Rating 72.6

Just north of the Jacksonville Airport, Fernandina Beach Golf Club offers three 18-hole courses that are conveniently located within distance of both Jacksonville and the beach. There are three distinct nines at the club that create three different 18-hole combinations. The West/South combination is the tournament course at Fernandina Beach Golf Club. The West nine is long and there is a challenging par-5 that is one of the most difficult on the golf course. The South nine features an abundance of trees and water hazards, putting a heavier emphasis on accuracy rather than distance in scoring well. The golf course is also considered a perfect example of scenic Florida golf with native foliage and wildlife throughout.

Course is greatly improved

I've been playing this course for 25+ years and this is the best shape it has ever been in. The new managers are doing a great job. The fairways have good grass and the greens are smooth and true. The look and feel of the grounds and the facility is much better too. The food and drink choices have been improved. I definitely recommend playing here.

The place is like a goat pasture.

Cannot say anything good about the condition of the course. The layout is pretty nice but the everything else is in very bad shape, Greens are bumpy, fairways are overgrown, rough is not well maintained, some of the tee boxes have no grass at all
Staff was nice, and got paired with two nice players so enjoyed the company

Good bang for your buck

Nice course just needs maintaining better. Sand traps needed work and lots of divots in fairways. Overall not bad at all just needs some work.
