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.

Nice layout, a fair test of golf.

The only problem is "no GPS" on the golf carts. Spent to much time looking for sprinkler heads! Also, the price is a little high.

Play the right set of tees for your game and you'll enjoy it.

I played the East Course from the blues and enjoyed the challenge. You need to make good shots and be able to read the greens. You can spray it a bit but if you're a big slicer or hooker there's trouble to be had. The grass was different from New England where I'm from so it took a few holes to get used to it and ended up with an 84 which is on the lower end of my typical range. The greens were running just right and the rough was deep enough to make you want to be in the fairway if you had a long approach shot. However it wasn't so deep you had to look to find your ball and all you can do is punch out to the fairway with a wedge. The staff was friendly and helpful. I'll go back again next time I'm in this area for sure to play this enjoyable course.

Great course, Great shape

Golfed both the east and the west courses. Couldn't have asked for better conditions. Greens were true, fairways even better. Great value on hot deal. Would recommend this course if your not from the area would say it one of the best around.
