Gated golf community that offers a picturesque setting and proximity to amenities
Ironhorse is a gated golf community in eastern Palm Beach County that offers an attractive residential setting and access to an array of outdoor recreation. The community, minutes from Dyer Park, is built around an 18-hole golf course and bordered by the Grassy Waters Preserve. Residents enjoy an appealing level of privacy while also being in proximity to major roadways, shopping centers and the Atlantic coast. “I don’t even live there and I can’t speak highly enough of it. It’s one of my favorite neighborhoods,” says Aimee Burroughs, Realtor and team leader at The Agency. “It’s a private little oasis that is close to everything.”
Variety of homes surrounds golf course and lakes
The picturesque golf layout that winds around the community’s subdivisions is complemented by several man-made lakes. Large homes with striking architecture stand out on oversized lots that offer either waterfront or golf course views and typically feature in-ground pools. Smaller villa-style homes here are built closer together, with small front yards and backyards that also often have pools. “There’s a little bit for everyone and every budget,” says Helen Bassie, a Realtor with Treasure Property Group LLC who sells homes in the community. All homes come standard with driveways, attached garages and barrel-tile roofs, which help protect against severe weather during hurricane season and can lessen insurance rates. Prices range from the mid-$600,000s to nearly $ 2 million. Monthly HOA fees range from $240 to $498. “The price points right now are really good in comparison to other golf communities,” says Burroughs, who regularly sells homes in Ironhorse.
Many of the homes in Ironhorse have golf course views with private pools.

Grassy Waters Preserve, Dyer Park are nearby attractions
The Preserve at Ironhorse’s 18-hole course is set amid wetlands. The 12th through 14th holes run along the community’s largest lake, highlighting the challenge and beauty of the 7,187-yard, par-72 layout. The course was redesigned in 2022 by famed architect Rees Jones and attracts members who don’t live in the community. “The golf course is very well known. It’s popular among the locals,” Bassie says. In addition to golf, members enjoy tennis and pickleball courts, a fitness center and a club pool. Golfers can take lessons from certified PGA professionals, and tennis players can take private lessons. Membership is not required of homeowners, so non-golfers can enjoy the setting without the added costs. “If you want the feel of a private golf community without having to pay extra, Ironhorse is an amazing neighborhood,” Burroughs says. The clubhouse offers on-site dining and hosts social events.
Immediately west of the community is Grassy Waters Preserve, a wetland ecosystem that covers 23 square miles and provides much of the county’s freshwater supply. This section of the Everglades contains marshland, cypress swamps and drier hammock habitats, all accessible by foot, bike and non-gas-powered watercraft. Visitors might see alligators, bobcats and river otters among a diverse collection of native animals and plants.
About 2 miles east of the community is Dyer Park, a sprawling green space filled with a variety of amenities. Visitors can fish the lake, ride miles of mountain biking trails, play basketball, baseball and soccer and enjoy children’s playscapes. The park is also a popular spot for flying remote control planes, with a specialized hangar and runway located there. The adjacent Winding Waters Natural Area is a 548-acre preserve that is popular among birdwatchers. Its wetlands can be traveled by kayak or canoe. The nearby SWA Greenway Trail System features a butterfly garden, dragonfly trail and rookery for nesting birds. The Intracoastal Waterway, which is a haven for boaters, and the Atlantic oceanfront are within 8 miles of the community. Lakeside Park and John D. MacArthur Beach State Park are destinations that offer beach access and more.
The basketball courts in Dyer Park are well-maintained and perfect for any game.
Grassy Waters Preserve can be found in the outskirts of Ironhorse with a plethora of life.
