Belle Glade Municipal Golf Club
About
Belle Glade Municipal Golf Club (formerly known as Sugar Cane Golf Club), as its name would imply, sprawls across western Palm Beach County's vast sugar cane fields. Opened in 1987, the golf course features mature landscaping and a classic design that is challenging but playable. Water hazards come into play several times throughout the course and there are also numerous strategically placed traps concentrated along the greensides. One of the best aspects of the golf course that makes it stand out from others in Palm Beach County is the peace and quiet offered by its secluded setting. Golfers are surrounded by wildlife including alligators and bald eagles rather than cars and homes. It is one of the county's best-kept secrets.

great course of you can figure out where 1 is.
Overall the course was very entertaining but the signage at every hole location is very bad, starting with where number one is. We literally were shooting at the wrong green on several holes. Easily fixed by new signs.
Fun day
The day sunny, little breeze and almost no one on the course. Course conditions the grass seemed dried out, or at least cut too short especially around the greens. I would love to see thicker rough, and thicker grass within 25 ft of the green, with fringe.. the grass had fluff in patches, just seemed to be cut all the same could not tell rough from fairways. Many open areas so cross winds can be challenging. Because the course is out of the way, it’s a hidden gem with no a lot of golfers on the course at times unlike many popular courses.
Great Greens
Hard Course to target tee shots on or to get distance, but the greens are exceptoional for a course at this price. If you know the layout, this is a fun course.
Cane
Course surrounded by sugar cane fields
Hidden water in play on several holes. Only complaint is holes not clearly marked. It was easy to go the wrong way once cart paths crossed. Signage would fix this problem.
Love it out there.....
I always love my time when I go out to play Belle Glade. Just an overall great experience. I live in North Palm Beach County had to head out west to Belle Glade is very relaxing, the courses I was in good shape and the people out there are so friendly. Well worth the drive and look forward to my next Round
Sporty
Nice course course to work on your game.lets you use gap wedge through driver in your bag.lets yourself be creative.
Fun course. Back nine much more interesting
Course is really nice but I wish they had posted that greens were recently punched.
A day amongst the sugarcane fields
I was pleasantly suIrprised with course. The back is more interesting than the front and the 18th hole is very tough.. The course was in good condition and the greens were rolling fast. The only caveat is the distance i travelled which was 50 miles, The lady at check in was very nice and explained the layout to me. I would play it again.
Great for the price
This isn't a pga course by any means but for the cost you can't complain. Very nice course. No complaints at all.
Hidden gem
Great course, definitely a hike from WPB but well worth it considering you can play IN SEASON for $30. Course is in good shape all considered and no back up on a Sunday morning tee time. Ground is a lot harder than you find in south Florida for some reason which means you ball really bounce when it lands, reminds me a lot golfing in northern states. Oh and hotdogs are $1
Fun course!
The course was fun I found the front 9 a lil harder and challenging then the back , but if you like to rip the ball then you will enjoy the back 9 on this course. The greens are well maintained with nice medium speed . The lady upfront at check in was very friendly and helpful, will definitely play there again.
PS.. for HOT Deal price we paid it was a definite great day of golf , I’ll definitely be back.
Be coming an annual have too
The uniqueness of the location and course has a draw to me..The sugarcane fields and canals with 18 nicely designed holes intertwined....Wildlife abound...Saw a couple of gators last year but played too early for them to take their sunbath!! This course will remain on this snowbirds list...
Belle Glades hidden Gem
Great course! Been coming here for the last 4 yrs. From Ft Lauderdale Beautiful Fun, and fast paced Golf course. They're working continuously on the course, and is in the greatest shape it's ever been. Keep your eyes open around water. Huge alligators. D
Best Value
It is what it is...$30 for 18 never have to wait never gets backed up...pack your cooler and send it...front 9 simple layout back 9 is tougher and longer...my go to course when i want to not be bothered and just enjoy the game. I have played dozens of courses in palm beach and martin county and i recomend belle glade to anyone.
Great course for beginners.
Friendly staff (for the most part), Wide open fairways, and usually great pace of play.
P.S. that 18th hole is an extremely long par 4 that is very hard to birdie.
Solid no-frills course
Well maintained, friendly staff, and good pace of play. Nothing fancy but the greens were in good condition and course was fun. Can't beat the value.
