South/North at Fernandina Beach Golf Club
About
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.

Much Improved
You can tell that they have done work on the course. It is much improved and getting better.🙂🙂
Needs tlc
This course is an old tradition in this community. Being new to the area, this course has a great opportunity to become an incredible club, just needs foresight and a bunch of TLC...great layout
Good Value
Course not in great condition. Some good some bad greens. Good layout. Great value for the money.
Fernandina Beach should be ashame
I came to Fernandina about 14 years ago and this was the premiere public course in North Florida. The course always had the best greens of all the courses on the island.Today was a true disappointment. The course was in terrible condition. Someone has not been paying attention to the condition of the course. The city has truly allowed the course to grow into terrible condition. It is obvious that Fernandina Beach and it’s leadership no longer value the gem that they once had. It is truly a shame and the leadership of the city has allowed the course to get in this condition.
The city of Fernandina either doesn’t read the reviews of the golf course or doesn’t care. I’ve lived in Fernandina/Yulee most of my life. This course 30 years ago was a great course. I haven’t played here in sometime but remember the course was in bad shape then. It is 10 times worse. Fairway are mainly dirt, greens are terribly patchy and the bunkers are inconsistent. City of Fernandina, please put funds in the budget to fix this course! It is a awesome layout and super friendly staff. There are to many courses within 30-40 mile radius that is cheaper to play and much better quality!
Look elsewhere.
Staff is friendly and helpful, unfortunately the course overall is in rough shape. The fairways are non existent, bare spots and weeds clearly out number grass areas. Most tee boxes are just OK. Greens are very inconsistent. Looks like they have shut down the west course (1 of 3 sides) due to conditions. Btw the carts are do for an upgraded.
Lawn treatments and water most be prohibited in this area!
Some strong course mgt would make this fun to play as the course has a ton of potential.
If you're looking just to get some swing practice in then you will be fine here, otherwise look elsewhere.
Low maintenance levels
Being a muni course close to a fair number of people gets this course a fair number of golfers judging the amount of folks out. The greens are suffering from either some disease repair or water stress. The super needs to get tee boxes and greens up to snuff to get a players worth even at $51 a round. Even the majority of the West and North course fairways had more weeds than contiguous grass to hit off of. Sand traps were 3 different types of sand and different depths⅕ of sand on top of hard soil. And I was in a lot of traps, and I'm a good sand player.
Great layout and price
Fairways are thin, greens improving. Long course. Great value with hot deal pricing.
Goat ranch
I wouldn’t graze my cattle on this course! The greens are severely damaged, 2 of the 9 tee boxes on the South Course are closed along with the fairways of those holes.
The course is absolutely TERRIBLE!!!
The fairways on all 27 holes are severely damaged. There patches of weeds and and bald spots on which your well hit drive will land.
While you may hit a great iron into a green, you’ll with great certainty putt through some damaged area of the green.
This golf course is desperate and has no shame nor dignity to remain open and take golfers’ money for what we get in return. Shame! Shame! Shame!
Course conditions Improving a little every time I play !
Played the West and North course.
Much more enjoyable than the South Course.
Do not play here
Fairways were weeds. Sand traps or dirt not sand Greens were black dirt, pretty much no grass on them. Not a pleasant round of cough.
Municipal Course
Easy accessible local course. Needs attention to most areas. Enjoyed my round
Poor Course Conditions
This course has 3 nines, north, south and west. I played North followed by West. The tee boxes were in good condition, the fairways were terrible and the greens just slightly better. The West 9 was a little better then North but not much. Didn’t play South but I was told it is worse than North and West.
Too bad, a beautiful location. With a little TLC and some irrigation it could be a very nice course.
Needs maintenance
Course seems to lack sufficient staff and resources to maintain it to a reasonable standard. No starter most days. No marshalls to keep play moving. Traps lack sand( only thin layer. ) Quite a few fairways lack complete grass cover( bump the ball for any type of lie. Nice staff
