With over 200 courses in Palm Beach County, architect John Sandford knew he would have to create something special to get attention. At Madison Green Country Club he did just that, creating a unique course that combines many of the best features from local courses, with a few surprises all its own.

Over a thousand palm trees line the course as do over 100 bunkers and 42 acres of shimmering lakes.

One very interesting aspect of the design is that not only does the course get longer as you move back in tees, but the shot angles also get increasingly challenging. This means that the good player not only has further to hit but must also place the ball more accurately on the fairway in order to set himself up for his next shot.

A young teen, his father, his mother and even his grandfather playing together from four different sets of tees will all experience a fair challenge for their respective games that still remains enjoyable!

Slow, rough going

Started late (though we were all present 10 minutes early), and were constantly held up by 2 groups in front of us (this was at 11am on a weekday)—not great. Took 2.5 hours to get through 9... given the course wasn't in very good shape and the cart girl didn't come around for the first 9 holes, it was not the most enjoyable afternoon.

Deception at Madison…

The course was overall in a very poor condition …
Tee offs, faiways, signs, carpaths, greens, bunkers and specially the waste bunkers were distressing.
It was in way better conditions when I’ve played that course in 2017, when also I did a hole in one at # 6 !

Great layout but a bit dry conditions

Course layout was excellent. Conditions were a bit dry. Overall a fun experience. If conditions were better, then worth the $$.

Not great

The fairways were in bad shape. Many of them were brown. Some were nice. Greens were in nice shape. Tee boxes were ok. Was disappointed. The pace of play was very slow. We were waiting on every shot.

A good golf course in poor condition

I’ve played this golf course for many years. The layout is great and there are many interesting holes. However, the course is in very poor condition. Perhaps the cloudy conditions and excess rain has contributed to the problem. However, something must be done to get the course back to respectable condition.

Challenging Layout

If you like bunkers, this is your course. Most holes do not provide you with any bail out so your only option is to hit it straight. Well if we all did that, we'd be on tour. There's lots of undulation so you get quite a bit of side hill lies. Some of the holes are visually daunting, especially the par 5 second that has water in front and to the left with bunkers to the right in front of an everglades like area. So hit it dead straight into the 25+ yard wide landing area that slopes towards the water. Good luck. This hole causes a backup which lasted all day making our round more than 4.5 hours long. There's a lot of grain on the greens which were in good shape. If you're into the grain, pound it. Down grain, tap it. Overall, not a fun experience as there's no room for error.

Good layout poor condition

Always enjoyed this track in the past. Unfortunately the condition of the course has declined a lot. Most fairways had little grass, some none at all. Almost every green had sandy and bare spots making putting inconsistent. Golf staff was very friendly. Service at the "MarBar" (19th hole) was poor. Servers were young not seem to understand service.

Fairways were barren. Very little grass. Maybe an issue with the irrigation system. Unacceptable with as much rain as we’ve had
