| California Golf Club -- Great Value | ||
| Review by: Paul | In my experience, California Golf Club offers a great value for the recreational golfer. I paid twenty-five dollars for a morning round (in season) and was very pleased with the course. The fairways may not be in peak condition, but the greens are fast and consistent. The fairways are typically Florida flat, but trees line almost every hole, making tee shots challenging, and recovery shots inevitable. The most unusual feature at California is the last three holes, which seem to have been lifted off of a TPC course and dropped on North Miami. Mid-handicappers should love this course. | |

| Palm Gardens Golf Course -- Just plain fun | ||
| Review by: J. Watson | A very good short course that is FUN to play. You don't play this course with the same attitude and shot arsenal as you would a standard course. Have fun and drive the greens on the par 4's. Play from the tips and get there in two. If you prefer play it safe and see a score in the sixties or better on your card. Be warned while this course is fun if you get off line very far double or worse is possible. Watch out for the first hole a 90 degree dog leg right that requires a precise tee shot to have the correct angle to the green. Also there is a very short par 3 (less than 100 yards) that is bunkered on all sides and the tiny green will not hold. Place your tee shot in the front and the ball will release to the back anywhere else and you are in the sand. Additionally this short course is a great walk. The distance is just right and most of the scenery is very pleasant to the eye. If I had a complaint it was the greens. They were extremely slow. I have played fairways that were faster. I played there early March 2005 and maybe this was due to seasonal adjustments. However if you just remind yourself this is the way all greens were before 1950 and play the course as is you can be confident even an aggressive missed putt will only leave you a tap in come back putt. A different style course that you can walk; is FUN, and inexpensive. Try it you just may find you want to play more often. | |
