Lake Jovita Golf & Country Club - South Course

Really nice course. Greenskeeper was mad at somebody, lots of tucked pins. And very fast with lots of movement. A real test in the wind. A challenging and really fun day.

Course was in nice shape. Greens were very fast but consistent. Carts are restricted near the greens more than most courses which meant lots more walking.

GREAT DAY LITTLE SLOW COURSE PRETTY FULL LOT OF PROPLE PLAYNG 1 PER CART. PLAYED WTH ONE OF MY BEST FREND FROM LUTZ, IS GAME STEPED UP WITH THOSE NEW PING IRONS WOODS AND BAG. BEST PART HE ONLY LOST 3 BALLS WAY DOWN FROM A SMALL BUCKET.

This is a very nice course ( along with the north course) that most golfers would enjoy playing it is in great shape and a joy to play

If you don’t like playing golf at Lake Jovita you should stop playing golf. Go find something else to do.

We played the North Course. For as dry as it has been here in central FL. the course was in fantastic condition. Fairways and greens were almost perfect.

There are a lot of inconsistent lies throughout the course - in the fairway, in the rough, on the tee boxes, and especially around the green complexes where consistent lies are crucial to make your up & downs.. Also despite the drought, and playing the afternoon on the day after less than .5 inches of rain, the fairways were a little muddy in a lot of places (half inch of rain ended early Mon AM, sunshine Mon & Tues, played Tues PM). From the other reviews I guess I was expecting better. Otherwise though it's an impressive club, great design, great challenge, visually delightful. The greens rolled true and at a good speed. In-cart GPS is great. Spray bottles of disinfectant at every tee is very thoughtful. Be prepared for side/down/uphill lies. I do want to play here again and would recommend it, My purpose of negative comments is for info to other golfers and constructive criticism to the club.

Fair ways were cut really short and the sand in the traps were very hard for the price of 76.00 not worth it

If you can't have good enjoyment playing golf at Lake Jovita then you just can't have fun anywhere. Great course layout. Great condition. Great elevation changes. Go have fun. Play Lake Jovita. Either course will do.

Enjoyed round on South course. Great conditions, unique layout.

Played the South course again. As usual, course is in excellent condition. Greens held shots and were fast.

For those who've never played it, this is a course in central Florida with "real" hills. (Not a couple of dump truck loads of dirt which are then called hills.) Very scenic...lots of people enjoy the views on this course.

Due to coronavirus time, no rakes in traps and a few other things. My rating of off course amenities is due to the restaurant closed for the time being.

Played the North course in the past and played South today. Rye was growing in well. Greens were about 3 weeks after Aerofication. Greens were firm, held well and rolled smooth. Layout is nice, we played through two groups as a twosome and enjoyed the round. Very nice condition. Would recommend. .

PLAYED HERE SEVERAL TMES N THE PAST ON THE NORTH COURSE,THS TME TRYED SOUTH. GOLF COURSE OUTSTANDNG FAIRWAYS,GREENS OUTSTANDNG. GREENS AT LEAST 10.5,PLAYED ALONE FAST ROUND GREAT TRACK, LOT OF UP AND DOWN FAIRWAYS AND TEE SHOTS, SEVERAL LARGE DROPS FROM THE TEE BOX 75 FT OR SO. GREAT TIME PERFECT WEATHER, GLAD I TOOK A SHOT AT THE ORGNAL SOUTH COURSE WLL PLAY AGAIN SOON, BOTH TRACKS FANTASTC

Great course with excellent conditions and layout. The problems are:

1). The golf carts are terrible. I used 3 carts on one round, the first being replaced twice. Brakes are terrible, steering is terrible and they are terribly water spotted......and that is on every round I have played this season.

2). They never have enough sand in the divot bottles (if they are even on the carts to start with). That means lots and lots of divots are not being filled. They MUST get with the program on this one if they want fairway divots filled.

These are complaints a course like this should not be dealing with.
