Congrats to the Delray City Commission for approving the $28 million restoration to the Delray Beach Golf Club to restore what is a great design but in desperate need of renovation. Can't wait to play when the work is completed! read more

It is OK, a big older course so they need a little leeway. The Greens could be better maintained. The problem I have with it is they book times knowing the players will not be able to finish. Then come out and tell you to return. Seems kind of dodgy. read more

This impressive Donald Ross design (?) is in dire need of TLC, if not complete renovation. Until then, I won't be back - as much as I enjoy the underlying integrity of the course. General turf conditions are sketchy, at best . I wish someone could teach me how to hit wedges off that horrible, sticky grass like crap that grows in between the dirt and sand that masquerades as turf! The greens are plain awful. Delray, you've got a hidden treasure here. Treat it with respect. One star for the design. No stars for the condition, or lack thereof. read more

I am giving this course a 1 only because the pace of play was excellent. Haven't played this course in years because my group refuses to ever play there again. However, I decided today to give it a shot today because my group is out of town and I live close to this course. All I can say is that it is way worse than a few years ago which is hard to do and honestly is an embarrassment Delray. Would assume that someone should care and if so, please do something about this cow pasture. read more

The golf course gets no stars. The conditions is poor all around and almost unplayable. It's very sad that the beautiful city of Delray Beach has allowed this Donald Ross course to become a cow pasture. read more

This place is a joke. The course is littered with abounded buildings and ghetto apartment complex's . The greens are torn the shreds with weeds out the a$$. The website says they close at 6pm and they are closed up at 5pm. One of the ancient and decaying staff members tells me to come back tomorrow because they will be open untill 6. I come at 5 the next day and they're locked up and another corpse tells me to come back at 6 tomorrow. This place is garbage I hope they go out of business and build a Walmart ontop of it read more

Such a beautiful view! I have golfed here several times, and have had lunch here as well. The food portions are huge, and they are delicious! The servers inside are helpful, quick, and friendly. It doesn't take long to make the food, and the cooks know what they are doing. The workers outside on the course are just are friendly and helpful. The course is fun to play on as well. read more

See all

The course is in horrible shape, most greens are either dead or on life support with huge patches of no grass. It is too bad because it is a great design and layout, it could be something for the city to be proud of. For the same $35 off-season, you can play Osprey or Southwinds in Boca which are 100X better. The only bright spot here is the staff. The guys in the golf shop, the starter and the bartender in the lounge are all very friendly, welcoming and show great hospitality. I do hope Delray has a plan and some money to bring this course back to what it could.....and should be read more

I have been coming here for 15 plus years. The management company is a complete joke and doesn't care about the workers or customers the city should be ashamed. The entire place is a liability when you drive around the course i felt unsafe golfing. First off i would love to complement the bag guys up front they are the only positive part about my visits for the last many years . Les and Johnny are great guys also the people inside the pro shop are great. The Manager of this place needs to step it up because this place has drastically declined and customers shouldn't have to deal with a bad course. The city of delray beach should be ashamed that their name is on this. If a management company runs this place they should be ashamed and fired by the city. read more

So cool to see Bryson Dechambeau play here! Hell of a video!!! I'd love to meet him sometime!

Needs investment to bring this gem back to life. It pains me to say that I would not recommend playing this course to any semi serious golfer at the moment. It's in serious disrepair. read more

First, it is a public course...an historic gem: Donald Ross- 1923 The leftist/socialist city council will put out public money for hip-hop festivals, but not this beautiful course...to them it's a lot of real estate that they could fill up with apartment buildings (and get a developer to give them perks and $$$). The staff is friendly and helpful - both inside and outside. I love the course! read more

Very nice course, challenging and well maintained. The staff from the bag guys to the pro shop are very friendly and the starters are great.

Two stars is being generous. Good serivice in the cart barn, pro shop, and restaurant, but the course is in terrible shape. Some greens who a lot of disease. Male players can be obnxious. Two of them my GF and her friend they "didn't belong'' on the course. Hopefully the redevelpment/renovation plan will make things better. read more

Course is in horrendous shape and yet they still charge 60$+ for a 4pm tee time. There are way to many courses in the area to be spending your money here. Not even being dramatic when I say I wouldn't play this course for anything more than 30$ and that's pushing it. Also it doesn't help that the guy in the pro shop is a your typical arrogant know it all golf douche. read more

Had 2 groups of 3 playing separate. Course was backed up so we all teed off together on 10 to try to get things moving. Starter came out, cursed us out and told us to go home. Don't go here. read more

Mid July, Walk-on 9 hole single after 3pm, $31. I realize this course finally has a plan to improve but this place is a disgrace to Donald Ross and $31 for nine holes here is a bold move. Goat trail. read more

This place should pay me to play here. It's a sh*t hole the old men running it DO NOT KNOW how to run a golf course, rude, disrespectful, and unnecessary with the stuff they say and do. The greens look like tee boxes. They need to get new grounds crew. The course would be nice if they could maintain the grass just 5% better. The vibes are off the pro shop is outdated the carts are outdated. They should stop worrying about customers breaking rules, bringer coolers and not another bag for one person (wow so bad right)? They should focus more on creating a enjoyable experience and go fix the tee boxes oops I mean the greens. read more

Taste: hosted event, everything was fine other than awful oj Service: very polite, and appropriately quiet, though some waiters do not know how to keep their fingers away from the lips of glasses Decor: pleasant, typical Colonial revival attempt, generic stackable cushioned chairs Price per quality: unknown Beers: unknown read more

They should be ashamed charging $60 to play this course. Tee boxes are atrocious, half the greens are bad, no grass on fairways (weeds), and the bunkers have a little sand over dirt. This course is disgusting and very disappointing. Close it. read more

Where do I begin to explain the amount of disrespect we were treated with from minute one stepping out of the car. If anyone of actual importance at this god awful course is reading this the first improvement would be new management starting with Jim Mackie the "head pro" and then a complete tear down of the entire course maybe spending more than $10,000 on the course and its amenities. Municipal is a absolute travesty when it comes to this course and it really makes me upset that I come down here on vacation with my wife and they have the nerve to treat us like this. NOT A FAMILY GOLF COURSE....Sexist is not a descriptive enough word to describe the way we were treated. Simply put... if I could leave a no star review I would. read more

This is a great course in the $50/$60 range. Greens are adequate (you get what you pay for), carts are good, and staff is pretty helpful. The course itself is fun too read more

This course is in severe condition and needs serious help. The staff was friendly though so two stars. Driving range mats were completely destroyed, to the point where you're basically hitting out of the rough. The greens were patchy and extremely slow, there is no discerning between fairway and rough, and the bunkers seem to be filled with Home Depot play sand. Even our cart was broken, making a horrendous noise every time we moved it, and the rain flap wouldn't stay up out of the way. read more

If I could leave no stars I would. I made my tee time for a twosome a day before and I get there and right off the bat I'm treated like crap, I had never been there before and I got old men pointing me in every direction with an attitude, I get to the counter and this old man with a stick up him and so I pay for my stuff and then this other worker, old man, looks at me and tells me I'm playing with a random twosome during coronavirus. I asked for my money back immediately and he looked at me as if I was joking. This place is ran by old men who don't know how to manage a golf course and are also disrespectful. The course was absolutely empty and your gonna pair me with a twosome I've never met during corona? No thanks. I will never go back and will always talk bad about Delray Beach Golf Course. Course looks like it's going into the ground anyway. read more

One star is being generous, the tee boxes are similar to the rough, the fairways have major patches often with no grass and if that's not enough both the tee box and fairways are better than the greens. Clearly the grounds manager is out 2 lunch and frankly the management requires a change. read more

Everyone giving this place heat for the condition of the course there are courses that are in much nicer condition for sometimes double or triple the cost. Love coming here at 4:30 for $12 and just working on my game. If i wind up in a divot in the fairway i simply move my ball a bit or find myself in an area the course isn't well maintained I give myself the best lie possible and go from there. Range is open late and if you get a key you can play until theirs literally no light. Putting and chipping green here add to the options to practice your game. Only thing missing would be a place to practice bunker shots. read more

If you are a girl do not go to this course. I went with my boyfriend and some friends visiting from out of town. It had been raining previously but stopped, so humidity was high and the weather was warming up. That being said, I removed my crew neck and was wearing thick strapped tank top underneath, which showed about an inch of my stomach. The only other girl that was there decided to do the same. It was hot and humid and we were overheating. We played about 5 holes when head pro Jim McKay drove out and was shameful and disrespectful and made my friend and I feel awful. There was nobody else on the course at this time. He told us we were not at the beach and should dress more modestly if we wanted to be on his course. He then said that me and my friend need to go wait in the clubhouse while the men finish their game. This was the first warning he gave us and when we expressed that we would put our jackets back on he said "I can't trust you. One and done." I have never felt more shamed for an outfit and it was literally a tank top and golf skirt. They then escorted me and my girlfriend off of the course. The encounter we had was so disrespectful the boys quickly followed and asked for a refund because they no longer wanted to play on this course, which they refused and said they could give them credit if they wanted to come back. It is 2022, even school dress codes are not as strict as this and I have never felt more disrespected, embarrassed, and small. I get that they have rules, but these so called rules for dress code were not posted anywhere and weren't mentioned while paying in the pro shop. They decided less than half way through our game to shame us girls and kick us off the course. Take your time, money, and friends somewhere else. You aren't missing anything special, not to mention the golf course itself was in horrible condition, maybe focus on keeping your grass green rather that an inch of stomach showing. Thanks Jim for ruining our last day with our friends that we never get to see! read more

$7.50 for a full basket of golf balls, and barely anyone at the driving range made it a perfect day at Delray Beach Golf Club. I went around 2:30pm today (Sunday). Now, I just have to play a round, and eat at the restaurant to complete this review. :) read more

Without a doubt the poorest maintained golf facility in Palm beach county. Save your time and your money

Just played 18 holes with friends from up north. Purse was in good shape. Everyone was polite and super attentive to our needs. Ladies tee boxes are grass but who cares! We had a great time. Thank you to the team ther! read more

This course is mostly populated by unskilled and/or beginner golfers. Singles beware. You must be two on a cart and this could mean being forced to ride with a cigarette or cigar smoker who has also been booked at your time. Only option is to wait for the next opening on the tee sheet (which in my case was over an hour later!) and hope for a non-smoking cart partner. The greens feature many unrepaired pitch marks, cleat scrapes and general bumpiness, which makes for very poor putting conditions. Very discouraging when you are trying to shoot a score. Most tee boxes are uneven, and/or missing grass. Lots of unraked areas in bunkers. My round took over 5 hours! read more

I haven't played a round of golf here but I've been to the range twice. Balls are terrible, they need to be replaced.. a quarter of the balls I got were cut or damaged. About the worst range I've ever been to. I realize this isn't a private country club but some decent range balls would be nice. read more

I've played this course numerous times usually on Saturday mornings. Normally I have to wait 15 to 20 minutes at most tee box's. But today that wasn't the case at first. I have been playing golf for 20 years and I have never been treated with so much disrespect by a golf course employee in that time. My foursome was playing at normal golf pace with a group in front of us and a group behind us. Actually spaced out very well. We were approached by a ranger on the 6th green and we were told that there was 10 phone calls made about our speed and that we had 5 minutes to be on the 7th green. I couldn't believe what I just heard. I found out later that the four some behind us consisted of 4 members of this poorly maintained course. The Ranger then forced us to let them play through. We then spent the remainder of the day waiting for the four some to hit there balls so we could hit ours. I will never go back to this course again. Which is a shame because it's so close to home. I do have to add this as well. The tee box's were destroyed and the fair ways looked the same as the rough. Pathetic. read more

This has become one of our top two public courses in the area. The course is challenging but not too much so for an average high teen handicap golfer. the greens are typical Donald Ross domes which makes putting a challenge. The greens are quick but consistent and true. The course is well maintained and pace of play is variable. We like that they participate in EZ Links which makes the reasonable greens fees even better. A great deal is their food which is very fresh and also very reasonably priced. read more

I had my wedding here and I loved it. Beth was so helpful and really cares about her clients. The only downfall I had was that one of the bartenders in the bar area is very very rude... We came to finalize our wedding plans and bill and Beth bought our lunch.. If I was a first time guest... before booking this venue, she definitely would have scared me away. However, I wasn't But I was told by several Guests at my wedding that the bartenders were pretty rude... so I often wonder if she actually worked my wedding. (I was too busy to even notice). Other than that... the venue was amazing. read more

Was hoping to get an appointment with Beth to tour the wedding venue. She quickly advised me that there were no open Saturdays in October of 2015 through email. Even though I specifically asked for a phone call. Ok even though it's almost a year away I can probably believe it because of how cheap the whole venue sounds. Not much included. But she never called to ask if we can switch our dates or offer to put us on a waiting list. Just 2 short emails stating all Saturdays are booked for October 2015. (I guess my 60 guests are not worth the commission) And we're in December 2014 still. *Sign. I guess I'll get married at Newport Beachside Resort instead with Honeymoon Suite included. Thanks Beth, for your professionalism and dedication to engaged couples considering your golf course view venue. Way to damper a happy moment. Kate read more

We had our wedding at this venue on December 15, 2018 and it was magical. Beth was amazing and made sure we got the best experience. She was the wedding coordinator on our big day and she made sure that everything was organized and well done. She has been doing this for so many years that she knows very well how to handle a great wedding. This venue is so nice (indoor and outdoor event space), affordable, spacious with free parking, and with excellent food! Thank you so much Beth and your amazing team for helping us make our dream wedding come true. read more

Delray Beach Golf Course is a great place to take the kids for an afternoon. The driving range is great and the course is ok despite the raccoons. I let that issue slide. At about the 13th hole a rabid raccoon came out of the bushes and chased us around. We decided to grab a bite to eat after the incident. The wait staff was fine and everything was good until we got the food. My sons chicken came out pink and highly undercooked. We sent it back to the kitchen and asked for a new one. The one they gave us was black and over cooked. This golf course is great if you are looking to contract rabies and/or salmonella. read more

Beth did an amazing job she is so organized. Service and food was great , no complains from anyone. I would defiantly recommend using this venue. read more

Went to use the driving range the other day. Disappointed that they crammed everyone together and didn't have half the space opened. On top of that, the range hadn't been cut in a while, it was like hitting out of the rough. Not the best range but they get away being the only public range in the area. Wish they cared to do better. read more
