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.

Fun, good value, enjoyable

Last time here was about 7 years ago. When every other course is $60-$125, Belle Glade Muni is still a great value a $30. Is it Mirasol? No. But if you're not an elitist, or you just want to have a quick casual round with your buddy (or in my case, my son home from college who is just picking up the game), it's a fun track. Small greens, maybe not the truest rolling, but again, a fun day with quick pace, AND you are actually encouraged to bring your own cooler! I would definitely come again.

NY'ers playing this course

We got lost on every other hole. This course is BEGGING for markers - "Hole # x - this way" (& an arrow pointing to next hole). Everything was really nice but getting lost every other hole was NOT fun.
Fortunately people on the course pointed us in the right direction most of the time.

Nice conurse. Great value

This place was packed this morning. Groups going off both tees. Great value for the price. Greens aren't the greatest but are green and rather small. Played many years ago and glad to see Belle Glade has finally put some monies into this place. Not a bad place to visit. But you are paying $30. As long as you remember that you will have a good time.

One more for this Snowbird

Having played once previously I couldnt resist a Golf Now crazy cheap deal to play this course 1 more time.Definitely worth the ride through the Sugarcsne ..Saw gators and all sorts of different birds while playing a uniquely situated layout between the canals surrounded by the sugarcane fields...its a Munie and not manicured but worth the experience....

Belle glade gem

Beautiful course, scenery is amazing eagles, alligators, owls. Course has been fixed up a lot. Greens run about a 10. This is not your fancy schmancy golf course where they cater to your every dollar. Country golf at its finest. With beautiful fairways undulating greens. I have a blast everytime I come here. Front 9 is amazing back nine plays very long, sip play from the white tees

Great value

Very windy day, insanely windy actually. The course layout is pretty good, there’s not a whole lot of trouble to get into but enough to keep it interesting. Fairways are in great shape, tee boxes as well. Greens were in very good shape but not perfect. For the money it is a great value. Looking forward to playing there again.

The course was a pleasure to play. The last time we played there it was still called SugarCane and was very
mediocre. That no longer exists. It is a solid 4 star in all aspects. I will play this course whenever we are in the area.

Last chance for Country Golf

Belle Glade Golf Course it's the last affordable option for local players rural golf two separate nines a mile apart and built 60 years apart of course conditions are Lush wide green corridors that are neither rough nor Fairway the greens are small and fast not perfect but good the golf course is immensely improved over the last 2 years from unplayable to surprisingly good so if you like country club golf it's not worth the drive but if you recently lost your job or are retired on a fixed income maybe come out late in the afternoon and walk 9

Fun course

We had the whole course to ourselves. Greens are a little rough and slow. But, overall course conditions are good. The newer back 9 is an excellent layout, that is both tough and fun.

Worst golf course I have ever played

I never write reviews for courses that are in bad shape because there is usually a good reason (weather event, drought, disease). This will be my first one.
This is the worst golf course I have ever played.
The tee boxes were in bad need of a cutting and probably could use a rebuild.
The fairways had not been cut in at least a week.
The greens showed signs of not having been aerated in years. Half of most of the greens was dirt, not sand.
Farmer Fran is trying to take care of this course.
Someone who knows how do upkeep a golf course should be hired immediately or the course should be left to nature.
I will never play here again.

I have played there several times, although very few people are encountered, the course is lacking maintenance. Grass is rough and greens unkept. The other issue is the cost considering the distance to travel, for a public course in Palm Beach County it is one of the most expensive considering the course condition.
