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.

Old made new

Played a few years ago (a cow pasture w/ tree roots) Now, new greens (fast & true). Fairways still bare this time of year but looking forward to another round later this Spring.

"hot deal" was a super value

The greens are coming through the winter in great shape and there was plenty of fresh sand in the sand traps (which I frequented often). Everyone was friendly and the "hot deal" was a super value.

Better than I expected

Played the south - North combination, the Greens on the south were in fact the best I played during my golf vacation, the North greens were also good but the south greens were more recently maintained.

Greens true and fast

Booked the round on GolfNow for $29 - great value. I'm a a Long time Fernandina resident and have been disappointed how the courses were let go but it appears they're heading in the right direction.

Getting Better

First time back in 2 years and was happy to see the progress all around the course. Some areas had been opened up around the greens and in other dense areas to make the course more Park-like. Fairways and Tee boxes were in good shape. Greens were true and extremely fast due to no over-seeding. The South Course was very nice with all the changes. Pace of play was excellent even on a holiday. Would recommend to all levels.

Great Value

My wife and I (28 & !8 hcp respectively) play a lot of golf. This operation was a very nice surprise. The facilities are clean, in good repair, and well cared for. The course was in good shape considering it was mid February. Greens were excellent. Fairways were overseeded. We played in 3 hours. We both considered that we got our money's worth - and then some.

Rough around the edges

Greens on The south course are as good as any I have played . Unfortunately ,I have a hard time saying anything else positive . The starter was in a panic and behind as they have never had as many people on a Thurs . Gas carts are brutal for noise . The fairways are over seeded and pretty good but anywhere off the fairway is basically dirt .--- guess it is winter and probably should expect the conditions we experienced . They are redoing the greens on the west course and if they turn out as good as the south , it will be great . On the west course the holes are very repetitive and you get the feeling you had already played the hole you were on . Many of the tees are dirt and winter weeds .i think the price is attractive but that is about it .

Good Value on the Island

Because this is a municipal course, it is less well maintained than the private courses on Amelia Island. But the value for the price is there, it's relatively easy to get a tee time, and the staff is courteous.

I have played this course for many years and had seen a decline in course conditions over the last few years. HOWEVER, this time the course was in the best shape I've seen it in in quite some time. The new greens on the South course are starting to mature and were in great shape.

The course greens are in excellent shape

It's an old course and worn around the edges. The fairways are oak lined making it difficult to maintain the grass and the f/w needs weed control. Overall it's a good value for the money
