Origins

Palmetto Golf Course was designed by Dick Wilson and built in 1959 by developers Porter, Russell and Wagor on a 121-acre site in southern Miami-Dade County.

Did You Know?
Miami-Dade County purchased the course in 1967, eight years after it was built.

Design Philosophy

A serpentine canal system is integrated into the routing, running across and alongside tree-lined fairways. The water network is a defining strategic and physical feature of the property.

Development

Miami-Dade County purchased Palmetto in 1967 and incorporated it into the county's public golf system. The facility subsequently added a lighted 22-position driving range, lighted putting green and supporting clubhouse amenities. More recent county work has included fairway and clubhouse improvements.

Today

Palmetto remains an 18-hole, par-70 municipal course open to the public, with online tee-time reservations, practice facilities, instruction, equipment rental, a golf shop and on-site food service.
