Plantation Palms at Plantation Palms Golf Club

Plantation Palms Golf Club sits in Land O Lakes, a community in the northern Tampa Bay area of Florida, where residential development expanded significantly during the late twentieth and early twenty-first centuries. Dave Harman designed the course, which serves primarily as a daily-fee facility within a region known for accessible year-round golf. The layout reflects the characteristic terrain of west-central Florida: relatively flat land punctuated by wetlands, lakes, and native vegetation including palms and pines.

The routing incorporates water features on multiple holes, a common element in Florida golf design that provides both strategic challenge and necessary stormwater management. Fairways typically offer generous landing areas suited to recreational play, while greenside bunkering and water placement create decision points for approach shots. The course operates within the competitive landscape of the greater Tampa area, where numerous public and semi-private facilities serve both residents and winter visitors.

Plantation Palms functions as a neighborhood amenity and public golf option in a corridor that has seen substantial population growth. The club offers standard practice facilities and a clubhouse with food and beverage service typical of Florida daily-fee operations. Conditioning and playability vary seasonally, with the subtropical climate allowing for year-round maintenance cycles. The course provides a straightforward golf experience without particular tournament history or architectural distinction, serving its market as one of many options for golfers in the northern Tampa suburbs.
