Ballenisles blends PGA heritage with Palm Beach luxury
Surrounded by all the shopping and dining available along PGA Boulevard, Palm Beach County's Ballenisles community stands out with a rich history, a central location and opulent facilities. Ballenisles came to be in 1964, developed by Florida magnate John D. MacArthur as the PGA National Golf Club. However, if there's one year to remember here, it's 1971. That same year, when the community's club was known simply as PGA National and served as the home of the PGA of America, it became the epicenter of the golf world by playing host to four major golf events: the PGA Seniors', the PGA Championship — won by Jack Niklaus, the PGA Tour Qualifying School and, lastly, the World Cup of golf. Though the PGA decamped to a new facility in 1973, Ballenisles remains a premier golf destination. "Ballenisles has a deep history in our area of being the go-to country club for full-time and part-time residents alike," says Holly Meyer Lucas, a local Realtor with Compass Florida. "It has a great balance between full-time and part-time residents. What makes it so special is that it has the elegance you'd expect from a country club of its prestige while maintaining that South Florida casual, easy-living vibe."
