Lake Jovita Golf & Country Club - North Course

First time there. Will definitely play there again. Had a great deal from GolfNow. Aerification gave the deal but greens were in great shape.. Must stay in fairways. Only played 13 holes, heat was unbearable. Only saw cart girl once and she was out of stuff we wanted.

Bunkers are compacted and no fluff. Otherwise nice track.

Excellent course and in great condition. Greens were outstanding and rolled true. Really challenging as well.

Course is a real good test. Golfer needs to use all clubs to get around this well conditioned course. Super greens. I’ll be back.

Course was mostly in great shape. The greens were in great shape for the most part except a few small areas which seems be unavoidable this time of year. With all the rain, a bunch of holes were cart path only which became a pain in the later part of the round when the heat became brutal and slowed play down a bit.

This is a great golf course. Fairways are gorgeous, greens are fast and excellent, the views are wonderful. There is nothing not to like about this course. If you haven't been here, you're missing a great experience. Excellent conditions lead to better scores.

The only reason I didn't give them 5 stars is because I haven't yet played Pebble Beach, Augusta, and a lot of other courses that the pros consider great. I'm guessing those are 5 stars. As a non-member, I will play here as often as I can.

This is a beautiful golf course. Lots of wonderful vistas, even the neighborhood is great looking. Course was in excellent condition, greens rolled really well and were fairly fast. Lots of elevation changes makes for an interesting round.

The only criticism is that most of the traps are washed out. I assume they are waiting for the rainy season to end before restoring them. But I found that to me a minor problem.

Will definitely be back. Highly recommended.

I played Lake Jovita North for the first time this week. Have been playing golf all over FL for 15 years and wish I would of had played sooner. I’ll definitely be coming back for the South course.

The North course is challenging if you miss fairways. There are a bunch of scoring opportunities if you can hit your spots. There is some great Florida style elevation changes too which are an added feature I really enjoyed (its Florida, elevation changes aren’t too common).

Plus the course has a full men’s/women’s locker room. I was able to hit the showers before heading to a business event. And I can’t forget to mention the food. I had the buffalo chicken wrap and coleslaw, which exceeded my expectations. That may be all I ever order when I make it back.

Plus, plus there are villa options if you want to stay and play. I travel into the area often and would prefer to bunk in a villa w/ some tee times.

All in all Lake Jovita is a must play and a track I’ll recommend to everyone I know!

Greens in great shape. Starter shared limited info ( we figured out pin positions ourselves). Layout takes a couple of rounds to figure out. Pace of play was great - under four hours. Bunkers a plenty.

This was our 3rd time to Lake Jovita and was looking forward to a great day of golf! My wife and I had an 11:30 tee off time and was paired with a single. The pace of play was horrible, It took 2:45 just to play 10 holes, so we decided to go home. Life is too short, and we will not be back and recommend this course to anyone

This was such a great course, lot of rain lately so there were a lot of cart path only holes, not bad until you get behind a very slow foursome!!

Great course. wide Fairways. Some carries are a liittle long for a older golfer from whites. Big greens. definately not your basic Florida golf outing

The course was a pretty good course except would have liked to know that the greens were just punched. Also the bunkers were full of water. Lost 2 balls in the bunkers cause of water. The staff wasn’t the friendliest except the starter.

Fairways were goox.We knew the greens were punched.

I played the North Course. the fairways and greens were absolutely superb the layout on the front 9 was reasonable, hilly, with well-placed sand bunkers, not overly challenging from the white tees if you can hit your drive over 200 yards. The Back Nine was harder. Rolling Hills with tighter Fairways with for 5 Tee shots where 160 airborne shots was called for to get over the hazard and into the Fairway. With difficult trees and water and sand bunkers well placed. However the course as a whole was excellent, I am 74 years old my drive go around 160 to 170 so I had to be very careful where I hit the ball. I could play this course everyday and love it highly recommend Lake Jovita Golf and Country.

Course is fine but experience is terrible. Worst starter ever. Brought 12 golfers on vacation and wasn’t welcomed at all. No one at bag unload or in pro shop spoke. Starter was a jerk and clearly didn’t want us there. If you want to be private then be private. Play world woods and tpc instead. They actually want you there. Starter here needs to take lessons from Mark at TPC.

We picked a good time to play at a reasonable rate.The fairways on the north course were good.The greens were also good.Around the greens still has a significant amount of various weeds that interfere with play. The bunkers are no better or worse than usual.The bunker edges look uneven and some are still in washout mode from the hurricane rain 8 months ago.The faded green color of the grasses differs from several other courses I have played recently.Maintenance apparently has limitations on what can be spent on two fine golf courses worthy of better upkeep.If the owners are not spending 29% of revenue on maintenance they are short changing what could be among the best facilities in Florida.
