Palmetto Pine at Palmetto Pine Country Club

Palmetto Pine, situated in the heart of Cape Coral, is a classic Florida course embodying the state's relaxed yet challenging golfing spirit. Conceived during the surge of recreational golf course construction in the 1960s, Palmetto Pine presents a largely open, parkland layout.

The original design offers a traditional play where subtle doglegs and strategically placed water hazards encourage thoughtful shot making over sheer power. While not known for extreme length, the course demands strategic positioning to navigate its mature trees and the prevailing winds that sweep across the southwest Florida landscape. While the course has never hosted a major professional event, it remains a popular destination for local tournaments and competitive amateur play.

Membership at Palmetto Pine fosters a community deeply rooted in the traditions of the game. Longtime members often share stories from the club's early days, with particular fondness for tales of impromptu twilight rounds and the convivial atmosphere around the nineteenth hole. A signature clam chowder, a recipe passed down through generations of club chefs, has become a beloved staple, often mentioned with the same reverence as a well-struck drive.
