East at Jacaranda Golf Club
Rating Snapshot
About
The East Course is one of two four-star rated championship courses at Jacaranda Golf Club. Both golf courses have a tropical landscape covered with ponds, canals, colorful landscaping, and of course plenty of swaying palms. The East Course is the longer of the two courses. It has served as host for several PGA and USGA tournaments and qualifying events. The layout features tree-lined, undulating fairways and raised, sloped greens. It offers a challenge at almost every turn with 80 bunkers strategically placed throughout and water hazards on 15 holes. Some of the bunkers are built into the mounding complexes, giving them sod faces and high lips that are difficult to navigate. Those that manage them successfully though will be rewarded with excellent scoring opportunities. The popularity of the two golf courses has affirmed Jacaranda as one of the best places to play in southeast Florida.

Great Layout. Good Condition
Always enjoy playing at Jacaranda East. Enjoy the layout and the course is in good condition. Greens roll well despite all the rain. Pace of play was decent. You need to be playing well to score well
It was fine
Not a bad golf course. First thing I saw was a sign saying "course is not responsible for lost or stolen items" and the whole place kind of made me feel like I just MIGHT get something stolen. It was fine just way too many other places I would prefer .

WHY
Why is a course with such a good layout and in very nice shape everywhere that is green can the traps be SOOOO BAD.
They are the worst sand traps in Florida
If you're lucky, they will settle in a place where they're like rock quarries. If you're unlucky, they your ball with rest on top of the white mesh or you can't find it since it will have sunk 6 inches deep along the sides that the crew rakes
Thank you for taking the time to post a review. We're glad you enjoy the majority of our course conditions. We've been hit pretty hard with rain this summer and as a result the bunkers do get washed out and can be difficult to maintain. We appreciate your feedback and hope to see you on the course again soon.
Jacaranda East
Played this course about a week before and was the second time playing. All as previous tee boxes fairways in great shape. Greens very marked with un repaired pitch marks. Overall good golf challenge. Staff very friendly and accommodating. Will definitely come back next year during my vacation. Greens did run true and were relatively fast if you could avoid the pitch marks. I don't understand why golfers cannot repair their own pitch marks its quite simple these people would be removed from my home course in the UK.
Jacaranda East
Staff all very accomodating and friendly. Tee boxes fairways in great shape. Greens good condition however LOTS of un repaired pitch marks. Had to repair at least four per green on my putting line. Not the course fault players please repair pitch marks you are ruining a lovely course. Greens quite fast and true when pitch marks repaired. Drinks cart seemed to be on hand when required which was good on a hot day. Overall good test of golf for all levels. Would recommend to all.
Thank you so much for the 5 star rating and excellent review. We certainly try to encourage everyone to repair their divots and ball marks and we work with our maintenance staff to repair those areas when they have time. We hope to see you when you're back in the area.
Just awesome.
Basically one of the best golf courses in Florida worth every penny
Awesome! We are so glad you loved the course and we look forward to your next visit.
Nice course
This course in one of the best condition of manteined than I have played in Florida .
Very frendly and highly recomended to enjoy golf course.
Thank you so much for the excellent review! We work hard to provide superior customer service paired with pristine course conditions. It's always nice to know when we've succeeded!
beautiful
The course was in excellent conditon. The greens rolled smoothly, the fairway looked like carpet and the colurse layout was challenging and fun. You have a choice of 5 tee positions and they really change the difficulty of the course. I wish I had a course like this in NY. I highly recommend it.
Thank you so much for the awesome review. We hope you'll visit again next time your in Fort Lauderdale!
Great course for the money
Played this course 3 times in 3 days and each time had a wonderful time. Staff was very friendly and pace of play was excellent. Course, and especially the greens were in great shape considering how much rain there was recently. Fairways and greens were in much better shape than Doral.
This is definitely the type of review we love to receive! It's always nice to know we exceeded your expectations in course conditions AND customer service. We are so glad to hear you enjoyed yourself so much that you played 3 times! We look forward to your next visit.

Challenging golf course
My husband (hcp 6) and me (hcp16)
Played twice in Jacaranda in our golf trip vacation, we decided play again because the fairways and the greens are and the best conditions you can play.
The East course is longer than the West but also a beautiful course.
Thank you so much for the great review. We are so glad you enjoyed the course conditions and that you made Jacaranda part of your South Florida vacation! We hope to see you again in the future.
Beautiful course
The fairways are like a brand new rug, and the greens are immaculately kept.
Thank you so much for the great review! We're glad you enjoy the conditions of the course and we hope to see you again soon!
Don't pass on this great course !
Challenging yet open fairways, great conditions of greens, fairways, rough etc... The support staff is extremely friendly, organized and well informed.
Thank you so much for the great review. We are glad to know you enjoyed yourself and that you plan to return!
Thank you so much for the 5 star rating and we look forward to seeing you soon.
Premium course and sweet HOT DEAL!
This course is in amazing shape and we practically had the whole course to ourselves. Greens are quick and true and weather was perfect. Found a mid day HOT DEAL that was a super nice price.
It's always great to read a wonderful review like this! Thank you for taking the time to share your experience and we look forward to your next round!
