Rating 71.8

Fernandina Beach Golf Club is home to three distinct nines, the North, South, and West that make up three different 18-hole combinations. This 27-hole facility boasts a unique configuration on each of the nines for a truly diverse golfing experience. The North/West course at Fernandina Beach Golf Club combines the longest nine, the West, and the shortest nine, the North. The North nine features undulating greens and water hazards but the generous, wide-open fairways of the West nine make the golf course accessible to players of all skill levels. Native foliage in addition to towering oaks and pines throughout the course allow for a scenic escape in addition to an excellent round.

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.

Perfect weather
Used cart

Carts only allowed on North course

I arrived for my tee time and was told that the South course was closed and the West was walking only so if I wanted to play 18 holes with a cart I needed to play the North course twice. The first time around was actually quite nice as the pace of play was good. When I went to play my second nine it was quite backed up and I quit after 6 holes.

First Time Playing

Good time for a first time

This course is well layed out and fun. Some challenging holes with narrow fairways surrounded by trees and water. I played the North/South courses as the West course was closed due to the hurricane that recently came through. The only issue I had was when I checked in for my T Time no one mentioned the men’s group that was playing earlier that morning. The pace of play was extremely slow. 7-10 minutes per hole starting on the second hole on the front nine. The staff were very courteous, the Marshall was out and trying to speed it up, and the bloody Mary’s were on point. Definitely will be back again.

Improvements are showing

Played this course for over 30 years. This course used to be one of the better courses in North Florida. I always liked the layout and value. Over the last decade the course had fallen in disrepair. The greens and fairways were patchy and in bad shape. Now, they have gotten the greens in much better shape and the fairways have filled in. I played West and South today and was extremely happy with the progress made.
