Lake Jovita Golf & Country Club - South Course
Rating Snapshot
About
Although it is tucked away among rolling green hills and mature oaks, Lake Jovita Country Golf & Country Club is conveniently less than 30 minutes north of Tampa. The club offers two championship golf courses, the North and the South. The South Course, the original track at Lake Jovita, has a more traditional design than the other course. It features generous fairways and velvety-smooth greens. The layout weaves through lakes and ponds that into play on several holes. The course was built to fully utilize the hilly terrain, incorporating a variety of elevation changes throughout. The par-5 11th hole even features a 94-foot drop from tee to green, which is the largest natural elevation change in the entire state. It is one of Florida's "must-play" courses

Lines on the greens after being punched. Difficult to putt with these grabbing the ball as it rolled into them. Photo submitted by bvmagic on 05/30/2016
South course
Played south today what a wonderful layout. Some greens needed a little work but enjoyed this course more than north. However north is awesome too. Only issue for me was the walking to and from the cart on certain greens.. some of the cart signs put u out there super far to walk when going to putt..
South Jovita
The course is in great condition, greens a little slow for Jovita standards. Still quick, and fun. Can not beat it for $40.
North course in better shape than south
Played South Course at 736am. Greens were in good shape, but course could have been better. Drainage and clean of bunkers was not done, lots of clumps on fairways from cut grass, the holes were not cut well and had lots of ragged edges. Damage on portions of some greens, but overall rolling very well. I think with some minor attention to detail the South course would play as well as the North Course.
Amazing views all the way around this course. Very challenging but worth the money. If you didnt know you were in Florida you couldnt tell.
This course is in outstanding condition!
An enjoyable day of golf. Only thing missing was TV cameras and patrons.
Go play this course.
Pricey
Not a 60.00 course. Course conditions were disappointing.
Excellent condition
A day if golf that was enjoyable and relaxing. Playing on Tour Condition course was Fun.
Customer service was Great!
Recommend playing.
Awesome course
Much more challenging than the north course but just as beautiful if not more than the north course. Range is included in golf price and pro shop, snack shop, and amenities are great. 10/10 would recommend.
Great course
Excellent shape, new carts w/gps. The only issue was no Cart service, no water stations at tee boxes and the snack bar closed early. It was a Monday but considering the cost to play they should have some amenities.
Great day
Course was in good condition and greens rolled great.
Player player
You got to play this one. The North and South course are awesome.
