The Oak Bridge Club (formerly known as Ponte Vedra Golf & Country Club at Sawgrass) in the heart of Ponte Vedra Beach, Fla., sits adjacent to the famed Players Stadium Course at TPC Sawgrass. The 6,413-yard, par-70 Arnold Palmer design features water on every hole, tree-lined fairways and undulating greens. Oak Bridge favors accuracy and strategy over power and distance. New owners have upgraded the clubhouse and introduced a new restaurant, The 3 Palms Grille. A tennis center is home to 10 Har-Tru clay courts.

Dead and gone

Showed up one day to find all fairways were toasty brown. They let them die so the owner could build some condos. Too bad - it was an interesting course when maintained. Sure he’s talking about a range plus 12 holes of par 3s but really ? 12 holes ? Not interested

Sad

This course is in bad shape

Brown fairways, slow patchy greens , beaten up tee boxes. Such a shame to see this course in this shape.

Also the only course in Jacksonville that has no front middle back pin markings

slipping again

Driving range is great, Fairways are fine, tee boxes doable if you move your ball forward or to the side, greens appear ok but fungus may be an issue. The traps unfortunately are unraked by the crew and unbelievably they had removed all the rakes so you can't groom after your shots !

I really don't understand that or the fact that all ball washers have been removed.

Kind of disappointed given conditions were decent just 2 weeks ago.

Tee Boxes need some TLC, Fairways in Good condition, Rough is RUFF, Greens are good for this time of year, could be faster/. Have played this track many times, and will be back to try and break 80! Cheers!!

Positives and negatives

Booked this course for 30 bucks. The area had taken a bunch of rain and the course wasn’t in too bad a shape considering. There was a lot of duck poop on the greens and they were a bit fuzzy, but definitely taken care of. Hole layouts were interesting and challenging.

The problems my group had were with the staff and clubhouse. We teed off at 1pm and made the turn at 3. We were hoping to be able to grab a hotdog or something quick, but we were told they were “all sound out” and could only eat at the sit down attached restaurant. We instead had to settle for peanuts and chips. Course is solid, but bring your own food just in case!!

pretty decent shape

My first round here. No bad spots on the greens but some of the tee boxes need work. Fairways were pretty consistent. Bunkers could use more sand. Likely will return. Go ahead and give it a try.

Wow what a change

I cant believe what they have done to this course over the last year. Greens are great, fairways are great and tee boxes are pretty good. This place was weeds and dirt a year ago and now I would play here every week. Still a little rough around the edges, could use a weed eater and some sand in the traps, but otherwise WOW!

Wow what a change

I just cant get over what they have done to this place. One year ago it was nothing but dirt and weeds. We tee'd off today at 12 and I was shocked at how good the course conditions were. There were a couple boxes that were sparse grass and dirt, but the majority were grass. And every single green was full of grass and rolling nicely. Every fairway was grass as well. The place could use a weed eater in quite a few places but the parts of the course that matter were really good. No WAY would I have recommended this course to anyone a year ago and after today I hole heartily recommend you go play here.

some improvement

Tee boxes are rough but greens better than last month.

Traps a mixed bag of raked and not

As for recommending to a friend - I clicked yes but honestly it depends on which friend ! Many wouldn't be pleased with the conditions but others who like a bargain would like Oakbridge with a hot deal.
