Located in Florida’s oldest city, Royal St. Augustine Golf & Country Club offers a glimpse of the area’s lush foliage and native marshlands. The course has a visually interesting layout with elevated, sprawling greens and a variety of bunker shapes and sizes. The moguled fairways and sandy waste areas are two other distinguishing features of the course. It is a tight course with large greens and gentle undulations. The layout provides a “target-golf” experience that puts a premium on accuracy and distance control. The numerous bends in the course in combination with the blustery winds also makes proper club selection very important.

Decent

Xourse was in decent shape considering the storms. Bunkers were not great dropping outside them but I’m sure they’ll come back with some effort . Greens were slow and abit shaggy. Touch was thick. You’d lose balls off the fairway. Abit brutal for most golfers and alowwed the round considerably. Again give them time to catch up and should be good in a month. Overall a nice course

Fun Design but …

This course has a very good design and layout but it is not being maintained. The traps were in terrible shape and the rough was in bad need of mowing. With some TLC this would be a very good course but right now it’s hard to recommend.

Stay in the middle of the fairway.

Course is tough. Stay in the middle of the fairway because if you hit the edges say goodbye ball.

Golfing like a Royal

Took a left instead of going right to get to the 15th hole but we had the course to ourselves and so we got a preview of the last three holes and took note of the water protecting the 16th hole green on our way backwards to 15. :D

Course was in good shape, but front nine was closed. Greens were slow; you had to really strike the ball to get it to the hole. Staff was very friendly, charging me for 9 hole rate since front nine was closed.
