Lake Jovita Golf & Country Club - North Course

From the time the young man picked up my clubs as soon as I got out of the car till the time I left the 19 hole the word excellent discribe it all. If you have not played this course you have missed a truly amazing time. Should warn you the down hill putts take just a turning of the letters.

Our biggest disappointment was the staff. They were not very informative, friendly or helpful with golfers who had never played the course. We were given no direction as to where to start, had to go back in for balls for the range. Once we found the starter, it got better. He was friendly. Greens were excellent.

One of the best around the area. I brought a friend in from out of town and he really enjoyed it. Pace of play was pretty slow and cart with drinks would have been nice to see more often.

Very nice layout and enjoyed the course. Greens are faster than many of the other courses around but roll true. Quite a number of holes that are picturesque from the tees.

Only issue was it was the slowest round we've played in years. We were a threesome, had only saw a threesome in front of us and a twosome in front of them and it took 5 hours to play 18 holes.

Nice layout. There's room off the tee on the front 9, tightens for a few holes on the back. Greens have a lot of subtle movement, hard to see the little breaks. Overall in great condition. Try it.

Played as a twosome and under 3 1/2 hrs on a hot deal rate. Course and greens were in great shape, but sand traps were unkempt. Very little sand and most were not raked.

Overall a good day o golf on a almost private 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!!
