Lake Jovita Golf & Country Club offers two championship courses, the North and the South. Both courses sprawl across a verdant landscape covered with mature oaks, lakes, and ponds. The terrain is unusually hilly for Florida. Like the South Course, the North Course is undulating with a lot of movement but it has even greater elevation changes than the South, which provides scenic views of the surrounding community. On a clear day, golfers can see at least five miles to the northeast from the second tee. The North has a more modern layout that plays a little bit longer. Although the golf courses are nestled amongst rolling hills, Lake Jovita is situated just 30 minutes north of Tampa. The unique hilliness of the courses and their convenient location have made them some of Florida's must-play courses.

Don't try to pay for an extra cart.

A member of our foursome had his young son with him who doesn't play and was just going to ride because there was no school. We show up to the starter with 3 carts and he sends them back to the pro shop saying we should only have 2 carts and he needed to pay the 33$ cart fee, that's all fine. Him and his son go back to pay for a 3rd cart but the grumpy power tripping old man at the counter wouldn't let them and they both ended up going home not wanting to have his son squeezed in the middle 3 to a cart on this hot day. All of us prepaid through golf now so we're stuck having to leave him behind, and he received no refund from the course for his round. This ruined a planned day for all of us involved, we could of easily went to a course closer to home... The starter said he would find us on the course to make things right because 'this was all a misunderstanding' but nothing was done. This will be our last round after having played here for years and recommended this course to countless other golfers. Very disappointed in how the shop and starter handled this situation.

Great experience! Great staff. Too bad some golfers to see fit to take the traps when they're in them! A course ranger could help ? Over all great course! We will be back to explore the South Course...

Great Course

Really enjoyed the course. .

Pace was perfect. No one in front and no one pushing us. Course was in good shape for the winter. Rough was a little dry but fairways were green. Greens where good but very fast.

Everything was great!

We played the North course and it was in top shape. Minimally slow play but to be expected in February.

Fun and interesting course. Lots of variety. Course was in good condition, except for bunkers. Hopefully a bunker renovation is planned soon. Hardly any sand left…
