About
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.

My first round in Florida ... never going back to PA :P Photo submitted by Eric3413 on 08/06/2013
Fun challenge
Everything is as good as it can be. Staff was great.
Much better
Playing for ten years there. Green’s are very good as well as fairways. Best I have seen
Royal St Augustine
Great layout but course in rough shape. Tee boxes were bare, greens rough and uncut. Our cart kept dieing. Told check in and were told new ones are on the way. Supposedly 4 weeks from 2/2/25. Friendly staff.
Fun Day
Greens are in good shape, tee boxes are in serious need of help, bunkers are well maintained, and fairways are typical for this time of year. Hooked up with 2 other singles and had fun time.
Much improved
I stopped playing here because it is usually so bad. But I decided to give it another try last weekend. Wow. I'm gad I did. It's still no where close to being perfect, but it is much improved. Its in much better shape than some other nearby courses that charge a lot more and have a much better reputation.
Course layout is very good and reasonably challenging and green condition is good
However TEE bog management is poor.,bear glass area..
Pacce of play; I was unlucky to follow tthe terrible foursome who doesn't have any golf etiquette. It might take 6 hours to finish the day
Completely Disappointing
This could be such a good course. The layout is interesting and fun. That's where it ends. I keep hearing the course is improving, so I go back and give it another try. I think it gets worse everytime. $47 for the course in this condition is robbery. St. Augustine is in such need for a good course near the downtown area, and this course and The Shores continue to fail. Thankfully we have the county course, or we have to travel.
The course was in fair condition. The Greens were ok but many of the tee boxes you were teeing off in just dirt.
I know the fairway grass is in winter condition but areas did not have much grass.
The cost are in line with similar courses in the area but will not be the case if conditions continue to deteriorate.
Interesting Track
First off I think in order to give this course a good review you must play it more than once. It is a shot makers course and very tight fairways. So if you like target golf this may be a course worth seeing. Conditions were ok greens rolled true.
