Teresa Hill Marchal claimed a 500-acre Spanish land grant along the Intracoastal Waterway in northeast Florida -- a wild and lovely stretch of moss-draped hammocks, coastal plains and pristine tidal marshes. Today, that land forms the heart and soul of this exceptional residential community. Palencia lies on the west bank of the Intracoastal Waterway and Tolomato River, across from the 12,000 acre Guana River State Park and world-famous Ponte Vedra Beach. Carved out between centuries-old oak trees, the championship Arthur Hills golf course offers a challenging experience. The breezes from the Intracoastal Waterway require golfers to have good shot accuracy for this course. Meticulously maintained, Palencia ’s golf course offers many breath-taking views along the marsh, wetlands, preserves and the Tolomato River.
