Course Highlights
Three distinct 9-hole layouts offer varied challenges, with consistently smooth greens and improving fairway conditions that reward accurate ball-striking. Exceptionally friendly staff and a brisk pace of play make this course an outstanding value for the area.

South/North is one of three golf courses at Fernandina Beach Golf Club. The facility is home to three distinct nines that form three different 18-hole combinations. Winding through thick forests of oaks and pines, Fernandina Beach Golf Club's South/North course offers a glimpse at native Florida wildlife. The South nine depends more on accuracy rather than distance while the north nine, the shortest in length of the three, features undulating greens. Water hazards also come into play throughout the golf course. Fernandina Beach's 27 unique holes are made even more appealing by the affordable rates and convenient proximity to Jacksonville and the beach.

No warning

There was no warning on Golf Now letting people know only one of the three nine holes were open. We paid full price for this and one of the tee boxes were closed for repair. This has been this way for months.

Not even worth the hot-deal price

Place is abysmal and I can only get upset at myself thinking it will get better, the few and far between rounds I've played there. Guy who checked us in at the pro shop was super rude, for whatever reason, and another twosome asked us if we received the same treatment. I dont believe theres a single flat tee box on the course. The South course was the only one open when we played (unbeknownst to us) and the tee box on 1 was closed. Waste of time, money and effort. Tried enjoying what we could but this course doesn't seem to have one redeeming feature. Play Amelia River down the road for a night and day difference

Pleasant Surprise

Course was in good shape - fairways fine - greens were slow but had just been punched so this was understandable- pace of play was fine - played 18 holes in @ 3 hours 20 minutes - enjoyable time

Not helpful for handicapped people

Course maintenance is improved and fairways and traps much better but greens are so long and fuzzy that makes it difficult to roll the ball

Late tee times

Don’t offer tee times at nearly 6pm if your employees are going to grumble at me for playing as many holes as I could while being back BEFORE he asked me to be.

Grass in the rough is TOO long

Overall, the course is good. There is one really big problem inmy mind.

If you miss the fairway, you lose your ball in the VERY LONG grass . I spent a lot of time looking for my ball when it should not have been so difficult to find it.

They need to cut the first rough cut a little lower.

The course does not honor pricing

The course is in poor condition. The staff was rude, and they refused to honor the prepaid pricing and demanded more money at check in.
