Par 71
Length 6420 yards
Slope 136
Rating 71.6

Since the opening of Bent Creek Golf Course in 1989, the 6,420-yard, par-71 course has provided a challenging golf experience for residents of Northeast Florida and visitors alike.

Crafted by renowned architect Bobby Weed with consulting services by Mark McCumber, Bent Creek's meandering terrain takes golfers through a certified Audubon Cooperative Sanctuary, towering pines and alongside creeks and swales. The championship layout boasts Bermuda grass greens, plush fairways and a state-of-the-art lighted practice facility - home of the Bent Creek Golf Academy.

From the back tees, Bent Creek carries a rating of 71.6 and a slope of 136. The challenge starts with the first hole, which measures 538 yards from the gold tees, just 20 yards short of No. 15, the longest hole on the golf course.

No carts

Tee time for 1:57. Checked in at 1:30 no carts. The 1:31 tee time still had no cart plus all the other tee times before us. Waited until 2:05 still had no cart and times ahead still were waiting as well.

At this point with back up happening we had no chance to finish.

This is a regular occurrence at this course… I would say they just need to hire some staff but management has no idea how to run a golf course.

I am a Long time customer who plays at bent creek very often through the frustrations but I will not even attempt to do so anymore until the management staff get a grip on how to manage the course.
