Plantation Palms Golf Club
Rating Snapshot
About
Plantation Palms Golf Club, designed by David Harman, provides every Tampa golfer with a challenging and rewarding golf experience. The links-style design starts with a welcoming par 5, and then slowly steps up with a mixture of strong par 3s. Just 10 minutes north of Tampa, this course was carved a 400-acre citrus grove that slopes from west to east, providing interesting elevation changes. Water is in play on 17 of 18 holes. Plantation Palms Golf Club has an attractive framing of greens by the use of pine trees, water and large snow-white sand traps. The true-rolling elevated greens have good movement and are a challenge for golfers.

Great shape
Great fairways and fast greens. This is only the 2nd course I have found with champion shape greens. The only downfall was the fixing of ball divot repair on greens. That is not so much on them but us as golfers. Loved my round.. 86 BTW
Abysmal Pace
The pace of play was worse than I’ve seen it ever before. I know the snowbirds are down here but etiquette has got to start being enforced. Guys hitting 3 and 4 balls off the tee 2 or three shots from same spot on the fairways meanwhile we are getting hit into hole after hole. This round was really rough there were times we had 8-9 minutes between swings
I will be returning
I am an out of towner and jumping around playing different numerous courses. As far as course conditions,nice greens, decent fairways, good tee boxes and pace of play I’d recommend putting this on your list of don’t miss playing courses. It ranks up as one of the better and more fun ones I’ve played since being in the Tampa area for 2 weeks. Nice carts also made for a good experience. Good bang for your buck using the Tee Off app!
Nice course and good food after
Course playing really nice right now. Fast greens, nice Fairways and decent tee boxes. Layout is nice.
Stopped in afterward for some food and restuarant staff were very friendly. Food was served fast, hot, and delicious at reasonable rates
Poor conditions
Poor conditions for the price. Did not like the layout of the course. Some holes were very difficult for the average golfer. I won’t be back.
Nice
Great layout. Nice slope and tree lined fairways, a bit muddy after a few rainy days but worth the drive!
Much improved
I had heard that PP was getting better due to continued improvements to the course. After playing Sunday I was definitely impressed with the changes. The course has always had a great lay out. Greens were in good shape and pace was good. You can see that heavy rain could have an impact for sure, but it’s been dry and course played well. Put it in your rotation and kudos to PP for the strong steps forward.
Slowest round in history
Course is nice and the employees are fantastic. Unfortunately, this club has a bunch of members that screw around ruin it for everyone else. 3.5 hours to get through 9 holes because of these chuckleheads. Ended up playing first 9 again to avoid then. 5.5 hours is brutal overall. Club needs to address this ASAP.
3 tee times
Had a group of 10 in town for a college game. Course was well maintained and challenging. Greens ran true and an bunkers were sandy! Pace was on par.
