Royal St. Augustine Golf and Country Club

I thought the course had improved conditions from previous time there. Had a blast.

Nice course with excellent tee boxes, fairways and greens. Staff was great. That’s the good news. Bad news? If you don’t hit it straight, don’t play here. I’m a 16 handicap so I’m normally in the 89-95 range. I probably lost 15 balls, some of which were actually good shots. Everything angles towards the OB. The jungle that’s always 10 yards off the fairway claims your ball. If it’s not the jungle, it’s the water (16 of 18 holes). I would have to play the round of my life to break 90 here. I would’ve been better off hitting a 9 iron off every tee box. If you like tight, unforgiving courses, this is your place.

I thought the course was in great shape. For a community course, it beat our expectations. Only drawback was lunch only had hotdog available or premade sandwiches at the clubhouse. But TBH we weren’t there for the hotdogs

Great location 3 miles from downtown. Much improved from when I played here last year but still a long way to go. Still a good deal for $37 for 9 holes 5 minutes from my house. I will return because of how close I am, but don’t go out of your way to play here until they do more improvements.

I have played this course several times over the past 20 years… I have always had a fun time at this course. I live in Georgia and we have always targeted St Augustine for our summer vacation. Although not for necessarily for golf, but this course is a fun layout, especially the par fives. The greens had recently been punched, but they actually rolled very good and Management has done a good job of keeping this course in good shape. I look forward to good times on this course in the near future. Hit them straight!

Course only had 9 holes open and it was not posted on app when I was booking, I feel I should be reimbursed my $66 plus my credits so I can book another course. Course was in terrible shape compared to last time I played this place back 2-3 months ago

Great job to the team at the Royal! Amazing course.

It would have been very helpful to have known in advance that the course has a standing Thursday afternoon scramble which takes precedence over all other tee times. I was unable to play the front 9 due to this. I would have made a reservation elsewhere had I known this was the case.

This course is very tight, sloped fairways that repeatedly feed to water or tree lines. The short fairways are extremely hard and let the ball run but usually towards troublesome areas. The areas that have no grass are so prevalent it puts this course into the category of “ cow pasture “ for the money very overpriced track. So many better options in the area and cheaper. Save the money and keep looking, Imho

Pleasantly surprised. Google reviews were mixed but my personal experience was positive. The condition and layout of the course was very nice. The greens were a little shaggy but they played pretty true. I found the value to be good and will go back to play again.
