Carved from a forest of pines and winding through wetlands and lagoons, St. Johns Golf & Country Club offers a scenic 18-hole round located between St. Augustine and Jacksonville. The course features tree-lined fairways and large, fast greens. There is also the occasional two-tiered green to look out for. Water hazards come into play throughout and there are several well-placed bunkers. Depending on how the wind is blowing, the course can range from being gentle to very demanding. Six sets of tees make the course accessible to players of all skill levels. In addition to the course, St. Johns Golf & Country Club also offers extensive practice facilities including a 10,000 sq. foot putting green, chipping green, and a double-sided driving range.

Pace of Play

Play 12 holes in 3 1/2 hours. Marshall was on the course but not doing anything. Had to leave to catch a flight and could not be refunded because we booked through a third-party

Nice course, lack of communication

Great course to play, nice layout. However, no one informed us that there was a high school competition going on, no golf carts available.

We were there and checked in 15-20 minutes before tee time but I guess the young lady who checked me in failed to communicate that to the starter or other staff. After ten minutes past my tee time, a cart was made available to me but my wife and daughter had to wait even longer for a cart.

I drove out ahead to check in with starter and inform him what had transpired. He mentioned that we missed our tee time. How? I asked. He called the clubhouse and asked someone of our whereabouts and they responded that they had no idea, even after we had checked in, wtf!

So we were inconvenienced with a failure to take account for a high school tournament which caused to have no carts available, and because of that missed our tee time and put others ahead of us. Not right whatsoever!

Couldn't have been slower

It's been 5 hours and we are the 15th hole. There is a junior tournament on the course in front of us, and it will be a 5 hour and 50 min round. We are waiting 10 min every tee shot. Course doesn't seem to care about people who paid good money to play golf. We have seen 4 groups quit, and two guys in our group quit. Slowest round of golf I've ever played.

Great fun

This a very challenging course but is fair. There are ample landing areas and large fast greens. It is a beautiful layout with friendly staff members. Hats off to the grounds crew that had the course in perfect condition. A perfect destination for a golf trip.

Very good all around

Fast greens.. Course in very good shape.. Sides tend to slope off toward hazards and jungle so keep it close to the fairway.. Rough looks tight but it is deep and fluffy.. You can walk right past your ball and not see it.

Nice Tract

Very friendly and helpful staff. Nice course layout with plenty of water, challenging rough, tight fairways, lightning fast greens. Pace was a little slow, but the course was busy. I’d play this tract again on my next visit to the area.
