Golf in Palatka

Palatka is a small city in Putnam County on the St. Johns River in northeast Florida, one of the river's notable commercial centers in the pine flatwoods and marsh terrain. Palatka Golf Club serves the local residential population in a small county seat that functions as a quiet river-town community in the north Florida interior. No hole-count data is in public records for the course. Palatka sits on a bluff above the St. Johns River, and the Ravine Gardens State Park below the bluff is known for its suspension bridge and the azalea festival that draws visitors in the spring. The county serves a modest golf market sustained by the small permanent residential base of this north Florida community.
