Poinciana Golf Club
Play a hidden Palm Beach gem with today’s feature: $16 for 18 Holes with Cart at Poinciana Golf Club in Lake Worth ($32 Value. Includes Tax. Expires May 15, 2017!)
Many times, golf in the West Palm Beach area can be quite expensive and exclusive with tee times hard to come by. But today’s feature course, Poinciana Golf Course in Lake Worth, totally bucks that trend by establishing an inclusive, inviting, and relaxed atmosphere from the first tee to the final green. Combine that with a playable yet not-always-easy 18 hole executive layout, and you’ve got one of the best golfing experiences in the area, and across the Sunshine State.
The famous American golf architect Leon Howard is responsible for over 50 of the country’s best courses, and Poinciana Golf Club should certainly be counted among them. Built in 1976 as an executive course that features three par 5s, four par 4s and eleven par 3s totaling just 4,560 yards, Poinciana’s abbreviated layout gives you the opportunity to not only test every club in your bag, but also to focus on those that mean the most to your score: short irons, wedges, and putter.
But don’t think that this short course is by any means a pushover – it isn’t. Water from numerous lakes is in play, and the greens here are well-protected by strategically placed sand traps that are designed to punish errant approach shots that miss their target. Rated 60.9/103 from the back set of tees (of which there are three), this exceptional course and one-of-a-kind atmosphere make it one of the West Palm-area’s most enjoyable places to play.
Not only does Poinciana feature one of the area’s most unique playing experience, it also features one of the most welcoming family atmospheres that you’ll find anywhere. Isabelle, the course’s owner, always has music playing in the clubhouse, and cookies just waiting for all who come to play. Plus, kids under 15 play for free with a paying adult, making the course a perfect place to spend time with your loved ones.
Enjoyable, playable, one-of-a-kind – Poinciana Golf Club simply shouldn’t be missed by any player. Don’t let this feature expire; reserve your round now!
