Jacksonville Beach Golf Club

I live in Jax beach and have played this course in the past. It was probably my 3rd or 4th choice behind Oak Bridge and Windsor, but after the renovations this will be my primary choice. Greens were impeccable, everything was well maintained and organized. They did a great job fixing up this local course,

Tees, fairways, greens all in great shape. Unfortunately the price hikes here have us only playing when hot deals are out there. Only course we've played that charges extra for carts On weekends Jax now charges the riding rate even if you're walking !

Only negative is we were first two off the tee and started on 10 due to maintenance. That was perfectly fine except when we made the turn they’d started sending peeps off the 1st tee slowing us bigtime

Course was redone in 2018 with all new greens and a few redesigned holes. This was the fifth or sixth time I have played it since it reopened last November. The changes have made this a real gem at the beaches. It is s great value for money and is also a great walkers course for those who like to walk. I played nine holes on a Friday afternoon and it took almost 2 and 1/2 hours, which is more than usual but I attribute that to it being a Friday afternoon with beautiful weather. I will definitely continue to play this course on a regular basis. Just be advised that there are no senior rates on Friday thru Sunday, and walking is only allowed after noon on those days.

First of al there was nobody at the bag drop when we drove up, we had to wait so we unloaded our clubs ourselves. Then we went to check in and the young girl looks at us and said what do you want? (there were three men just standing behind the counter). I said we are checking in and she rattled off amount due $70 something dollars and I said we all ready paid on golf now. She said I see that here you are all set but I got no receipt for the starter. She said you don’t need one. The starter knows you are here.

Next to the golf course, the sand traps were in very good shape and the greens were very fast and hard. If you landed on the green the ball took a big bounce and bounced off the green—Like hitting the cart path. The fairways were in tough shape very little grass if any to hit off of.

This was the third time playing here since it reopened this year and were disappointed in the welcome we received for the money we paid..When we came off the course the cart attendant told us they were to busy to unload clubs from our vehicles..

Not sure why the greens are so hard and fast on a course that's usually windy. Everything had to be landed on the front of the green if you wanted to try to keep it on. We did enjoy the number of shorter par fours.

With the new renovations Jacksonville Beach GC is back and better than ever! Greens are great!

redesigned course much nicer than it was. Greens bunkers playability all better, carts are new too. Fairways still need some improvement..lots of sparse grass, hitting off dirt alot. But overall a fun course to play. @ 4somes let us play through so we (wife and I) were done in just over 3 hours!

The course improvements were well done. The greens are fast and true and the bunkers are in great shape.

Loved the changes to the course, the greens are great ! Bunkers have good sand in them to. Played Friday and Saturday morning and had a issue with the cart girl both days. Getting a cup of ice was like a big no no! Then on Saturday tee time was 7:30 didn’t see the cart person tell 11:30.. wow!!!

They did a great job refurbishing the course!

Greens are challenging and in wonderful condition.

New carts with GPS are top notch!

When I review a course, I try to take into account the overall experience. Jacksonville Beach hit the mark with the re-model, good conditioning, and excellent greens. If reviews were solely based on the the course itself, this would be a four star review.

However, the pace of play ruined the experience and in my opinion is what is wrong with the game of golf right now. Tee time was 11a on a Monday. 5 hour round of golf, and it was the group in front of us, which was a fivesome, holding up the course.

After waiting for many minutes for each shot, we finally made the turn at 2.5 hours. We asked if we could play through on #10, and the group denied our request. We asked the ranger if he could help us out, and he would not and mentioned they were on pace.

We finally finished the round at 4p. A five hour round, and the course staff not willing to help enforce a decent pace of play.

It's difficult to recommend a good course when the staff doesn't recognize that a 5 hour round isn't acceptable.

Really like the course remodel though!

It began raining on about the 4th hope I played and they only provided us with a 9 hole rain check. I think that’s absolutely ridiculous, considering what I paid to play out there.

Starting with a reprimand for being walk-ons our outing started off less than desirable and amazingly got worse ! Using Jax Beach Golf's own website we could see plenty of open Tee times so not much logic used.

We then noticed a sign showing major price increases and once again logic was in short supply. Too many categories to post here but for example their members rate for walking 9 holes is going from $8 to $14 ! 75% !!

It was argued that was still a good deal but really ? Windy Harbor is very comparable and its $11 there - INCLUDING a cart !

Yes I was one who was a sucker and bought a membership. It was pointed out that I'd easily make back the $175 but not likely now as I'm not in agreement that $14 to walk 9 is a great deal.

I will add that this increase comes just 3 months after they took our cash for an annual membership - completely dishonest to raise rates 75%. In theory I guess they could've pulled that a week after we paid so I guess I'm lucky ? ;-)

Maybe others will balk at the new prices making the course faster so there's that but in my opinion they should be grateful for their clientele and remember the not so old days when no one wanted to play there

Terrible staff and customer service. Pro shop turned me away saying the course was closed at 5pm. Usually liked this course but will not come back nor will I recommend it to anybody.

They did a great job on the renovation of the course. My only suggestion would be to place sand holders on the par three holes so people are more likely to fill in divots.
