Eagle/Osprey Course
Okeeheelee Golf Course


About this course
Okeeheelee Golf Course operates as a public facility in West Palm Beach, serving the Palm Beach County golf community since the mid-1970s. The property features two 18-hole courses—Eagle and Osprey—designed by Roy Case, a Florida-based architect who worked extensively on municipal and daily-fee layouts throughout the state during that era. The courses occupy land within the larger Okeeheelee Park complex, which includes recreational amenities beyond golf. The Eagle and Osprey courses play through relatively flat South Florida terrain characteristic of the region, with water hazards factoring prominently into the strategic design. Case routed both layouts to incorporate lakes and drainage features common to courses built in this part of the state, where managing water is essential both for playability and environmental reasons. The courses feature bermudagrass playing surfaces suited to the subtropical climate and year-round growing season. As a county-operated facility, Okeeheelee serves a broad range of golfers, from beginners to experienced players seeking affordable access to regulation golf. The dual-course setup allows the facility to accommodate significant play volume while providing variety for regular visitors. The courses reflect the practical design priorities of Florida public golf from their development period: straightforward routing, manageable maintenance requirements, and layouts that move players efficiently while offering legitimate challenge through hazard placement and green complexes.

Getting there
Most visitors to Okeeheelee Golf Course arrive through Palm Beach International Airport, a quick fifteen-minute drive west into the suburban sprawl of West Palm Beach. The course sits just off Forest Hill Boulevard, tucked within the expansive Okeeheelee Park complex - a rare expanse of green amid strip malls and residential developments that define this stretch of South Florida. The transition is abrupt but welcome: one moment you're navigating the everyday pulse of West Palm's commercial corridors, the next you're pulling into a palm-lined municipal sanctuary where the hum of the city fades beneath the rustle of trade winds and the distant call of waterbirds over the park's namesake lake.
