About
Tucked away in the beautiful Ft. Caroline area near Jacksonville, Hidden Hills Country Club stands on a historic battleground that witnessed the fierce struggles between France and Spain and continued into golf history with searing competition during the heyday of the Greater Jacksonville Open.
The 6,892-yard private golf course, built in 1966 on an ancient sand dune, was redesigned by Arnold Palmer in 1986. Palmer's creativity helped create a championship-caliber golf course unmatched in natural beauty that makes excellent use of rare hilly terrain to create a unique Florida golf challenge. The fairways are lined with majestic pines and stately oaks, and the unpredictable greens have helped Hidden Hills gain the reputation of being one of the most challenging courses in North Florida.
Sharp doglegs, strategic placement of water hazards and putting surfaces that are mostly elevated serve up a mighty test for the low handicapper. Approaches are narrow and many of Hidden Hills Country Club's greens are well bunkered.
Hidden Hills has a rating of 74.0 from the championship tees, and the slope rating is 136.

wow
every two weeks the price is going up and up and gonna stay away. no explanation
Had a great time
Got to tee off 10 minutes early with no one in front or behind us. The starter and beverage cart employees were very helpful and polite. The course was in great shape and greens were tricky. Had a great day playing Hidden Hills and we will definitely return.

Another Good Palmer Design
I routinely play Hidden Hills when visiting Jacksonville. It’s a good course for a good price. It was originally an Arnold Palmer design that I hear has undergone some changes. I always seem to enjoy Arnie’s designs. They tend to be fun, reasonably challenging, and pleasing to the eye. Hidden Hills is no different in this respect. We played in high winds today, so the course beat us up a bit more than usual. I’d recommend this course to anyone.
