for this place are outrageous. It is nowhere near up to par to any of the courses around it. Pun intended. Probably the only thing good about this place is the sports grill that’s on site. I found more sand on the greens and tee boxes than I did in the bunkers.

Unfriendliest lady in the office I've ever met. Had trouble to find change. There was only one ball left and we asked her to give us another one, so each player had it's own ball. She refused, but since the family after us had no ball at all, she went out and found some balls. There are btw only yellow balls. So good luck if you are party of for. The prices on their web page are wrong. They charge $7 on weekdays and $8 on weekends. But every cent is too much: the course is extremely boring and not clean. The lighting is bad, so don't play when it gets dark. Stay away!

This place is a great spot for kids and adults looking to enjoy some time outdoors. The course is not the biggest but it does the job. I was told to get here early before 1pm rush and I am glad I did. This location has a restaurant on site which is great for before or after bite. I am not sure why there is not many photos but I am sharing a few that I was able to take.

Booked 18 holes and only got to play half of it (we were not able to geta voucher for the other half of the game). They knew we’re not going to be able to finish in time and still let us pay for 18 holes. They over book tee times and don’t have enough carts for the amount of people they book.

We played mini golf after dark on a weeknight in January. The course is very run down, lighting was dim, and water features were not operational. There was some stagnant water in the ponds that we made sure our balls did not go into.

Public golf courses in Miami Dade are now embarrassing. Is it because our mayor ( whom I admire ) doesn’t play golf? Compare our public courses to those in other counties, and/or states, we would rate dead last. Palmetto golf course management should be embarrassed and ashamed of how they let that course become what is has after a year long renovation recently. Sand trap greens and beachy tee boxes are worse than the bunkers..and for this privilege, they raise green fees too..

Frustrating that I have to write a bad review but I wish I had the heads up, so here goes…the course fraudulently overbooks tee times so people start late and never get what they pay for. Get a tee time before 11 am if you want to play 18 on the weekend. Divot galore.

Best 10 public golf course BUT NOT the week-end 🤬 80$ non refundable and no marshall so it’s kids running around with golf cart with no respect of the game and rules. 8 kids in front of us!!!!
