South at Fountains Country Club
Rating Snapshot
About
Located in Lake Worth, Fountains Country Club is part of a gated golf community. The club boasts three different 18-hole championship courses called the South, West, and North. In the 1970s, Robert Von Hagge and Bruce Devlin collaborated to design all three courses. They all have a classic design that showcases the traditions of Florida golf but each has a unique character and set of challenges. All of the golf courses have plenty of water but the South Course has water on nearly every hole. The course is mostly flat and wide-open but there is some subtle mounding as well as strategic bunkering to provide some challenges. It is a gentle enough layout for beginners though and there are also five sets of tees to make it even more accommodating.

terrible experience
booked a 1:34 tee time... take our receipts to the starter who tells us we'll probably get out closer to 2... at 2 we report back to the starter and he calls the 1:13 group to the first tee... at this point we would be able to get all 18 in before dark especially if this was any indication of what pace of play would be... we decide to go back to the pro shop to get a refund... lots of angry players in line for a refund and lots of angry members complaining about non members ruining course availability... but the course did look great...
Spectacular Greens…
What an opener to our golf trip. Course is in spectacular shape; especially the greens. They were unblemished, fast and pure. Kudos to the maintenance crew 👏🏽👏🏽.
Very slow on the front but we were behind an intercourse tournament.
Received range balls with our round and the practice area is very well maintained. I fortunately only mid to short irons allowed.
Great shape, horrible pace, overbooked
The course was in terrific shape. The greens were fast and smooth. The course was overbooked and the pace of play was the worst I've experienced. We teed off 20 minutes late because of the overbooked tee times and we're only able to get in 16 holes.
Bargain
Hot deal with a $10 of reward for $53. This time of year in SoFl you can’t play a decent course for under $100. Greens were fast and in really good condition. New carts also. Great hot deal.
Way too slow
Course is nice but layout is weird. They way over book and then don’t have a Marshall out there moving people along. Not worth the hassle.
Excellent shape and low price
Very courteous staff fast pace and in excellent condition
