About The Palms Golf Club at Forest Lakes

The Palms Golf Club at Forest Lakes is a public course located in Sarasota, off Beneva Road in the Forest Lakes neighborhood of central Sarasota. The course plays through a classic mature Sarasota suburban landscape with established palm and oak tree corridors, multiple water hazards, and the kind of intimate, tree-framed golf experience that has become increasingly rare as newer courses prioritize open designs. Forest Lakes is a well-established Sarasota neighborhood, and the course has long been a community fixture serving both residents and the broader Sarasota public golf market. Sarasota is one of Florida's most culturally sophisticated mid-size cities — arts, culinary, and outdoor recreation are all central to its identity — and The Palms provides a golfer-friendly option that complements this active lifestyle culture. The central Beneva Road location provides easy access from multiple parts of Sarasota and I-75.

History

The Palms Golf Club at Forest Lakes has been part of the Sarasota golfing landscape for several decades, developed within the Forest Lakes neighborhood as a public course serving the community. Sarasota's growth as a cultural and retirement destination drove steady demand for accessible public golf, and The Palms has maintained its role as a reliable everyday option in a market that also includes upscale resort and semi-private alternatives.

Sarasota residents and cultural visitors who want an affordable, tree-lined community round in a well-established central Sarasota neighborhood setting.
